ALICE COOPER And METALLICA Join Forces
January 3, 2011, 13 years ago
ALICE COOPER rang in the new year by joining fellow Rock And Roll Hall Of Famers James Hetfield (METALLICA) and Mick Fleetwood (FLEETWOOD MAC) along with Pat Simmons (THE DOOBIE BROTHERS) and Mike Kroeger (NICKELBACK) on stage in Maui to form a Supergroup like no other! The group got together to play on New Year's Eve for the MALA Benefit. The benefit helped the Maui Food Bank. Below is a picture (courtesy of ShootingStarsPhotography.com) of this Supergroup playing 'School's Out'.
Als previously reported, Alice Cooper will be inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame with his band on March 14th.
"Getting in the Hall of Fame is about the ultimate thing you can do when you're a garage band from Cortez High in Phoenix," Cooper said. "It's the most humbling thing in the world when you realize who else is in there. You look out at the audience, and every guy who influenced you is sitting there, and they are the people who voted on you."Cooper and his original band - guitarist Michael Bruce, bassist Dennis Dunaway, drummer Neal Smith and late guitarist Glen Buxton - will be honored at a ceremony in New York City.
