Alice In Chains - Man In The Box - Live Stockholm 02.08.1993

[@dremk26]

I WAS THERE! we meet them before the show and Layne was the most amazing and down to earth person.

[@evapierce1090]

Omg! Thats awesome. I would love to know what he said. Your very lucky to have a memory like that.

[@zukev1]

2:35 - 2:40 Layne gives the sign of the cross and then flips the bird as he is singing "Won't you come and save me?..." Can't believe I missed this before. Very profound, considering he was losing his battle with Heroin.

[@evapierce1090]

I just noticed it in this video also. I've seen this show in other videos and never caught it before.

[@Stuke51]

I like how Layne chucks that guitar. What a badass!

[@infernadrumer]

One of the best rock singers of all time. R.I.P. Layne

[@Menhei]

damn his voice!.. ALWAYS SOUNDS PERFECT!!!

[@flowrpowrlovechild]

Might as well face it, He's gone and there will never be another just like him. Many imitators but nothing ever like him will there be again! RIP Dude! We miss you!

[@evapierce1090]

Well said.

[@jhoansebastianTamayo]

Layne always and ever

[@MimicalThought]

2:55 - when somebody throws a shoe at Layne Staley, he doesn't bitch about it like James Hetfield, he keeps fucking rocking instead of making lame excuses for the band not to play.

[@flyyspit]

that vid rocked..thanks Al

[@wynnerz73]

Man Layne's voice really kicks ass aside from Jerry's Guitar playing ...

[@angyman666]

When he chucks the guitar off the stage you know shits about to go down

[@TOOLGODDESSTT]

this was one of their best shows ever

[@rodrigo45554555]

Layne always crazy.

[@SalandFindles]

Them Bones is about us all facing death at one point, not from drugs, just plain simple death. Would? IS about Mother Love Bone's former singer, Andrew Wood, who overdosed on heroin in 1990. Jerry Cantrell wrote that song.

[@rosekittygraykittyjackkitt9676]

#I just love the way Layne uses his hands, which really are a great size for extensive and never ending a*s kickins when necessary , a fact that is totally covered up by the media, due to the reps of the perps, never wanting to be seen as beaten and admit defeat. Y, Sean k, and Mike s. R perfect examples, just to name 2., of the a*s kickees , and or, recipients of ---###

[@msorb667]

Very good eye, zukev1; that was very profound indeed - I would never have noticed that. Thanks for that.

[@drumme19r84]

nah, not always. I just watched a video in here from 1996 where he had problems hitting the tones correctly. Alice In Chains - Again 1996 live. the video where he has purple hair. But he was terrific when he was at his best!

[@ariadnenevermind]

Layne.. you are the man!

[@Menhei]

u're right.. but most of the time he was amazing, even if he had problems with tones.. is so nice to hear him.. do u know what i mean?

[@crippe1000]

miss kurt and laney :(

[@LilLee965]

@breezer0781 i notice that in a few of the videos when he sings this song.this is my belief ,but i think that we all have to answer to someone even after its all said and done here on earth.and i feel that his soul is not at rest .it scares me to think that he may be suffering more now than he ever did while he was here.if he only knew.

[@staleyntari]

ahaha...love my disrespectful Layne at 2:35..lol.

[@TrevorSeery]

No one does this anymore!!! Heavy and groovy!1! Only one I had was Mudhoney in Dublin in a small sweatbox!!! Hot night!!!!!

[@Kmiilost]

Twenty years ago...

[@tatt2u2]

great vid

[@jeremylovesmusic1]

@fenderstratman120 Hell yes and we'll give him Justin Beiber and Lil' Wayne. Layne was one of the best if not the best vocalist of all time. Layne was the reason I started to write lyrics.

[@SalandFindles]

Layne Staley said himself in an interview that he never created anything while in that state of mind.

[@evapierce1090]

I saw that interview. I believe him. Hes my lyric and vocal god.

[@SalandFindles]

@@evapierce1090 I'm still here 13 years later! I agree with you! 😁

[@MustObeyTheRules]

Not Laynes best live performance of this.... Look up man in the box live at Miami arena, Miami. That's one of his best that's posted on KZbin.

[@Stuke51]

Yea. 1993 was when his voice started declining. A lot of people won't admit it, but it's true.

[@mmeatheaddd]

@@Stuke51 smoking cigs alone will riun a voice now add in the other drugs he did and smoked = not good for the voice.

[@riolinda91695673]

Hahah this is the same show where Layne hit that Nazi guy, that was funny. Layne Staley for life!

