Re: Genuine American Girl
Well, From my POV since it was Alice singing, it was always "Tongue In Cheek" humor & a nod to the LGBT community. Why shouldn't AC be all inclusive - after all he took a girls moniker nearly 50 years ago!! After the line in BML & the answer "Oh, you wouldn't really understand." Why can't ACG & Ali...

Re: Thoughts On And Ranking The New Album
If you are comfortable with who you are then who the hell cares what anyone thinks. The problem in today's society is that it has lost it's sense of humor. Everyone takes themselves too seriously and is so easily offended or disrespected. I'm a middle aged white guy. Do I give a rat's ass when blac...

Re: Genuine American Girl
MAC is a make-up brand so it's a continuation of the previous line about smeared make-up. And yes I would argue that if you just look at the lyrics themself the character singing can be a woman (cis or trans), a man, neither or in between. In the end of the day if one believes in "the death of the ...

Re: Genuine American Girl
I struggle to find a point in the lyrics where it's obvious that this is from a man's point of view, instead of a woman. Anyone? If Alice hadn't gone on about this in the press, I would have assumed it was a girl who was trying to be something she's not. Read this: http://www.songfacts.com/detail.p...

Re: Thoughts On And Ranking The New Album
So I've been thinking about GAG for a while and I have to talk serious about it for a moment. I'm trans, I'm queer and I'm an Alice fan. And Alice to me has been hit and miss when he used queerness/trans/crossdressing as a lyrical subject. It's certainly been handled as something that is weird and ...

Re: Thoughts On And Ranking The New Album
Speaking of Trump---he used the whole Alice Cooper marketing playbook to get himself elected president. It will only be a matter of time until he mainstreams "the character" and will be loved by the average American housewife. He's halfway there as half of the USA can't get enough of him. The other...

Re: Thoughts On And Ranking The New Album
The Trumpy Song is probably their biggest seller - I believe it was on one of the cookout albums...you know, the ones Alice recorded and forget about during that infamous BBQ at Frank Zappa's house. Hi Padre, how you doing? I hope that you are safe from the hurricane Harvey. I know that GAG is thei...

Re: Thoughts On And Ranking The New Album
Good album, great music and lyrics. Since I am more of an "Edgar Allan Poe" kind of fans, I would say that Paranormal and the Sound of A, are my favorites. I like them a lot. Also, Fireball, I like the sound of it, something you could dance on. The rest is OK. It's a very American, Detroit rock sou...

Re: Thoughts On And Ranking The New Album
O.K., let's do this again. As I said, great music, clever lyrics for most of the songs. Like the cover of the album. Lyrics are important to me. My dark side, Paranormal and The Sound of A. Brilliant. Not sure about the meaning of The sound of A, but Paranormal is a ballad from beyond the grave that...

Re: Would Alice have appeared at Live Aid in 1985?
We saw him, on the medias, installing hearing aids in Rio with Johnny Depp, but, I didn't understand this one... Audiologists install hearing aids, not rock stars or movie stars... Must be a publicity stunt. The hearing aids were purchased using the proceeds from the Hollywood Vampires performing a...

Re: Would Alice have appeared at Live Aid in 1985?
No, he was not at Live Aid. It's not a matter of would, he was not. Alice has his own charity events and on going charity like ''Solid Rock''. I can't recall him sing at any other charity or social issues, like, let's say, the horrible events in Paris. Bono paid tribute to the events, and Madonna sa...

Re: Meet and Greet VIP - Getting on stage
Thanks for your testimonials about your Meet and Greet VIP experiences. Those Meet and Greet experiences are all differents depending of the artist you meet. As an example, I know from a very reliable source, that some Meet and Greets with Lemmy was not really previously organized. I'm not talking o...
