"When you have a band this good, I believe in showing it off": Alice Cooper announces Too Close For Comfort UK tour

Godfather of shock rock Alice Cooper announces autumn UK dates

Alice Cooper has announced a six date UK tour for October. 

The Too Close For Comfort tour will kick off at Glasgow's Ovo Arena on October 14, and close with two shows at London's Eventim Apollo (once the fabled Hammersmith Odeon) on October 20 and 21. According to Alice's PR team, it will "bring fans closer than ever to Alice with giant video screens blending the live action with pre-recorded scenes to delve deeper into Alice’s world."

Touring in support of his concept album Road , Cooper will be sharing his stage with Nita Strauss (guitar), Ryan Roxie (guitar), Tommy Henrikson (guitar), Chuck Garric (bass) and Glen Sobel (drums). “For Road , I wanted the band to be involved in the foundation of all the songs,” Alice stated when the album was announced. “I only see these guys when we’re on the road. So, I wanted them to be as tight as they are for the show but on all new material. When you have a band this good, I believe in showing it off, and this is my way of doing so.”

Primal Scream will perform as special guests on the four shows outside London, with former Sex Pistol Glen Matlock stepping in to replace Bobby Gillespie's band in the capital. Essex punks The Meffs will open the show each night. Full dates below.

There will be artist, promoter and venue pre-sales for fans on February 21/22 before tickets go on general sale on February 24 via AEG.

“The Godfather of Shock Rock,” American singer-songwriter and musician Alice Cooper (born Vincent Damon Furnier) has had a career in hard rock that spans over five decades.

Born in Detroit, Michigan on 4 February 1948, Furnier originally started Alice Cooper as a band (later adopting the name as his own) consisting of him on lead vocals, lead guitarist Glen Buxton, guitarist Michael Bruce, bassist Dennis Dunaway and drummer Neal Smith. The band started out playing various small gigs around Los Angeles, but with their “controversial” stage antics they did so without success; that is, until they signed with Frank Zappa’s new Straight Records label. In 1969, they released their first album, “Pretties For You,” and despite it reaching Number 1 for a week, it was considered a failure.

For the band, their success and fame came from their live shows. Deemed the “chicken incident” where rumors were made that a chicken head was bitten off on stage, the band used the attention to further their career, adopting the new “shock rock” subgenre of rock and roll. It wasn’t until their third album “Love It To Death” that they saw success in record sales, the first of what was to be a string of successful records both as a band, and as a solo artist. The tour that followed in 1971 featured their unique stage theatrics, including an electric chair execution at the end of the show; not to mention their androgynous fashion styles.

The summer of 1972 saw the release of their most iconic single, and album to date, “School’s Out.” It also saw a change of their on-stage presence with Cooper taking on a more machismo-type attitude. With the continuing achievement in their album sales and tours, the band put out yet another commercially successful album, hitting their peak with their last album as a group “Muscle of Love.” Due to constant disagreements and various other issues, the band went on a ‘temporary hiatus’ in 1974, a hiatus that they would never come back from.

It was in 1975 when the still Vincent Furnier legally changed his name to Alice Cooper, to continue making music as a solo artist; with his first album, “Welcome To My Nightmare” becoming a huge success. It was from this album the basis for the stage show television special “The Nightmare” was conceived, later gaining a Grammy nomination for best Long Form Music Video and setting rock history. However, by 1977 Cooper had hit his lowest point in his battle with alcoholism and was checked into a sanitarium to sober up.

Using his experience in the sanitarium, a newly sober Cooper released “From The Inside” and set his stage show for the album as the inside of an asylum. Unfortunately the sober Cooper didn’t last very long, with almost all of his albums from the 80s being deemed ‘blackout albums’ due to being under the influence of various drugs; consequently, the albums, which had a much different sound were not as commercially successful as his previous solo albums. It wasn’t until 1986 and the release of “Constrictor” that Cooper found his career back on top.

The 90s found Cooper touring more than spending time in the recording studio. The touring continued into the 2000s with the lengthy break in studio recordings broken with his release of “Brutal Planet.” By December 2010 it was announced the Alice Cooper (the band) would be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame, seeing a reunited band perform for the first time in a long time.

Live reviews

Alice Cooper is a living Legend and the consummate Showman.

Seeing an Alice Cooper show, and it is a show, is not so much like going to the Big Circus maybe as it is sneaking off to the Freak show while no one is watching. You know it's all fake but you still applaud and get a weird tingle down your spine!

But, and this is huge, Alice backs up his Freak show with Hit after Hit after Hit!! And at 68yrs old He still has what it takes to grab you by the throat and demand your undivided attention to his Sideshow.

Alice stalks the stage with that same slightly Campy Macabre appeal He has utilized for decades and it still works And though the theatrics on stage are maybe toned down on the gore aspect they still hold a certain "charm" as it were (yes the Guillotine is still used).

