Alice In Chains Singer Lane Staley Dead  Print E-mail

Layne Staley, the 34-year-old singer from the Seattle based grunge band, Alice In Chains was found deal on Friday. Staley was known to be a heroin addict but according to multiple internet sources, the cause of death is not certain. Investigators did say that Staley had been dead for several days before he was found on Friday.

Alice In Chains was one of the most talented acts to rise from the Seattle music scene (including Soundgarden, Nirvana) in the early 1990s. Alice In Chains dark lyrical content and hard hitting rock style was a radical change from the hairspray rock of the late 1980’s heavy metal scene. In a musical era where boy bands and lip synch divas rule supreme, Staley will be missed dearly.

Sherl Benner  - Layne.....still missing you, Sweetheart..   |2009-02-11 12:00:56
I still miss you with everything within me, and I yearn for the day to
re-unite.
I am so sorry you had to suffer so much, and I just had the urge to
let you know that I have not, nor will I ever forget our bond, nor will I forget
you.
Love alway's,
Sherl

No se si entiendan esto, pero desde hace ya un tiempo bastante prolongado llevo
escuchando muscia de sus grupos como Mad season y Alice in chains, y la verdad
si uno pone un poquito de atencion a la letra te llama a poder salir adelante a
todas esas malas situaciones de la vida, ya sean perdidas de alguien querido,
problemas en el hogar, drogas, etc, etc, se que tal vez no es el lugar para
poder escribir esto, pero creo que mas alla de ser un "GRAN ROCKSTAR"
fue alguien que me ha inspirado muchisimo, me ha dado esa luz para poder seguir
adelante, y no hay dia que no escuche alguna de sus canciones, en lo personal ,
les recomiendo "Nutshell Unplugged", esta cancion estoy casi seguro que
la escribio pensando en el dia que ya no estaria, que es ahora.
Gracias por
todo Lane....

OF LANE STALEY'S DEATH LIKE NIRVANA'S SINGER. WHEN HEARING AND READING OF LANE
STALEY'S ERRATIC BEHAVIOR I JUST WISHED AND PRAYED FOR LANE'S SAFETY. BOY, WHAT
A DARN SHAME. I WONDER IF HIS PARENTS TRIED TO INTERVENE THAT'S IF HIS PARENTS
WERE ALIVE AND IN CONTACT WITH HIM.
