Not everybody's cup of tea, but why is it an odd idea ???

I bought Schooldays as my second or third (long time ago) album, thrilled by the splendid cover .; ( first albums being BDB and LITD) cannot say PFY was an accessible album whereas Easy Action had many more strong tunes imho. I wonder if Alice(ACG) would have continued in the same line, would we be...

I think they should really shake things up and play "House Of Fire" and "Thrill My Gorilla". They could perform "The Great American Success Story" after 'School's Out". What's the point of this post ? ::((: The point is to point out the ridiculous. Since I have been a member on here I have read cou...

When Alice, Dennis, Michael and Neal doing an public gig. Why do they always have to play the same boring songs? 6 songs from a huge catalogue of great songs that the die hard Alice Cooper fan is sick of hearing. It would be really nice if they left out all "hits" the next time and played for Insta...

Wish I was there :clap: Dennis and Neal (especially Dennis) have probably played a lot more than Mike lately, and I can't imagine there's been much rehearsal for this gig. But as Si says, who cares. It was great seing them together again. I suppose at this kind of events (as at a reunion tour) the a...

From TodayMueller: "Any succesful artist owe his fans a lot." What is your definition of that? I would say all we are owed is the best album he can make at any particular time if he wants to make an album and his best performances during concerts if he wants to continue performing. My only point is...

There are issues in Transylvania as the shops are only open during the daylight...

I would have thought they'd be closed during daylight

I would just like Alice to enjoy what he's doing. He doesn't owe us anything. A new album here and there would be great. I disagree on that. Any succesful artist owe his fans a lot. Many of Alice's fans have stood by him through years of what they thought was crap, in recognition of what they once ...

Well, I'm sure some day it will be released.
After all, there's no point in hanging onto it forever.
IMO, it is the best footage ever, especially 18 and Killer.

Hmmm...

Seems to be a shortage of "decent comments" about this...

Have you heard the LITD demo version.
Awesome !

With the exception of School's Out, Elected and Under My Wheels, I totally agree with Dennis.

WTMN for me, no doubt. While disappointed with OWB, there's some great songs on the album. When FTI came out, at first I was thrilled. Did not know about it before I saw the album in a record store window. The cover suggested classic Alice, no more detective Escargot shit. After buying and listening...

No, please !
That would really be the final blow.
Hollywood Squares and The Muppet Show was bad enough.

Well.... I was just giving, in short, my view on Dennis' book. Of course I should have expected an attack from Amuk. I mentioned the chicken thing because, like me, maybe some one else here might just have missed the interview Amuk is referring to. Obviously, in Amuk's mind, you can't post anything ...

Andy, I was aware that chickens were onstage before Toronto and I'm sure most people here know that too.
But I had never heard that the reason was Glens guitar sounds.

Anyway, I don't think Dennis wrote his book especially for people on this site.

To get back on track in this thread: I finished the book about a week ago, and it's the best Cooper realted book I've read apart from "Me,Alice" (which I know is a lot of fiction, but very entertaining). Dennis goes deep into the early years, which is of most interest to me. Some Things are revealed...

To answer (partly) your question about Fields of Regret: It is included in the demos for LITD. The best f.... version, same as the one on the Chicago Underground boot. So much better than the PFY version. Has Alice's classic voice and guitar parts that would later be included in the title track for ...

Sorry, I wasn't aware.
