Alice Cooper will perform for the students of Arizona State University this Wednesday and U.S. President Barack Obama will deliver a speech to the crowd.
Alice has mixed with the rich and famous for decades but to share a stage with Barack Obama is indeed an honor for the rock star. "Of all the people I've ever shared a stage with Obama is the biggest rock star," said Alice. "And I'd like to thank him, in advance, for changing the national anthem to 'Schools Out'."Alice will sing his anthem at the school, backed by the band Runaway Phoenix featuring his son Dash Cooper.
Dash is a student at the school.
The university will graduate about 800 teachers, 500 engineers, 300 social workers, 150 nurses, 144 lawyers, 85 architects, 160 journalists and 170 artists and performers. About 600 people are getting their MBAs, including 22 from Mexico City and 47 from Shanghai. Another 900 will receive undergraduate business degrees, in various fields.
Alice will be in Australia in August for his Theatre of Death tour.
