ALICE COOPER Talks To Boston's WZLX 100.7 FM; Audio Available
September 7, 2007A brand new audio interview with Alice Cooper conducted by Chuck Nowlin of Boston's WZLX 100.7 FM has been posted at this location.
Regarding how he came to be added to the current HEAVEN AND HELL U.S. tour, Cooper recently told the New Haven Advocate, "I had a month off. ROB ZOMBIE dropped out of the tour because he had 'Halloween' coming out, and left this giant spot there. I knew Dio and the guys from BLACK SABBATH forever. The only thing I said to them was 'You know we never change our show, right?'"
Cooper's current tour finds him swinging from a hangman's noose while wearing a straitjacket. The transgressive freak is then redeemed and reincarnated for an encore. "Coming from where I grew up" — Phoenix, Ariz., son of an elder in the Bickertonite Christian faith — "the stories all had good and evil, black and white, damnation and redemption. Every single thing was about sex, death and money." In the current live show, "when they pull the gallows out, it gets the most amazing response," Cooper declared. "It's sitting there, covered with a sheet, everyone knows it's coming, but they just go crazy."