But again the songs are there to back up everything visually that is going on and Alice's Lyrics still hold up to this day. Whether it is lamenting your "lost" Teenage years while singing along to "Eighteen" or remembering that feeling of the last day of School before Summer vacation with "School's Out" (with a working of Floyd's "Another Brick in the Wall weaved in) or wishing that Alice Cooper would run for office with "Elected" while Trump and Hillary berated each other on stage and then made out while Alice looked on in humorous surprise (yes it is a show) and the brilliant "Billion Dollar Babies" which warns of the pitfalls of over indulgence of whatever vice you wish to apply. And the list of great songs goes on and on.

To that note Alice paid homage to fallen Legends with covers of:

"Pinball Wizard" for Keith Moon

"Fire" for Jimi Hendrix

"Suffragette City" for David Bowie (my favorite)

But like all performers like Alice Cooper (Iggy Pop, David Bowie, etc etc). They are only as good as their back up band they put together and Alice knows how to put together a Band no question!

In my opinion this line up of:


Glen Sobel:d, Nita Strauss:g, Chuck Garric:b, Ryan Roxie:g, Tommy Henriksen:g

might just be his most potent since the original Alice Cooper Band!?

This Band is on Fire and is highly energetic. Alice isn't stupid either and having an attractive Female guitarist in your Band will guarantee a certain "appeal" no doubt. But Nita Strauss, like Alice, can back up her looks with her playing and honestly is just "one of the boys" on stage.

Report as inappropriate

Alice Cooper puts on a horrific spectacle that will enthrall you with his gruesome theatrics and will keep you shouting out the lyrics of all his classic rock anthems.

After seeing a live performance of Alice Cooper it is not difficult to understand why he is often referred to as The Godfather of Shock Rock. His live performances have often incorporated such shocking displays of fake blood, boa constrictors, and beheadings of mannequins in a guillotine. Last time I saw Alice Cooper he beheaded a mannequin and kicked the head around stage like a soccer ball to the glee and horror of the audience. His stage presence is also engrossing wearing gothic, macabre-like clothing, black leather gloves, black eye shadow dripping down his face, and a cane that he often twirls around like a baton. Although Alice Cooper’s stage theatrics are much to be extoled, his musical capabilities are just as amazing. He puts great energy into belting out his classic hits such as “I’m Eighteen,” “School’s Out,” and “No More Mr. Nice Guy.” His backing band consists of well-versed musicians tightly working together to create a musical platform that allows Alice Cooper to adeptly perform his best work.

You never know what to expect from an Alice Cooper concert. It could be a mannequin’s head covered in fake blood getting kicked right at you into the crowd or it could be wild antics performed with boa-constrictors, but what one should expect is a horrifically, spectacular time.

This was the best concert I have ever been too. I love Alice Cooper! His costumes were amazing and I loved the snake he had around his neck for one of his songs. And I was especially happy when he sang my favorite song by him 'Poison'. I was losing it then. The music was awesome and cool. And the effects, all the smoke and fire and flamethrowers and all that stuff was AMAZING! The colorful lighting and everything was absolutely breathtaking. The guitarist and drummers really worked their hardest to give a good show. The show in its entirety was insanely amazing and absolutely over the top cool and fun. I was practicly going insane they were all so good! The song selection that they chose to play was really good and absolutely out of this world. Mötley Crüe was also absolutely amazing and I loved the little background speach about how they first met and all that. It was a really interesting story. The opening band was also really good. And the style of music they play really suits it for them, they make it totally amazing for people who really like it, and want to go to concerts for those types of artists and music genres. With Alice Cooper, ya always gotta expect the unexpected cause ya never know what he'll walk out onto the stage in.

Alice's newest tour, entitled Ol' Black Eyes Is Back, is out of this world! I've been to so many Alice shows over the years, so I had gotten used to his show in the last five years. I loved that show, the set, and all of the songs, but his new tour really deviates from the past few years. Alice usually carries over a lot of concepts from his previous tours, so the whole show was a huge surprise! He threw in so many old songs--songs he hasn't done in decades! The set was completely new, from the huge baby wandering on stage to the chandeliers above the set. The stairs leading to the platforms/tower in the back were astounding and the perfect background to the set. Alice sounds just as good as ever, and his attitude (including facial expressions!) while he sings shows that he's still on the top of his game at age 71!

But one of Alice's best assets hasn't changed: his band! They have always been stellar, and his band of the last five years has really brought their A game to every show. Ryan Roxie, Chuck Garric, Glen Sobel, Tommy Henriksen, and Nita Strauss all deserve their own honorable mentions. They are all unique in their own way and bring something different to every show!

The show was great, and even if we have seen 8 shows through the years, the band still managed to insert à few surprises. "We still have a long way to go" I don t recall ever hearing live nor "Guilty",

The surprise hommage to gone friends Moon , Bowie and Lemmy was classy and sobre.

