I think it was Chris or Rob that said last week or so that the 7th or the 12th was going to be the final cut off day for announcements. I could be wrong but I am sure thats what was said. Though they may push it back becuase of the "BIG" Ozzfest announcement tomorrow.
And they dont want thier thunder stopped by that.

The Ozzfest announcement has been leaked.
Not really a big deal unless you care about Alice in Chains or Pantera.

We may be announcing something this week, but most definitely on the 12th (Monday) since the 9th (this Friday) is our deadline for being done with the lineup.

Uh, he's kind of dead. It's pretty hard to perform when you're taking a dirt nap.

Why is that such a challenge? The Rolling Stones are all half dead and they still tour the world every year.....
Damn excuses!!!!
(And by the way, before anyone has a hissy-fit, I did know Layne passed away)

I think you might poop a little when you hear who our next band is.
Announcement may be coming as early as today...
Stay tuned...

Except for the AIC songs that JC sang
Anyhow, JC's solo band is damn good. I have to imagine he played some AIC songs when he did his tours. I didn't see AIC when they came through though recently. I love the band. But since I don't go to shows often, I wasn't going to go see a show where it would have felt almost wrong without Lane up there.
Sure many bands survive post singers. Black Sabbath did it. And Ozzy was a big part of their sound. But the band changed to fit the new singer. If AIC puts out a new album fine, but just doing the old material with a 'new' singer seems wrong.

I'd genuflect in Rob and Chris' general direction if it was Primordial. Primordial would also create an instant RoyalCarnage gathering.
I am a ProgPower guy. But these days, I buy a lot more extreme metal than Prog and Power.

I was at the Chicago warm-up show AiC played at Metro last spring. I've seen a lot of shows in that venue, but I've never heard a crowd go that wild for anyone.
Cantrell had some guitar issues, and a seemingly idiotic tech that the crowd looked ready to kill, but other than that they were very tight. William Duvall isn't Layne Staley, and I didn't really want him to be. He was faithful to the spirt and the style of the songs, and sounded quite good when paired with Cantrell. Most of all, he was incredibly humble and respectful, if not reverent. When he first spoke to the crowd he alluded to the tour as "The Finish What We... no, Finish What They Started Tour." It didn't seem canned, corny, or contrived, but sincere.
In my opinion, AiC could easily go forward with him on vocals, and it would be a shame if they didn't record some new material. AiC would never reach the commercial heights of AC/DC, but I think they have their Brian Johnson in William Duvall.
