EVERYTHING I HAVE READ AND HEARD ABOUT LAYNE STALEY IS HE WAS A PRETTY NICE GUY SO FOR HIM TO REACT THAT WAY MEANS THE AMOUNT OF IGNORANCE IN THAT CROWED MUST HAVE BEEN STAGGERING
He wasn't acting like Axl Rose, whenever Layne Staley decided to talk to people that way seemed like it was usually cause of someone who has the ability to act like a big enough asshole that he can be identified in the middle of a crowd of people all jumping around and yelling
Meet Layne the Legend! He changed the lyrics to the "Layne's pissed" version of Man in the Box, Jerry followed suit changing his backing vocals and then Layne threatened to personally kick someone's ass in the crowd and MEANT IT until a roadie sidetracked him. I miss bad ass Layne.
Layne was the only one in all the rock n roll history, better live than studio version. Best singer, performance and voice. Incredible and underrated 🖤 #LayneStaley Forever
No, you just prefer live music. Live is a different canvas than studio. Studio is cold product. Live is hot. Libe will always be more energetic, raw, and if the band is good more powerful than possible in studio .
This is the Layne I like to remember. He was such a badass here, Layne "Don't fuck with me" Staley (not an easy audience to play for...kudos to all of the band for such a courage). RIP Layne & Mike Starr
Layne wasn’t taking no shit that night 🤣 he went after several people in the audience all while laying down 1 of the best rock live vocal performances in history. Big balls and talent!!!
This show is proof that even with crap audio quality you simply cannot bury a Spector NS-2 in a mix! RIP Mike Starr...you and your tone will be missed.

+Christopher Hickman shit I know right with lots of sick bands in the early 90s who were in the their prime their seems to be a lack of pro shot footage :(
The Live Facelift VHS was actually given to the record stores (remember those?) as a bonus for awhile in the spring/summer 1991 to people that bought the Facelift CD or cassette (remember those?) Then Man in the Box blew up, the album went gold & the musical landscape changed forever! Thankfully!
I was at this show in 91 at Weedsport. It was a time of recession so big bands were packaging up and touring. AIC was great but opening for Slayer is never easy. AIC did a great job rocking hard for a very tough audience who came to cut their teeth on metal. I am proud to say I saw this show and am grateful to relive it through this vid.
He's in heaven, if such a place exists. Now the people condemning him to Hell on the other hand, who knows where their judgemental asses will end up 😒.
But what actual real fan and lover of Layne Staleys music and true heart n soul would want to beat on him for ANY reason??? The fella had enuff pain in his heart to start with without a so called "fan" wanting to fight him? I'm sure he'd hold his own but would still hurt him on the inside afterwards... How about wanting shake his hand and thank him for their wonderful, soul-healing music and thank him for just being him???
Was this really the same guy who sang in the MTV Unplugged in 96 damn. From the Layne "IDGAF" Staley to a skinny depressed vulnerable guy it's super sad. Heroin is the devil's powder.
It’s so frustrating to see this and know that I can never ever see anything like this live ever Anyway, thank you for uploading this! It’s so funny seeing him mad like that and so epic seeing the whole band perform with such great energy they all sound really good!
They were booing him, and telling him to fuck off, you suck, all that shit that metal heads do when they hear "new" styles of music. I saw them on this tour, not at this location, but it happened in Miami too. You gotta remember too, everyone was into GnR, Slayer, Anthrax, etc. Seattle was just starting to blow up, I liked 'em, just didn't know 'em. But I damn sure wasn't disrespectful like most people.
