Band Name Origins:

  • Alice Cooper was actually an 18th century witch. The modern Alice Cooper(Vince Furnier) legally changed his name to this in the 20th Century. Submitted by: SarahSays
  • Alice Cooper thought of that name because he wanted something similar to "Lizzy Borden" the murderer. He said he imagined "alice cooper" being a tiny girl with a huge ax hidden behind her back. One night he was messing with a ouija board and asked it, who is Alice Cooper? The board spelled out his name, Vincent Damon Furnier. Submitted by: Nick Mancini

Story about this misheard lyric by: Yomi Mizuhara

I was on a trip down to Santa Barbara, CA with a bunch of friends for a choir competition, and this song was blaring on the bus. A friend of mine sang the chorus as misheard above, and got a purse in the face from a fellow classmate who happened to be a self-defined "feminist". Then someone corrected him, and laughing ensued for the next year...

What A Band is Best Known For (aside from their music):

"His alleged "animal sacrifice" at a concert"
In 1969 at a concert stop on Toronto Alice Cooper was the subject of a lot of contreversey after a fan threw a chicken on the stage. Alice threw it back thinking that it would fly. The chicken didn't fly so much as it plummeted and the audience tore it to pieces. Alice was horrified to find that the newspapers the next day had caught wind of the incident and wrote headlines such as "Alice Cooper kills a chicken and the blood runs down." To add to this urban myth Frank Zappa phoned Alice Cooper and asked him if he had sacrificed a chicken on stage. He replied "No I didn't." Frank Zappa's reaction was "don't tell anybody." To this day the name Alice Cooper is still regarded as the "chicken killer" even though he claims that he never did sacrifice a chicken.
