Alice Cooper was Dan Rather’s guest on Wednesday night’s “Big Interview” show on AXS and talked about the early days of his career when he had a hard time separating himself from his over-the-top stage persona. He said he got to a point where he didn’t really know where Alice began. “If I went to a bar that night, I thought ‘Do I take the snake? Do I put the makeup on? I don’t want to disappoint anybody’, but when I got sober I realized I had to separate the two. Alice also says that he actually has very little in common with his alter ego. “He’s a very arrogant villain. He’s very condescending and the audience loves that and I’ll play it to the hilt, but as soon as the curtain comes down I’m like ‘Did The Tigers win today?’. Alice added that he has three grandsons, he and his wife go to church on Sunday, He was a in the PTA and coached Little League.