Neal Däämkjær so true. I saw Metallica in ‘88? Anyway, Faith No More opened up and the metal heads just didn’t understand anything out of their narrow ear. I loved FNM and Metallica that show. Too bad some people get stuck in their own music bias
01/22/2023 This is one of my favorite looks that Layne had. At this time, Layne probably did not know all of the trends he was starting, from ripped jeans, hairstyles, wearing sunglasses indoors, etc..,and and then back again to music. I know his voice was all the rave and was used in the vocal mix of many a countless vocalist, aka, studio work. A reliable source once told me that when Layne’s hair was cut, it was against his will, something about losing a bet that Layne actually won. Ask Sean K. He knows! Layne is always beautiful, no matter how he wore his hair, but at that time, Layne was not conscious of that fact---
Dude that was fucking awesome I knew it got heated on the slayer tour, but to see layne act like that is crazy, cause layne rarely gets like that he musta been really pissed
Layne's vocals were record quality in every show I've heard from 91.. and sometimes even better, like Man in The Box from this show. Dude commanded the stage like a straight soldier, too. Plus, I love the black leather, shades, and slicked back hair look... This is prime Layne Staley, and IMO was peak performance, it never got better than it was in '91.. but that's not to say they weren't great until the end, they were.
This must have been an aweful crowd. I knew that in the early days the crowds tended to give them a hard time, but I have never seen Layne get quite this aggressive at a concert in stage. The guy in the blue shirt and the woman he was yelling at must have been doing some bad stuff, wish we could see them to understand why he got so mad. Haven't seen that side of Layne since the Nazi incident, lol At any rate, I love Layne to death and i know that he usually has a good connection with the crowd. So, this I believe to be him just fighting back at their BS. If Jerry even starting going along with it during the changing if Man in the Box I have to think it was bad. Jerry is typically all business. And, after the concert Layne truly does go to the side if back stage and looks ready to find that guy and kick his ass just like he said he was gonna until management or security talked him out if it. I love Layne. I don't condone calling girls cunts, but I truly believe she must have deserved what she got. This is a great concert, it's funny, and his voice sounds really good, and high energy. Thank you for posting. I have been looking and waiting for some new "old" concert footage to be uploaded as I have watched everything at this point. If you know if any awesome accounts that might have other new things with AIC, reply with their names and I will subscribe to their channel 😊Thank you again. You rock for posting this 👌👍🤘
I am not worshipping anyone. And, I did say it was unusual for him to act like that and I don't condone anyone calling someone a cunt, Layne Staley or not. But despite that, I still thought this was a great concert. I have a right to my opinion. I left a comment. No need to take what I say out of context.
Also, this is rock and roll. Anything can and will happen. It's par for the course. Those crowds treated AIC very bad at the beginning because they didn't believe they belonged on a metal tour...so I understand them getting pissed at some point and saying F it. I am done with being taunted...end of story. It is what it is. I don't see anyone looking at anyone on here as a God. We are just hardcore AIC fans and stick up for em. And since he is gone, it's exciting when someone posts a new video.
William Aubin And of course he was a human being, we, at least I see nothing other than a human being when I see Layne. He was super down to earth and relatable thus why we respect him and stick up for him even when he's gone.
Yeah besides the skinhead incident i don' t recall him being mad at all. Clash of the Titans tour proved they were a tight act and weren't taking crap from anyone. Check "Mike Ziegler" channel, he's got a couple 1992shows
Absolutely LOVE this! Layne sounded freaking amazing and he was taking zero shit that day! The lyrics he changed and the mic stand...haha! I hate the C word when used towards women, but they obviously were stirring it up. Layne was usually so chill. I do know they had to prove themselves big time on this tour and constantly had people throwing stuff at them, booing, etc. They did earn their respect by the end of the tour and the rest is history. Layne will always be the greatest singer in my book. Thanks for uploading this treasure!
Jerry changing lyrics in man in the box and singing them causally like it's totally the lyrics of the song. and Layne, where do I start with Layne, A True powerful Voice and presence, a complete Badass, sweet and down to earth but when you fuck up you're gonna end up down in a hole in the box feeling so lonely till you end up in them bones. Real thing this concert was amazing as much as it's fun and funny. Rest in peace Layne staley and Mike Starrr
Thank you for sharing! I was only 7 when this happened. Makes me respect the opening bands more knowing they were the openers. You never know when you're in the presence of greatness
layne was real pissed off here. i wasnt born to late 1989. i wish i was born decade younger to be at this concert. sure layne was a down to earth guy. disrespectful crowd pretty funny how he changes lyrics to man box. would bin amazing to meet him in person.
