ALICE COOPER To Open For THE ROLLING STONES In Norway

May 10, 2006

According to a posting on the SickthingsUK web site, it appears the rumors that ALICE COOPER is opening for THE ROLLING STONES are true. A member of the band mentioned it a few days ago and Alice reportedly confirmed it on his "Nights With Alice Cooper" radio show earlier in the week. The concert will take place in Bergen, Norway on June 6.

As previously reported, two live video clips of ALICE COOPER performing in Ottawa on Saturday, May 6 have been posted online at YouTube.com. Check out the clips for "Dirty Diamond" (video) and "The Awakening/Steven" (video).

In a recent interview with TheRecord.com, Alice Cooper was asked why he has yet to be inducted into Cleveland's Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame And Museum. "That's a very good question,'' he replied. "I have no idea. I think I may be overqualified. If you look at every single prerequisite, I've got it in spades. Actually, a lot of people think I'm already in it. But I'm not. I guess after THE ARCHIES and THE OHIO EXPRESS, I'll be in. It is one of those weird things I just don't get. John Lydon wouldn't have been in THE SEX PISTOLS. The way he got his job was by mimicking Alice Cooper. But it's not my call, ecause you get nominated. I'll just keep going on and on and on and outlive everybody."
