Live Review: Alice Cooper, The Roundhouse, London, 1st November

Nov 16, 2010

On paper, Alice Cooper is a ludicrous proposition. A 62-year-old man with a woman’s name in leather trousers and ghoulish make-up, he sings anthems mainly concerned with adolescent angst ('I’m Eighteen') lust ('Feed My Frankenstein') and rebellion ('No More Mr Nice Guy').

It should be claw-your-face-off cringeworthy, but like AC/DC, who somehow still get away with a 55-year-old guitarist dressed as a schoolboy, it’s anything but. In fact, over 90 minutes at a hysterical Roundhouse, Cooper puts forward a convincing case that he is greatest rock ’n’ roll showman on earth.

SLASH, ALICE COOPER, RONNIE WOOD, TONI IOMMI and JOHN PAUL JONES were among the riff-happy warriors at the Classic Rock Roll Of Honour awards. And they're all far from poised to hang up their leathers as we approach 2011.


Alice is planning a musical with NOEL FIELDING - in which he'll play the Brit comic's uncle. He was all smiles on the red carpet, proudly boasting that his wife would "wipe the floor" with the Strictly Come Dancing contestants he recently performed for.