🏁🏁🏁🎯THANK YOU and God bless you a million times for posting this great and 💯 rare video footage. Not seeing AIC in concert is one of my biggest concert regrets, ever. They were so great here. They're great now too. Just with Layne and Mike though, my God. My friends and I had the tickets to see them and am reliving it as I type this comment. We were struggling to get down there fighting Los Angeles and Orange County traffic on top of a driver who showed up late. AIC were opening for Van Halen on September 10 and 11, 1991 at the PacificAmphitheater in Costa Mesa, California. I can still feel the tension in that car with an arrogant driver and four 17 year olds fuming at the exponentially increasing odds of missing a concert that we paid for and had been looking foward to months earlier. We completely missed AIC and the first two or three songs into the Van Halen set. I'm still annoyed about it because we loved those two bands so much. It would have been our first time seeing those two bands. I can still remember our driver in the car on the way down there scowling "Opening bands usually suck anyways." A fatal prediction of his. I would do anything to go back and correct that series of events. 1, Find another driver. 2, Ditch school and leave that morning and just wait out the six or seven hours for the doors to open. 3, Buy tickets for both of the nights to enjoy them twice instead of just one time and refuse with my life to allow anybody or anything to impede our ability to see the entire sets of both bands including stage setup and equipment switch out, and soundcheck. Have I proven how truly serious I am about fixing missed concert regrets? Not even torture or death will change my mind.
One of the best four piece bands ever. Heavy, Layne’s unearthly vocals and with Jerry’s backing vocals and harmonies just took everything next level. Mike Starr with his hammer of the gods and Kinney in the groove a monster behind the kit. AIC can’t be compared to any other band.
Thanks for posting this. I can see myself and all my buddies in the crowd right in front of Layne. Slayer took the stage right after this...then Anthrax....then Megadeth. Great show!!!
I saw AIC 3 or 4 times as opening acts during the 1988ish to 1993ish time frame, I never really got into their genius of music until much later. I had my head wrapped up in the headliner acts at that time. Great band, one of the best pure hard rock bands ever.
Thanks for sharing this been watching old AIC shows they killed it so wished I could have seen them live before Layne passed away. RIP Layne, and Mike.
Security in the front had no idea the GREATNESS that was performing two feet away. I would have been facing the stage the entire time. Let the fans kill each other, I would be watching Layne
11:32 what a beautiful time in music history
Layne is the boss here.
They sounded badass..they sure delivered a good show on July 4th of '91 they even look healthy and smiling..[we were only 23yrs old in July 1991]
Insanely good.
They all are
Here
He killed every night no matter what kind of shape he was in
25:11... man of his word
EVERYTHING I HAVE READ AND HEARD ABOUT LAYNE STALEY IS HE WAS A PRETTY NICE GUY SO FOR HIM TO REACT THAT WAY MEANS THE AMOUNT OF IGNORANCE IN THAT CROWED MUST HAVE BEEN STAGGERING
He was just trying to look hard for the slayer fans haha
@@monkeyliver1986 🤣🤣🤣
It's not really his style ay 🤦♀️😂😂😂
Agreed! We need more MEN like him ❤
He wasn't acting like Axl Rose, whenever Layne Staley decided to talk to people that way seemed like it was usually cause of someone who has the ability to act like a big enough asshole that he can be identified in the middle of a crowd of people all jumping around and yelling
Mucho correcto, thanks! Where is the Sacred Masculine that our Divine Feminine relies on? Well, here is a great example 😎💞
Damn layne sounds so good
He had a great voice. Saw them at the Palladium in Hollywood so many years ago and they were great.
And looks good as fuck
Always!
He is the best voice in rock history
Sean Kinney is so fun to watch play drums. What an underrated drummer man
Foreal man, he’s never talked about!!!! So dam good!
