Alice Cooper, the high priest of shock rock, has just announced additional dates for the spring and summer leg of his 2025 U.S. tour, aptly named "Too Close For Comfort."

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.

"Ozempic" Cheerleaders & Baltimore Mayor's Shocking Statement
Is It OK to Celebrate a Child Rapist's Murder? (Audio)

The shocking conversation that needs to happen right now is here. Following the murder of ex-Lost Prophets singer Ian Watkins, convicted of unimaginable crimes against children, the question is simple: Is it morally okay to celebrate the death of a truly evil human being? We dive deep into this controversial topic with a no-holds-barred discussion that uses the Charlie Kirk murder backlash as a yardstick. Where do we draw the line between “murder is murder” and being happy a monster is off the planet? This episode gets dark, raw, and immediately viral-worthy as we tackle this difficult moral dilemma that the mainstream media is too afraid to touch.

Beyond the heavy stuff, Seth airs a personal and unnerving problem: a potential stalker is continually breaking into his home, turning on the gas and flooding the garage. It’s a terrifying escalation that reminds everyone about the very real-world danger of social media anonymity and threatening people’s lives. We also break down the absolute wreckage that...

Gangrene of the Dick! The Horrifying Truth About Harvey Weinstein's Deformity (Audio)

Chris and Erik start the show with a look back at some of the weird stuff they acquired during their divorces, including a bizarre musket lamp and ridiculous framed art. This leads them into an extended riff on collectible items, telemarketing scams like the Highlander coin collection, and ‘of the month’ clubs for everything from plates to film. The guys then transition to discussing old TV shows like Columbo and Twilight Zone, reflecting on how much the world has changed, especially regarding how crimes are solved and the general ‘70s aesthetic. Finally, they dive deep into the messy truth about the music business, discussing Steven Pearcy‘s generosity on tour, why paying to open for bands like Texas Hippie Coalition and Tesla is often a losing game, and the new, internet-focused approach to building a music career.
