What song would be perfect if this were to happen, which I hope to God it will! I say Bitch or Sympathy For The Devil would be cool to see them do, It would be @#$%&' awesome if Mick where to get his head cut off, but that will never happen,lmao

I guess you guys don't know much about Alice or you're just being silly. The guy's got lots of talent, he wrote awesome songs, very smart lyrics, gives incredible performances and his setlists are a treat to his fans, always pulling out great tracks from the past. He's no Marilyn Manson, he's been around almost as much as the Stones and sure as hell he can rock the house.
Alice Cooper is a bit like Rod Stewart to me, in that way that he was cool from 1970 - 1975. After that, I don't like his works. But I'm Eighteen, Schools Out, Under My WHeels and that stuff was rocking. Elected is freaking great.
I agree with dunhill. I don't think it will happen, but I think it would be very cool to see. Not "Sympathy for the Devil" though, Mick owns that song.
The Stones have certainly had guest appearances during their show with lessor talents.
Another thing about Alice. He was doing little movies (now called video's) to his songs before anyone. I remember watching Don Kirschner's Rock Concert on Friday nights and Alice was on with a video of him in an Uncle Sam hat parading around with an American flag singing "Elected." this was long before MTV, the Monkeys or anyone else.
Alice Cooper is boss. If you don't know him then may be you are too young. Forget the boybands and all that glimmer stuff you grew up with. The lucky ones of us who had Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, David Bowie and Alice Cooper in the 70's did never have any cash extra because we spent it all on concerts and vinyl. Alice Cooper will be a great warmup act I am sure.
Sorry to say, but Alice Cooper is NOT boss. And it has got nothing to do with being young. I never liked the boybands, let alone the girlbands, that were in my early days. The feeling that one has to like, or get his/her music tastes formed by the music that's in one's youth never came to me luckily. You see there's this little band from the sixties that I happen to really love. Guess who. You were really lucky to grow up with Bowie, Zeppelin and Pink Floyd. Maybe even Black Sabbath too. But frickin' Alice Pooper? Gimme a break. He truly is the Marylin Manson of the seventies. A fookin' poster boy. And yes I have heard his work. God awful. Self absorbed, face painting, bad composition making, wannabe tough, ugly mofo he is. And there's no denying it.

Right on Woody24....I used to love to stay up and watch Don Kirschner's Rock Concert on Friday nights here in the USA. I remember watching a whole show dedicated to Alice's Welcome To My Nightmare album and it was like a bunch of macabre videos. Very theatrical scary rock stuff. It was way cool...and like you said, it was way before MTV.
I got to see Alice in Tacoma while in Seattle last October, and I loved it! I must admit that the most known AC song to me is Poison (was a teenager when that came and it was one of my favourites), but I thought it was a great show and I would see him again if given the chance! I got psyched in early spring seeing he would play in Stavanger June 7, and the original Stones date in Bergen was June 6. The two cities are not too far from each other, so I thought the chance was quite good that Alice would be the Warm-up. But alas.