Finishes song
Threatens a dude
Walks while slurping his drink.
Fucking legend .
Meet Layne the Legend!
He changed the lyrics to the "Layne's pissed" version of Man in the Box, Jerry followed suit changing his backing vocals and then Layne threatened to personally kick someone's ass in the crowd and MEANT IT until a roadie sidetracked him. I miss bad ass Layne.
You forgot burping😂
I miss these days!
23:49 Layne Staley babys!!!!!!!!
Let's not ignore Sean drumming performance on this concert! Daaaamn, it was amazing, solid!
I agree. No one seems to notice that though. He was on fire.
He is a beast
His drumming is perfection, he is so fast and on beat, a freakin master 👌
Layne was the only one in all the rock n roll history, better live than studio version. Best singer, performance and voice. Incredible and underrated 🖤 #LayneStaley Forever
Raw, powerful and truth 🎤🎤🎤
Truly unheard of for a singer to be just absolutely, incredibly better live than in the studio-- every time❤🙏2❤❤
No, you just prefer live music. Live is a different canvas than studio. Studio is cold product. Live is hot. Libe will always be more energetic, raw, and if the band is good more powerful than possible in studio .
This is the Layne I like to remember. He was such a badass here, Layne "Don't fuck with me" Staley (not an easy audience to play for...kudos to all of the band for such a courage). RIP Layne & Mike Starr
I love how this concert footage is 32 years old and yet it still looks as fresh as if it had been recorded only 5 years ago or something!
Man I would have killed to hear his voice in person
Layne wasn’t taking no shit that night 🤣 he went after several people in the audience all while laying down 1 of the best rock live vocal performances in history. Big balls and talent!!!

Christopher Hickman yea bro but there's tons of great live footage out there....juat gotta dig a little. Or get Music bank the videos
Christopher Hickman live facelift
they did, Live Facelift it's one of the best things they put out...on vhs

One of my all time biggest regrets is never seeing AIC live w/ Layne. Layne was one of a kind
I was at this show in 91 at Weedsport. It was a time of recession so big bands were packaging up and touring. AIC was great but opening for Slayer is never easy. AIC did a great job rocking hard for a very tough audience who came to cut their teeth on metal. I am proud to say I saw this show and am grateful to relive it through this vid.
What did the guy say to layne to piss him off??
@@vincents9620I just stuck with stimulants and I remember everything that era🤣
Hi I was there to best concert ever at my home town Weedsport
@@FACEL1FTHey buddy!!!
Hi.
W album fr.
😀🥰
Aww!! Jerry followed him to the side of the stage. So cute!
Cuz they were like brothers
This vid really highlights how good Mike's basslines were
And he was also a beast on stage, super charismatic 🔥
I prefer Starr. They became like a prog rock band with Inez instead of a rocking grunge band
Jerry was jealous, he wants all eyes on him @@Gcssdvnkloiutesc
A shame the drug use got too heavy although I did enjoy Inez after.
If only Layne also avoided that fate too and kicked it early.
Mikey was a fucking beast..rip
23:50, I always wondered if he could possibly take It up a notch. Best ever!.
I saw them around this time touring with Megadeth. Hadn't heard of them before this but they blew me away!!! Amazing.
Holy shit, he definitely busted the knob off there. that was badass.
FUCK. ME.
17:10 Jerry & Mike head banging in sync perfectly
Superior voice👊
Layne Fucking Staley hey man, how’s life on the other side? ✌️
I would kill to be cussed out by Layne Staley
ctighe413 I would visit hell even
@Des Harris Layne is in hell..
He's in heaven, if such a place exists. Now the people condemning him to Hell on the other hand, who knows where their judgemental asses will end up 😒.
I would have accepted his challange to climb up the stage and have a fistfight with him, would have been badass no matter who won lol
But what actual real fan and lover of Layne Staleys music and true heart n soul would want to beat on him for ANY reason??? The fella had enuff pain in his heart to start with without a so called "fan" wanting to fight him? I'm sure he'd hold his own but would still hurt him on the inside afterwards... How about wanting shake his hand and thank him for their wonderful, soul-healing music and thank him for just being him???
