A brand-new edition of Jimmy Kimmel’s hilarious Mean Tweets segment has arrived – and it features some pretty brutal comments about our favourite bands and artists. Appearing in the franchise for the second time are Green Day and Alice Cooper, while Jane’s Addiction legend Perry Farrell also gets the chance to read out the internet’s most harsh thoughts. All three seem to take the comments relatively well – particularly Green Day, who reply to one Twitter user’s thoughts that drummer Tré Cool looks like the “emo version of Ted Cruz” by pointing out that bassist Mike Dirnt looks like Russian president Vladimir Putin. That leaves one question, then: which politician does frontman Billie Joe Armstrong most resemble? Read this next: Perry Farr...
Live from the.. -CD+Blry-
CD + Blu-ray. By 1974, the Alice Cooper group had risen to the upper echelon of rock stardom... and then, parted ways. In October 2015, over 40 years later, record store owner and superfan Chris Penn convinced the original line-up to reunite for a very special performance at his record store Good Records in Dallas, Texas. Alice Cooper (vocals), Michael Bruce (guitar), Dennis Dunaway (bass) and Neal Smith (drums) were joined on stage by Alice's current guitarist Ryan Roxie (standing in for the late Glen Buxton). A packed audience, believing they had come to Good Records for Dennis Dunaway's 'Snakes! Guillotines! Electric Chairs!' book signing, were surprised to bear witness to a full-blown happening. The historic reunion show including all-time classics such as "No More Mr. Nice Guy", "I'm Eighteen" and "School's Out" is now becoming available for the very first time worldwide. Luckily the event was documented. "Live From The Astroturf, Alice Cooper" (edited and directed by Steven Gaddis) toured the world to the acclaim of music fans and rock journalists alike. The documentary won multiple awards for it's coverage of the historic event. Now all Alice Cooper fans and rock music lovers across the globe can enjoy this movie as it's included as a video bonus to this live album. Pop the popcorn, blow up the balloons, dim the lights, and crank it up!
