Rockstar ALICE IN CHAINS

Although I agree that Alice in Chains on Rockstar would lower their "rock stock" and make them significantly less credible, I have no problem with the idea of Alice in Chains carrying on without the television show. I would like to see the remaining members do something. They don't need to call themselves alice in chains, they can if they want, but really don't need to. In all fairness to Jerry, Alice in Chains was NOT Layne. He was an integral part and a tremendous loss, particularly to vocal harmonies, but Jerry, not Layne, wrote the overwhelming majority of the music AND lyrics.

Layne is dead.....that was the end of AIC. Period.

They are. Dean and Rob Deleo are recording with Richard Patrick of Filter. Their new band is called Army of Anyone. Their album is reportedly due out later this year (hopefully Juneish)

why hopefully? it will probably be as bad as when they were TALK SHOW the first time weiland left, maybe worse cause that guy from filter sucks. that would be an appropriate name for the band though. . . from the sound of this thread, am i the only one who kinda likes that new inxs song?? it could be just a passing faze

AIC is too depressing for network television.

It will never happen so relax.

I think Van Halen is the likely choice. They are pretty much a novelty act anymore anyway so...why not? Don't get me wrong Van Halen fans...They have some great music but, let's face it...they've not exactly lit the world on fire the past 10 years. The Dave/Sammy tour was cool but, that was just cashing in on past success. They need to move on and maybe this will help them.

After the run away suck-cesses of Rockstar:Nirvana, Rockstar:The Jimi Hendrix Experience, VH1 is PROUD to present:

ROCKSTAR:THE BEATLES!!!!

...where 2 lucky winners will join Paul and Ringo on stage, filling the roles of John Lennon and George Harrison.

i hard rockstar 2 was actually gonna be w/ van halen...it was on the radio the other day when i was in my girlfriends car...so AIC is safe for @ least 1 more season


i acutally thought of this when i saw the first one...what about AIC....then i immediately realized no1 could or ever will replace layne

If Season 2 of Rock Star is VH ... maybe Season 3 will be Rock Star: Extreme?

Heh.

I don't think RS: AIC would go ... AIC are not commercially viable, they didn't have the necessary cross-over appeal back then to make the show a success now. The audience would be too limited for the network to gain from it.

STP had a little more crossover appeal and poppier songs (in a songwriting hook, not in a pre-fab starlet with a t.v.-show kinda way), but I also think their audience was too narrow. INXS & VH had the 40-something female demographic alongside the 20-something male barflies. That's the broadscale audience that producers are probably going for.

No fucking way they should do that with AIC, or I should say AIC shouldn't participate. That would suck.

So with that said. Anyone know what Jerry C is up to lately?

Rockon! and RIP Layne
