Having toured with Johnny Depp and Joe Perry as the Hollywood Vampires last year, Alice Cooper is back for more live shows in 2024.
Today the rock legend has announced his Too Close For Comfort UK tour, his first solo in Britain since 2022.
The upcoming string of concerts “brings fans closer than ever to Alice with giant video screens blending the live action with pre-recorded scenes to delve deeper into Alice’s world.
“Expect spectacle – snakes, guillotines, monsters and more – wreaking havoc on stage nightly. Classics like Under My Wheels, I’m Eighteen, Schools Out, Poison, Billion Dollar Babies and No More Mr Nice Guy are staples and there are surprises every night, effortlessly drawn from one the greatest catalogues in rock and roll.
“Fresh from the success of his latest album Road, a concept album about the thrills and spills of touring, Alice is back, accompanied as always by his long-running live band of Ryan Roxie (guitar), Chuck Garric (bass), Tommy Henrikson (guitar), Glen Sobel (drums), and Nita Strauss (guitar).”
Cooper said: “For Road, I wanted the band to be involved in the foundation of all the songs. I only see these guys when we’re on the road. So, I wanted them to be as tight as they are for the show but on all new material. When you have a band this good, I believe in showing it off, and this is my way of doing so.”
The 76-year-old rocker will be supported on tour by Primal Scream (except for the London dates) and The Meffs at all concerts.
Meanwhile, for both London shows he’ll be joined by Sex Pistols’ Glen Matlock. Check out the full tour dates below.
