  • He was such a wreck here.

    It would have been nice to atleast see one show with Layne. To bad im born in the 90's.

    RIP Layne

  • NO Layne...Thank you! :)

  • we miss you bro...thinking of joining you...you and my best friend...who could ask for more?

  • it sorta sounds like he has a southern accent here

  • This performance was so important for them to play, their acoustic based songs are in it's own right.

  • @RovingLandRover no thats the drummer sean lol

  • No Layne, Thank YOU!!

  • what a gifted voice get born again please log on to equip.org

  • STILL miss you!!!!! My gosh you were supremely talented!!!!!!!!! Wow this is back when MTV was amazing!!!! Go 1996!!

  • you are so beautiful

  • Please somebody tell me what concert is this ?

  • @KiefKing215 Mtv unplugged 1996 ...

  • No, thank you Layne. For the memories, the music and the inspiration.

  • Comment removed

  • it's noticable that he has no front teeth in this show, why wouldn't he just get dentures?

  • @3dgun He still had all of his teeth in 1996, didn't start losing them 'till the final few years of his life. You can however hear a slight lisp that he always had. People often mistake this for missing teeth.

  • @Rebphoenix Didn't know that thanks for the info.

  • @3dgun I think it looks like his teeth aren't there just because he's looking down. His eyes aren't actually shadowed either when you see the house lights hit his face. He looks a little thinner but he still looks like Layne. He actually had a really beautiful smile but with the way his mouth was shaped you couldn't always see his teeth unless he was really smiling, or single with his mouth wide open. :)

  • D'oh I meant singing. Sorry to early in the AM for me.

  • God, he looks so young.

  • 7 dislikes stupid fucks and yes it wrong 4 u 2 b thanking us thank you R.I.P Layne Staley

  • Dont use drugs!!!

  • Died young...WAY too young

  • @lp6599 its his fault... hees the stupid one who did drugs and then overdosed on a speedball

  • One of the greatest male vocalists of all time.

  • layne just has that amazing sound to his voice, thats so unique you cant find anything to compare it to

  • layne is best singer eva, know what i'm sayin'

  • I just wanna run through the computer screen and give Layne a hug!

  • thank you for killing yourself fag. 

  • @laynestaleyisadedFAG Why the FUCK does everyone bash on these great singers? Their lives were ripped apart by drugs and people like you keep saying shit about them. It's bullshit man. I bet the last piss Layne took was better than anything you've ever done.

  • @xxa411xx

    because he was an overrated cocksucker and aic pretty much sucked cock. he cared about no one but himself! the last piss he took was glorious. he had pissed pants when they found his 86 pound decomposing body. lmfao. fuck this faggot.

  • @laynestaleyisadedFAG Lol. I was just playin' man. I think he had an amazing voice. Idk what he was like.

  • @xxa411xx

    he was an asshole and everyone loves him now just because he's dead!

  • @laynestaleyisadedFAG It's ironic you should say HE is the asshole, but look at yourself saying all this evil shit. Heartless, stupid, unreasonable people like you disgust me.

    Get lost, and quit spreading hate because that's all you're doing.

  • @laynestaleyisadedFAG Wow nice username... get off the computer and go play with that new big black dildo you secretly ordered last week. Wanker.

  • @laynestaleyisadedFAG

    have you ever met him? what gives u the right to call him an asshole? your pathetic and people love him for the amazing talent he had. His shit has more talent then u will ever have, you are seriously a total fag. have some fkn respect.

  • Actually Layne Staley was a very underrated singer now Kurt Cobain was overrated. When you die your body relaxes and therfore can't control your bowels. He also had bloated to name near 200 pounds and another thing, It breaks my heart for you to talk about someone that way I am a recovering heroin addict and it was one of the hardest things I have ever overcome and It's hard to stay clean everyday what makes you so high and fucking mighty?

