Wanted to introduce the band "MAD
SEASON".... (their Songs are the last Songs on my Playlist)..... i know not alot of Alice
In Chains Fans dont know of them. And, Are Shocked that Layne was in another band

Layne Became Very Secluse.. not answering any calls or opening his door for
Weeks.
Dirt producer Dave Jerden said, "Staley weighed 80 pounds…and
was white as snow."
His Gums had Turned Black, and most of his teeth fell out.
He Just Didnt want to be around People anymore ( Family, Friends, Anyone)
The Drugs Comsumed His Being... and in the CD "DIRT" 's
(LYRICS), ...Layne Knew His Coming* Destiny...

of a "Snarl-to-a-scream" that Touches & Haunts me
Staley's Body, was found on a sofa in His condo. His
body had been in the apartment for two weeks before he was Discovered and, Started to decompose,
