One of my good friends is close to him, she says he is probably one of the most down to earth and genuinely best people in rock.

Aside from John 5 who she always compares to Ned Flanders.

I had no intention of going to see Motley Crue again

This was me too but I called in and won two tickets. I was excited for Alice because I’d never seen him and like Hetfield said, he blew Motley Crue off the stage. Great show by him and the whole band. Much heavier in concert than on record too.

'70 or '71 I believe, in OKC. Opened for John Mayall, who was great. Bizarre pairing. I could've done without his act.

I saw him with the Scorpions in Atlanta in the mid 90s. It was a great show.

No. But Alice always had the best band. It got to the point people didnt want him to open for them. The last show I saw they opened for Motely Crue, what a joke.

Ha. Yep I was born in 75’. Still remember him drinking “venom” and spitting on crowd. Can’t remember what I did yesterday but I can remember Alice Cooper when I was 4. Go figure.

I first saw him in Atlanta 2012 opening for Iron Maiden. Orianthi was playing guitar with him then.

A few years later I saw him in Huntsville, AL. Nita Strauss was the guitarist then.

He puts on a good show.

1977 in Lake Charles. Rick Derringer opened for him. Great show!!

Also, Derringer was probably the loudest band I ever heard

Yes.

It was my son's first concert.

He fell in love with Nita Strauss.

I've been fortunate enough to have seen and been part of hundreds if not thousands of live shows and this was easily Top 5.

I was shocked when she left AC for Demi Lovato last year. She is smoking hot.

I agree. I got to meet Nita at a guitar clinic in Dallas & she was very friendly. She took pictures with all of us. Her boyfriend Josh Villalta is from New Orleans & is her drummer in her solo band & also her manager. She really is too good to be true.
