One of my Mods posted this tribute to the late ALice in Chains singer on my live music website, thought I would share it here
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LAYNE! SAY HELLO 2 HEAVEN...
Most all of us, no matter what our age or preferred genre, know who Layne Thomas Staley was.
This thread is in honor of his birth on August 22, 1967, in the town of Kirkland, WA.
In celebration of his life and times, take a look, read through and maybe you can post a thought,
a memory, or a pic. Maybe add your favorite AIC/Mad Season song, or lyrics.
All comments welcome.
