Re: Alice UK presale 10am tomorrow

Sounds like there were a lot of decent seats up for grabs for a change. No such joy at the Glasgow Hydro, which always seems to have vast amounts of the more forward rows tied up with different suppliers. It's going to be interesting to see how many Primal Scream fans show up, as I doubt many of the...

Re: UK Dates 2024

Looking forward to the ticket fun. No doubt with the usual 800 different outlets and multiple presales, none of the latter having particularly good tickets.

I'm far from enthusiastic about Primal Scream.

I'll still be going along though.

Re: Alice Songs That Went Over Well Live but Are Rarely Played

It's long been said that the band want to do Yeah Yeah Yeah , which was only ever done on the Killer tour. Alice indulging in the harmonica during live shows again makes this the perfect time to resurrect it. I heartily agree with Si that Black Juju and Inmates (Were All Crazy) are long overdue a li...

Avant-garde Music

Hey Dennis, You've spoken in the past of your love for avant-garde music and how passionate you were about it in the early days of the band. Do you still listen to that type of music on a regular basis? Do you ever find yourself writing music along those lines anymore? And, say somebody with a bunch...

Re: BSB 50th anniversary 2cd / 3 lp out in March

I've got two vinyl copies of Billion Dollar Babies, but none of the more recent reissues.

And I've got the deluxe CD.

Still might go for this. Will need to think it over.

Re: Empire Pool (Wembley) 1972 Setlist

I agree that setlist.fm is very handy, but it's also true that it can be wildly inaccurate in places. I've seen setlists from gigs I was at that aren't much more than 50% correct. I was reluctant to ask Dennis because it's a big ask for him to remember specific setlists from 50+ years ago. I suppose...

Empire Pool (Wembley) 1972 Setlist

I don't suppose anybody on here happens to know for certain what the setlist was for this gig? It was officially the end of the Killer tour and should have had the same set from around that time, but I've seen at least one claim that Gutter Cat was performed that night, which might be possible due t...

The 'Secret' Next Album

Was thinking of posting this at the start of 2024 but, since it’s so relatively quiet on here at the moment, how about some thoughts/wishes for the hush-hush new album? Here are some of my hopes, in no particular order: 1 - A theme to the album, even a very loose one, other than a bunch of random tu...

Re: Would you visit an Alice Cooper avatar show ?

Just watched how they finished the last concert on their final ever tour with a commercial for this. True to brand to the very end. They might claim that technological advances have enabled them to do this but, let's face it, if this technology wasn't around, they'd be doing it with a cartoon, or pu...

It's taken me days to watch that, thanks to only watching it in short bursts because of how obnoxious the host is.

Re: What is 1 Original Band Song and 1 Solo Song You Would Like Added

Fields of Regret from the ACG Scarlet and Sheba from the solo years S&S is an epic, dramatic number that gets my heart pumping - with Fields I just want to turn off the lights, turn on a lava lamp and slip away into the vibe of the number. In concert you could do a groovy, but dark riff on a late 6...

Re: What is 1 Original Band Song and 1 Solo Song You Would Like Added

Black Juju - We've had Halo and (part of) My Stars so this is the last "epic" ACG songs that's not been resurrected. Inmates (We're all crazy) to close the main set as in 1979. Good call. Both great songs. Both realistic choices. Both could fit right into the set, for various reasons. Only potentia...

Re: If You Could Interview Alice...

I'd ask him three questions:

1 - How many said I wonder what happened to Alice?

2 - How many shrugged or laughed?

3 - How many cried?

I expect he'd say he doesn't give a damn.
