@PokerPlayerJames That's just how great storytellers speak when telling a story. To get everyone captivated with what they are saying (also great leaders, generals etc)
Gene Simmons can take a page out of Alice Cooper's book. "How to be a rock god without acting like a self-absorbed, holier than though, d-bag and belittling people at every opportunity."
@@janicevango5791 Exactly. Also, he's not perfect, but nobody is. My biggest thing with A.C. is, unlike many of his contemporaries, he has found a way to be adored by millions and filthy rich without becoming a complete jerk.
A friend of mine used to sell cars a couple decades back. One day, in walks Alice Cooper, looking to buy a car for his daughter. On the application under "occupation", Alice wrote "Living Legend".
Not something he'd do? This is the same man that starred as himself in Wayne's World. You are allowed, even as a Christian, to do silly things like that.
Alice Cooper seems like a genuinely good guy. A lot of the older more well known music artists seem very arrogant and rude but Alice sounds like a pretty down to earth guy.
MrHalo 11121 I can say I’ve been very fortunate to meet him at a function and he treated me, a nobody, like I was the most important person in the room...as he did with everyone. No arrogance, no going through the motions. Since that day he sealed the deal of being imho the best rockstar ever.
he has a nonprofit teen center in phoenix to teach kids music and keep them off the street here in phoenix. he even puts on a statewide band competition every year! my band won second place and i got to meet him, total sweetheart.
I've had to honor of meeting Mr. Cooper a couple times, first time I actually got to talk to him. Very intelligent man and wish we could of talked longer, he told stories of the old days. Very interesting man, totally worth it.
I had to throw away all of my stuff I had of his after I learned he was a fraud! What a waste of money but I fell for his shit I was dumb but at least we know now!
He was the godfather of making rock concert like a Broadway show. Even in his dark days when he was drinking, never read anything bad about him. He is a legend that lives up to that legend.
Sherriff, you are totally right. Alice Cooper, was a bit of a shock rocker, raise your fist and yell was my fave, but loved his early works too, and the 'carnival of gore' all a character, shocking, sometimes terrifying gothic, but whooooeeeee, he always stepped up to what folks wanted, and always top of his game every decade. And ya know what? Always seemed like a nice fun guy playing like some kinda addams family favorite uncle..... Love the dude. The worst thing I ever heard about him, was that some of his snakes got loose before concert... hehehehe.
I met him at O'Hare field in Chicago back in '75 as he was on his way back to Phoenix. Like with you, he spent about 20 minutes with me in one of the smaller bars. Couldn't have been cooler with a scoop of ice cream.
My god no what a moron you are. Manson has three good albums, and has not done anything worth a shit since Holywood. Alice has written more albums in more genres of a higher quality than Manson ever has. I'm an atheist, but I'll say it loud and proud, a lot of Alices more religious albums are some of the best heavy metal records hes ever done, and guess what he did Industrial metal better than both Manson and NIN ever did. Hell WASP another band where Blackie is a Christian did industrial better than they did as well. Alice has excelled at more music genres than anyone. Also how is he a fraud, is being a fraud making ten times the quality of any Manson record.
@@chocomanger6873but "they're" with long time bandmates, all standing pretty still, sometimes even sitting down on stage. AC is keeping up with band members half his age.
I could listen to Alice Cooper narrate any story or conversation for hours. Such a well spoken person and friendly soul. A genuine person at heart and great interview.
absolutely, i am absolutely blessed to live in the city that he night times as a disk jockey at, at the local classic rock radio station. he has a story to tell about every single artist that he puts on
When I was a in my early to mid teens, I was hitch-hiking with a friend and got a ride from a black Cadillac filled with hippie-looking people. They were al very nice to us. When we got out of the car, my friend asked me if I recognized the driver. I did not. He said that was Alice Cooper. (I had never seen a photograph of him before then). Anyway, the point is that Alice Cooper and his cohorts were nice to a couple of kids including myself. It was cool.
