Alice in Chains have returned to the road, but ahead of their touring the band offered some insight about what might be coming to buyers of their VIP ticket package. The band shared their rehearsal setlist in advance of the tour, showcasing a wealth of material that may be considered for shows on their current run with Breaking Benjamin and Bush.
“It’s been too long and we are ready to get back out on the road. We’ve been rehearsing the past couple of weeks and it feels good to be playing together again. We want to give our VIP buyers a sneak peak at our rehearsal set list. Hold on to this to see which ones made the cut for your show,” stated the message sent to VIP package buyers, followed by a listing of 35 songs out of their catalog they were working through in advance of the tour.

Most notable is “Sea of Sorrow,” the Facelift album song which according to Setlist.fm was last played on Oct. 29, 1991. Other tracks that have been held out of sets for sometime include “A Looking in View” (last played in 2014), “Acid Bubble” (last played in 2015) and “Rotten Apple” (last played in 2015).
