Alice Cooper Live: Schools Out Performance at Wolverhampton Civic Hall
On October 25, 2012, Alice Cooper graced the stage at Wolverhampton Civic Hall, delivering a memorable performance during the tour for his album 'Welcome 2 My Nightmare.' Released in 2011, this record marked a return to the theatrical rock sound that defined his earlier work while introducing a modern twist. Notably, 'Welcome 2 My Nightmare' is considered a sequel to his iconic 1975 album, 'Welcome to My Nightmare.' The live recording captures not just the artistry of Cooper who, even after decades in the industry, knows how to command an audience, but also showcases his commitment to engaging live shows, complete with his signature shock-rock theatrics. Interesting fact: Cooper's influence on the genre is monumental, blending music with performance art, which is evident in the high energy and elaborate staging of his shows like the one in Wolverhampton.
