#1493 Re: The Sunset Strip » New AIC Album Sept 29 » 908 weeks ago
People aren't dumb. AIC's fan-base and any casual fans KNOW THAT LAYNE IS DEAD. If its that big of a deal, they won't go to the concert or buy the album. The monetary value that they may get out of the name will be insignificant.
Furthermore, what difference does it make if its for the money? None of us will ever know for sure, so we're left to speculate. My speculation leads me to believe that three people wanted to continue making music in THEIR band and felt it was right. If I'm naive, so what.
I'm no lawyer, but if Layne's parents want the money, how does AIC reforming keep money away from them? I highly doubt that Jerry, Mike, and Sean said "oh shit Layne's parents want money...we better go tour for year, then spend a year making an album, then go on tour again." I mean...wtf?

Many other bands have lost their frontman and continued on to success without him - ACDC being the prime example. Hell Van Halen was huge even after the iconic DLR left. He was very much a signature part of how that band sounded.
In a very similar vane as GNR, many people will not give this music a chance. They will immediately discredit it because they feel that the remaining members of the band aren't allowed to use the name because they feel some sort of sentimentality towards what Layne meant to them. Honesty, that is not fair to Jerry, Mike, and Sean.
I get it. Layne was your voice in some dark times and his loss hurt you. I bet it feels like your girlfriend is cheating on you by having them carry on with a new singer...get over it. You are not in the band. Allow the members of the band to do as they please with THEIR band.

you really cant pidgeonhole grunge and write it off. go listen to Facelift by AIC its got some of the best riffs of the era. I Know Somethin Bout You, Sea of Sorrow, and It Aint Like That are some great riffy tunes.

If South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut were in this bracket it would dominate.
At least, it should.
