Who Has Seen Alice Cooper Live?

Who among you have had the privilege of seeing Alice Cooper live? I’ve heard that he has put on a kickass show for many years, although unfortunately I haven’t been able to witness one yet.
Those who have seen him live, what was it like? Was it one of the best concerts you have ever been to?

Saw him at a casino show (hard rock biloxi?) maybe 5-6 years ago.
Good, fun show. Not life changing by any stretch of the imagination, but exactly what you’d expect for a dude in his late sixties (at the time). Had all the theatrical stuff you’d expect.
I was never some huge AC fan but I’m a rock fan and it was fun.

I saw him at The Warehouse in 1981 and again in the 90's at the UNO arena. Good show both times

I've seen him 3 times. He & his band absolutely blew Motley Crue off the stage on their "final" tour around 2015. I just saw him with Misfits for Halloween here in Dallas & he & the band did not disappoint. Nita Strauss left the band & now Kane Roberts is back in the band to take her place. He has 3 guitarists. He has all the props-Frankenstein, his wife as the evil nurse, The Guillotine, etc. If you get a chance, go to this show. He still sounds great in his 70's & his band is great.

Late seventies/early eighties saw him several times in Baton Rouge and New Orleans. Entertaning shows each time. I would see him again if given the opportunity.

Saw him ten years ago and it was the most entertaining concert I've ever been too.
Every song had a visual aspect that you can tell he finetuned over a career of live performing.
He had outstanding supporting musicians (Orianthi when I saw him), so the music will be great too.
lol. Here he is from 2019. I need to see him again!

Saw him/them in '73 at the International Amphitheater in Chicago.
Saw him again at ChicagoFest in 1980.

Also saw him about 10 years ago, at the casino in Marksville. Greatly exceeded my expectations. Great concert, great show. I'd go again.

I won 4 tickets front row center to see him in '77. Second show I ever went to. He had just acquired Nigel Olson and Davey Johnstone from Elton John (when Elton John actually rocked). I remember it well. Theatrics were second to none.
I also ran into him once in his mother's boutique in Scottsdale. He couldn't have been any nicer and cordial. Always been a class act.

Saw him perform his “Welcome to My Nightmare” show at City Park in New Orleans around 1975. I remember him kicking a female mannequin around the stage while singing “Only Women Bleed”.
Very theatrical performance.

Daymn... How would you like to See Alice come out to THIS. Awesome!
The musicianship of the band and Alice's stage presence are off the charts. I had no intention of going to see Motley Crue again until I saw that Alice Cooper was opening, who I had never seen. His show was excellent, just like the video you posted. Matter of fact, Nita Strauss from your link was his guitarist at the show I went to. Apparently the Rams gave her a Super Bowl ring last year, as she is their in-house guitarist during football season.

Won free tickets to see him a few years ago at Municipal in Shreveport. Went with low expectations but really enjoyed the show. I’d go see him again.

I have seen him live.
It wasn't in concert, but I sat a few tables from him in a restaurant one night. It was at Spago in Los Angeles. There were a number of celebrities in there that night including Casey Casem and his blond wife who was about a foot taller than he was, especially after the hairdo was taken into consideration. Also Richie Vallens who was popular at the time.
Alice, and his pretty, young date, were nice normal people that night.

Saw him in the Spring of 72, the Killer tour. It was a show, Did the hanging stunt. We were standing on chairs and the whole row fell backwards reaching for posters they tossed. I was with Michelle, made it even better.

I was there too and couldn’t believe how good Coop sounded. If only he played Dangerous Tonight. That’s an all time cheesy guilty pleasure.

His next headlining tour hits Shreveport and Biloxi in May.. ticket prices shouldn't be too crazy, worth going if he's on your bucket list

You can likely find him on the golf courses in Scottsdale and Phoenix. He is a big golfer and you see him in tons of local commercials around here.
He used to have a restaurant near the Dbacks stadium Cooperstown.
AZ loves Alice Cooper

I won tickets via radio promo to see Alice Cooper w/ Motorhead opening at the old Charlotte Coliseum back in 1988.
I was 12... Weird kid. All I did was jerk off and listen to KISS, then on to Alice Cooper. My parents must have thought I was gonna go full Jame Gumb.
But the concert was pretty damn good. Lemmy and Co came out on stage on their motorcycles. I remember my poor mom (no pics) chaperoning me and my buddy (who I was taking since he took me the previous year to see RATT, w/ Cheap Trick opening). She had hear ear plugs in the whole time except for Only Women Bleed (again no pics).
I was budding metalhead. Started playing guitar. Made my instructor teach me all types of 80s metal. Poor dude. All he wanted was to teach me blues and stuff like Allmans, Clapton.
He finally wore off on me.
