A school reunion for Alice Cooper

THE Alice Cooper Band are to be reunited more than 42 years after they split up.

The original line-up of the group, whose biggest hit was School’s Out in 1972, have reformed — apart from Glen Buxton, who died in 1997. They will embark on a five-date UK tour later this year in Leeds, Birmingham, Glasgow and London.

Cooper said: ‘When the original band broke up in 1975, there was no bad blood. We had gone to high school together and had recorded something like five platinum albums in a row.’
