Earlier this week, Ned of the WGRD 97.9 FM radio station in Grand Rapids, Michigan conducted an interview with MÖTLEY CRÜE drummer Tommy Lee and legendary rocker Alice Cooper.
Asked if he thinks any of the current crop of rock bands have the potential to leave a legacy that is comparable to those of MÖTLEY CRÜE and ALICE COOPER, Alice responded: “It’s a different world [right now]. We were in a golden age of… where records… You’d go to a record store and buy records. And when you bought the records, you owned a piece of MÖTLEY CRÜE, you’d own a piece of ALICE COOPER. And you’d stand in line to buy that record. I think now, it’s so disposable. Bands stay around for a year and a half, and you can’t really dedicate your life to them, because you know they’re not gonna be around next year. Whereas with MÖTLEY and ALICE, there’s a security in that; there’s a security that those bands are gonna be there for a long time.”
