Layne Staley - Alice In Chains
Would? Was the band's tribute to Andrew Wood died in March 1990, with music and lyrics credited to Jerry, and the title presumably a pun on Andrew's surname. Part of the recorded material would appear in Sap and Dirt.

Is Andrew Wood a part of the tournament?
Unfortunately not. and he passed in 1990 so wouldn't have been quite eligible either way :( But he's a gorgeous man and a style icon, so y'know, if there's ever a most attractive 80s musician bracket...

Stoney with Kevin Wood (Andy's brother) ages ago. Can't remember if this was at 1 of the handful of Malfunkshun shows Kevin played with Shawn Smith as the singer or not

“Right after Andy died, we [Soundgarden] went to Europe, and it was horrible, because I couldn’t talk about it, and there was no one who had loved him around. I wrote two songs, "Reach Down��� and “Say Hello 2 Heaven.” That was pretty much how I dealt with it.”
~ Chris Cornell
"With all that’s been written about Temple of the Dog recently, it’s reminded me of the original meanings of those songs,” Cornell later said in a 2016 interview. "Say Hello 2 Heaven”, for example, was one of the songs I wrote directly for Andy Wood and the amount of times someone has requested I play that song for someone else who’s died have been numerous. That’s great that it’s become this anthem that makes somebody feel some comfort when they’ve lost someone, but recently I’ve become a little more possessive of the idea that this song was actually written for a specific guy and I haven’t forgotten that person. So I’ve been reminding myself and those in the audience where that song came from."
