Alice Cooper is a man of contradictions: A subversive performer with a golf habit. A recovered alcoholic who owns a bar. A heavy metal rocker with a strong sense of family values. During a phone interview between the legendary master of horrors and frights and the Alibi , Alice Cooper talked about everything from reality shows to miracles. We didn’t have space for the full conversation, so we gathered the most choice quotes for your incongruous reading pleasure.
