According to Billboard.biz, Rondor Music Publishing has signed ALICE COOPER to a worldwide publishing agreement and re-upped the company's publishing agreement with producer Bob Ezrin, who has worked with Cooper as a producer, co-writer, arranger and musician, as well as other artists like KISS, LOU REED, NINE-INCH NAILS and THE DARKNESS.

Cooper released Welcome 2 My Nightmare on September 13. "Bob played some of the new Alice Cooper record last December and I was literally blown away by the quality of the production and the songwriting collaboration between the two of them," said Rondor Music Publishing president Lance Freed. "At Bob's suggestion I spoke with Alice, and I told him we absolutely had to publish his music. He agreed to join us!"

As previously reported, visitors to London next month can enjoy a Halloween to remember courtesy of Alice Cooper's Halloween Night Of Fear.

The ghoulish show will be arriving at Alexandra Palace on October 29th 2011 as part of a UK tour that also takes in Sheffield, Birmingham, Manchester and Glasgow.

Alice Cooper has been wowing rock fans since 1969 and launched his latest album, Welcome 2 My Nightmare, earlier this month.

During the Halloween Night of Fear, attendees will see the heavy metal legend presiding over a bizarre talent show, in which local performance artists will aim to impress and terrify the crowds in equal measure.

Auditions were conducted in Hyde Park over the summer, allowing Cooper and a panel of judges to pick out three acts to perform on stage on October 29th, with the winner to be decided by the audience.

The evening will also incorporate one of the largest costume parties in the country, with thousands expected to turn up in Halloween garb for a chance to win cash prizes.

Doors open at 17:30 BST, with the show itself running from 18:00 until 23:00, while tickets will cost £33.50 for non-London residents.

Rock devotees can find a wide selection of London hotels at LateRooms.com, such as the Mint Hotel Westminster.
