[Watch] Phil Anselmo and Duff McKagan join Alice in Chains on-stage for “Would”

You read that headline right! This clip is from 2006:

It also reminded me of another time Phil and Duff shared a stage for one of my all-time lifting anthems, with all the members of Loaded coming out to join Down for Bury Me In Smoke in 2011:

In case you're wondering where my usual daily blog about fitness is, I WAS working on a very personal #WeightRoomWednesday post about how the gym helps me keep my mental health under control. (Of course last week I also promised this week would be a sequel to "Dont Let D-Bags Keep You From The Gym" called “Hard Truths About Those Intimidating Stares At The Gym”.)

One thing the gym has taught me is sometimes you gotta call an audible. That’s exactly what happened when I saw that top clip came through my feed 20 minutes ago. (thanks to Rockaholic Bryan!) I had to. This blog is writing itself as I type.

Between Down and Pantera, Phil Anselmo is probably the voice I’ve heard the most in the gym. Seeing him on stage with Seattle royalty like Duff and Alice in Chains (both Pain in the Grass alumni too!) was too rad not to share.

Down With The Fitness is USUALLY here to give you simple, actionable tips that will improve your health. If you want some of thosel, feel free to check out the archives cuz today is just about awesome concert footage (which is all I blog about in some alternate universe). I'm pretty proud of the rabbit hole this thing has become.
If you have any questions or comments, you can get direct access to me in the Down With The Fitness Facebook Group. More rad concert footage is always welcome there! It's also the most algorithm-proof way to make sure you see future posts!

Have fun and do your best,
