Along came a Spider tour

Post by tim10cc » Thu Jun 12, 2008 2:06 pm

I am pumped up for a new Alice Album...and a NEW tour!!!


I do mean NEW TOUR.....


for the past 5 years it feels like the tour hasn't changed much...sure there were a few bonuses from each tour....but I hope this setlist is a bit more creative than it was in the past.

I wish the following on the new tour

Devils food/Black widow with the Vincent Price Intro

Some stuff in Alice territory that hasn't been touched or played with for a while

these classics would be nice: My stars, Working up a sweat, Hard hearted Alice, Long way to go, Hallowed be my name


Other songs: Wish you were here, Wake me gently, The inmates, The quiet room

Obscure stuff: Make that money, Tag your it, Clones, Former Lee, Generation landslide 81 style

More later material from Last temptation on up..... Lulaby, Sideshow, Brutal Planet (complete song) Detroit city, Man of the year, Sunset Babies, Is anyone home


if Alice does other peoples songs what about his version of Spirits "I got a line on you"


I saw Alice Last year on the Heaven & Hell tour...and he was an opener and the whole thing just felt rushed and the setlist wasnt that exciting....


ALSO: I know its almost impossible for Alice to drop Schools out ..18 & Billion Dollar babies...but ...I think its time to retire the song "Poison"..."Only women bleed" and replace them with others..that would spice up the tour a bit.


I think the Hardcore Alice fans deserve a set list like this...

The road to hell is littered with nice guys with good intentions.

Well I hate to tell you this, but the tour that starts this summer is NOT the Along Came A Spider tour but a continuation of the Psycho Drama Tour. The ACAS tour starts in 2009. He may throw in a couple of songs or something from the new album but the TRUE tour starts in 2009.

I don't think he could ever retire Poison.It was just too big of a hit.

Plus it always fun to see all the guys raising their hands when Alice says, "Raise your hands if your poison."
PLEASE, save me from this sick man!

I want to hear songs from the From the Inside, Hey Stoopid, Last Temptation, Brutal Planet, Eyes and Dirty and from the New album, and I don't want to hear Only Women, Is it my Body, Be my Lover, Lost in America and the Devils food/Black widow solo...I love this songs, but Alice has 25 albums. It is irreal, that he plays 4-5 songs from one album. 2-3 from Love it to death/Billion/Welcome is enough...I think
Where's my make-up, where's my face ?

And, as it has been pointed out often, Alice Cooper is partly an "oldies act". Alice's hardcore fans will show up no matter what songs he selects.....but advertising and performing obscure (for most people) songs from DaDa, Hey Stoopid, Last Temptation, etc., will not bring in the casual fans or the curious.

On a side note....has anyone heard if AC is trying to get sponsors for next years ACAS tour? Might I suggest Raid, or some other bug spray? ;)

Really strange that Alice has a new cd coming out but the tour is not in support of it.
