Cooper's stage show has always been more than just music; it's an experience where the audience becomes part of the narrative. Speaking to 96.1 KLPX, he highlighted how the show has evolved: "It's so funny because it used to be easy to shock an audience in the '70s. Now nobody's really trying — we're not really trying to shock an audience. But those elements still remain in the show because they're fun to watch."
The tour follows the release of his latest album "Road", where he delves into the life of a rock star on the road. Accompanied by his seasoned band, including Ryan Roxie, Chuck Garric, Tommy Henriksen, Glen Sobel, and the temporarily replaced Nita Strauss by Gilby Clarke, Cooper continues to be a dynamic force in rock music, his performances a testament to his status as a living legend in theatrical rock.
With a career spanning decades, Alice Cooper has not only shaped the landscape of shock rock but has also left an indelible mark on rock and popular culture, ensuring his shows remain must-see events for both new and veteran fans. Don't miss your chance to get too close for comfort with the master of rock psycho-drama himself.