The Elected finale was premium Cooper: funny first level but at a second level a cynic caricature of the sad american electoral system and puppets that play the Game. Same kind of satyrical humor as in " I love America". Indeed I think they should prep the crowd with that song just before Elected.

I definitely would vote for him.

There is one flaw in Alicés shows: he NEVER talks to the audience. Who was Moon and Bowie for him for example. Why not give us a show with a little insight into the history of the songs? Granted it is another type of show but the man is living history. Let s have a little of it.

The band was soooo good. Pinball wizard was astonishing. And , suggestion, I sould start a tune with a classic waltz from ... Strauss of course.

Alice just gets better with age ~Sheryl is my favorite ballerina and her dancing is endearing , Ryan Roxie is incendiary as always and his only women bleed guitar always makes my ❤️Smile hurricane Nita Strauss steals the show with her youthful beauty and insane bouncy guitar , tommy is growing into his own and I predict will become a household name soon and beasto blanco well what can I say his voice is so sexy and his six pack is easy in the eyes keeping the beat is glen sobel if I could take lessons from him in drums and learn to play funky music and brick house and feed my Frankenstein and under my wheels and learn guitar from Ryan rixie I will die a very happy women #lifegoals this is my 7th Alice cooper concert and he as always is a class act sexy still and sober he is huge power of example to this drug riddled fentynol generation I just pray alice Cooper will make a side trip to cape cod melody tent ASAP thank you Alice your so good I named my sphynx black kitten after you cuz he is dark cool and wrinkly just like you

Exceptional show from beginning to end. The set list blew my mind since I have been listening to the band since 1969, and he played most of my Loved and favorite songs. He sounds and looks very very good for 73 years of age. The band included original band member Dennis Dunaway on bass, and the other members who have been playing with him for quite some time as well. Nita Strauss is amazing!!!! The entire stage set up, and the entire stage performance was mind blowing to me. He did something very SPECIAL at the end of the set list and before the Encore. As they left the stage, there were 2 screens located 1 on each side of the stage, they came on and his voice brought our attention to the 17 Students shot here in Florida last month and he paid a beautiful homage and his respects to the Families and friends of the students. He Encored with an amazing Schools Out. As I said at the beginning, Exceptional Show.

A Paranormal evening with Alice Cooper was a great show at the Ordway in Saint Paul, MN. Alice delivered an exciting show as is par for Alice, I have seen Alice Cooper several times and I never get bored with his act. He truly is the Godfather of Shock Rock, Alice Cooper and all of the members of the band are true entertainers, Alice played some material that I have not heard before and they were songs that have very relevant lyrics speaking to the way people are behaving and feeling (particularly here in the USA). If you have never had the extreme pleasure of seeing an Alice Cooper event you are missing out on one of the true great performers that are left. The only song Alice didn't play that I feel should be a staple in the act is Welcome to my Nightmare but I understand that when you have a catalog of hits like Alice has; it has to be hard to pick which songs to play and which to cut out of the show.

Great show put on by the ever young Alice Cooper, i have been a fan of the group since the early 70's but until now have not seen them live so was really excited. Kicked off with the very heavy Brutal planet and then straight into Under My Wheels, absolutely brilliant opening 10 minutes, They then play a lot of the more recent stuff which was really good but the show and the crowd kicked up several gears when the original band (minus of course Glen Buxton R.I.P) came on. This was what i and the majority of the audience came to see, they were amazing, just so good, Alice's voice has not faded one bit and of course he is the ultimate showman. A brilliant ending 'School's Out' incorporating Another Brick in The Wall with all the musician playing and being acknowledged. Excellent concert, would love to see just the old band playing live for a whole concert, now THAT really would be something.

Alice just gets better with age ~Sheryl is my favorite ballerina and her dancing is endearing , Ryan Roxie is incendiary as always and his only women bleed guitar always makes my ❤️Smile hurricane Nita Strauss steals the show with her youthful beauty and insane bouncy guitar , tommy is growing into his own and I predict will become a household name soon and beasto blanco well what can I say his voice is so sexy and his six pack is easy in the eyes keeping the beat is glen sobel if I could take lessons from him in drums and learn to play funky music and brick house and feed my Frankenstein and under my wheels and learn guitar from Ryan rixie I will die a very happy women #lifegoals this is my 7th Alice cooper concert and he as always is a class act sexy still and sober he is huge power of example to this drug riddled fentynol generation

Alice Cooper announces UK tour dates for October

Icon, pioneer, and Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame inductee – Alice Cooper has achieved so much in his lengthy career.  But most importantly, Alice Cooper remains one the greatest rock shows on the planet.

