Anybody else going to the Chicago show (Aug 9th)?

While I mostly agree with all of the sentiments in this thread. I think it is possible to look at it another way. Most people seem to be saying that Alice keeps showing us, and playing us, the same thing, multiple times over and that people will not make a great effort to see some of the shows. Just...

"Are you thinking of "Man with the Golden Gun"?"

No,The Out of Towners, although, inspired might a little strong, perhaps just say it is an homage to that movie.

"In all likelihood, the death will be the one already in the RTD show where he gets electrocuted on that big contraption they spent money building and most likely want to get their money's worth out of. http://oi39.tinypic.com/27zuab.jpg" Probably correct, however, if is is 'new',could be the aborte...

Great song, of course inspired by a really good movie.

GNDM wrote" "Just wondering....if this 're-union' thing is being mentioned so often here (on this, a site with more of a solo-Alice lean)" I know Si replied to this, but I was also curious why GNDM, or others, felt this way. Especially since the other comment implied that the forum is more group dri...

I have stated before that I hate the thought of Alice doing a covers lp, but if he does, I would much prefer doing any obscure tunes, or even show tunes instead of classic rock songs such as some of the ones mentioned and played on tour. I think Sun Arise and Hello, Hooray came off much better on re...

">According to Orianthi, A LOT of Cooper's work is tricky and complex on guitar Damon Johnson once told me the same thing (at least, that it isn't as easy as it might appear)." I think the easy comments come because most of the songs have relatively simple chord structures and basic arrangements. Al...

"IF KISS and ALICE COOPER toured together, KISS SHOULD go on first - anything other than that would be just plain wrong!!!


It may be wrong, but guarantee that is the way it would be. Of course, I felt the same way about H&H, Zombie, and Maiden, but understand that the market forces demand this.

I would hate to see Alice touring with Kiss. Unlike, the Zombie match, I am guessing this would clearly be as a warm up, much lik the H&H tour, so a greatly reduced set. I felt the same way about the Maiden tour. Although, at least then I somewhat enjoyed Maiden, I really don't want to see what is p...

Re: John Denver The way I recall Alice telling the story at the time. Alice replied to the comments with "I'll stick around long enough to pee on his flowers." Denver sent him a bunch of roses. Alice sent back a copy of his lastest lp (WtMN?) and a urine sample. Although, even at the time (I was aro...

Found this to be much superior to BP. Primarily, just because of the lyrics, his wit is razor sharp. Not sure how this was any more preachy than BP, they truly go together thematically. Love the was SD&M skewers both the decandence in society and those who complain about the decandence in society. L...

"I will no longer tell others that Sinatra covered Cooper because I no longer believe it's true and therefore it's not worth repeating." Good idea, also don't tell anybody the people Alice paid tribute to were not members of the Hollywood Vampires, either. They were either dead or Alice primarily pa...

Haven't seen a post on this yet. For those that didn't get a bobblehead from the Coyotes game, Cooperstown is selling bobbleheads on e0bay for $20+shipping. Just got mine today, as expected it is the same mold as the Coyotes one, just a few paint details that are different (shirt, jacket trim, name,...

Wow, I can't believe how it as to be either the absolute truth or some hugely fabricated lie meant to decieve a bunch of innocent fans. Perhaps this story, like many of Alice's, developed somewhat organically. Alice meets Frank, Frank says something about liking Alice's ballad and wanting to perform...

"What's your problem with Alice doing covers? I think he's doing them rather well" Glad you like them, but I disagree. The covers he has been doing on tour and in recent one-off shows, I felt were rather uninspired, in that he mostly did faithful renditions of the songs. I just don't see the need fo...

Not a huge fan of Jagger, but I think it is undoubtedly true that he is greater frontman than Alice. Of course, I think almost tons of people are (Roth, Stanley, Coverdale, etc.). Rortunately, Alice hardly ever takes on this role, only in those one-off gigs (Pudding, 100 club, etc.). Because Alice i...

I guess I have different definitions of a theatrical performance than some of the others posting. It seems like by "theatrical" they mean a show repleat with a lot of props (guillotine, magic screen, dancers, etc.). For me, everytime I have seen Alice on stage I see a very theatrical performance, re...
