School’s out. Alice Cooper is coming to Springfield.
Juanita K. Hammons Hall staff announced the legendary rocker with a raspy voice and a horror-inspired stage presence will play Springfield Aug. 15. Tickets go on sale Friday, June 23, at 10 a.m.
Cooper, 75, has a career that spans five decades. The Too Close for Comfort Tour features music rock fans from several generations should enjoy, plus a stage show featuring “electric chairs, guillotines, fake blood and boa constrictors,” according to the official concert announcement.
Cooper released the album “Detroit Stories” in 2021. According to a promotional press release, the album is inspired by “the garage rock music of Detroit,” from the 1960s.
