Cooper's Perversions Delight Crowd
By DAVE STRINGER
Kansan Reviewer
Alice Cooper and his road show version of "Billion Dollar Babies" were fed to a packed Allen Field House audience last night. The crowd ate up the violence, the sexual perversion, gorged themselves on the insults, burped and asked for dessert.
The show was a visual as well as a musical experience. The stage Alice brings with him is a giant pyramid of steel, lights and projections of Alice and his boys use as a playground.
The music is an invitation to join the band, the most "outragant" since Iggy and Kanye. It's a bit of a challenge.
"Billion Dollar Babies" started mean and nasty, got down to some basic perversion and then really hit the gutter as the people in a celebration of what makes us people.
Aice and his band began the evening with their hit song "Hello Hurray" setting a somewhat placid tone and leaving the audience with a violent deluge of theatrical rock to follow.
Alice's fantasies, as pal to music, formed the bass for most of that perversely violent deluge. "Billion Dollar Babies," the title song, contains the confessions of Alice's sexual fantasies, which are many and varied.
"Elected," the last fall last, was followed by "More Mr. Nice Guy," the story of a man named Nick Snyder.

Flo and Eddie began the show slowly. They are two guys who have seen service as ex Turtles and ex-Mothers. The first couple have seen evidence of either previous experience.
Flo hid behind some really lousy guitar playing. Flo didn't even hide well. Eddie sang well enough, but there wasn't that certain spark of creativity or excitement.

"Billion Dollar Babies" also spoke with some fortunes in the crowd and encouraged an exchange of ideas, which included comments from the audience at large.

Alice in a press conference before the show said he was a lover of violence, an exposer of fantasies and a baseball nut. He drinks a lot of beer and believes that everyone has fantasies equal to or better than his, he said. Contrary to popular belief.

hearings Thursday on the issue and is scheduled to write a report on its findings
Many legislators think the governor's veto of the building purchase is linked to the Senate's refusal to confirm three Docking appointees.
Blythe's confirmation has been delayed because he is nominated to fill a Republican slot on the commission, but has not voted in a Republican primary since 1964, has not voted in the GOP and lists two Democrats as references on his appointment form.
The Senate Ways and Means Committee delayed Senate confirmation of the three for further investigation because McLain and Brandt are alleged to have mishandled a 444 million state contract award for expansion of the University of Kansas Medical Center.
Those appointments are for Robert Brandt as secretary of administration, Kerneth McLan as state architect and Rudy Hyde to the Civil Service Commission.
