Alice Cooper will return to the UK for his third Halloween Night of Fear tour this October, a now annual institution of the macabre, celebration of gore and all out rock n roll fright fest.

Alice is requesting that fans turn out in force at his seven dates in the most outrageous costumes that they can muster.

I take the time to put this here because I really really really wish I could attend this but I live on the wrong continent. I am hoping some fellow AC and/or Loaded fan who gets to attend this tour will put review, pics and or bootleg download in here. I got to see/hear Alice and his band in a grand old music hall last August - one of the best sound mixes I have ever heard and Halo of Flies was exquisite. I have never heard Loaded live and this pairing knocked me out when I first read of it from Duff himself in a tweet. He's psyched too.

Orianthi really tears it up with the Coop, and besides Loaded I think Ugly Kid Joe would be more than decent.

Orianthi joined the group after the U.S. tour I saw. I saw the announcement and looked her up online but haven't read anything or seen vid clips of the show after her addition until your post. Good to hear she is well received. I will be following up these tour dates trawling YouTube to see what I might find, both AC and Loaded.

I avoided peeking at clips prior to the show I saw so that I was surprised and charmed by the new theatrical developments, especially Frankenstein's monster  by avoiding show spoilers.

All the good tickets are gone. As usual.

I'm going to go to the Nottingham show, even though I fucking hate the city of Nottingham.
