Nov 13th '87 Albany (Troy), NY, (Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute) RPI Field House (w/ Frehleys Comet, Faster Pussycat) - Ace Frehley apparently quit the tour after this show, it's suggested because they were losing money (although it was announced at shows that Frehley was ill).

Nov 25th '87 Nashville, TN, Municipal Auditorium (w/ Frehleys Comet (cancelled), Faster Pussycat) - Possibly rescheduled for December 9th as there is a listing in The Tennessean on Dec 8th for a show here on December 9th (w/ Faster Pussycat).

Nov 29th '87 Biloxi, MS, Mississippi Coast Coliseum (w/ Frehleys Comet (cancelled), Faster Pussycat) - An extremely faded ticket exists, but is so faded it's hard to read anything on it. It IS from this show though confirming it happened.
Dec 3rd '87 McAllen, TX, Villa Real Convention Center (w/ Guns'n'Roses) [Ticket] (OR Oklahona City, OK?) - Somewhere around here Faster Pussycat appear to have also left the tour. While they are advertised as playing some of the same shows Guns'n'Roses played there appears to be no evidence both opening bands ever played the same show.
Dec 4th '87 Dallas, TX, State Fair Coliseum (w/ Guns'n'Roses)[Ticket]
Dec 5th '87 Houston, Texas, Sam Houston Coliseum (w/ Guns'n'Roses) [Ticket][Photos exist]
*Dec 6th '87 Belton, TX, Bell County Expo Center - This is listed on a rare itinary sheet. Did it happen?
Dec 7th '87 Edinburg, TX, Edinburg Pan American University Field House (w/ Guns'n'Roses) - Preview in McAllen Monitor has "Funs & Roses" as special guests. - an itinary lists this as San Antonio, TX Majestic Theatre. while another one lists December 7th as cancelled! He did play that venue on January 14th 1987. Did this show happen?
Dec 8th '87 Midland, TX, Chaparral Center (w/ Guns'n'Roses, Faster Pussycat - advertised but probably didn't play) CANCELLED on the day of the show due to low ticket sales (Odessa American December 8th).
(Dec 9th '87 Nashville, TN, Municipal Auditorium (w/ Faster Pussycat - advertised but probably didn't play) - Possibly rescheduled from November 25th but seems unlikely. There is a listing in The Tennessean on Dec 8th for a show here on December 9th (w/ Faster Pussycat). It doesn't give the specific town, just "Municipal Auditorium' under "Nashville Area". Locals would presumably know what they were refering to but this seems the obvious venue. Likely a mistake in the newspaper.)
Dec 11th '87 Cape Girardeau, MO, Show Me Center (w/ Guns'n'Roses) [Ticket][Local Listing][Eye witneses and a couple of photos]
Dec 12th '87 Louisville, KY, Louisville Gardens (w/ Guns'n'Roses, Faster Pussycat - advertised but probably didn't play) [Ticket][Local listings][Review in Louisville Courier-Journal December 19th]
Dec 13th '87 Alice's father, Ether Furnier, passes away in Phoenix, AZ. As such at least one show was posponed while Alice dealt with the loss. The funeral was apparently December 16th.
Dec 13th'87 Musegon, MI, Walker Arena (Postponed until January 26th 1988) -
Were there other shows posponed or cancelled? The December 17th show certainly happened so Alice could only have been away for a few days.The Minneapolis Star Tribune reports the St. Pauls show will go ahead after previous shows (plural) in Michigan this week had been cancelled. This would suggest there is at least one more show we have no information on between December 13th and 16th. However the Muncie Evening Press reports on Mr Furnier's death and mentions two dates in Wisconsin were cancelled! So which is it, Michigan or Wisconsin? Well, we have a date in Michigan, so there must be another show in Wisconsin we don't have any info on. It can't be the Madison, WI show being postponed as adverts for that exist before the death. Now... Wikipedia lists GnR on three dates, 13th Dec at Muskegon, MI LC Walker Arena, which we know, then they have December 15th at Marquette, MI Lakeview Arena and December 16th at Duluth Arena, Minnesota. All three are crossed through demoting cancelled. That would all more or less fit with what little we do know.
(Dec 15th '87 Marquette, MI, Lakeview Arena (w/ Guns'n'Roses) - Listed on GnR wikipedia as Cancelled.)
(Dec 16th '87 Duluth, Duluth Arena, MN (w/ Guns'n'Roses) - Listed on GnR wikipedia as Cancelled.)
Dec 17th '87 St. Paul, MN, (Roy) Wilkins Auditorium in St. Pauls Civic Center (w/ Guns'n'Roses) [Ticket] - Adverts says "St Paul Civic Center Forum" and the Wilkins Auditorium seems to be inside that building. The first advert and local listings still list Ace Frehley's Comet and Faster Pussycat.