Returning to the UK for the first time since 2022, in October , Alice and his award-winning band are heading to arenas in Glasgow ( 14th), Birmingham (16th), Manchester (17th), Leeds (18th) and, for the first time in many years, more up close and in your face shows at London’s Eventim Apollo (20th + 21st).

The Too Close For Comfort tour brings fans closer than ever to Alice with giant video screens blending the live action with pre-recorded scenes to delve deeper into Alice’s world.

Expect spectacle – snakes, guillotines, monsters and more – wreaking havoc on stage nightly. Classics like “Under My Wheels,” “I’m Eighteen,” “Schools Out,” “Poison,” “Billion Dollar Babies,” and “No More Mr Nice Guy” are staples and there are surprises every night, effortlessly drawn from one the greatest catalogues in rock and roll.

Fresh from the success of his latest album ‘ Road ,’ a concept album about the thrills and spills of touring, Alice is back, accompanied as always by his long-running live band of Ryan Roxie (guitar), Chuck Garric (bass), Tommy Henrikson (guitar), Glen Sobel (drums), and Nita Strauss (guitar).

Primal Scream , one of Britain’s best-loved rock bands, will join Alice for the tour, in all cities except London.  The Glasgow band have been on an odyssey, making jangly guitar pop to brash rock n roll, incorporating acid house and psychedelia into unique records and live experiences.  Frontman Bobby Gillespie cites Alice’s shocking appearances on 1970s Top of the Pops as a formative influence.

In London, legendary Sex Pistols guitarist and songwriter Glen Matlock will be Alice’s special guest. And on all dates, up and coming acclaimed punks The Meffs will support.

ALICE COOPER Adds 12 U.S. Shows To Summer 2024 Tour

Icon, pioneer, and Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame inductee Alice Cooper has added 12 new shows to his summer 2024 tour.

Pre-sale tickets and VIP packages will be available on Tuesday, April 16 at 10 a.m. local time with code SICKTHINGS. Tickets to the general public go on sale on Friday, April 19.

Newly announced shows:

Jul. 30 - Niagara Falls, ON @ OLG Stage at Fallsview Casino Jul. 31 - Albany, NY @ Palace Theatre Aug. 02 - Kalamazoo, MI @ Wings Event Center Aug. 04 - Peoria, IL @ Peoria Civic Center Aug. 06 - Huber Heights, OH @ Rose Music Center at The Heights Aug. 07 - Rockford, IL @ BMO Harris Bank Center Aug. 10 - Tulsa, OK @ River Spirit Casino and Resort Aug. 11 - Park City, KS @ Hartman Arena Aug. 13 - Denver, CO @ The Mission Ballroom Aug. 15 - Valley Center, CA @ Harrah's Rincon Pavilion Aug. 16 - Costa Mesa, CA @ Pacific Amphitheater* Aug. 17 - Tucson, AZ @ Casino De Sol - AVA Amphitheater

The "Too Close For Comfort" tour brings fans closer than ever to Alice with giant video screens blending the live action with pre-recorded scenes to delve deeper into Alice 's world.

Expect spectacle — snakes, guillotines, monsters and more — wreaking havoc on stage nightly. Classics like "Under My Wheels" , "I'm Eighteen" , "School's Out" , "Poison" , "Billion Dollar Babies" and "No More Mr. Nice Guy" are staples and there are surprises every night, effortlessly drawn from one the greatest catalogues in rock and roll.

Fresh from the success of his latest album "Road" , a concept album about the thrills and spills of touring, Alice is back, accompanied as always by his long-running live band of Ryan Roxie (guitar), Chuck Garric (bass), Tommy Henriksen (guitar), Glen Sobel (drums) and Nita Strauss (guitar).

"For 'Road' , I wanted the band to be involved in the foundation of all the songs," says Alice . "I only see these guys when we're on the road. So, I wanted them to be as tight as they are for the show but on all new material. When you have a band this good, I believe in showing it off, and this is my way of doing so."

Cooper pioneered a grandly theatrical brand of hard rock that was designed to shock. Drawing equally from horror movies, vaudeville, and garage rock, the group created a stage show that featured electric chairs, guillotines, fake blood and boa constrictors. He continues to tour regularly, performing shows worldwide with the dark and horror-themed theatrics that he’s best known for.

With a schedule that has included six months year in and year out on the road, Cooper brings his own brand of rock psycho-drama to fans both old and new, enjoying it as much as the audience does. Known as the architect of shock-rock, Cooper (in both the original ALICE COOPER band and as a solo artist) has rattled the cages and undermined the authority of generations of guardians of the status quo, continuing to surprise fans and exude danger at every turn, like a great horror movie, even in an era where CNN can present real-life shocking images.

With his influence on rock and roll and popular culture long since acknowledged, there is little that Cooper hasn't achieved in his remarkable career, including platinum albums, sold-out tours and any number of honors and career achievement awards.
