The Rockblog Goes to Phoenix
The Rockblog is away from home at the moment, having flown to Phoenix to catch this afternoon’s NFC Championship game between the Arizona Cardinals and Philadelphia Eagles. If their are any EntreCard droppers wanting to do the EntreCard competition, there was your answer.
One of the Phoenix area’s most famous residents is of course one of my all-time favourite rockers, Alice Cooper.
As well as being the number one shock-rocker in the world and an avid golfer, Alice also owns a restaurant and bar in Phoenix called Alice Cooperstown.
Alice Cooperstown is part rock bar and part sports bar and is billed as “Where Rock Meets Jock”. Considering the Rockblog is flying out to Phoenix to watch a football game, the saying seems appropriate.
Besides my brothers and watching the Eagles kick the stuffing out of the Cardinals (fingers crossed), the only other thing I really want to do while in Arizona is visit Alice Cooperstown. Hopefully when I get back next week I’ll have some pictures to show the Rockblog readers.
In the meantime here is an often overlooked Alice Cooper song from the mid-80s. “He’s Back (The Man Behind the Mask)”was the theme tune for Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives and the song can also be used to describe Alice’s return to the music industry. Enjoy!
