ALICE COOPER - Under my wheels TX April 30 1973! live

[SonOfCheepThrill]

awesome gig.... 'Dick Nixon' got snatched away... lol

[packeropie]

at 4:50 you see someone stick their hand out and pluck a piece of alice's hair right off his head. haha.

[1stSaintsFan]

I saw the original ACG once during Nightmare tour...Buxton was to fucked up to play on stage, his damn guitar was unplugged,,,,Bob Ezrin guitarist, Hunter and Wagner were hidden offstage playing Glenn's parts and their parts from the album...Never really saw the whole band play...Show was good...Can you believe Alice is still at it...This is 73 and he sound, looks like HELL...

[realityeaters]

@1stSaintsFan greetings the alice cooper band dis-banded before the nightmare album and never was on the nightmare tour only the man alice cooper...

[kafabe58]

@1stSaintsFan

Pretty sure Buxton was gone for the nightmare tour...right story but wrong tour...

[1stSaintsFan]

@kafabe58 ....You are correct it was the Billion Dollar Babies Tour and someone pointed out it wasn't Hunter and Wagner but a guitarist that Alice used for "Muscle of Love"...I did see the Nighmare Tour and I didn't like parts of it...It wasn't gritty enough and too stagey....I was a teenager who was a big metal fan at the time...

[fossil6591]

My best buddy and me were at the coliseum that night. I would never be able to explain or describe how awesome this show was. We sat up in the cheap seats right of rear of stage with some interesting fans with some just as interesting smokes. We were scared but made our way down onto the floor and it got even weirder. This show was being filmed by the BBC. Alice unfurled a giant American Flag at the end and shot of fireworks. I puked scrambled eggs the next morning on the bus to school.

[jindigger]

I was born in 1987, I wish I could have been apart of this. Concers now are just a bunch of music and that's it.

[jindigger]

I mean concerts. Alice is my hero

[Hampo0s]

hahha that girl flippin him off :D

[jindigger]

@Hampo0s I think that was a dude, he was hittin on his girl friend.

[CormanBARBARIAN]

[kingfrat78]

Awesome!!!!



[DanBlabbers]

Looks like a rock 'n roll Tiny Tim hahah

[gzrmember1976]

my brother seen alice cooper new years eve 72-73 buffalo ny told me it was wild

[spanishcastles56]

Happy Birthday Vincent Furnier! Thank God I saw you in the day, when you put on an outstanding show. I stopped going to your shows when you dropped your mates for Cheryl, the dancing tooth. Please put the original band back together and do one last concert tour with them for all of us old-timers!!! Just one more time, let us see the hard kick-ass rock and roll group that built your empire (rest in peace, Glen Buxton) and let these kids today see what the REAL Alice Cooper band was all about!

[Brendielee]

Happy Birthday Vincent!!

[timbo4string]

the alice cooper band tore it up in the early 70`s..this was a great show from a great tour....you gotta dig Alice workin` his mojo on the "boat-load-of-shrimp" in the first row. Alice is "Big & Fast" baby!!!!!

[katethegreat91]

I want a time machine instead of a car for my birthday. I would go straight to the Killer Tour

[Ramona6]

Kickin' Nixon's slimey ass!!!!!! WoooooHooooo!!!!!!!

[xBruusx]

He got into the rockn roll hall of fame today!

[pfordsq]

Classic audience - baiting...This stuff was censored from the Rhino B$B release.

If and when Alice goes to the Hall of Fame Induction , it's going to cost thousands , if not tens of thousands , of dollars to get the others their tickets , but , he'll surely spring for it. He's long since strengthened ties with the surviving Alice Cooper Group. They've played two shows together , and are doing another this onth , in Phoenix.

[Alexandernero666]

I love how they pummel Nixon at the end ...classic! Alice was one of the first punk rockers!

[sirlovemehard]

Awesome Shit !!! My band Dripping Snatch covers this !!! X)

[jedderosia]

This is the most freakin' excellent clip I have seen.

[martind586]

forgot the words on this song alice!

[michaelaliming1]

There ya have it folks...This is the guy that scared the Jesus out of Parents all around the world and kicked off what we now know as shock rock. Nice going Alice..Love it to death!

[SnOrKaLBoY1996]

i have this on dvd :P awesome!

[buchseboelken]

und heute macht er werbung für bullshit

[tennispro561]

When Alice goes in the Hall next year--will he have Michael, Neal and Dennis with

him? Or try to grab all the credit like he has always done....He was a shit to disband

the original and best group he ever had....and leave those guys out on their own....