My Wife drove Alice Cooper from his Hotel to his gig when he played Montgomery AL. around 2009. He was really cool and joked around with her. She said he's the kind of guy you could just sit around and listen to all day long.
I've heard Alice tell the same stories over and over AND I love listening to them every time. Such a great storyteller. The people he knew, the places he's been, the things he's seen... A living legend.
There's no one I love more in the music industry than Alice. He's such an intelligent man and a great musician that was always ahead of his time. I can never imagine not liking his music. I hope I get the chance to talk to him once and tell him how much his music means to me.
Here's a little fact: When Insane Clown Posse hired Alice Cooper to record the intro for their album The Great Melinko, he showed up to the studio in full on golf attire. Plaid pants and all. He had JUST came from a course. He recorded his intro and then went straight back to the course 😂 seriously tho just picture it (go listen to the intro!) That wicked ass voice, so sinister, and behind the Mic was an Alice Cooper in his golf clothes.
I love how Alice play's up the whole emperor of rock thing with the kissing of the hand and all the stuff like that. He is NOT an arrogant guy, I've met him and can attest to that. He just loves to play the part and it's always done with humor unlike some rock star's who really take that shit seriously. I've followed the Band and then Him solo for their entire career being and from Detroit I got to see them and Him a LOT. Cool entertainment video thanks.
Alice is the one guy in the music industry I would love to meet and talk to for an extended period of time. As nervous as I may be in that situation, he's got stories for days and on top of that he's the king of hard rock.
It's funny how in every other episode of Wikipedia: Fact or Fiction, the rock stars are all like, "That never happened!" but Alice is like, "Oh yeah, that happened." Alice Cooper was indeed as wild and extreme as the legends tell.
What a down to earth guy and so accomplished at lots of different things. Not just a pro at one thing and acting like a diva about it like some rock stars, but actually a well-rounded person who it would be really nice to converse with.
I could listen to Alice talk all day. I saw him in concert last year with both his current band and his old band. It was like two concerts for the price of one and it was one of the best shows I've ever seen.
Here's my Alice Cooper story: I grew up listening to the Floyd, Whitesnake, Zep, Cooper, Sabbath, etc. Last day of 5th grade...I bring my Alice Cooper tape to school because I want to play "School's Out" in the class. I go up to the teacher and ask, "can I play my tape?" She said "sure, who is it?" I said Alice Cooper and she, no shit, looked like I told her wanted to read fucking Mein Kampf to the class. I had no CLUE what happened. It was just a cool song in my 9 year old mind. Funniest shit ever looking back. My parents had to talk to her to get her to chill the hell out. How uptight people are makes me laugh to this day.
For my senior year in high school they had all the classes vote on what their song would be. I spread the word to have School's Out voted on. It won in a landslide. Afterwards some teacher in charge rejected the song and tried to claim they had lyrics about drug use in the song. I should've fought harder than I did to get that song chosen.
I took a Jay and Silent Bob Strike back DVD to Saturday school for art credits and my teacher had no idea what it was. As soon as the first bad words start coming out she flips out. 🤣 everyone was laughing but her haha she didn't see it coming
Im 56 years old. My first concert was Alice Cooper July 3rd 1976. I've listened to his music and enjoyed this entertaining man for the greater part of my life. Big fan. Always will be. Thanks Alice. And thanks Loudwire.
I passed by Alice (Vincent) in Heathrow airport one time and I just had to say something. I was nervous that he would ignore me but I thought what the fuck and said "Hi Alice, I'm a big fan". He stopped and said thank you and complemented me on the Fender tee shirt I was wearing. I was thrilled. This guy is the real deal!
I consume way more Alice Cooper interviews in any form than I listen to his music. Just love to hear that man talk, tell stories about life, his career and the people he has met. In my opinion the classiest and nicest guy in Rock/Metal alive...
