Then my stage name. And then a monster. Now I’ve written a book that tracks Alice’s evolution, how he and I became almost fatally intertwined, and how I’ve tamed him at last. After over thirty records and sixty-plus years, the story of Alice Cooper has become a tangle of embellishments, elaborations and outright fabrications, that I think it’s time to sort reality from myth: the slaughtered chickens, the bans and record burnings, the evangelical terrors, Ouija boards and poltergeists, resurrections and revenge from the grave, the cross-dressers, thieves, drug addicts and hopeless alcoholics, the house fires and car crashes—all will be revealed for what they really were.I’m also coming clean about the extent of my addictions, my blackout years, the creative process fuelled by alcohol, drugs and round-the-clock TV, my scramble to the top of the pile and the terrible slide back down. I want to talk about the origin of Cold Ethyl, the guillotine and the dead babies, the best and worst of my reviews, my feelings of guilt and regret after people got hurt or died, what life was like on the road until the wheels came off the bus, what a romantic I am at heart and how I’ve stayed married for half a century even after my wife came at me with a frying pan.And I want to talk about God. Don’t worry, I’m not gonna bang you on the head with a Bible, I just want to describe how it is that I found Him dwelling in me. Alice, that inveterate liar, was a voice in my ear for so long, whispering lies and sweet nothings, pretending to be my better conscience and my inspiration, pretending to be me, that I think it’s only right to present both sides of the story: the angel on one shoulder, the devil on the other. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/95f00b10-9f76-11f1-a52b-970a4b5345e7-rimg-w494-h740-dcf8f8f8-gmir.jpg Photo credit: Jenny RisherNo stranger to doing things his own way, Alice Cooper has cast a long shadow over rock music with an unrivaled live show and timeless anthems like “School’s Out,” “No Mr. Nice Guy,” and “Poison.” Selling over 50 million albums worldwide, he earned a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame® in 2003, and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame® inducted him as part of its class of 2011. Boasting one of the most influential catalogues in history, Rolling Stone cited 1971’s platinum-certified Love It To Death among the “500 Greatest Albums of All Time,” while other platinum releases spanned the seminal Killer [1971], School’s Out [1972], the Billboard 200 #1 Billion Dollar Babies [1973], Welcome to My Nightmare [1975], and Trash [1989], to name a few. The latter even graced Rolling Stone’s “50 Greatest Hair Metal Albums of All Time.” - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/new-york/alice-cooper-devil-on-my-shoulder/100001996826414559 - **Event Categories**: music, workshops, entertainment - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 51.34, max: 51.34, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: New York - **state**: NY - **country**: United States - **location**: Strand Bookstore - **lat**: 40.73325150000001 - **long**: -73.99095319999999 - **full address**: Strand Bookstore, 828 Broadway, New York, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Alice Cooper: Devil on My Shoulder - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/c34f71eaeb2ec54f99e6a6a5cf4f538c375c63b7bcee99244cf1d75ef09128a7-rimg-w1200-h628-dcd81838-gmir.png?v=1787546715 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Alice Cooper: Devil on My Shoulder being held? - **A:** Alice Cooper: Devil on My Shoulder takes place on Wed, 07 Oct, 2026 at 07:00 pm to Wed, 07 Oct, 2026 at 08:30 pm at Strand Bookstore, 828 Broadway, New York, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Alice Cooper: Devil on My Shoulder? - **A:** Alice Cooper: Devil on My Shoulder is organized by The Strand Book Store. - **Q**: What has been the experience of attendees at The Strand Book Store's events? - **A:** Attendees have given The Strand Book Store a rating of 5/5 based on reviews from early attendees on AllEvents.

Our founder Benjamin Bass was all of twenty-five years old when he began his modest used bookstore and sought to create a place where books would be loved, and book lovers could congregate. Ninety years and a move over to Broadway, the Strand is still run by the Bass Family and is home to four floors of over 2.5 million used, new, and rare books, a wide array of bookish gifts, and fun literary events held almost every night of the week. From the dollar carts outside to the Rare Book Room on the third floor, and cheeky graffiti-ing throughout the store courtesy of Steve “EPSO” Powers, the iconic store now stands testament a place for book lovers to explore." } ] } ] ```
