After reading this I had to break out my Unplugged CD
Such a great, painful album.
One of the best memories of my youth was when I was 19 years old I was writing for a music magazine called The Rocket. I was in Seattle covering a KISW (a Seattle rock station) show at the Moore Theater that had Alice headlining it. This was right after Facelift hit and they had been out on the road promoting it. I did a search and there was actually a video of part of it on Youtube. This is Man in the Box. I am standing about 5 feet off the left side of the stage and Layne blew my hair back with his vocals.
