August 13, 2023, a year ago
Shock rock legend Alice Cooper, who also fronts Hollywood Vampires - featuring Johnny Depp, Joe Perry and Tommy Henriksen - recently guested on QFM96's Torg & Elliott program. During the chat he discussed working and touring with the band.
Alice: "Johnny's great. When he's with us he's not a movie star, he's a guitar player. And he's a great guitar player. You don't go out with Jeff Beck unbless you can play guitar, and he really is a player. The band is so tight. We've been together nine years and there's never been one argument in that band. It's just fun."
