Seeing as Alice has so mnay legendary stories about his career/life, I thought it'd be cool to hear everyone's favourite story he's talked about over the years.

Mine is the story about the Chicken. Everyone knows it but I never get sick of hearing it lol.

Probably not my favorite but the Elvis story always makes me laugh

Lots of stories, to be sure, but my favorite is probably him calling Vincent Price for WELCOME TO MY NIGHTMARE. As always, Vincent is great-humorous, but with a touch of menace. Thought I had died and gone to Heaven when I saw two of my favorites together!

Love the Elvis story too, specially when he does his Elvis impersonation.
I like the one in Golf Monster, where he knocks out a woman on the golf course, and then sends her a basket of pain killers and a cycle helmet, while she's in hospital.

When a magazine ran a fake obituary for Rocker Alice Cooper, which sent fans into a mad frenzy. His statement to the public was:
''I'm alive and drunk as usual''.

I like any of his true ones.

I had to think hard but I can't really pick any Alice story..I have enjoyed seeing him being interviewed and being witty but the stories..they haven't really done much for me..maybe its because I saw or read an interview where he admitted telling the occasional yarn etc (can't remember the exact details but probably early 70s)-so Ive never really bought into the various tales- I imagine(no facts) that one or two other ACG members were probably wilder in some ways and might have some interesting tales to tell- think that Alice has done a good job highlighing the perils of alcohol abuse-so anything that he talks about on that subject is more interesting to me.

THE Elvis story on BBC never mind the buzzcocks

I remember him once telling a story about how some kids gave him a box with a cat's heart in it. Does anyone remember that or have a link to that interview?
I think he said it on an American chat show. Maybe Letterman.

Could be. An American CHAT show. Could be.

I forgot the Elvis one lol. Another great one.

Oh... and there is that story about a lady that died beside him, in a plane.

>Maybe Letterman.

It was on "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno", I think.

Always found the Peter Sellers storys to be funny. Imagining. Alice and Peter running around with dart guns.

Thanks.

Steve Wright interviewing Alice on Radio 2, about a decade ago.

"I lost my bank.card, and I went into the bank to get a new one. They looked it up, and said 'we have fifteen Alice Coopers.' I said yeah, mine will be the 'mister.'"

:-D

Some are quite funny, but the chicken one is tired - VERY tired! As GNDM points out, a 'true' one once in a while might not go a miss.

I did/do laugh at the one about the guy in the asylum with him that tells him he is going to kill him when he gets out.
