Alice Cooper Announces 'Devil On My Shoulder' Memoir and October U.K. Q&A Tour

Billed as his definitive life story, the memoir probes the divide separating the 'Alice' persona from Vincent Furnier.

Overview

  • The book is slated for October release via Ebury Spotlight in the U.K. and Da Capo in the U.S., with most outlets citing Oct. 8 while Rolling Stone lists Oct. 6.
  • An eight-date speaking tour runs Oct. 11–20 across U.K. theaters, featuring an onstage conversation with a guest moderator followed by audience Q&A.
  • Pre-orders and tour tickets are scheduled to go on sale Friday, March 13 at 10 a.m. via AEG, with the Manchester Opera House date available through ATG.
  • Cooper says the memoir separates myth from reality by tracing his long-running tension between the shock-rock character and the man who legally took the name.
  • Coverage highlights promised anecdotes about figures such as Salvador Dalí, John Lennon and Jimi Hendrix, plus reflections on signature stagecraft including the guillotine and the snake.