[MrBuzwuzcuz]

They had already been playing this song for a year and a half...I know how bored you get with some tunes being a musician...I use to swallow my own spit and shit on the stage myself!!!

jk

Love the Coop

[malondo7]

this is an amazing clip..and a little sad..You can see the booze really taking over and the boredom,,I gave up on Alice in summer of '73 but the original band were stunning lookers and excellent musicians..and best of all,underneath it all..just regular good fellas!

[150sevenmag]

The original Alice Cooper band is by far the best version. None of the bands he's assembled can touch this!

[mcp666]

@150sevenmag Totally agree, as much as I love Nightmare and some other later material, everything from Killer to the bands breakup was legend! ;-)

[morbidgod]

yeah and i don't get it, why the hell was that queer flipping off Alice? wtf did he do to him?

[mcp666]

@morbidgod Who cares, he's a dick and Alice didn't give him a chance to make his mark. A shame the camera caught it. :-P

[morbidgod]

@mcp666 Well yeah your right, it doesn't matter. that was funny though how Alice was just pissing him off when he just started laughing about it, calling him a fag.

[mcp666]

@morbidgod Maybe he didn't like the getting the powder on his faggot hair do or he didn't like Alice hitting on his girl. lol

[morbidgod]

@mcp666 hahahahah.

[teden20]

Alice (Vincent Fornier) Cooper is not in the American Rock and Roll Hall of Fame? Well, this is going piss Iggy off. Let me tell you, the last thing you want is Iggy Pop angry, for any reason. Not in the American Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Disgrace.

[OdysseyLoungeA2]

Find it hard to believe that Alice GAVE these Texans this show and, 40 years later, they still don't get it--DETROIT ROCK 'N ROLL RULES!!!

[slashtophat1993]

WTF? At 3:14 there's a person in the audience flippin' the bird to Alice.... That sux

[OdysseyLoungeA2]

@slashtophat1993 --That's Texas

[rwlt]

Saw them in '74. Dang sure got my $7.50 worth!

[DAVWAVE]

The fact is that the overall music scene was so good in the 60's and 70's you could just switch on a little transister radio with a 9 volt battery and a tiny speaker (mono) and you would have great music. New stuff was coming out all the time. No need for ipods or comuters.  Yes, there was FM and great sterieo speakers, ect. but you could easily get by with a little radio, that used the free airwaves.

[jenniferjuniper97]

My sentiments exactly (the ending) then, and now!

[ILoveAliceCooper97]

I luv his sarcasm! ( :

[ILoveAliceCooper97]

Didja see the look on hid face at 2:57? It's soo funny, he's like, "let's get it on!"

[juanmarkus777]

Super Alice, great show, great band (the best band he had).

[adric137]

He is uniquely cool even more than most rockers

[sonicavenga]

You're 20??? ;D)

[F1carsguitar]

RocknRoll Hall of Fame should only be for people who Rock!!! Not Abba!!!

Keep Rockin Alice Cooper!!

[spyroxxm]

@F1carsguitar No shit!!  And Alice doesn't just rock, .. he's funny and entertaining too.

[nethaeleth]

lol. and i'm from cleveland. my whole life. right. here. same. 30-mile. stretch. along. lake. erie. and i have to say... wth. abba . great band. but yes, and no a.c.?? ac in my trailer/house/apartment window during the summer, yes, but... no a.c. in the r n r hall of fame? ok. something is srsly wrong here. :D

[121126]

one stop on this tour had alice- jo jo gunn - captian beyond texas 73

[sezwhom]

@121126 Now that's one heck of a lineup with Alice, Jo-Jo Gunne and Captain Beyond! Deserves a WOW! Good times. Very few know about Gunne or Beyond.

[southperth22]

how awesome to have all those chicks up front i would bring em all back to the hotel and fuck the lot....

[jenniferjuniper97]

@southperth22 Who's to say he didn't? ;)

[Schrittwieser]

Saw Alice 1972 Long Island Arena. It no longer excists.

[krevice]

stunning. stones, kiss, guns,manson all shock and surprise for a brief time but it wears off quick. and i'm a huge kiss fan. but something about early alice still has a edge to it. over 30 years later and it still is pushing the limits

[terriner]

Was in the audience for the Houston show - April 29, 1973, not April 30. great show, the band was & show was amazing. Alice not in the Hall of Fame, but Abba is set to be inducted? What a joke the Hall of Fame is.

[OdysseyLoungeA2]

@terriner --And you're a Texan?

[morbidgod]

@terriner lol, yeah it is a joke. they actually enlisted alot of idiots in the hall of fame. in the rock & roll history museum they actually had snoop dogg inducted into it... like wtf!?!?!?!? i can only imagine who else they inducted in it. it's sad that they only inducted very little worthy people in it. instead of the hall of fame they might as well call it the hall of posers!

