Holy Hell, im deaf now..just got back from the show..rushed the uhh..er..barriers..?..Alice Kicked some major ass..His theatrics were the shit! I especially liked where the Smokin hot Nurse with very little on was attempting to cut her chasity belt off with a grinder...Someone just told me that was Alice's Daughter?That cant be right..she was all over him..

While Alice may not be slowing down, nothing was better than seeing Meatloaf do "Paradise by the Dashboard Lights" and the girl that was singing with him came out in a cheerleading outfit and during the Phil Rizzoto dialogue, he rips it off and she prances around in a "SHEER" white teddie. That was smokin

Alice put on a killer show. I loved how security still tried to push ppl back after we all rushed the barricade. And yes that pretty nurse I believe was Calico Cooper.

I would have LOVED to have seen that show! Too bad I had to work tonight. I'll have to check to see the next time Cooper is in town... That guy is STILL rocking the same way with the same harsh edge even NOW!!! He's over 60!!!

T'was a great show. He did ALOT of tunes. Didn't say a word to the
audience until after the encore. Usually, that just seems odd, but the
show moved along really well with the prop changes, etc.

Did all the classic camp stuff (Guillotine, gallows, straightjacket, etc.)
and some pretty funny stuff and some good segues worked around
the "bits".

ONLY thing missing for me was "Elected", but can't do everything.

Can't believe how many people I saw that I know (Including RPer
Branderson from RTL).

Best show I've seen there by far.

Got a text yesterday from my wifes cousin flipping shit. She's a dental Hygienist, and Alice Cooper came in to her office to get his teeth cleaned.
Nobody told her who was in the room, they just handed her the chart then followed her in with a camera. haha she lost it. I wish I could load pics from work. She said he was super cool even though she was acting like a crazed fan-girl. He even gave her and her son tix for the show. He said he was going to a friends house in Altoona after the show to hang out.

A great tune indeed! There was another tune I knew he didnt do and I couldnt think of it when I was talking to you....It was "Hello Hooray"! LOL! That song rules too.

A very immpressive show indeed.

Feed my Frankenstein and Hey Stupid would have been nice to see but...damn. Can't believe the guy's 61 years old and still kicking ass like that.

Anyone know if that instrumental piece the band did has a name? That was freaking intense

They did three different instrumentals thru the night. Part of it was.. Only Women Bleed.. Another was the intro to... Go To Hell... And also Black Widow...

It was an amazing show. I waited 25 yrs to see him. It was worth every penny.. So much so that I decided to see him at the York fair in September..

I had to choose between Alice and the B-52's at the Railroaders Museum.

I wanted to go see Alice (I saw him in 2000 and 2004, kicked ass both times), but I had already been on the road all day delivering magazines and was having some car issues, so an additional roadtrip to Clearfield (plus waiting in gridlock, paying for parking, admission to the fair and the concert just to see the concert) just wasn't going to work out.

So I took in the B-52's. Although I was never a big fan of their music, I thought they put on a very good show. They definitely made it fun, keeping it upbeat with tunes from throughout their career. They did their big hits, "Love Shack" and during the encore, "Rock Lobster." They also did some of their other better-known tunes such as "Wild Planet," "Private Idaho," "Mesopotamia," the title from their latest CD "Funplex" and more. They still have their hairdos and their voices, and the large crowd was definitely liking it.

Come on now, Jim, this thread ain't about the B-52's.

I have to say, Cooper brings along a lot of high caliber talent to the stage with him !

The guitar players kicked butt and the drummer worked his ass off !

Any idea who they were ?

Guitarist on the left (facing the stage) was Keri Kelli. He is basically a guitarist for hire who has played previously for both Ratt and Warrant. He was impressive. The other guitarist was Damon Johnson, who used to be in 90s band called Brother Cane. I couldn't see the drummer very well, but I think it was Jim DeGrasso (Megadeth).

It was a great show, but I can't figure out why they led off the show with "Schools Out", then played it again for the encore.

If nothing's changed, the drummer would be Bethlehem, PA's own Jimmy DeGrasso (ex Ozzy, Lita Ford, Suicidal Tendencies, David Lee Roth).

Yea I read elsewhere that was who the drummer was.