  • This is one of the most disturbing things I have read in awhile. When you die your body relaxes therefore bowels are released. I am a recovering heroin addict and it was one of the hardest things to overcome. Layne was very underrated now Kurt Cobain thats fucking overrated. There was no way he was 86 pounds when they found him when you die you bloat. Id love you catch you in Wa go to seattle around capital hill and talk shit about people with drug problems.@laynestaleyisadedFAG

  • @laynestaleyisadedFAG

    Trollon trollin trollin. Trollin trollin trollin

    RIDE EM IN TROLLHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

  • @laynestaleyisadedFAG i suppose that you're big fan of aic and layne, you're just trolling people like you cuz it's easier than trolling other kind of people, right?

  • @uzickismrad you got that right its just some little girl on their mothers computer talking that teenage bullshit...let it go

  • @laynestaleyisadedFAG Hey dude, dont you find it kind of pathetic that your entire youtubeprofile revolves around Layne? Guess we all know who the real FAG is

  • a beautiful talent

  • @foxNOR1 Fuck you, man!

  • @foxNOR1 fuck yourself faggot

  • @foxNOR1 you're an asswipe. i know a junkie. he's a college dropout, he's living on the streets, and he barely has any hope anymore. but you know what would have happened if he hadn't gotten into heroin? he would've been a recipient to a respectable degree in drafting and design. he would've likely gotten a nice career, a brand new house, a wife, and 2-3 kids, complete with a puppy and a 401k. He was, and still is one of the most intelligent people i've ever met.

  • @foxNOR1 But he got roped into this disease. he likely isn't going to make it out, and he's wasting his life away day by day. the important thing, however, is that he realizes it. just as my longtime friend is a jewel of this earth, so was layne. just like you and i, he's a human being. he's got a problem, and he's being irresponsible, but he's a human being. he is a part of a disease that turns you into a walking zombie before you can ever wake up and realize what's going on.

  • @foxNOR1 so before you go and say stupid shit like that, think twice about who's going to see that and call you out on your ignorance. once again, we're all only human.

  • @foxNOR1 GO FUCK YOURSELF BITCH! YOU WOULD BE GLAD TO HAVE 10/10 OF IS TALENT FAGGY SHIT!

  • @foxNOR1

    I see you have a shitload of "Mascaraca" videos saved to your favorites. And I see on your profile that you´re leaving a shitload of evil comments about Layne. This man continues to inspire millions of people with his music, his lyrics and most important - his personality. You got nothing to inspire people with, dude. You inspire them only to hate you. The baddest singer this world ever had is thanking the audience. HE is thanking the audience!!! SHUT THE FUCK UP AND LISTEN IN AWE!!!!

  • Layne was such a kind soul. The great thing is that when you heard his voice it was so unique. Everything he sang was soulful and from the heart. It hurt me realy bad when he died. Layne will always be one of my favorite singers. What a beautiful person : )

  • I know this might sound embarassing,but if I was there,I would have just gone up there and hugged Layne

  • @RedGeneral66 haha who wouldn't? ^^

  • Thank YOU Layne and AIC for giving us all this great music

  • Thank you Layne for your amazing music.

    RIP

  • Fucking drugs man. Seriously, people who make em need to be hung by their nutsacks and have their nipples chewed on by rabid squirrels... then after 14 days, executed.

  • No, thank you Layne.

  • Your welcome.

  • Wow, he looks/sounds beaten up here... poor guy... the world lost such a treasure, in Layne Staley. I have been an Alice in Chains fan for like, 3 weeks, and they have made such an impact on me. If only Layne was still around. Legend

  • than u layne for ur kick ass tunes rip man miss yeah ur fan rich

  • My favourite ever vocalist. . .he's right top of the pile.. . . outstanding

  • even when he spoke he sounded good

  • the 4 people that disliked this video need to be pushed into a pool of piranhas after having been given acid taps 30 minutes before.

  • We miss you Layne

  • You want to hate something, hate Heroin.

  • @mrceebees14

    don't hate a little heroin, hate A LOT of heroin.

