or like kiss without ace and peter-or motley crue without vince neil. some of these bands should just shut it down if they are not going to get back together. mainly if you lose lead vocals. i seen warrant like 4 years ago without jani lane, replaced by the old lead of black-n-blue . now that was a joke. i really didn't keep up-friends got me a free tick and asumed they got back together. got thier and was like what is this crap

To disregard what Staley contributed to the band just because he was a junkie is ridiculous. Some of the greatest artists of all-time have had problems with drugs.
these druggies and alcholics just didn't give anything to music because of thier addictions- hendrix-joplin-bonham-keith moon-brian wilson-bon scott-steve clark

Jerry Cantrell has perservered and soldiered on and to see him again on the SPAC stage will be awsome. I'm lookin forward to Slash too and I hope Jerry can join VR for a tune.

the SPAC is the greatest! I've seen DMB there a few times (maybe 5 times), the Allman Brothers (my bro and I almost got arrested), and The Dead (featuring Warren Haynes - they closed with Layla, it was awesome!).


I havent seen concerts at too many places but I absolutely love the SPAC. Its the greatest place to tailgate and the venue is SPACtacular!

Been awhile since I've seen a show at SPAC...but over the years have seen a bunch of great shows there...Clapton, Santana, Allman Bros, Dead, Seeger, Raitt, Buffett, James Taylor, Who, Crosby Stills & Nash, Marshall Tucker, Charlie Daniels, 38Special, BB King,.... even remember Cat Stevens put on a good show there a few years back.

Seen some good ones there from 1981 thru 1991.....

Tom Petty (3x), Asia (25 years ago today!), Steve Miller Band, J.Geils Band, Genesis, Talking Heads, David Gilmour, Billy Idol, The Cars (that one suck! "lip-sink"), Foreigner w/ Joe Walsh, Huey Lewis & the News, REO Speedwagon w/ Cheap Trick, Eric Clapton, Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band (only time he played this area), Roger Waters, Jethro Tull, Robert Plant, Judas Preist w/ Cinderella, Aerosmith w/ Guns N' Roses (opening act), B-52's, Heart & the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" show, the last time I was there (9/2/91). Saved all my ticket stubs! Was going to the Black Sabbath concert there a few years back (but they cancelled) The day of the 2002 Travers (in the rain) was supposed to go see Sammy Hager & David Lee Roth that night, but decided to go the harness track instead and hang out with Jerry Bossert (one of Steve's favorites...LOL!)

It was "hotter than hell" that day (same day as the '88 Whitney when Personal Ensign beat the boys!) Was at the track in the afternoon when one of those "Saratoga thunderstorms" rolled in, I remember it was right at first post (High Brite, won the race for Lukas). My buddies were by the fence, while I was placing bets for them (they got wet! ) Anyways, G N' R started on time (one of the few times) since they were the opening act. They blew Aerosmith off the stage that night!