I will never get tired of hearing Layne sing!! Miss you Layne, irreplaceable 🖤
this is gold, folks!
Gold Jerry! It's gold I tell ya!
4:17 Wow Sean is a beast on the drums👌
Sean is on fire! Awesome drumming.
IKR, he is a beast here 🔥
Hellyeah! He never gets enough credit
That is the best version of Man in the Box ever hahahaha
Truly 😂
Was this really the same guy who sang in the MTV Unplugged in 96 damn. From the Layne "IDGAF" Staley to a skinny depressed vulnerable guy it's super sad. Heroin is the devil's powder.
Layne was a bad ass!! ...he even stuck around to kick someones ass after the gig!
Layne was a channel to god himself, and that very god-like resonance flowed through his voice.
Rubbish
Can’t believe how good Layne sounds. Would’ve killed to see him live. RIP to an absolute legend.
It’s so frustrating to see this and know that I can never ever see anything like this live ever
Anyway, thank you for uploading this! It’s so funny seeing him mad like that and so epic seeing the whole band perform with such great energy they all sound really good!
Love this group, one of the best bass players and drummers around.
Absolutely
All members were so good and powerful
Exactly, each one of the members is a master of their art 🔥
This is great quality! Layne sounds exceptional here.
What I would give to know what she did to piss him off so much.... This is such a great video. thanks for posting.
Me too. Honestly, its pretty hard to be called a loud mouth at a rock concert..
Pretty hard to piss Layne off too...
They were booing him, and telling him to fuck off, you suck, all that shit that metal heads do when they hear "new" styles of music.

I see people flipping him off at various points in this video in that area. Fucking dumb asses didnt realize what they were witnessing.
01/22/2023
This is one of my favorite looks that Layne had. At this time, Layne probably did not know all of the trends he was starting, from ripped jeans, hairstyles, wearing sunglasses indoors, etc..,and and then back again to music. I know his voice was all the rave and was used in the vocal mix of many a countless vocalist, aka, studio work.
A reliable source once told me that when Layne’s hair was cut, it was against his will, something about losing a bet that Layne actually won. Ask Sean K. He knows! Layne is always beautiful, no matter how he wore his hair, but at that time, Layne was not conscious of that fact---
Holy shit he sounds insanely good here.
What a singer
23:54, his voice breaks at the end of the note and he makes it even more powerful, fuck this guy has one of the most incredible voices ever.
I dont think so. It was obviously intentional
Layne totally did that intentional. Not difficult to hear :) Just notice how he streched his body while hitting the higher note.
Wasn't a voice break, he went up an octave on purpose and it sounded amazing
@@call-me-dezz Exactly what happened!
had
Dude that was fucking awesome I knew it got heated on the slayer tour, but to see layne act like that is crazy, cause layne rarely gets like that he musta been really pissed
Pretty sure that was the coke talking, lol.
@@neilpeartspurplenose8739 Nah, he was still clean around this time

This version of Man in the Box, lmfaoooooooooooooooooo

@@gsfbffxpdhhdf7043 love it!
But the scream after the solo, damn.
@@marshallartsconner3762 this is the best version of Man in the Box I've heard vocally.
How many of us sing the "Layne's Pissed Off" version of Man in the Box (even when they aren't watching this concert)
21:26 LOL Jerry!
Mike Starr is a beast on bass
Oh yeah n his performance.
It's rare to listen to someone sing as good if not better live like Layne Staley. In 2023 and I'm still listening to 1 of the best to do it.
Layne's vocals were record quality in every show I've heard from 91.. and sometimes even better, like Man in The Box from this show. Dude commanded the stage like a straight soldier, too.

@@headcreeps7198 mike starr was the original bass player in AIC he is the one on stage here. Mike Inez replaced him.
How to steal a stage 101.
