Mike, I really love you as a good hearted man. I pray you can quit blaming yourself for Layne's death. IT WAS NOT YOUR FAULT. I feel you CAN kick this drug addiction, if you really try hard. THINK of yourself for once. Please, please get on with your life without these drugs.....I have faith in you!!!!!!!!
You're dumb. Starr was kicked out sometime during 1993. He couldn't put up with the rigors of touring and wanted to be with family more. Mike Inez has been the bassist for 17 years. He played with Ozzy.
Viacom has already blocked a bunch of these. Viacom, before you block this video YOU SUCK!!!!!! Viacom only wants us to watch this on the rare occasion it may be on VH1. It might never be on again, so that means we won't be able to watch it ever again, its whatever Viacom decides, in between Geico commercials which we'll never stop seeing.
Just like Layne said.... "you cant understand a users mind, but try with your books and digrees, cause if you let yourself go and open your mind, id bet youd be using like me and it aint so bad"
cobain and staley shot him up on tour in south america when they fired starr and starr died for 11 minutes, but he woke up with layne crying over him and he feels guilt because he was layne just before he died and didn't call 911
@McGirl09 that when alice in chains was touring with nirvana and the red hot chili peppers in south america kurt shot him up with heroin and then layne did
Mike seems really down to earth and he reminds me of my best friend who died in 2004 of cirrhosis of the liver.I wish Mike all the best in recovery and all the best with his newband "motorcade" . Work those steps brother and take it one day@ a time.
I just read a thing that said Mike left the band to spend more time with his family n because of constant touring but in this it says he was kicked out....which really happen?
Hm, I don't know for sure. I read his biography (Unchained) and it says he left it, but shortly after regret this and said he wanted to stay in the band. They (esp. Jerry) said it was too late. Mike was also on heroine those days and I think 2 badass junkies just were too much for one band...
No problem, but I can't guarantee it's the truth. That book is a little weird, some information doesn't sound too trustworthy, just thought you should know...
Not to be a bee-yotch here, just a minor correction: Layne's mom actually goes by the name Nancy Layne McCallum, not Nancy Staley. E-mails from her on behalf of the Layne Staley Fund feature her name as I have stated.
R.I.P. Layne and Mike! May they blast Facelift and Dirt up in heaven!

I hope Mike gets better he seems like a really cool guy. & Poor Layne's mother. I cried when I first watched this its so heartbreaking.

Not the most encouraging look from Mike when Dr.Drew tells him that he "has to want to get better" I hope he does though.

I could be totally wrong, but Mike Starr seems like the antisocial "charmer" type.
