**Q: What is "Welcome to Our Nightmare" with Criss Angel?**
"Welcome to Our Nightmare" is a limited engagement concert spectacle featuring Alice Cooper and illusionist Criss Angel (who are father and son). It is a 90-minute show combining magic, music, and mayhem, featuring Alice Cooper's biggest hits including "Poison," "I'm 18," "School's Out," and "You and Me." It premiers March 6, 2026, at the Criss Angel Theater at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas.

**Q: When was Alice Cooper inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?**
The surviving members of the original Alice Cooper band were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2011, where they performed together publicly for the first time in many years. (Note: Source data mentions both 2010 induction for which they rehearsed four songs, and the 2011 ceremony — this reflects the timeline described in the source.)

**Q: What is Alice Cooper's real name and how did the band get its name?**
Alice Cooper's real name is Vincent Furnier. The name "Alice Cooper" was chosen in 1968 when the band (then called The Nazz) discovered Todd Rundgren had a band of the same name. The name was said at random — it was largely chosen because it sounded innocuous and wholesome, in humorous contrast to the band's image and music. Contrary to popular legend, the name did NOT come from a ouija board session.

**Q: How can I join Alice Cooper's fan mailing list?**
You can join "The Sick Things" mailing list at https://alicecooper.com/#home-mailing-list__modal to stay up to date with news, tour dates, and releases.

Yes. *Starring Alice Cooper* is the official pictorial autobiography — a limited edition, hand signed and numbered visual journey of approximately 400 pages, covering Alice Cooper's life and career from pre-fame to the present day, with unseen photos and handwritten commentary by Alice Cooper himself. It was announced December 9, 2022, with three exclusive editions available.
