This shows that Michael Bruce is no slug on guitar, rather unfairly his skill has been unsung.

Dick Wagner did some great work before working on Nightmare.....He was lead guitarist for a band named The Frost.....Another group ahead of it's time...........Songs were great along with the vocals and harmonies for the time.....It wasn't bad growing up 50 miles from Detroit in Toledo, Oh.............lol..............

Lets put this to rest..Next week I'll be 59..I still have my 65 SG Jr that I had gotten for Christmas in 65 and too I have a 61 Les Paul Jr double cutaway that when we played back up to the MC5, Fred " Sonic" Smith had a white Les Paul Special double cutaway that we played each others guitars for the time that we spent in the dressing room before the show.......I too never sold out as I still have hair to my waste and my wife of 37 yrs just let me buy a Mesa Triple Rectafier Amp.

Who is in this band? I see Micheal Bruce has put on some weight.Is Neal Smith on drums and is Dennis Dunnaway on bass? who is the other guitarist ? Isn't Glen Buxton dead? I saw these guys in Pittsburgh at the civic arena in like 1974 on the Billion Dollar Babies tour it was fantastic.One of the best shows i ever saw if not THE best.

@GregDrayGregDray That's Steve 'Deacon' Hunter. He actually played on many of the cuts (along with Richard Wagner). Glen was becoming problematic due to substance abuse. He peaked out during Schools Out. Blue Turk being his Swan Song. Schools Out saw the transition of duty to Hunter and Wagner. Hunter played the lead on My Stars etc. Hunter and Wagner (Dynamic Duo) are the best guitarists on the PLANET. Period! Having Hunter there IS STILL the original AC band in my opinion. RIP G.B.

Alice Cooper kicks ass

rcalde6421 4 months ago

I'm glad Alice has a hired band now because these guys - who used to kick ass - are old, Mike is fat and they can't keep it together. I was a fan starting in 1970 but after 1975 it was over because AC took his show on the road and these guys got the dregs. AC is in the swing of it because he has been touring for years where as the rest are sometime Dew Drop Inn bar band members.

Bitter? no, it just ain't right.

KISS looks ugly as hell too. Have you ever looked closely at those assholes?

@alwaysopen Your just an ass for making a remark like that. We all get older but these guys can still rock....It would be amazing to see how you look now compaired to the 70's. Maybe you should look into a mirror. Needless to say it is great to see them all back on stage together again.........Being friends with Dennis and the others is something I will never forget.........It's about time that the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame got it right!!!!!!!!!

You are bitter and delusional.

@alwaysopen You tell me how many new groups can actually play or even tune there instruments with out aids like auto tune, etc. Most all the new music is total junk. None of them are song writers and all there recordings are done on computers with the likes of Pro Tools and Reason to say the least. Like I said before, we all get old. There is still a friendship that will last forever between bandmates. What they did in the late 60's and 70's was magic. No one can ever take that away!

@yellowcobra1 One last thing for @alwaysopen....You must be one hell of a lot of fun to go with to a concert with.. There too old. There too fat. They look funny. It's too loud. Your just a Wendy Winer.............Do you want some cheese to go with that wine...............AND YOU CAN EAT SHIT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The last laught is on you............

I was going to give you a worthwhile response but this 2nd one you put here is worthy of telling you to SUCK MY COCK - after your mom does - and fist your sister the way she likes it.

@alwaysopen What!!! What!!!! You say you play the skin flute..What the truth hurts..So sorry I hurt your feelings..Dude or should I say little girl with a foul mouth.........Get your shit together and your head out of your ass. These guys have always been great and pioneers in the music world.....They paved the way for so many other copy cat bands and you damm well know it. You have to make a big comitment to go on the road these days. I give them a lot of credit for still rocken out.

What would you know about taking a band out on the road?

alwaysopen 4 months ago

@alwaysopen Well lets talk..I was a personal friend of Dennis Dunnaway and the other guys from the band. Hung out with them and the likes for many years. Maybe that's why I take such offense when someone bad mouths them......I played backup to the MC5, Cradle and Dick Wagner. Hung out an entire night with Ted Nugent and the list goes on and on. The road is a hard one. Not always a ball of fun. Mechnical falures with the truck, equiptment breaking and at times coming up missing.

@yellowcobra1

Let's leave it at this...Dennis Dunaway was the best one in the band. His bass playing made the music musical. Vince was a punk rock singer, Neal Smith was average, Mike Bruce was a journeyman guitarist and GB was a studio musician. It worked when they were all together but their schtick got old. They brought in Hunter and Wagner to do the studio work just as Aerosmith did. Most of the bands I was in broke up for one reason or another though I still jam at 54.
