I loved the MC5 and the Stooges, but also, the British Invasion - the Kinks and the Yardbirds - and then Led Zeppelin, of course. Alice Cooper was one of my favorite bands Picture Quote #1

Alice Cooper’s weirdnesses must really make the kids feel violent. These kids are like my sister, young people of 14 or so who’ve come to enjoy themselves. So you put things like that in front of them, and I don’t think it’s right Picture Quote #1

I had a radio show at the local college and I got kicked off the air and banished forever for playing music from the Rocky Horror Picture Show, Alice Cooper, and David Bowie because (quote-unquote) They were gay. So, things have changed quite a bit Picture Quote #1

At a show, you were engrossed in the music, but you were also engrossed in everything from the haircuts to what they were wearing Picture Quote #1

People that haven’t seen us yet are shocked because they think that Alice Cooper must be a female folksinger. They don’t expect the whole thing Picture Quote #1

I appreciate an audience that reacts to the music, even if they jump on stage and try to beat us up, I think that’s a fantastic reaction. I think that they’re really hearing something then Picture Quote #1

Well, we were all in high school and we got together, and in college - we were in art college together Picture Quote #1

We started combining the use of light and the use of theatrics and the use of as many art forms as possible, and it’s still growing - that’s the whole idea of it Picture Quote #1