That was a surprise. Same as learning he was best friends with Glenn Campbell. They were neighbors, and Alice says Eddie Van Halen asked him if he could get him a private guitar lesson with him, as Campbell was apparently one of the top 5 guitarists in the world. Alice moves in some pretty cool circles, although truth be known, they probably all orbited around him.
been loving this guy since 1975,first saw him in 1986"The Nightmare Returns",last saw him July 4th...almost 40 times...will keep going till I die or he does!
Amazing how this man with woman's name its like a epitomized symbol of masculinity in metal and hard rock, to the point that when you read or hear Alice's name you instantly read it as a male name without thinking. A true legend for sure, this guy is a national treasure and overall a fine human being, nothing is greatest than humbleness, and being humble is Alice's trademark.
As a person whose met Alice, he is just as cool in real life as he is in this video! One of the nicest guys I’ve ever met! So great to see such an icon like him to be just the nicest guy! ☺️
We're definitely not worthy! He is so intelligent and eloquent I could listen to him for hours! Also he seems to be a really genuine guy - and a pretty good musician😀
wow, I'm a distance runner and a music lover. I had no idea Cooper was a high school athlete and a state champ at that!!!!! 4:40 mile is impressive as hell!!! My fastest mile was 6:30. Fastest 3 miles was 23:44. Awesome interview.
I would've liked to have heard his take on that massive speech he made in Wayne's World about the history of Milwaukee to see if he actually did know that or not
Alice Cooper is a legend! Guy is 70, a rock icon, still going strong, releasing killer new songs and seems to be a very cool and down to earth guy. And he probably has a ton more stories to tell. Amazing man, God bless!
This guy is cool as hell. Totally unpretentious. Casually drops that his best friend was Groucho fucking Marx and somehow it's not even surprising. Then you see a guy like Sebastian Bach, who had an impressive career but absolutely zero chance of freaking out Frank Zappa, acting like he's too cool to talk to Grahamed.
Hard to believe that guys/bands like AC and Maiden are still going full-on at their shows. At those intensities (especially Maiden, of whom I caught last August), in your mid 60s to mid 70s, is absolutely jaw-dropping.
I need a Netflix show where all these old Rock icons only tell all their old stories. I could listen to those for ages. :D
Eily Bergin
Netflix presents: The rock of metal
A history lesson of rock and metal
Only if this existed
YES
Its such an epic concept.
Have these legends tell their stories and have it set to reenactments of these stories narrated by the storyteller
It's not exclusively rock, and it's not ALL direct from the musicians, but "Tales from the Tour Bus" seems like it's what you're looking for.
Eily Bergin Hell yes!!
Note how when Alice talks of his achievements in music that he refers to ‘we’, ‘us’ and ‘ours’. Alice is a team player and respects everyone who has helped him be so successful
@PokerPlayerJames That's just how great storytellers speak when telling a story. To get everyone captivated with what they are saying (also great leaders, generals etc)
With Nita Strauss in his band and his history with collaborating with Slash, Johnny Depp, and other legends he'd be crazy not to be a team player
Tell that to his original band
Fact ALICE COOPER. **" ROCKS**" 👀
Alice Cooper was originally a band of five equal members. It would be crazy and disrespectful for him to speak of that period without saying "we".
Alice Cooper knows where I live?! Shoot, man! Why didn't he say so? Alice, come on over! I got Oreos!
Dude. Alice and Oreos, I'm coming too.
Plenty for everyone! Just...make sure to wipe your feet before you come in. You know how it is. New carpeting and whatnot.

been loving this guy since 1975,first saw him in 1986"The Nightmare Returns",last saw him July 4th...almost 40 times...will keep going till I die or he does!
Amazing how this man with woman's name its like a epitomized symbol of masculinity in metal and hard rock, to the point that when you read or hear Alice's name you instantly read it as a male name without thinking.
A true legend for sure, this guy is a national treasure and overall a fine human being, nothing is greatest than humbleness, and being humble is Alice's trademark.
He is very well spoken in comparison to many artists that say ‘like’ out of context every sentence. Well done sir.
I love hearing him speak; he’s such an intelligent, interesting guy. Glad he’s still around! ❤️
is it just me, or does anyone else think it's a tiny bit ironic that Alice is also an ordained Baptist youth minister? talk about a renaissance man.
