Alice Cooper is 60 years old.
And he can rock!
I just saw him do a show at the State Fair tonight. It amuses me that I went to the show with my dad, who first saw Alice live when he was in high school. It was to my mom's chagrin that we both went, since she just doesn't like Alice Cooper, which is a shame. I listen to Nights With Alice Cooper now and then and I can tell that he has a great sense of humor and doesn't take himself too seriously, which makes him all right in my book. One of the intro segments claims that Alice Cooper has "been decapitated more times than any other DJ." He didn't lose his head, though he did end up hanging himself, only to reenter the stage wearing (for lack of a better term) a patriotic biker outfit. The closing number was Elected, and believe me, if Alice Cooper ran for president I'd vote for him. He is indeed a troubled man for troubled times.
My ears are still ringing and my dad yelled himself hoarse. The show was awesome.
