Far Fetched Tour/Show Idea-Your Thoughts?

[cooperrocks]

I know the odds of this happening are probably unlikely, but I wanted to throw this out an idea for an Alice Cooper Tour/Show idea. One of the things we frequently discuss here are the setlists. I think it can be frustrating for diehard fans who would love to hear a more diverse setlist from their favorite artists because they have seen them live several times. However, most bands more or less cater their song selection to the casual fan who only knows their hits or more popular songs (which is understandable).

What if Alice were to do a tour that features one song off of each studio album and that includes Pretties For You and Easy Action. Would that work for you or not? Granted, it would be a long show, but Alice usually does a ton of songs in his stageshow anyway. Your thoughts?

[Spot and Jerome]

Counting only studio albums, it would be 26 songs so not impossible, though it is probably impossible for other reasons.
Anyway, good game, I'd love this to happen, so here's my setlist:

Levity ball
Mr and MisDemeanor
Black Juju
Killer
Blue Turk
Billion dollar babies
Crazy little child
Steven
Wish you were here
Road rats
Inmates
Clones
Skeletons in the closet
For Britain only - counts for Zipper
Fresh blood
He's back
Roses on white lace
This maniac's in love with you
Wind up toy
Lost in America
Pick up the bones
Sex death & money
This house is haunted
Run down the devil
Vengeance is mine
Last man on earth

I think it is a GREAT idea,BUT I think he would be a bit safe and do the hit off the album if he did this! (for example,"I'm 18" not "black juju")

[Diane D.]

There's no game there... It will be songs from Welcome 2 my Nightmare, with some songs from Welcome to my Nightmare, plus the usual hits, like I'm Eighteen, etc...

[cooperrocks]

I love the setlist Spot and Jerome, that is a show I would love to see. Scotty, I think you would definitely be right but it would be cool because not all the albums were huge hits so even if you heard something like "Freedom" off of RYFAY, it would be cool because it was only heard on one tour. Diane, not trying to be rude but none of us are saying this is a tour that will ever happen. We are simply speculating on whether it would even be possible and if fans would support the idea.

[Inmate]

I think it would be awesome! My picks would be:
1 - Levity Ball
2 - Mr. & Misdemeanor
3 - Black Juju
4 - Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
5 - My Stars
6 - Generation Landslide
7 - Hard Hearted Alice
8 - Steven
9 - Wake Me Gently
10 - It's Hot Tonight
11 - Inmates (We're All Crazy)
12 - Pain
13 - Who Do You Think We Are
14 - Tag, You're It
15 - Former Lee Warmer
16 - Crawlin'
17 - Roses On White Lace
18 - Bed Of Nails
19 - Might As Well Be On Mars
20 - Cleansed By Fire
21 - Cold Machines
22 - Every Woman Has A Name
23 - Love Should Never Feel Like This
24 - Zombie Dance
25 - Salvation
26 - I Am Made Of You

Awesome setlist Inmate. I like the flow of most of your list.

[recoop]

You said far fetched...I'd go for full albums of LITD and Killer in concert..original band survivors plus Orianthi...

[MrD Returns]

I'd just like to see him play more than one song from whatever the latest album is.

you say Alice said there is a new execution in the new show.....i wonder what it is..
Ideas: beaten tp death, strangled, well hard to find....as in "a little things " song
He yet describe plenty of these....

He has to dance himself to death. In a disco. Wearing a tutu.

[danielleV]

Am not convinced by your idea...exept for one thing : i feel like
Alice was to use skeletons dance on stage this time...from the song " DBBF"....