Alice: I know where you live
Me: then stop what youre doing and get you international rockstar butt over here
That's what I said, except for the "international rockstar part," altho it's true.
Alice: I know where you live
Me: Yes! Come over!😍
I saw him in concert two days ago. He's like, what, 70 now? And still, he's incredible. And let's not forget queen Nita Strauss as his guitar player
As a person whose met Alice, he is just as cool in real life as he is in this video! One of the nicest guys I’ve ever met! So great to see such an icon like him to be just the nicest guy! ☺️
Fact: Alice Cooper is a legend🤘🏻❤️
Gonna go listen to Poison now
@LordKellthe1st no that's Motley Crue Girls Girls Girls. And Steel Panther

Forget those bands. Dokken, Ratt, Cinderella, Quiet Riot, Britny Fox, and Def Leppard does it for me.
"yeah,, manson got that one from me" ,, priceless
The hanging story alone just shows how dedicated this guy is
I’m from the uk and I love Alice Cooper remember going to his concert in 2011 12 years ago and it was the best night of my life
Do ozzy, I can speak ozzy, I think.
psycho sinical but can you UNDERSTAND him? That’s the real question.
"Wuyanoayewuzonzdage"
Pretty much every sentence

What makes this chapter better is The "fact" that we'll have a second part of it
That handshake hurt me on a physical level
We're definitely not worthy! He is so intelligent and eloquent I could listen to him for hours! Also he seems to be a really genuine guy - and a pretty good musician😀
wow, I'm a distance runner and a music lover. I had no idea Cooper was a high school athlete and a state champ at that!!!!! 4:40 mile is impressive as hell!!! My fastest mile was 6:30. Fastest 3 miles was 23:44. Awesome interview.
I would've liked to have heard his take on that massive speech he made in Wayne's World about the history of Milwaukee to see if he actually did know that or not
This man is a living legend. All HAIL Alice Cooper!!!!
Mr. Cooper also has an excellent radio show
nodrip1 nights with Alice Cooper?
Yup! I love it
nodrip1 is that a national show. I always wondered if it was
Dont know, He's in Phoenix, I'm in Tucson. It is syndicated, I think. www.nightswithalicecooper.com/
Yep!! Every once in a while I like hearing it
I come back here constantly because I love listening to Alice tell stories. Man's got such a way of talking, I could listen all day.
Alice Cooper is a legend! Guy is 70, a rock icon, still going strong, releasing killer new songs and seems to be a very cool and down to earth guy.
And he probably has a ton more stories to tell. Amazing man, God bless!
Alice actually seems like a pretty chill guy
This guy is cool as hell. Totally unpretentious. Casually drops that his best friend was Groucho fucking Marx and somehow it's not even surprising. Then you see a guy like Sebastian Bach, who had an impressive career but absolutely zero chance of freaking out Frank Zappa, acting like he's too cool to talk to Grahamed.
Should do James Hetfield, Joey Belladonna, or Matt Tuck next.
YES! Iron Maiden, Iced Earth and Morbid Angel would be nice too!
MJNation hetfield pls
seems like such an honest, genuine, cool guy
I met Alice at a 'meet and greet' in Leeds, UK, on November 11th 2017. He's such a genuinely nice bloke, no pretentions whatsoever 😊
Why was this so short, I could listen to the guy talking for days
Alice Cooper is a legend. He puts on some of the BEST rock shows.
If alice knows here i live can he come to my birthday party?
Fuck Trump your name made me laugh lmao
michael saltern yeah no
Fuck Trump you're not worthy...
My brother met him at a Target in Scottsdale, Arizona once.
Finding this way too late. I've loved Alice Cooper for decades, and this just elevated it even more.
Hard to believe that guys/bands like AC and Maiden are still going full-on at their shows. At those intensities (especially Maiden, of whom I caught last August), in your mid 60s to mid 70s, is absolutely jaw-dropping.