(Jan 29th '88 Greensboro, NC, Memorial Auditorium? (w/ Motorhead) - No mention of this in local listings (although they list Kiss on Feb 3rd). Greenboro is less than 90 minutes from Charlotte, NC which we have a date for the following day. Would they really do two shows so close? All we had was the town name from somewhere. The venue is a guess basd on where other bands played in the town (there's also a greensboro Coliseum). With no local listings and nothing else to go on I would guess this didn't happen unless some proof turns up.)
Jan 30th '88 Charlotte, NC, Charlotte Coliseum (w/ Motorhead)[Local listings][Ticket] - Recording exists.
Feb 3rd (and 4th) '88 St. Johns, Newfoundland, Canada, Memorial Stadium (w/ Motorhead)[Ticket](Poster exists)(w/ Motorhead) Recordings of both bands exist. Phil Taylor's drum tech says there were two shows in St John's, so the second would be February 4th.
“On a pleasant note, it took some effort to get to some of those venues. I remember going up to a gig in St. John’s, Newfoundland. We had to load all our stuff on a ferry and it was f...ing freezing, so cold that it bit straight through you, and there were icebergs in the water. In the middle of the night, we came out of the cabin to get something out of the bus and I slid all the way across the deck to the railing and nearly went over into the f...ing sea. The story of the Titanic has fascinated me for years (well before the film and all the fuss) and the whole time I was thinking,’This is what it was like when the Titanic went down!’ ’cause we were at the same latitude. In fact, our next date was in Halifax, Nova Scotia, which is where they brought all the bodies.”

Feb 27th '88 Chandler (Phoenix), AZ, Compton Terrace, Firebird Lake (w/ Motorhead, Faster Pussycat) [Ticket][Local Listings][Preview in Arizona Repulblic Febuary 26th]
Alice, jokingly, suggests in an interview that he would be willing to run for Arizona Governorship. The story is repeated in newspapers nationwide, not always acurately with some wording the report to suggest he was serious:
"Rock Singer Alice Cooper returned to his home town for a weekend concert and mentioned that he also will be running for Governor - On the Wild Party ticket.
More than 80 people already have entered the special May 17 election promped by the recall petition campaign against impeached Gov. Evan Mecham. Cooper, who says he bought his first automobile from Mecham's Pontiac
dealership in nearby Glendale, said he will join the throng seeking to unseat the conservative Republican.
"I'm definitely a write-in candidate," Cooper said Wednesday. "Hey, I'm a native, I'm a registered voter. I represent the Wild Party
and I even have a campaign slogan: "Alice Cooper - A troubled man for a troubled time."
Feb 29th '88 Denver, CO, (w/ Motorhead) So far I've found no details about this one. A few sources mention the Phoenix show as being the end of the tour so did it even happen?

April 6th '88 The Daily Mirror reports attempts to Ban Alice from the UK
An outraged MP last night called for the a ban on shock rock star Alice Cooper after his first British gig at which young fans fainted, threw up and were splattered with buckets of blood.
Outspoken Sheffield politician David Blunkett stormed: "I'm horrified by his behavior - it goes beyond the bounds of entertainment".
He added: "Its an indication of the sick society we're moving into and something drastic should be done to protect young people from paying for this sort of obscenity".
During the show there is a hanging sequence, a baby is torn apart, a mother sliced down the middle, and a beautiful girl has her throat cut.
At the climax of the one-and-a-half hour performance young fans in the front rows are soaked by gallons of theatrical blood.
But 40 year old Alice is unrepentant "Its nightmare In Elm Street put to music!" he said "Its a rollercoaster ride - a fast cheap thrill".
White Hot Club photographer Joe Bangay, who saw the opening night says: "I saw kids faint. Alice has gone too far".
While all this is going on, Alice and Sheryl go to the theatre to see 'Phantom Of The Opera'
April 7th '88 London, England, Wembley Arena (w/ Chrome Molly) [Ticket]
Kerrang: "Alice Cooper had a bad experience on the last night of his Wembley dates when the safety device failed on the gallows which Alice uses to perform on stage. A shaken and shocked Alice had to be cut free from the noose which had tightened around his neck and he suffered severe bruising on his neck as a result of the accident. Needless to say the man is such a professional that he continued with the full show despite his injury. "

April 18th '88 Osnabruck, Germany, Stadthalle (Show reportedly Censored - although video seems to contridict this.) (w/ Chrome Molly)
The German-Bavarian government did manage to have one of Alice's shows modified in 1988 due to reports from the UK of extreme violence.
Kerrang: Alice Cooper's recent tour of Germany was hit by censorship and protest about the content of his stage show. Following reports in the English tabloid press about girls fainting in horror at Alice's antics, he was forced to drop sections of the show that involved spearing baby dolls on his sword, axing a female mannequin, disemboweling a pregnant woman and splattering fake blood.
Alice commented: "The most important thing was to play a show, even a censored one, for fans who've waited so long for me to return to Germany. I'm sorry that they didn't get to see the entire show, but they seemed to enjoy each night just as much as if we hadn't changed a thing."
Elsewhere in Europe, the full show was performed without incident, and the irony seems to be that the storm created in England that led to the ban was begun by a blind member of parliament!
Safely outside Germany, Cooper's parting shot was: "It's hard for an American to imagine anything as too violent for Germany".
