Sad. One of the great bands of the 90s.

Re: Mike Starr of Alice in Chains Dies
Sad news indeed. I met AIC many years ago on the Facelift tour and got Layne, Jerry, Mike, and Seans autograph and they posed for pictures and just shot the sh*t. All were great, down to earth guys. Sad news indeed.

Truly a shame, he was a troubled soul, but with a heart of gold when he was clean. R.I.P. Mr. Starr.

Re: Mike Starr of Alice in Chains Dies
AIC and Nirvana were by far my favorite bands to emerge from the early 90's rock scene. I still can't believe it's been almost 17 years since Cobain's death, and 9 years since Stayley's (sad and ironic they died on the same day). Didn't I read somewhere that Starr was just arrested a couple of weeks ago for possession? Shame.

Re: Mike Starr of Alice in Chains Dies
I'd gladly trade Pearl Jam and RHCP for Nirvana and AIC. I really do think that Rock died on April 5, 1994. What filled the void of AIC, Nirvana, Soundgarden, STP, etc.? Green Day? Creed? Nickleback? Don't even get me started on nu-metal...RATM; I loved them because of what they did, and hated them because all these other posers emulated what they did, and not nearly as well. *end rant*

Re: Mike Starr of Alice in Chains Dies
Nah. Grunge died. THANK G-D.
That and sales of flannel shirts and Chuck Taylor's ended overnight. Without a doubt, the WORST period in "Rock" history. Proof? How many of those bands are together right now? Exactly. |

AIC was my second fave after Soundgarden.

Re: Mike Starr of Alice in Chains Dies
AIC had some of the best vocal harmonies with Layne & Jerry.
RIP Mike.

Re: Mike Starr of Alice in Chains Dies
I love what Dave Grohl did after Cobain decided to kill himself, though...Foo Fighters rock.

Re: Mike Starr of Alice in Chains Dies
I love metal, hard rock, classic rock, I've got it all. And I loved AIC and Soundgarden. I like Pearl Jam and some Nirvana too. That's my opinion.
I understand that my opinion is opinion, not fact.....but that concept is apparently lost on some people.
