[kj] Chris Cornell And Duff McKagan Join Super Group Mad Season

[Alexander Smith]

In my humble albeit ponited opinion, Mad Season were never much to get excited about. As much as revisionists attempt to blur the lines, Alice in Chains were essentially just a metal band with only the most tenuous of ties to the Sub Pop gang.

> Chris Cornell and Duff McKagan have both signed on to appear as part of the grunge super group Mad Season during their upcoming reunion. Cornell will fill in on vocals for the late Alice In Chains singer Layne Staley, and McKagan will step in for Walkabouts member John Baker, who died of a drug overdose in 1999.
