Its funny when i hear ppl sing AIC cuz they cant reach the range what Layne Staley had and ppl try to i think the closest person would be Corey Taylor
The vocalist is Jerry Cantrell. He wrote the song and most every song in AIC. The other vocalist (on stage in this vid)is Scott Weiland. However, I agree it's not the best vocally.
long time alice fan here. definitely not impressed. thanks for the tribute but PLEASE do your own version! well i guess this is Jerry's song anyways but Jerry could have sang this better himself. this guy had to downed a half gallon of Old Crow before getting stage or something.
I´m sorry to say this, but this singer just sucks..he is not a bad singer, but he just sounds terrible, when trying to sound like staley..that´s all..
i like this compared to duvall anyday of the week... phil anselmo,axl rose,robert plant,klaus meine,chris cornell,maynard james keenan,robertjohnson,jackwhite,would all be great to hear singing different alice in chains songs somebody with charisma and talent,hope i didn"t leave anybody out/if so=ADD R.I.P LAYNE>
I adore Jerry & love Slash, in that order, but this version sucks. Slightly too slow & the singing just ruins the whole thing. I agree with griese29; all these ATTEMPTS to sing AIC songs only make it more obvious how much Layne Staley is missed & just what a truley great singer he was.
Thanks so much for posting this! Wish I could have been there but glad I can watch it here. Everyone was great. Loving the chance to see Royston Langdon sing.
VR sounds much more like AIC than GNR, which although I liked AIC is unfortunate because Slash's talent is better used at playing rock n' roll than grungy rock
Well, beeterolds, I definately agree with you, but why should we diss kevinAIC33 for saying his reasonable opinion? I have no problem with either of them.
i wasnt dissing him.. not at all.. just saying.. they are the best in their own world.. just like you cant compare Jason Bonham to his Dad.. cause nobody is his dad :)
Wow, great version. A lot of emotion in this performance. I like Slash's use of the wah a lot. Cantrell's harmony vocals are sick. The singer did a good for much of the performance, a few bad notes. Still kick ass though.
it would b cool if they play more together
