Guitar Lesson: How To Play I Stay Away By Alice In Chains 

As I learn more and more about Alice In Chains I'm very impressed at how much of it he was at the helm of

Layne wrote most of jar of flies’ lyrics I think.

@@jack-uv6mt With the exception of No Excuses and Don't Follow, yes.

Wow what a surprise, the Layne vs Jerry thing even comes into this stuff. Jerry wrote 80% of the music and Layne wrote 80% of the lyrics. I'm glad you like them, I'm sure he'd appreciate all of you dill holes making such an effort to demean his work and give the credit to Jerry.

yjjeeper1 wtf are you talking about you moron

*clink

i should have said at least!

Durr hurr hurr

Lmao hahaa

Really? The rest of the world? Hendrix, Stevie Ray, tons of others as well.

thanks so much for hanging out DSN :) cheers to you!

i know you guys like it when I mess up, that's why I leave it :) good luck Justin!

@@RyanLendt But you persevered and succeeded. That is why you are the way you are now with the guitar. You over came your problems and moved on. A lot of people just do not try hard enough and then wonder why they cant play something. I am a drummer now since i fell in love with drums the day i actually got a kit and played one. I do not play guitar anymore. I ran into a problem today. All 8th notes on the hi hat and ride and then try to add the money beat snare and bass.. Head fudge. I stuck with it till my little brain got it. For someobyd whose foot was stuck on the cloes hi hat for months that was not some small achievment. Fight through the issues and move on. Or give up like some people do. Ohhhhh......its too hard. I am not gifted. I cant do this. Blah blah

I know, but I cannot. For reasons.

Ryan Lendt ... I THINK I gotcha ... I thought cover versions were allowed (unless it’s a monetization thing). Who the Christ knows w YT anymore. Great verbal teaching techniques (making up words that actually get the message across). Good stuff. ✌️👍

Copyright on RU-vid is stupid right now, this is why he doesn't. He'd lose his whole channel

quite a privilege to make your day Kayla :)

yep. not a terribly fair situation for him. But he does a great job.

I think that someone should be you Evo - thanks for hanging out!

thanks friend

thanks friend.

woohoo!

Thanks Lolo - glad to hear it!

thanks for hanging out Jack!

haha I'm glad you feel you've found one :) Thanks Scott!

thanks so much Joseph :)

welcome!

thanks dude.

it never seems to occur to me to do that...

@@RyanLendt , @Markeje is right, hugely helpful (and always appreciated) when you do!

@@RyanLendt personally i appreciate you thanking all the people who asked for it but after that if you could play it a bit too that'd be cool

it's just one note, but it makes EVERYTHING so much easier to sing!

bahaha thanks JLYF

Thanks Dave! I got one coming up for you in the very near future :)

No one cares about post-Layne Chains

Dubble J , Layne’s vocals are amazing and can never be duplicated but that’s not the only reason to listen to AIC. I never try to be the “Man in the Box” pun intended. Cheers 🍻

@@DaveChevelle Fair enough, but nevertheless No Layne, No Chains

hehe

welcome to the party Rich - thanks for the shout!

you're most welcome, Ms Meow - thanks for stopping by :)

awesome - thanks for chiming in pro :)

I bet you'll surprise yourself when that time comes :)

thanks man!

youuuuu're welcome thanks for being here :)

yes, but not so strange considering all AIC songs are a half step down

thanks Daniel :)

thanks jeeper :)

@@RyanLendt hey bro did you ever do the riff for Rotten Apple?

thanks Mike :)!

i think after a doughnut and some spaghetti one could do anything!

@@RyanLendt Breakfast of champions!

fun

greetings William and thank you for the kindness - I fear it's been far too long since I've made this video for me to be able to make a helpful response, so I'll just say that I certainly get stuff wrong from time to time, and you should trust your judgement if you feel strongly about it :)

believe so

that's quite a story of triumph kirk thanks for sharing

of course - thanks Lucas!

thanks OT! the fact is, if I do that I won't make any money off my videos, and this is how I make about half of my living. Say hello to Turkey for me, and thanks for hanging out :)

@@RyanLendt You're welcome.. I got it and ı thank you for your answer. 👍🏻👏

i hear ya :)

the only answer, i'm afraid to say, is just keep trying. It takes time and patience

Ryan Lendt so true well I can do the 2 finger bar chord the opening riff is a bit hard I will try thanks man and stay safe

I think this is a fabulous notion that ought to be investigated by any interested reader - thanks for the thought Beto

thanks Ryan!

rock on Michael

why thank you Norman :)

thanks dude :)

410ce

:)

:)

I love you too ryry

@@RyanLendt no lie... I was first chair trumpet, took piano lessons.... been self taught on guitar for like 9 years now. I have not found a better teacher or experience with learning. You bring this to the table in such an amazing way. I sit here alone cracking up with your videos. Sometimes I have to put the guitar down cause I'm just laughing so hard. Keep it up man. Your a light in this dark world. 🖤🤘

Funniest and my personal favorite guitar teacher

thanks for that Ab :) and thanks for the suggestion!

i'm dubious, but if you can pull it off all the power to you

hahaha more early soundgarden of course!