[@btl743]

Great. AIC the best.

[@AliceMudGarden4life]

it's a somewhere between hell and paradise!

[@maurovalenciamusic]

really, depression killed him

[@Rw7451]

God, Layne had some fuckin pipes on him... alot better than Duvall's nose singing.

[@ANGabe84]

@Monchi2006 If he was an actual godsmack fan, he'd also realize one of Sully's idols is Layne Staley ;o

[@timothycooper123]

keep on rockin yea

[@SalandFindles]

fuck........that! They're equally as awesome. It's not about who's better. UGH, why in the fucking hell does everyone thing it's about that when It's clearly not?

[@trickerdgaming]

@W78516 YAY! this time you replyed to me!

[@nashnwo1234]

the only reason people like axel rose and james hetfield stop a show over something being tossed at the stage is because they have gigantic fucking ego's. layne didnt really have that issue, he was crazier than 99% of the audiences anyway and didnt care if people got nuts. plus he never said or did stupid shit to cause someone to want to throw something at him.

[@ItsTimeIDisappear09]

@steelz78 hell yea. ive yet to see somebody do that like he did, hes the only one that did it really

[@LilLee965]

if we could wish our heroes back,if we could [only take there pain away,] its like the words in [dear mama] that song was really deep and good.what demons posses our soul and drag us down and under .and blind our eyes and our senses. its so sad and it pisses us off because you want to grab him to let him know,but non of us could of saved him....fuk!

[@junkhead223]

@OverkillAlchemist Hahahahah, that comment made my day.

[@The90sGamingGuy]

Laynes voice was in good shape here. I kinda started to go on one show in 1992. Does heroin really affect your voice after repeated use. I guess it would weaken the body of many things. I know quite a bit about it after reading and seeing ppl on it. Never tried it .One too many deaths in the rock world from them doing it. I learned from their tragic mistakes. Not trying to be a douche. Kick ass show. RIP LAYNE!

[@Asstricks]

If you've ever sang a live show, your vocal chords to get tired and your vocals don't do what you want them to. It could be the point in the show where Layne's voice was starting to quit. All that screaming didn't help either.

[@LFSPharaoh]

@ItHurtsWhenIPee100 so weird he barely even threw it and it soared haha

[@holynapkin]

This is the worst of Layne.. lol. He's amazing, but this vid doesn't do him any justice. He was either insanely stoned, pissed, or bored. Probably all.

[@The90sGamingGuy]

I have dabled with a few things. Never let anything or anyone control me. My two drugs of choice are alcohol and cigarettes. I drink in moderation now.

[@Monchi2006]

@timothycooper123 yeah that's why i don't feel sorry for Layne like most of these posters....if they only knew all the fun he had.

[@Monchi2006]

@JIMVOMIT wtf are you kidding me for?and just what did i write about heroin that would make me such a connoisseur?

[@Monchi2006]

@LilLee965 oh i got no problem talking with someone over 3 years old on youtube.(cause most of the comments people post are foolishness),but just so you know the headbanging thing was allready around in the 80's. so Layne was a post headbanger,and yeah bod surfing waas the thing in those days,and no u dont suffocate me ur kinda cool

[@trashmonster26]

do these guys EVER preform at day?

[@trickerdgaming]

@W78516 and this is coming from the guy who replys to himself.....please

[@Jakexx01]

@sphericalpyramid Kudos to Cantrell and MIKE STARR

[@ListedMia-sm4xm]

I thought Mike left after rock Rio 2 months prior

[@Teeb2]

he does dance like him!

[@timothycooper123]

sad but true man in addiction

[@Monchi2006]

@PGuitar97 ok he can headbang if he wants, but everytime hes not headbanging its because hes to fucked up??is a man expected to be headbangin everytime he's good and healthy??

[@BT1ZER]

@MimicalThought They threw that shoe cuz he fliks off that little croos he does with his fingers huh?

[@timothycooper123]

we like noise its a choice RIP sid vicious

[@DunderQBrak]

Någon som var där? :) Skriv isåfall.

[@Asstricks]

I re-read my post and it sounded like I was coming off as a douche. I didn't mean to sound like that :)

[@telltalemse]

me. adore. layne. love.

[@nachooolibre123]

that is true

[@timothycooper123]

@doghunter100 red bud dry. why ask why. he is still gifted.enjoy he is the last call!

[@KurtCobainof21]

You mean Layne Staley

[@DRIVEBYRACHKO]

Who the fuck cares... they both were originals, both kicked ass in their own respective ways, and sadly both died in preventable ways...

