Music world praying for band Alice in Chains

Fans, friends and followers of the legendary rock band Alice in Chains are sending prayers its way, and specifically to founding member Sean Kinney, this weekend.

The outpouring of love comes after the band announced on Friday that it was cancelling the rest of its United States tour so that Kinney could concentrate on his health. The tour was slated to begin on Thursday at the Mohegan Sun in Connecticut, but the show was cancelled after Kinney suffered a medical emergency following soundcheck.
