UK Tickets: A Statement

Since yesterday morning there has been an incredible amount of ill feeling towards the organisers of the forthcoming UK (and by extention Australian, European and North American) tour from the online Alice Cooper community on the mailing list, the message board and also through private emails we have recieved here. In response to this the owner and contributers to this site have felt the need to issue the following statement on our position in this matter. We do not expect that the promotors will take any notice of it, however we believe something has to be said. Read it here

UK Tour Details

Tour Dates: 05th Nov - Brighton Centre 06th Nov - London Wembley 07th Nov - Cardiff CIA 09th Nov - Birmingham NEC 10th Nov - Manchester MENA 12th Nov - Glasgow Clyde Auditorium 13th Nov - Newcastle Arena 15th Nov - Sheffield Arena 16th Nov - Nottingham Arena 17th Nov - Bournemouth BIC 19th Nov - Plymouth Pavilion Check out AC.com for ticket details. There seem to be three ticket packages available ranging from expensive to ridiculously expensive. Prices are also in US$ which seems a little silly for a UK tour.

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.

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.

Prince Of Darkness on TV

Prince of Darkness is on Movie Central's 'Shadow Lane' tommorow at 10:30 am and 10:15 pm. 'Shadow Lane' is one of the "extra" paid package channels, here but it's not "Pay per view". The times are Pacific. It's also on a few times more in January and February according to the Movie Central site. (thanks Zoogirl)

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.

'Rock School'

A couple of reports have appeared about Alice's appearance at the Sundance Film Festival at the 'Rock School' Launch party. He performed 'School's Out' of course. The one with the most AC content is Newsday.com

More Nemi

Alice makes yet another appearance in Scandinavian comic book Nemi this month (xmas issue). Eagle-eyed watchers will know that this is about the third time Alice has made an appearance in the book as the creator is a big fan.

Short Alice Mention

AZCentral has a short mention and quote from Alice about the Diamondbacks baseball team.
