@mintedlama The vast majority only knows of them BECAUSE they kept the AIC name,however, they will ALWAYS get hassled and compared forever. Bands that move on in a different direction, from their past, do

not have to put up with comparisions not nearly as much if at all.

And, the vast majority of people are not fine with it but QUIET about it! Like I said, you won't convince me and I won't convince you but we should both be allowed our opinions.............even if I'm right (lol)

@casey10bb Fair enough regarding your opinion, but you can't speak for 'quiet' people or use them to back up anything you say. Noisy negativism is always heard above the silent majority, however.

It doesn't matter who wrote what -- it's the delivery and sound of the voice that carries the song along...period. If you don't like the tone of someone's voice; no convincing is going to make you like it any better.  Duvall's voice is 'ok' for some, but his tone is not as attractive as Layne's voice. And the band made their choice, they wanted to continue on as AIC so they are going to have to endure the comparisons. Sure they might of been compared anyway but this way made it worse for them

[mintedllama]

@casey10bb I think they would disagree that 'this way' made it worse for them. The vast majority of people are fine with it.

@casey10bb I was actually at this concert, AiC has a name, however, the recovery was with taste and gracefully done. They kept the same sound with a new singer that fits perfectly for what they write. They have the same sound that they always did, only with a new voice. Thumbs up if you agree. :-D

[casey10bb]

@mintedlama  agreed,.fair enough, however, this isn't politics (even though there's that in everything) still, that doesn't apply here cuz this is for the love of music. Most fans are NOT on message boards or on youtube comment sections. They are quietly accepting that AIC has moved on and will NOT move on with them. There are plenty of silent fans out there who just do NOT like the new AIC and refuse to listen to the new stuff even if it comforts you to think my opinion has no merit.

Sounds shitty compared to Layne imo.

[mintedllama]

@bigboss25262 Im glad you're around to judge who and who isn't a fan. The emotion was always written from Jerry's pen... it was sung by Layne. Now it's sung by someone else, doesn't mean it's no longer there.

[bigboss25262]

@mintedllama Yeah, your probably not a real aic fan for saying that.
