Re: The grass isn’t always greener on the other side

The grass isn’t always greener on the other side. As I said in the post above yours, this isn't a "grass is greener" case. She never said she was gone for good. Her initial announcement was that she would not be touring with Alice this fall. That was it. But the "news" sites ran with it, ignoring w...

It would be great if he recorded with Alice again too.
He’s been writing songs with Alice and Bob Ezrin so i would think that he would be the perfect guy to record them, maybe some of them have already been recorded for the Road album, after all Kane is back on the Road with Alice come September!

Re: Nita Strauss Quits

He's obviously referring to his solo band. And you don't get cool points by calling him "Vince." That's his name...the original band i s Alice Cooper... His name is Alice Cooper, he legally changed it in 1974. Do you really think you are doing the surviving members of the original band any favours ...

Re: Toronto Rock 'n' Roll Revival

The promoter for the Rock and Roll Revival found himself in over his head so our managers Joe Greenberg and Shep Gordon offered to take over organizing the festival providing Alice Cooper is included in the show. In the spirit of fitting an avant garde act onto the bill, we were to back up Gene Vin...

Re: Nita Strauss Quits

Kane Roberts seems like a backward step to me. One of the big strengths of the recent years has been the collective personality of the band. Now it'll be Alice and the band and Kane Roberts. His arrival will also see a renewed strong connection with Constrictor and Raise Your Fist and Yell, which w...

Re: Nita Strauss Quits

Only one person is indispensable and that is Alice Cooper. Since the original band split, everybody else is a hired gun no matter how great they are, and as such they have the best gig in the World. I’m hearing Kane Roberts is coming back and he will be perfect, just as he was when Alice made his co...

Hi Dennis,

In this video Alice talks about someone called Becky Weaver being an inspiration for Generation Landslide?

Re: “Elected” Promo Film

Hi Dennis, I’ve always wondered in which city the “Elected” promo film was shot back in 1972? Do you recall? I’ve also heard that Stacy Keach directed the video years before he became famous as an actor. Can you confirm this? He wrote the script, but Hart Perry directed it. Hart Perry also directed...

Johnny Depp joined Jeff Beck on stage at Sheffield City Hall last night! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-south-yorkshire-61631185 I wonder if he’ll make an appearance with Alice in Birmingham tonight or Leeds on Wednesday…🤔 No, he was onstage with Jeff Beck at the Royal Albert Hall tonight.

Re: The makeup question

Hi Dennis. In your book, you describe how the spider eyes makeup came about. (Any self-respecting Cooper fan knows this story... In 1970, Dennis was struck by a theater poster from across the street in NYC, and suggested that Alice paint his eyes.) The result must have had a huge impact on the crow...
