Strong Response Shortens JERRY CANTRELL Benefit Auction

November 5, 2007

Due to the overwhelming response and to accommodate eBay regulations, Jerry Cantrell's "closet auction" will now conclude on Thursday, November 15 at noon EST/9 a.m. PST. The auction, which began today, features some of the ALICE IN CHAINS guitarist's favorite clothes from key moments in his career. The auction will benefit MusiCares and the Layne Staley Fund. Click here to see the available items. The auction is open to anyone who has an eBay account. Interested collectors should also mark their calendars for the annual Grammy charity holiday auction from November 26 through December 6 at www.ebay.com/grammy.

ALICE IN CHAINS singer William DuVall recently posted a message online about the new music that the band has been writing. DuVall wrote, "As it says on the ALICE IN CHAINS website, we've been working on new material. The first in over 10 years. It's been deeply rewarding and the stuff is insane."

DuVall's comments were the first made publicly by a member of ALICE IN CHAINS regarding new music from the band, although reports surfaced earlier this summer that the band was writing new songs.

ALICE IN CHAINS reunited last year, with DuVall on vocals, for its first live dates since 1996. Original singer Layne Staley died in 2002.

ALICE IN CHAINS' 1996 "MTV Unplugged" album was reissued on September 18 with a bonus DVD featuring additional songs left off the original version. The tracks are "Frogs", "Angry Chair" and "The Killer Is Me".
