Yeah, there was a thread the other day that someone started stating the same thing. Only their version says it came from a Tampa radio station. At this point, nobody has heard anything and I find it hard to believe that some radio stations would be announcing this stuff while the fans on this board are getting faint rumors at best (and trust me, somebody on here is going to hear confirmed tour news before the radio stations do).
Why are they touring with that Butt rocker Jerry Cantrell? They must be good friends, real good friends from Seattle man. Didn't Jerry Cantrell inexplicably play with Creed and other idiotic bands?
my friend's friends were just at the Florida concert where they played and they said the group was great, the lead singer, and the new songs...but i'm up for some AIC...ive seen some of their youtube stuff...not bad imo

at least blind melon knows they're not the same band they were with Shannon.
Jerry swings his hair around like it's 1992, as if he single handily (sp?) rose AIC to greatness. a great guitarist, yes, but Layne's voice is what carried that band.
melon opening for PJ would be greatness.
peace.

I would prefer AIC, but sure wouldn't cry if it was either one.
Everybody made a movie....

We'll be seeing him in no time.... Oh Yeah.....
Really? I thought Pearl Jam is touring with Van Halen this summer..

BTW...AIC without Layne=PJ without Eddie! Even Cantrells lead vocals aren't the same without his harmonies. quote]
Hmm, not really, Jerry sings on a lot of AIC stuff and wrote most of the songs, so without Jerry there would be no AIC. Yes undoubtbly Layne's voice was amazing but let's not take away what a huge part of AIC Jerry is, an amazing song writer and guitarist.

Yes...I agree he is a great songwriter and GIGANTIC part of AIC. That being said...No Layne...No AIC.
Only an AIC tribute band. Sorry.

I saw the new chains open for Velvet Revolver last summer. I must say it was better than I expected, Not Layne obviously, but enjoyable. I did notice that Jerry's timing however was a bit off, it sounded like when he was playing the big recognizable riffs they were a beat slower than the studio recordings.

didn't Matt Cameron drum with nickelback? Everyone makes mistakes!
I don't care who they tour with, just tour! But Alice in Chains is better than that guy who opened at the point, he was terible-Patty whatever.
Paddy Casey in the Point in Dublin?If that's who you mean,and even if it's not,Paddy Casey is a cunt.He was in my college a few months back and I told him to go fuck himself.....Not to his face of course,but he heard me so I got one back for all Pearl Jam fans who were at that gig....if that is the gig you were on about.
It may be the devil or it may be the Lord
But you're gonna have to serve somebody.
Did anyone follow-up with the radio station or the DJ who made the statement? I'd think that it's important to stay as close to the source of the rumor as possible. If there's info that supports it being true, that radio station probably knows of it.

Alice in Chains are currently taking a break from touring and there are currently no plans for the band to tour in 2008. To stay on top of any changes to those plans, please sign up for Dirt, the band’s official online newsletter.
not a dates will be announce at some time..but 'no plans'...not looking good.
I don't care if they open for PJ, but I'll be annoyed if it's shared bill.

We are Red, we are White, we are Danish Dynamite!
if you go in thinking of it as AIC, you might be disappointed.
if you go in thinking of it as a celebration of AIC's music, you will have a blast.
i agree that i'll take AIC over any PJ opener i've seen (50+ shows).
and i agree that i dont really care who opens as long as PJ tours.
"In your case, I'll check my brain at the door and we'll start even, okay?"
Have you thanked a taper today?
I haven't seen the new AIC, but I pretty much agree with that.

Ben Harper and MMJ come to mind as better openers than AIC. It doesn't seem like something Pearl Jam would do but maybe so. A faor of sorts.
