Alice Cooper is one of those timeless icons of our era. Whether you saw his show twenty years ago or this past Saturday, March 26th, at Meridian Hall in Toronto, he puts on one hell of a concert.
At 74 years young, we can only wish to be in as amazing shape as he is. Surrounding himself with phenomenal musicians such as Chuck Garric on bass, Nita Strauss, Ryan Roxie, Tommy Henriksen on guitars, and Glen Sobel keeping the beat on drums certainly adds a little more of a heavy edge to his music.
It’s always nice to see multiple generations of a family enjoying the same show together. That’s exactly what Saturday’s show was like; all ages were present and enjoying Alice’s magic.
Anaheim, California’s rockers Buckcherry started the evening off and did a great job of getting people bouncing in their seats. Which in itself is a pretty cool sight to see.
It was a great evening of Rock’n’Roll. At the same time, Toronto’s Air Canada Centre was evacuated during the Raptors game due to a fire in an overhead hanging speaker. The excitement in this city just never ends.
