Cowsrus Posted September 23, 2016 Report Share Posted September 23, 2016 I have to think about those because I really like Alice Cooper but I have to be somewhere in a few, and I just saw him in May at Packard Music Hall. The guy still knows how to rock! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowsrus Posted September 23, 2016 Report Share Posted September 23, 2016 Have an awesome time! If you hang around after the show you can usually meet the band. The drummer Glen Sobel is crazy talented. Alice puts on a great show and there is the giant toy box on stage too and a couple of surprises show up on stage. I wanted to make the trip but life happens. Maybe he'll come back to Warren. Rock on WSS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowsrus Posted September 23, 2016 Report Share Posted September 23, 2016 In response to #4, I'm not positive but wasn't it Salvador Dahli (SP?) that has had a big influence on Alice? I swear I remember seeing that in Super Duper Alice Cooper. If it isn't Salvador Dahli (sp) there is another that comes to mind but I'll stick with this answer for now.
