Sid's Sexy House of Doom 

Unoffical Sickthings Meetup

There is already talk about where to meet up before the shows on the new UK tour, including the suggestion of one big meet up, so how would you like a (dis)organised UNOFFICIAL Sickthings meetup at a private function room on the afternoon of the show? There would be food, drink, music, possibly film, kareoke, a quiz and maybe even a surprise or two (NOT Alice). It would involve a small cover charge to help pay for the room hire but if enough people are interested this would hopefully be kept to a few pounds (no prices or quotes are available yet). At the moment we are looking at ONLY Wembley (6th Nov.) OR Birmingham (9th Nov.) as these are the shows that logistically would be the easiest to do for the organisers. If this type of informal event would interest you then send an email to [link=mailto:meetup@sickthingsuk.co.uk]meetup@sickthingsuk.co.uk[/link] simply stating your prefered venue, Wembley or Birmingham. You will be under no obligation by replying. This is simply a fact finding thing to see whether there is enough interest to make it work. (NOTE: You will not get a reply as we are simply collecting numbers for the moment, however if the plan goes further you will be contacted at a later date. Emails come directly to me so you will NOT get spam or added to any mailing lists.) Please only email if you are genuinely interested in such an event and would be able to attend. Can I repeat this is just an idea at present (may never happen) and a private unofficial fan gathering. Alice Cooper, the band, management and promotors are NOT involved.

Short Interview

There's a few words from Alice appeared at Detriot News, again related to the PGA Golf Merchandise show.

Could it be True???

After a year of the "Nights With Alice Coooper" radio show being on the air but not on the net, is it possible we poor souls outside of transmission areas will be able to hear the show online? Well, I could be speaking too soon but it appears so. A report in the Chronicle Journal indicates that the show will be aired from this monday on Hot105: The Giant in Thunder Bay, which has just changed it format to Classic Rock and is to air the show every weekday evening!! What's even better is that after a bit of searching it appears the station has a new website and, low and behold, they have an online feed!! Now it could be wishful thinking but this could be the news many have been waiting for! We'll know when the station goes fully to its new format on monday.

New Interview

There's a new golf related interview appeared at the Ottawa Sun conducted at the PGA Merchandise Show.

European Tour Dates

The first couple of Mainland Europe shows have appeared for Finland and Denmark in August with many more to follow I'm sure. All dates will be added to the tour dates area (look right) as soon as I hear about them. If you find any dates in your area/country please let me know as it's impossible for me to watch every possible festival and venue site in Europe so may miss things appearing.

New Alice Cooper Book!!

Thanks to Steef for spotting this one. schwarzkopf-schwarzkopf publishing in Germany have a new Alice photo book on its way for May this year and it looks AMAZING! Photos from concerts and backstage. The samples on this page are enough to wet any fan's appitite. Unfortunatly the site text is in German but you should be able to get the idea. It does look like there will be an english distributor here but they don't have info on the Alice book yet.

New Neal Smith Interview

Check out SleezeRoxx for a great new interview with Neal about his ACG years and current projects. Well worth a read.

Alice to perform with the kids...

According to Philly.com Alice will be performing at the Sundance Film Festival later this month in relation to the film about the Rock school mentioned a further down this page. The festival runs between January 20th-30th in Park City, Utah. I can`t find a specific date for Alice`s appearance so if anyone finds anything give me a shout. As he`s scheduled to be at the Bob Hope Classic for the first part of this period, and then at the PGA Show on the 29th (likely date) tyhat really only leaves a few days between the two for this to happen. More info on the real "School Of Rock" can be found here

More UK Shows

Ticketmaster is now showing two more shows. Birmingham NEC on 9th November and Sheffield Hallam Arena on the 15th November. On sale 21st January.

Newcastle appears on Ticketmaster

Ticketmaster seems to be having some strange problems. The Newcastle show mentioned below IS up there but you won't find it using a search for either "Alice Cooper" or anything else at thier site. Instead, go to http://www2.ticketmaster.co.uk, then click "rock & pop", and look a little way down the list. You'll find all three shows we've reported listed including Newcastle on 13th November with an 'on sale' date of 21st January.
