Alice Cooper is coming to the Paramount Theatre in Cedar Rapids on September 30th. Tickets for the show will go on-sale this Friday morning at 10 at all the usual outlets. So I thought we’d feature an Alice song for today’s Forgotten 45.
“No More Mr. Nice Guy” was his 5th Top 40 hit reaching #25 on the charts back in 1973 and it was on this date in 1977 that he played to an audience of 40,000 in Sydney, Australia, the largest crowd to attend a rock concert in the country’s history. After the show Cooper was placed under house arrest at his hotel until he posted a bond for $59,632. That amount was the sum that a promoter claimed to have paid Cooper for a 1975 Australia tour he never made. The two settled when it was found that the promoter did not fulfill his part of the agreement either.
We’re giving you the chance to win tickets to see him in concert. Just text ALICE to 319-364-1057, we’ll announce the winners Friday morning.
The Forgotten 45 is sponsored by Pro Wall Construction, they are seeking individuals with skills in finish carpentry, sheet rock, and finishing. They need experienced and semi-experienced workers. Call (641) 696-5919, veterans are strongly encouraged to apply.
