Do you think Alice in Chais should have continued without Lane Staley


I saw them live with velvet revolver in 07 and I liked the new singer (William Duvall)

but I want to hear what you think

I saw Alice In Chains with Layne Staley 3 times throughout their career...when they nearly got booed offstage opening for the Clash of the Titans Tour, and then a year or so later when Dirt came out and everyone loved them now, headlining and at Lollapalooza...I have not seen them with the new guy, however, much of what made Alice In Chains the band that they were was not just Layne Staley's voice, but his abilities as a song writer and lyricist as well. Don't get me wrong, Jerry Cantrell is a great writer, but his solo albums, to me at least, never really hit me the same way as Alice In Chains music and lyrics did, and I feel that any new version of Alice In Chains would lack certain characteristics that made them who they were, if they were to re-form and record new material without Layne Staley...I mean its almost like asking if Krist Novoselic and Dave Grohl should re-form Nirvana and tour...No matter who else is in the band, its not Alice In Chains without Layne, just like it could never be Nirvana without Kurt...
