Sound: At age 59 Cooper still has an amazing voice. Perfect timing and everything. I think that he is rocks greatest frontman. The band was kick ass too. Eric Singer was on drums and I'm sure that the rest were just pro musicians Who play for whoever plays best. The used a lot of cool guitars. Lots of Gibsons. My least favorite was a white SG. I love SGs but I hate white ones. I saw Tony Iommi playing one pnce and it made me gag. Anyway great sound. Perfect to back him up. // 10
Perfomance: I really regret that I can't tell you every song but I can say that he definitely knows what his audience wants to hear. He played all of the classics. He did leave out a few of my favorites though. He didn't play "Bed Of Nails" or "Teenage Lament 74'". He did play one of my favorites off of the Billion Dollar Babies album called "Raped and Freezin"! One of the best sounding songs of the night was without a doubt "Poison" There was so many cool things that happened during the show it's hard to believe. At the very beginning at the end of "No More Mr. Nice Guy" he threw his cane into the audience and I caught it. It's on display so all of my jealous friends can see it now! // 10
Impression: It took place in a small theater in Mobile, Alabama called The Saenger. The opening act was Lillian Axe. They were pretty good but everyone came to see Cooper and that was pretty obvious. I loved everything about the show. There were amazing theatrics and since there was no barricades I was leaning on the stage the whole time and Cooper was constantly standing right in front of me. Plus we got lots of fake blood on us. Very cool.The show cost fifty dollars and it was well worth the money. I was even telling a friend of mine that I would definitely go see him again. // 10
