Top 10 Bands Live

[KiwiCoromandel]

oh yeah kiwi, I saw that alice cooper concert too, that's the one with the guillotine right? where he chopped his head off, lol  I thought it was Billion Dollar Babies, maybe I was wrong.

Australian Nightmare tour 1977

* Dick Wagner- guitar

* Bob Kulick - Guitar

* Prakash John - bass

* Penti 'Whitey' Glan - drums

* Mark Stein - Keyboards

The setlist was similar to the 'Welcome To My Nightmare' tour but there were differences. For one, they included 'I Never Cry'.

In 1975, Alice had been scheduled to tour Australia but canceled When he returned the following year he was arrested due to a dispute with the previous promoter.

Time - 7th April 1975

"I am not going to allow a degenerate who could powerfully influence the young and weak-minded to enter this country and stage this sort of exhibition here." declared Australian Labor and Immigration Minister Clyde Cameron after banning a tour Down Under by eye-shadowed Vaude-Rocker Alice Cooper. "Isn't it crazy?" said Alice. "People still think I kill chickens on-stage." Alice's defense of his props is somewhat cobwebbed too: "I have never done anything nearly as bloody as King Lear or Macbeth, and that's considered required reading in every high school in America."
