Re: Alice Testifies!!!



As much as I love Alice, this is one point where I'll never agree with him. I "pretend" to get upset when ever he talks about Plant on his show. But you can't compare the two approaches. Alice plays the card of his theatrical shows, they're all based on the same "skeleton" of hits, interlaced with songs chosen from his enormous back catalogue (several hundreds).

I love both equally (though in Alice's case it's not just for the music as with Plant, he, he) and I need both worlds. I love Alice for taking me to another world, like watching a fantasy/horror move and actually getting to play a part in it each time, it's pure unadulterated fun. And I love Plant for taking me on his musical journey and constant renewal, there's a more introspective approach here. My own life would much much poorer without all the input I got from both artists. But you really can't compare the two.

Alice always teases Plant for not wanting to play with Zepp, I'm pretty sure he only does this to stay in character, he's more open minded than that. Plant calls Alice a nostalgia act, well I disagree with him on this too, his shows are better than ever there, no resting on laurels there. I guess I'll always be "caught" between the two.

During a recent interview with the Palm Springs Boxing Examiner, legendary
rocker Alice Cooper was baffled when he was told fellow singer Robert Plant
confessed that he may be too old to perform LED ZEPPELIN songs.

"I go out on stage and say 'turn it up,'" Cooper said. "I never get tired of
playing my songs."




  'Cause I'm 18!!!!!

I wish,