[djp1369]

@terriner Not anymore 2011 he's FINALLY in!

[terriner]

@djp1369 I can go to Cleveland now.

[terriner]

@djp1369 I can go to Cleveland now.

[Spartacus217]

Hurry up with that time machine! I need to go back and see this live!

[ReDRuM868]

@Spartacus217 I'd take a one way ticket back to 1973 if i could

[ronniedeenwho]

4:53 Someone trying to rip a hair out? :P

[strangeparty]

Hmmm. Alice makes a total asshole of himself. The "faggot" comment was most unfortunate. Had I seen anything like that when I was an Alice Cooper fanatic, in the early seventies, I wouldn't have listened to him anymore. He was eclipsed by much more talented acts anyway. A few years after this, he was already a has-been, playing golf and drinking martinis and showing him for the stupid, bourgeois fool that he is.

[spyroxxm]

@strangeparty Actually, Alice got called a "faggot" himself quite a bit in the early days, .. even got beaten up on a few occasions, and he'd always laugh and joke about it too ! It was just Alice's sense of humor back then. He was always very irreverent back in those days, and THIS was long before "political correctness" took hold in modern culture, .. hell, THIS was the SAME era when people were also laughing at Archie Bunker on television!!

[spyroxxm]

@strangeparty Oh, and I dont know who these acts are whom you think "eclipsed" him ( Fleetwood Mac or somebody ? ), but I haven't found there've been very many other acts in modern music as creative, original, interesting and entertaining as Alice Cooper. And I certainly continued following him long after THIS era and have liked all his albums up until Constrictor ( his first dud in my book ).

[TheNightmare75]

At around 4:12 some guy is flipping Alice off after that sarcastic remark he made. Yeah. Around that time, he was kinda an asshole and he didn't really care about anything but girls. His music was great at that time, though. Once he met Sheryl, he became more cool, and less of a man-whore.

[RosesOnWhiteLace16]

In earlier interviews from the 70's, He didn't seem like an asshole..

[TheNightmare75]

Oops. Didn't notice that his makeup was on. Yeah. Onstage Alice is a funny asshole. Offstage Alice is cool, though. You're right.

[RosesOnWhiteLace16]

Nd remember that Alice always says that he makes the onstage Alice the biggest arrogant bastard llol

[spyroxxm]

@TheNightmare75 Exactly! Funny thing is, alot of punk rock groupes ( like namely Fear and the Sex Pistols )were kind of doing THAT later on ( verbaly confronting the audience, insulting them, even spiting on them ), but much more agresively and viciously. Alice always did it in a good natured and funny kind of way though.

[420joesparx]

cant believe hr aint in the rock n roll hof

[RosesOnWhiteLace16]

Oh man....Wish I could have been alive for this XD

[JGTMTE]

I love it when that girls boyfriend starts yelling at him and Alice just goes "I'm not interested in boys anyway" hahahaha!

[hdfatboy2k]

LOL @ 3:30, "I can have you later."

[glimmer2158]

Is that powder in the big balloons when they pop?

[JGTMTE]

At the show I was at not long ago, it was like glitter and confetti...

[frederickus]

Just the same, this performance is DEAD NUTS LIVE!!! It is real!!!

[Jano130390]

Haha 4:53 *joink* stealing hair

[litdvideos]

I was at this show! My first concert ever! Totally influenced me as a performer. I thought all rock shows were supposed to be this big. Boy was I disappointed for many years after lol! Check out my channel to see some great performances of Alice Cooper songs by my band - Love It To Death.

[jest392]

i know wht u mean. i went to an ac/dc concert with my brother a few months ago and it was amazing and after the show my brother said to me "dont get ur hopes up. tht was probably be the best show u will ever see. now im scared the next show i will go to wont be as good

[ViddyKJB]

Maan, I love this clip, Alice at his best here... "Is 17 legal?" Ha, sweet....

[LuneyTune72]

Are you serious? 1982? More like 1973 and taken from the movie "Good To See You Again Alice Cooper." In 1982 Alice had completely different make up and was doing a solo act. This scene was during the years of the Alice Cooper Group with the original band members, Glen Buxton, Neal Smith, Michael Bruce, Dennis Dunaway, and Alice. Also where did you get this that made you think this was from '82?

[kirbygene]

I loved the group Alice Cooper. I grew up learning guitar and bass (Dunaway had some amazingly creative bass lines)

After Muscle Of Love, a slight disappointment after Billion Dollar Babies, here came Alice in a solo album. I never knew what had happened until years later.

The rock press wasn't as widespread as it is now. Now you'd have every member on TV giving their point of view on what happened. Back then groups broke up quietly, except of course the Beatles.
