I'm trying to find .flac rips of the Dirt Pre Production demos, but i've had trouble finding them in good quality (other than the ones included on Music Bank.)
It'd be great if someone could share any!!
GARYYYYY'SSSSSS ON HIS WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
As the title suggested today is the 30th Anniversary of Layne Staley’s last ever live show. Performed at the Kemper Arena in Kansas City

This is my ‘magnum opus’, the complete set of initial ‘Layne Staley Tribute Show’ merchandise, from years 2002-2009. I believe I am one of the few people who have the completed set (I don’t know of anyone that does). The yearly tribute show is still happening to this day, but after 2009 the merchandise started to take a different direction, straying away from using Layne’s artwork and pictures of his actual likeness.
Years 2002-2004 feature Layne’s artwork from 1994, while years 2005-2009 feature actual pictures of Layne taken throughout the early 90s. All of these shirts are insanely rare and difficult to find, but the 2008 tee might be the most rare, I only know of one other person that has it. It took me a little over a year to track all of these down and complete my collection.
I strongly believe Layne is one of the best vocalists in history and this is my way of keeping his legacy alive. I would really appreciate anyone that shares this post as I am very passionate about this and would love for other fans of Layne, Alice in Chains, and Mad Season to see these amazing shirts as well.
Which year is your favorite? 👀
Has anyone noticed how much faster Sean Kinney starts the song on Unplugged compared to JoF? I wonder if it was from the nerves of playing live or intentionally done faster? Not shitting on the Unplugged version, it's great! Just an observation.
It only took a couple months 🥲
I made the first one myself.
What do you think? Pretty cool, right? 😄
I have the cassette tapes too!
I'll show you them sometime later
Every time I hear people reflect on “grunge” music, or when other artists talk about their influences or who they think the greatest are…I feel like Layne is either an after thought or completely forgotten. Maybe it’s because Alice in chains didn’t tour as much as they could’ve, Layne’s discography was limited (5 albums is still quite significant), maybe his lyricism wasn’t very relatable to most people. But that doesn’t take away from his raw talent and success. Of course he is revered by some, but not at the level of Chris Cornell or Eddie Vedder. What are your thoughts?
Hey guys I’ve seen the Bausch & Lomb Baloramas that Layne and Jerry both wore prior to the ray ban logos the 2 silver dots are clean, as for the unplugged glasses has anyone pinned them down, these look like they’re them, I’ve seen these listed as replica 90s wraparound sunglasses for $40 but these are the ones I just purchased.
What album should I listen to first?
I made these miniature Alice in Chains CD keychains myself!
I love attaching them to my backpack. 🤘
Next, I'm going to make one for their self-titled third album (Tripod).
They're both exactly the same, but one of them is a bit off-coloured
Honestly I don’t wanna hear that it’s disrespectful because I did not write it but DOES ANYONE HAVE. Copy of that wattpad story where Layne eats pizza rolls 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 LITERALLY ITS GONE
Ain’t
Rare find at the Thriftstore today!! Dirt Promo vinyl poster 1992
It’s mixed media, no signature on it, and I can’t find any connection online to AIC or the Facelift album. We take in donations to help run our free petfood bank in Glasgow, Scotland, but we don’t know who dropped it off to ask 😂
