ALICE IN CHAINS Plays Private, Unplugged Show In Massachusetts

September 8, 2009

According to The Boston Globe, ALICE IN CHAINS set up yesterday at Bokx 109, the restaurant at Hotel Indigo in Newton, Massachusetts, and played a private, unplugged show for Uxbridge resident Rick Demrest and 30 friends. (The unconventional concert was arranged by WAAF.) The band also performed a "proper" show later in the day at the Paradise in Boston.

Michael Marotta of BostonHerald.com reported yesterday that prices on second-hand tickets for last night's sold-out ALICE IN CHAINS show at the Paradise ranged from $150 to $300 on online ticket reseller web sites — a steep mark-up from the $26 face value.

Last month, a Live Nation rep told BostonHerald.com that the show, despite selling out in a hurry, was never a candidate for a larger venue such as the House of Blues or the Orpheum, even though neither venue had a show last night.

Fan-filmed video footage of the Paradise performance can be viewed below.
