I Am An Alice Cooper Fan

Saw the Killer concert at the Forum in Montreal in 72. It was like musical theatre in the extreme

I think “Killer” is one of the very best albums he put out. In Junior High, I was in 9th grade, he was a very hot ticket for a concert. The shenanigans he pulled ie waring spit out of a hat were infamous.

@Pfuzylogic He came out onstage alone with just a spotlight on him at the start of the concert. He had a boa constrictor wrapped around his neck and a whiskey bottle in one hand. He talked awhile and then they started. he staged a street fight, did a hanging, had big balls filled with glitter dust they threw into the crowd and they would explode all over you. I was doing acid and believe me I was mesmerized lol
had Doctor John doing his New Orleans boogie for an opening act. He was excellent too

@OldHippie
Really nice opening act.
I doubt many rocks shoes really compare to what you saw.

@Pfuzylogic it really was theatre then, most of the top bands did more than just stand there and play, watching cooper was like being at a play, there was a lot going on
