ON THIS DAY, February 8th, 1993, ALICE IN CHAINS' Layne Staley pulled a guy on stage who had spent the entire show performing Nazi salutes and threatening audience members. It didn't go well for the nazi.
During the Cirkus show in Stockholm, Sweden, a man in the audience was performing Nazi salutes, while pushing, and threatening other spectators. Layne noticed the behaviour and, at the end of the song "It Ain't Like That", invited the man onto the stage.
Once the man was on stage, Staley punched him twice and pushed him back into the crowd, where security personnel then ejected him from the venue. As he was being led away, Staley shouted into the microphone, "fucking Nazis die".
The man later reported Staley to the Swedish police, who opened an investigation. Staley and a guitar tech initially left on a ferry to Finland, but the rest of the band was detained and had their passports confiscated until Staley returned for questioning. The case was eventually dropped, partly because the man's own brother defended Staley's actions to the authorities.