For all who wish to know they AIC were opening up for Anthrax, megathdeath, & Slayer... Awesome times! Much love too AIC!
Opened for those bands and then went on to be bigger than all of them in a short time.
Layne is hilarious here!
This must have been an aweful crowd. I knew that in the early days the crowds tended to give them a hard time, but I have never seen Layne get quite this aggressive at a concert in stage.

1, Find another driver. 2, Ditch school and leave that morning and just wait out the six or seven hours for the doors to open. 3, Buy tickets for both of the nights to enjoy them twice instead of just one time and refuse with my life to allow anybody or anything to impede our ability to see the entire sets of both bands including stage setup and equipment switch out, and soundcheck.
Have I proven how truly serious I am about fixing missed concert regrets? Not even torture or death will change my mind.
One of the best four piece bands ever. Heavy, Layne’s unearthly vocals and with Jerry’s backing vocals and harmonies just took everything next level. Mike Starr with his hammer of the gods and Kinney in the groove a monster behind the kit. AIC can’t be compared to any other band.
Thanks for posting this. I can see myself and all my buddies in the crowd right in front of Layne. Slayer took the stage right after this...then Anthrax....then Megadeth. Great show!!!
I wish I knew....but I never forgot that moment. Great to see this show again.
@@meatballstore8600 I envy the HELL outta you,mate. I'd love to have had the opportunity to have gotten that close to my Idol🥰
So cool to see slayer fans enjoy their set, in other gigs of that same tour they had a much difficoult time with the crowd
I saw AIC 3 or 4 times as opening acts during the 1988ish to 1993ish time frame, I never really got into their genius of music until much later. I had my head wrapped up in the headliner acts at that time. Great band, one of the best pure hard rock bands ever.
Thank you so much for uploading it , what a treasure! The boys rocked as always and Layne's voice was savage !
I love to see early concert of bands who are trying so hard to become someone, so much passion in it
You can see, Layne really did try to meet the guy afterwards for a fight and security got him to go. Layne shrugs and leaves. Classic stuff.
Wow, what a great video, damn Layne’s voice was awesome.
This is a great small venue, been there a few times. Seeing original AiC would’ve been awesome. Rock on brother!
Great foorage. Thanks for sharing PJvideoguy.
Yep had to be Clash of the Titans tour bc they had to Duke it out with the audience a few times. Love seeing Layne like that though!
RIP Rock God
Thanks for sharing this been watching old AIC shows they killed it so wished I could have seen them live before Layne passed away. RIP Layne, and Mike.
OMG FREK*** LAYNE'S VOICE DUDE
11:28 lol
FIIIIIIIIIIIRE IN MY CRACK! Layne stop 😂😂😂 22:43
Hahaha Layne the poet
Security in the front had no idea the GREATNESS that was performing two feet away. I would have been facing the stage the entire time. Let the fans kill each other, I would be watching Layne
LOL same
These AiC videos should have so many more views.
23:53 that fuckin high note!
25:24 the Guy: C'mon Layne it's not worth it, let them be. My guys taking care of it.
How do you manage to piss off the band at the concert I dont understand? haha. Amazing performance, studying Sean Kinney. I love his style.
Sean is like dancing while drumming, he is effortlessly good.
King STALEY 👑
Mike Starr rule on this
God help whatever band had to follow AIC at this show. They blew anyone and everyone that went before them or after them right off the stage.
Bob Wilcox slayer followed directly after....
@@lisaneese9401 And that, ladies and gents, is how to make a proper 100% embarrassment of yourself on the internet.
slayer anthrax and magadeath but they aren't even in the same class of six funny how in 91 not everyone figured that out
@@call-me-dezz I think your comment is actually the embarrassing comment
"Can you suck my dick! So bad, ass! Bet many regretted disrespecting what would turn out to be the BEST voice of an era!!
Layne's Superpowers came from his sunglassess 2019
Man this is pure gold, pure solid gold
Man thats the best band ever!!!
que banda, amigos! afiadissimaaa!