  • @mrceebees14

    well, don't hate a little heroin, hate A LOT of heroin.

  • @mrceebees14

    well, don't hate a little heroin, hate A LOT of heroin.

  • you keep goin' well ti'll 2010 for now

  • we play grunge acoustic...i know nobody cares lol

  • Layne will never die!

    He lives through us, his fans.

    Love you, Layne<3

  • @allwillsuffer Too right chicky, that's the spirit :-)

  • @hotnheavy81

    Our love for, Layne. Will NEVER EVER die!

    <3 Better believe that. Keep the spirit alive with me, brother ;)

  • @allwillsuffer There isn't a day I don't play a song he sang.

  • @UrbanTiger74

    I appreciate that, & I'm 100% positive that Layne, appreciates it too, my friend!

    Keep Laynes name & spirit alive! & I will forever continue too. <3

  • @TheNewGrungeMovement Yeap, it's "The Killer is Me"

  • u think he was religious?

  • @AddictedToTrees I think he was more spiritual. He was reading The Prophet while making the Mad Season record.

  • Killer is Me! One of THE best songs by Alice. And whats crazy is, the song was some quick tune they came up with on their sound check.. fucking brilliant

  • hey please watch and comment its my bands first original

  • Layne, we thank you for what you gave us, amazing vocals with a mixture of ecstatic instrumentals.

    R.I.P. we'll never forget you.

  • no layne ,we thank you that you existed! :)

  • layne's voice kinda sounds country-ish at times in the video huh? great fucking guy. period.

  • awesome video. layne staley rules!

  • THANKS FOR ALL LAYNE.

    We'll see you in heaven.

    Wait for us!

  • fuck heroin, don't do drugs people :\

  • @RootsBloodyRooots true, heroin is what killed Layne, Morrison, Hendrix and what made Cobain kill himself, why the fuck did they have to do heroin, at least stick to weed, that doesn't kill you or make you kill yourself

  • @Taboas2013 exactly bro, too true. fuck heroin, its killed off most of our rock stars.... maybe thats what made them who they were but they didt have to go down such a hardcore road to destruction. stick to the weed and ride it out a bit.... i dont know....

  • Layne thanks for what you have done........ your songs echo in my mind and memory back when I was a teen, I miss MTV unplugged , that was such a great thing for real artists that dont need backup dancers and some lights and shit.... ppl that really played their music... I miss that

  • Layne was so gracious and humble!

  • I feel so alone,

    Gonna end up a

    Big old' pile ah them bones.

    You were right layne, you did. But too fucking soon.

  • RIP Layne Thomas Staley

  • I miss Layne so much :'(

  • You know what, I love Layne. I know a lot of people post things that are uncalled for. We all at the end of the day have problems. Layne done something for the music industry and my generation that we WILL NEVER SEE AGAIN.

  • @royalty890 I totally agree with you.

  • @DaarkDestiny I'm glad somebody does haha. I miss Layne, but at least I have music by these guys to still get by all of it.

  • @royalty890 I feel the same way : )

  • Layne........love you......:)

  • I WANNA CRY.I LOVE HIM.

  • I wonder if layne shot up before the show?

  • @poptube87 Ummmm no he didn't - he was recovering! I bet YOU shot up before you wrote that! Douche!

  • @breezer0781 Yea I did, so it was easy to recognize, he might of said he was in recovery but most likely his use was as high as ever

  • your welcome Layne Staley but nevertheless we should be thanking you... so from the bottom of my heart thank you RIP my friend!!!!!!

  • I think the band would have hurt equally if they were to loose jerry.. he wrote 90% of the songs?

  • @PearlJamison Yeah that's a good point!! those two made up the band

  • rip layne

  • No Layne - you're wrong for thanking us.

    Thank you Layne. Thank you.

  • @davidhavok6 High School is over homo! XD

  • @davidhavok6 layne is never wrong ;)

    but u'r right too haha

  • @davidhavok6 were is the time :'(

  • @davidhavok6 lmao

  • God bless Layne. RIP.

