    I'm going! Saw him live a few years ago and couldn't believe how brilliant he was so I'm really looking forward to this!

    What are you serious?

    Alice Cooper started out in the late 60's and has released close to 30 albums.He is a true rock legend who paved the way and influenced many great bands such as Kiss, White/Rob Zombie, Marilyn Manson and Eurovision heroes Lordi. He received a star on Hollywood Walk of Fame a couple of years ago.

    I have seen Alice a couple of times in the last few years and he is amazing live and puts on a great show.

    I am really looking forward to seeing him in a small venue.

    Yeah I reckon it could be worth a look. I've never seen him before - does he tend to play a greatest hits type set, or does he mix in new stuff as well? (I say this never having heard any 'new stuff')

    ^^ You usually get a solid two hour to two & a half hour set with new(ish) material dominating the early stages with a few 'early' hits thrown in leaving the end for the big hits and more known newbies.... that was the norm on the European tour last year.....
    Vicar Street is one of the smallest venues he's ever played so who know's he may go all out....

    You will a good idea from this site.

    I saw Alice in Wembley last November and I think he played 3 songs from Dirty Diamonds, the rest was all older stuff.
