Members misterhinkydink Posted October 31, 2007 Members Share Posted October 31, 2007 He was playing downtown within walking distance so we checked it out. Same old Alice which is what people want. It was a two hour set which was impressive. His players are really good and I finally heard a bass/drum solo that was not bad. Alice certainly isn't getting any prettier.

Members NeonVomit Posted October 31, 2007 Members Share Posted October 31, 2007 He's an ugly mofo who will be rockin' till he drops. Awsomeness. And his last couple of albums have been pretty good, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Guitzilla Posted October 31, 2007 Members Share Posted October 31, 2007 Alice said that he will quit when he can't blow away any other band off the stage. I saw him last year and he certainly blew many bands away. His band was top-notch and Alice's perfomance was exceptional. Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members allan grossman Posted October 31, 2007 Members Share Posted October 31, 2007 He's local these days. Hosts a radio show on a local station on the weekends - I liked him when I was a kid but have gained a lot more respect for him now that I've heard his opinions on a buncha stuff.

Yep - I heard him with Terri Gross on NPR (he was promoting a new book, i think) and he just comes across as a very centered and intelligent guy. Great sense of humor too.

Members bassman1956 Posted October 31, 2007 Members Share Posted October 31, 2007 Saw him last year at the Rialto in Joliet. I went along because I thought it would be some campy fun. Great show!

It was a great show..I'm glad that I had hearing protection. Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which may or may not be a good thing depending on one's perspective. (Personally, I think he kicks major ass.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members chubrocker Posted October 31, 2007 Members Share Posted October 31, 2007 On many levels, Alice is a BRILLIANT man!! He is a great performer and a good businessman overall. I really like his radio show too. He always throws in some odd song from the 60's and 70's that's really kewl. My only beef is that with all his money, can't he get a decent mic for his radio show!!