  • @7d7e7f7 When he died?

  • Layne was awsome... the new guy, William DuVall, dosent even come close to raplasing him

  • @eastonian13 I don't understand why you got thumbed down 4 times? I guess all the new Alice in Chains fans don't care about Layne Staley.

  • @eastonian13 no one could... just be happy maybe the band will live on with a strong memory of layne to influence some more people :D

  • Doctoras mis pelotas peludas...

  • @drjuancarlosvega

    Who is your favorite artist? i almost guarantee they were addicted to something.

  • fuck you, and your pastor, evil son of a bitch.

  • What a talent this world lost...

  • @celticguy6405 Indeed. But I would like to remind everyone that Jerry Cantrell wrote must of the songs. Layne just sang them. Talented, yeah, but don't forget about Jerry...

    It annoys me how singers always seem to be the center of attention in bands, because singing requires less talent than playing an instrument, it's just something that comes naturally to some people, so if they don't write or anything then they really shouldn't be getting all the attention. Although clearly a sweet guy...

  • @cupcakemouse

    i heard that jerry did write most of the songs at the beggining, but as the years when by (and layne's problems got worse) layne was writing more and more songs.

  • oh definitely, to me jerry is and always was the backbone of the band, but he's not dead... yea layne just provided vocals but that's still a talent right?

  • no he not just provide only vocals.. you must hear 'Again'.. 'Slugde Factory'.. 'Angry Chair'.. ' Frogs'.. for example... songs wroten by Layne

  • wroten hahaha

  • akakkakakaka -.-

  • yea some of the best ones were written by him

  • Layne didn't just sing them, he also composed songs, like Angry Chair. Anyway, they co-opped nicely. Perfect duo.

  • Arguably the greatest person ever

  • lol @ Layne thanking me for listening! Who wouldn't want to listen? You are a fucking legend Layne! It's a shame you couldn't Dam That River. It washed you so far away, but then again, maybe you didn't give a damn anyway. R.I.P. now Layne. No more pain.

  • good use of song lol even if jerry's

  • No, THANK YOU LANE!

  • dude was lit

  • qualcuno può dirmi in italiano cosa dice layne, anche in inglese magari...

  • we thank You

  • Layne ur missing here a lot...

  • luv u layne

  • youre an alien or something?? open your ears!! dickass

  • dice q habian esperado mucho tiempo para tocar ese show y q gracias x venir a todos q significa mucho para ellos

    ^^ espero q te haya servido mi traduccion

  • this song is called no excuses.

    clap clap clap clap

  • It's hard to believe he's gone, after watching all this footage.

  • he will never be gone, he will live imortally through his music like jeff buckley jimi hendrix and kurt cobain

  • And Bradley Nowell and Dimebag Darrell

  • Too bad he shreds guitar better than you can shred a piece of paper. And I dont doubt that your paper shredding skills are amazing.

  • loooooooolz xD

  • You are the pussy, you fucking faggot-ass piece of shit.

  • no excuses!

  • He was such a tender soul and we barely knew him. The poor guy became a victim of his habits and paid the ultimate price.

  • next song...no excuse..

  • I agree No Layne No Chains....he may have not been the band, but I don't think that the band would have been as popular without Layne. That voice......depresses me and makes me happy at the same time. Happy birthday Layne, we all love and miss you! Your wings are no longer denied.

  • well wvuusa, although i dont really like the new singer, i think its good for the band, to still go out and play. alc will never ever be the same again, without layne. but i think layne would be happy that his band is still out there playing and enjoying life.

  • thats right...killer is me...great song

  • I believe its "The Killer is Me".

  • this is a serious guestion to all u Alice fans im a big nirvana fan myself but how does it feel to have layne staley replaced after what happened to him. remember this is a serious guestion and i would love your opinions.

  • I think the band should move on, after all layne was a member of the band NOT the band. I think he had a special place though that can't really be filled by any other singer out there especially in the heart of his fans.
