School’s out for summer. School’s out forever. And now it’s time for the school reunion during the summer holidays as Alice Cooper‘s original members reunite and hold a very intimate, celebratory event in London.
Taking place on Thursday, July 24 at the 900-capacity Union ChapelIslington‘s iconic venue will play host to the small event with Rough Trade that marks the release of the four original members’ (Alice Cooper, Dennis Dunaway, Neal Smithand Michael Bruce) first new music in over 50 years.

The Revenge Of Alice Cooper marks their first LP together since Muscle Of Love in 1973, and also sees them join forces with producer Bob Ezrin to capture that early 70s sound half a century later. Glen Buxtonwho was the band’s original guitarist and passed away in 1997, also makes a posthumous appearance on the new record.
Fans who do manage to grab tickets will need to ensure they arrive on time for the listening party of The Revenge Of Alice Cooper at 7pm (with doors opening at 6pm), which is then followed by a Q&A at 8pm with the four original members, hosted by Sir Tim Rice. Alice Cooper fanatics can expect to hear tales from a lifetime, and if you miss out on tickets to be there in person, you’ll be able to tune into the live stream via earMUSIC and Alice Cooper’s YouTube channel.
It’s a tightly-packed evening in a setting you wouldn’t normally get to see the band. While they won’t be playing as a group, it’s a rare chance to see them together and be among the party to hear their first recorded music together for the first time in 50 years.
