"See, Aerosmith have got it made," Alice Cooper was saying the
other day. "They just write about sex. And I'm sure Steven Tyler is as horny
today as he was at 17, so they just keep on doing it. They've cornered the
market on sex. Sex never gets old." Oh, how right you are, Alice. And what have
you cornered the market on? "I don't think I'd mind being the Vincent
Price or Edgar Allan Poe of rock and roll." There you have it -- and if Mr.
Cooper ever gets tired of golf and spook rock, we'd be happy to have him in the
critics' union. For the present, Alice takes over the Orpheum (617-931-2000) in
Boston tonight (Thursday, November 1) while Aerosmith, with the Cult in
tow, take on the sold-out FleetCenter (617-931-2000) in Boston on Sunday and
the Dunkin' Donuts Civic Center (401-331-6700) in Providence on Tuesday. |
