1. List your special interest(s) 2. Give 5 facts about each
I have a few here is one that peaked my interest today, Alice in Chains, the 1990's-present day Seattle grunge band.
1-In 1989 Alice's first demo recording was delayed because the studio/practice room lead guitarist and vocalist Jerry Cantrell rented happened to be located unknown to them next to the largest marijuana grow op bust in the history of Washington state, this happing the day before recording time. The band was forced to spend a night under a bridge with their gear.
2-The Alice in Chains name is derived from Co-lead vocalist Layne Staley's pervious band Alice N' Chains, a glam metal band. Jerry liked the name, he had used the name Diamond Lie.
3-Alice has never had much good luck at the awards table, of all of the major awards shows their only win was for MTV's best movie track for Would? from the film Singles.
4-Jerry Cantrell has primarily used only two guitar models, Gibson Les Pauls and G&L Rampages. Jerry bought 2 all maple Rampages in the mid to late 1980's and still uses them on stage today. The Jerry Cantrell Rampage is the only Rampage made today and G&L stands for George Fullerton and Leo Fender likely making the Rampage one of Fender's last designs to be built before his death in 1991.
5-The 3 legged dog on the cover of their 1995 self titled release is based on a dog that used to chase and scare percussionist Sean Kinney as a child on his newspaper route.