[@MimicalThought]

@Cutter1018 Probably, lol.

[@Monchi2006]

@ANGabe84 yesss totally agree with you,but what can you expect from someone who writes such a stupid comment

[@ItsTimeIDisappear09]

Yeah, plus he didnt wanna mess up his bad ass hairdo lol

[@JIMVOMIT]

fckn awsoooome

[@trickerdgaming]

@W78516 so you do know...you replyed to yourself right? not to smart.

[@Spider_7_7]

@Hardcorey68 LOL!

[@trickerdgaming]

@techdeckdude4 If this is what you look up to...I for sorry for you man

[@trickerdgaming]

@W78516 Bet he dose now tho...I hope you go get saved.

[@chrisp.priftis584]

2:34

[@Nemonin2]

haha jerry fucked up for a few bars there, but great performance, especially for that year.

[@timothycooper123]

@octopusxoctopus yes you get it bless you save me love it

[@nachooolibre123]

it still is true though

[@250honda]

oh but it does...but it shows he was a bit off..loved the energy thooo

[@AICMasta]

Who's Shaun?

[@gigers2775]

Probably he didn't even notice it xD

[@tylerbrittan593]

Or Axl Rose. What's funny is Layne and the boys were highly influenced by GnR. Glad they didn't pick up the lame attitude!

[@deadgone7]

Tyler Brittan shut up

[@timothycooper123]

remember that i am real.

[@Stophocles]

and by that indescribable element, you mean layne not really being able to sing anymore?

[@brdaws]

@timothycooper123 ..... Hahahahaaaaaaaa........

[@LilLee965]

@Monchi2006 heroin .....evrything god made beautiful ,satan killed...the poppy is a beautiful flower ,who would know how the plant would kill so many,and your absolutely rite ,back in the 90 at that time head banging was still in infancy. body surfing was the thing,the mosh pit was starting to get big.layne was the original and no one will ever replace that.i dont mean to suffocate you with my beliefs or opinions,but i could not pass by this with out commenting.

[@Deevon667]

@Monchi2006 and to think, godsmack isn't even amazing...

[@trickerdgaming]

@laynestaley1990 You started this debate....so yea...dont reply to my comment. it had nuthing to do with you dude. and oh...and yeah! God did say that haha good day to you.

[@bustercampfiresongs]

Layne sounds great. I do have a problem with Inez' big wig.

[@trickerdgaming]

@W78516 No. I been playing Alice in chains for years now. I just didnt like Layne doing that. and I'm going to stop playing them now. also I'm not trying to be high and mighty dude. I'm not in anyway higher then you. or anyone for that matter. we are all the same. and I wish you could make a point. you just keep saying stupid stuff.

[@Gitarp]

man those are really really long hairs what the hell

[@trickerdgaming]

@laynestaley1990 I never said I was a Judges....and I know ppl have made worse mistakes. but once you have died in your sins and didnt know repint. you can ask for forgivness. thats even what God said. not me! so yea...if Layne laid there and did not repint and ask Jesus Christ to forgive him. and then died in his sins. he would have been judged...thats just the way it is

[@juddy219]

or axel rose...lol

[@nachooolibre123]

have u notice the bigger AIC got, the less better layne got at singing it? its probably the heroin RIP Layne

[@Keilz]

Hes got a hell of a voice, but its not to good here.

[@trickerdgaming]

@laynestaley1990 I didnt have front roll tickets..believe it or not. I was not even there. but what I say dose not matter. or change anything. I feel bad for Layne and I dont want anyone else going thru what he did. and like I said if you die in your sins there is NO HOPE FOR YOU!!! fact! didnt say that. God did. its his word not mine. I dont want ppl thinking they can live like this and die. and still make it to heaven. you have to be forgiven by Jesus Christ, if not. then you will go to hell

[@Elhombrepes]

@animetrickerd all you say is ridiculous. Want christ's help? please...

[@timothycooper123]

screamin is good for you just like heroin and or cigs but this is real save me burn my eye sew it shut

[@7u6y]

Remind you of Jim Morrison, get the fuck out it here, Layne was unic, the only one, there will never be anybody like Layne Staley, sorry man, my opinion!!!

[@timothycooper123]

drug adicted shut sad but true save me

[@trickerdgaming]

@W78516 That was the worse come back ever. and maybe he did it becuse Jesus died on the cross for him. how rude of Christ. please. just shut up man. I say that out of love.

[@jalkkis]

Awesome performance! But it feels like Staley is pissed off and wants to get off the stage asap. That nazi guy totally ruined this show for them.
