When will Alice start his new show with ACAS theatrics

[mestreech]

Hi,

maybe I missed something but there should be a new stageshow for the European tour in november.
Is this correct??

no, the new show will start next year.(Germany will get the psycho drama show like everyone else.)
Although rumor has it that it will be the last hanging. It will be retired after this tour.

Ah duh, does that mean I'll never witness the hanging? We didn't get it here in Switzerland due to technical reasons. Not fair! (this seems to be my favourite expression today for some reason!)

I would have retired it when I broke my ribs!!!!

[sparkinthedark]

If it were me (which of course it's not, but hey ho)I'd have retired it for good after the first time it did me harm! Not that the rib breakage was as a result of performing the hanging but it must have hurt like a very hurty thing performing it whilst he was still on the mend!

I wonder if it will mean a return to the guillotine or if something completely different will be introduced instead? Always fun to wonder. I'm looking forward to the next tour - I need a fix!

I miss that pic of you with alice!!

I feel something new killing wise for the coop in '09,but what?? that is the question my dear sickies!!!

If the rumor about the hanging is true, than I'm glad I saw it four nights in a row.

And regarding other methods of death for Alice... I believe there's an old thread with some interesting ideas, but be damned if I can find it at the moment.

I Still say Alice being eaten by a giant spider that creeps out from under the stage ( just the first 4 legs or so are visible the rest is surrounded by fog ) the first legs grab our fallen villian and pull him into it's teeth or visually underneath it as it bites down into his chest the blood goes flying. A moment like when the shark catcher gets eaten in Jaws pops to mind. Very powerful type stuff there. Not too pricey and not too dangerous, but very cool with it's glowing red eyes peeking out from underneath the stage every now and then. Of course this goes into a delusional fantasy I have about Spider Building a Spider from his victims to Kill and eat the one waiting kill and eat him.

My hopes for the stage are likely NEVER going to be anywhere near the stage I have in my head. with all the webbing and screens and silk bags.

Don Giovanni is an opera with a simular problem.
How will the Don give up the ghost ?

Dramatic and theatrical stuff .... like it, we should send it to the Coops people

[Mr. Skull]

a little bit less spectacular than we're expecting ?

[kevinuk81]

How has the post subject changed between Railwaymans post and Mr. Skulls post?

[Jaded]

He changed it Kevin...

[kevinuk81]

Well that is a fine thing to do, making us oldies more confused than usual.

[Mr. Skull]

[kevinuk81]

So report it to the powers that be!

Same here. The more I think of it the more I picture a very Steampunk stage. I even know who I'd hire to do that, a guy I came accross on deviantArt. The current stage clothes are already going that way so it would fit. That amazing long coat that Alice wears on the promo photos is so perfect.

Here's what I see: a dark place with gears and rusting mechanical pieces everywhere. [very easy to do in light materials ] little "cells" and all sorts of horrid looking devices, the scalpels and other tools.. And just a few yellowish lights.
During the "out of album" (I mean not ACAS)songs lights are stronger the "cells" are closed by curtains so you never really see what's in them (probably pieces of the victims...)
Of course cobwebs everywhere (shudder) and bones [hey you can recycle the ones from the Brutal Planet show ] Also taxidermised animals hanging in the webs[like in Shelob's Lair in the Lord of the Rings?]

I even have ideas for "trinkets" to add to Alice's stage clothes. If only I actually had the time to make them *sigh* I'd also love to do some concept sketches..

And I should stop before I flood the forum, there's much more lurking in the back of my mind.
