Alice Cooper
 

I saw that decrepit motherfucker last night for free at the Taste of Minnesota. He played alright. He played "Is it My Body" which was a treat. Sonic Youth did it better though.
Have you ever seen his stage show? It is pretty wierd. The motherfucker comes out of a coffin, and gets beheaded and all sorts of shit. He does a little S+M dance with his daughter too.

I had a chance to go see him. I decided to sit at home instead.
The only song of his I really know is School's Out.
S&M dance with his daughter!?
I thought he was a sunday school teacher or some bullshit.

I don't know about the sunday school thing.
But yeah. His daughter comes out with these whips and they grind for a little while. We only knew it was his daughter because the girl we were with was her friend. She lookes kind of skanky.

What a loser. Who goes to taste of Minnesota?

the same people that paint ducks for postage stamps...like the fictional character of Norm Gunderson, maybe?

But hey, Alice Cooper was playing for free.

Ahh. I sure as hell don't go.

Dali was a fan.


Unfortunately, all the best pictures of it (which I posted at the old board along with some pics of Alice & Dali, are no longer on the internet.)

I have this one Alice Cooper bootleg that is just, well, killer.

after hearing about his stage show, this confirms how awesome jim henson was to have him on. i'm sure there must have been people who hated him and henson threw him on a children's show. love it.

funky seventies welcome to my nightmare...i think i remember seeing this...(I suppose probably when it first aired)
Sesame Street is a great one too (which is still on, but not as much) & The Muppet Show was very funny & had some good guests too. Some station, maybe TBS, used to play the reruns a few years ago.

Alice Cooper is fun. One of the first rock albums I heard in its entirety was Billion Dollar Babies which my uncle let me borrow probably ten years ago. I have my own copy now, as well as others of his. I really enjoy Love It To Death. He's a lot of fun. Remember when he was in the Wayne's World movie? That was hilarious.

I don't remember your uncle in Wayne's World.

Neither do I.

"isn't 'milwaukee' an indian name?"
"yes pete, it is, it comes from 'mili wau ke" which means 'the good land'"
"i was not aware of that"
"what i think is interesting is that milwaukee is the only major american city to elect three socialist majors"
"does this dude know how to party or what?"

everybody knows alice cooper lost his spark years ago, he's been a has been since the 80's, but his 70's stuff is untouchable.

its good stuff
love "killer" and "billion dollar babies" albums
