The DC Beacon is currently running a story on shock rock legend Alice Cooper and his ongoing dedication to following Christ. An excerpt from the article is available below:

He has avoided “celebrity Christianity,” because “it’s really easy to focus on Alice Cooper and not on Christ. I’m a rock singer. I’m nothing more than that. I’m not a philosopher. I consider myself low on the totem pole of knowledgeable Christians. So, don’t look for answers from me.”

Yet he has been able to speak to others in the music scene about his faith.

“I’ve had a couple of people that were friends of mine that I’ve talked to that have vocally said they have (accepted Christ). I have talked to some big stars about this, some really horrific characters … and you’d be surprised. The ones that you would think are the furthest gone are the ones that are more apt to listen.”

Songs on Cooper’s more recent recordings have hinted at his change of heart. He sees his stage persona now as “the prophet of doom,” telling people: “‘Be careful! Satan is not a myth. Don’t sit around pretending like Satan is just a joke.’ I think my job is to warn about Satan.”

Video has surfaced of Alice Cooper's Christmas Pudding event benefiting his and wife Sheryl Cooper's Solid Rock Foundation, a Phoenix, AZ-based organization centered on helping young people get involved in music, the arts, community service, etc. The event took place Saturday, December 13th at The Commercia Theater in Phoenix, Arizona. Alice and band played a one-hour headlining set with full production. Other acts on the bill were Night Ranger, P.O.D., a band dubbed "Super Group" consisting of Joe Lynn Turner (Rainbow, Deep Purple), Johnny Lang, Nils Lofgren (Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band) and Cooper sticksman Glen Sobel.  Christian hard rockers Thousand Foot Krutch performed as well as did Co-Op, fronted by Alice Cooper's son Dash Cooper.

To conclude the event Alice and band invited all performers on stage for the grand finale, a cover of The Beatles' "Revolution", dedicated in part to recently deceased guitar tech Chris Leahy who had worked for Alice, Tool, and many others. Video of the finale can be seen below as well as footage of the Super Group performing Rainbow's "Stone Cold" and also Night Ranger performing "Sister Christian" with Glen Sobel on drums giving drummer/vocalist Kelly Keagy a chance to step out front and sing lead.
