Re: Alice In Chains as Opening Act in Vegas?
Saw this on Mitch Laffon's twitter:

#GnFnR

What do you guys think?
Good choice?
Re: Alice In Chains as Opening Act in Vegas?
Great band, love them & would love to see them live, but not much of an party atmosphere with them I imagine.. I'd have them on the bill, especially at a festival, but to warm the crowd up before GnR??
I can definitely see it happening - & it's been mooted before on here just about everytime GnR head on tour so there's obv an appetite for them. Just.. They're not a barrel of laughs are they?!

Re: Alice In Chains as Opening Act in Vegas?
Interesting choice yet somehow not a shocker. He loves those bands. Was even in the Mad Season reunion last year. I had a feeling they would go the Stones route and take out a variety of huge artists/bands throughout the tour. Guess not.
Wouldn't surprise me if AIC is the opener for the US tour....not just Vegas.
Duff's helping his mates out. Last I heard, he was in talks to write a book about AIC.
Now that would be an interesting read. Duff was in Seattle when grunge was still in its cradle.

Hate to say I told you so but I told you so!
Yes, perfect fit. The ties are strong. Duff with the Seattle guys, Mike Inez on Snakepit...older major act but not an 80s band.

Yes. They are a barrel of laughs. They have awesome metal songs they play regularly. It's not like they do Jar of Flies in its entirety every night. Facelift is a straight up metal record.

Yes I was wrong u were right...I'm surprised tho!
Great choice I've seen them twice with monster truck opening twice...if both bands opened for the gnr "reunion" it may be a perfect gig!

This makes the cost for the tickets a little more justified.
