Video was taken from the Layne Staley 8th Annual Benefit on August 22, 2009 at the Showbox Market in Seattle, WA.

Nancy was covering the song "Wake Up, " written by Layne Staley when he was in the band called Mad Season.

A day of celebration, because it was his birthday: 8/22/67.

R.I.P. Layne!

  • Sorry a bit behind. I will answer questions soon. For now, I'm sharing something passed on from Laynes Mom:

    There will be a public memorial for Mike Starr @ the Seattle International Fountain @ Seattle Center 3/20 @ 4pm per Layne Staley's Mom Nancy. Thanx, Nancy! ♥

  • If I was there, I would have punched everyone who was talking/laughing while she was singing this song... how f***ing rude.

  • This is beautiful... and think is so hard for Layne´s mother do this... and this is a way to show all her love... and a way to try to heal her pain and to keep alive Layne´s memory. I want to go to Seattle someday... it´s a dream for me... i hope in a near future. Thanks for post this!!...

  • @yerkil28 I believe the closest thing to that was Layne with Ann Wilson of Heart on "Ring Them Bells" great duet...

  • @MX1eleven I wonder if there is a way to clean up the sound? I can't do it but there has to be someone out there who can......

  • @MX1eleven

    I would love to help you in that with pleasure !

  • those people in the crowd need to shut up while she is singing

  • She's a strong lady for coming up and doing that.

    I'm sure she knew some people were going to be shitheads.

    Knowing someone is going to disrespect your lost son, and going

    up there anyway, that takes strength!!!

  • She should be the new AIC singer not this duvall fuck up

  • I Can't Believe what those people were doing!!

    That is so disrespectful!

    Those were not real fans, those were rude and stupid people...

    Her Voice is so beautiful, like the attitude that she had there!

    Thanks Nancy, for being the excelent mother and the great person that you are!

  • blows my mind how fucking direspectful people can be

  • those were not aic fans, they were linkin crap and justin beaver fans! :(

  • How cool of her to sing his song in his remmberance?
