“When you have a band this good, I believe in showing it off”: Alice Cooper announces Too Close For Comfort UK tour

Godfather of shock rock Alice Cooper announces autumn UK dates.

Alice Cooper has announced a six date UK tour for October.

The Too Close For Comfort tour will kick off at Glasgow’s Ovo Arena on October 14, and close with two shows at London’s Eventim Apollo (once the fabled Hammersmith Odeon) on October 20 and 21. According to Alice’s PR team, it will “bring 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.”

Touring in support of his concept album Road, Cooper will be sharing his stage with Nita Strauss (guitar), Ryan Roxie (guitar), Tommy Henrikson (guitar), Chuck Garric (bass) and Glen Sobel (drums).

“For Road, I wanted the band to be involved in the foundation of all the songs,” Alice stated when the album was announced. “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.”

Ahead of the UK shows, Cooper is joining old pal Rob Zombie to continue their successful Freaks On Parade tour in the US. Dates below.
