been looking at Wacken again : great dvd ! the end - all those paper sniplets on stage, the soapbells in the air- reminded me strongly of the first Alice article ever I read : (somewhere round 73 ): the reviewer described a simular view of the stage at the end of the show, paper all around, and the ...

well, we have been spoiled (avo sessions , the excellent wacken video, the TOD dvd) so we saw the same (more or less) show over and over again..
a change would be welcome, but if you see the reaction of the audience at wacken, why would Alice change anything ??

being both a huge alice and McCartney/beatles fan I was very curious to hear this....loved it! it's not about any of these artists putting the spotlight on themselves-they are paying tribute to McCartney. hardly an occasion to play around with arrangements. what tribute would be worse than someone ...

Hells teeth people, surely nobody here really thinks that this song had any influence on this terrible barbaric act. Of course not, but the media is stoopid and lazy. It wouldn't be a surprise if some journalist linked the two if they discovered the song. It's not like they need any evidence of a l...

Never been sold before is also one of my favourite tunes. And although I know WTMNM is generaly aknowledged to be a great album- and I like it a lot- I also listen more frequently to MOL .
Big apple dreaming is a great opener for this album, imho to be compared with the opener for BDB (HH) .

"I always ponder what the songs are on this album that Alice professes to strongly disliking."

When did he say that?

Couldn't it be that Alice was talking about some of the Trash stuff, rather than Mol ?

looking at it right now ! what a great dvd, Alice is top again and what a response from this ( not specific Alice-) public !
great !

[quote="patrick"]could it be I haven't seen an announcement for a plane and simple dvd release ? my fault : i looked at the amazonsection and it stated : audiocd format , so I didn't look any further . (otherwise I would have noticed cd+dvd...) so i went to a local shop and guess what : the copies h...

(btw : I bought the Queen dvd live at Rainbow 1974:: amazing quality of sound and images,and a nice trip down memory lane of that special time period..)

These are different times for Coop now. He's not as creepy as he was years ago. I personally think he wasn't creepy even on WTMN1 : look at the way he performed Some Folks on the dvd, hardly creepy isn't it . But then again, even then Alice didn't want to be creepy anymore ( SO on the muppetshow..) ...

Still, I have the feeling Alice enjoyed doing this album : the lyrics are fluent, the music is overall very melodic, whereas I never had that feeling with ACAS : it sounds to me as if Alice had to force the lycrics into the music lines, which on their own aren't half as fluent as the music on W2MNM2...

great album for me too, as a concept album it works and the end fits too( whereas I did'nt find the end of TLT that great...)
minor details: the talking in the Congregation doesn't work for me, but all the rest, just fine !

title reminds me of the one by Marc Gras :blood snakes and guillotines
(spanish book)
hopefully the pictures in DD book will be of better quality

there might be a (little) chance that covers turn out to be better than the original ;) i mean, mostly I like Rod Stewarts versions better than the originals , see what I mean ? With Eleanor it's different : my friend listened to it the other day and simply thougt it was the original version... coul...

I always wonder what kind of public is there for these books ( NMMNG by MB or Golf Monster by AC and now this one )apart from the obvious one (this public ).
Is there anything known about how well these books are received, is this a news item in America ? ( not in Europe afaik)

totally agree with Shoesalesman ! I hope we'll all do..

I bought it clicking on amazon.co.uk.. , so that might be the reason, you're correct !
problem solved.
amazon.com doesn't display this message..

Alice cooper comic nr 1 : bought my copy going by this site on amazon. The site mentioned there was only one copy in store.. Lucky me ! looking back at the amazon site now , it says : this title is only available for uk customers.. for non uk-alice fans : perhaps not, if you buy it going by this sit...

this cannot be a coincidence any more : Former lee was precisely the tune i had in mind, especially after the text snips that Si mentioned...

I wonder why precisely this song (not that I don't like it). Would Alice have had any say in this ? I saw the Cure performing their song: imo they added nothing that would me make thinking it was them that sang it..To express it in a positive way, very faithfull to the original... Curious to find ou...
