Alice Cooper Plotting Musical With Mighty Boosh's Noel Fielding

November 12, 2010

Alice Copper has revealed that he has discussed writing a musical with Mighty Boosh star Noel Fielding.

The 62-year-old singer said he was a big fan of the comedian and that he would be “fun to work with”.

“I was talking to Noel over at the pub,” he said. “It started out being a joke, but now we think it wouldn’t be a bad idea doing a musical.”

Cooper also revealed that he was a big fan of The Horrors and guitarist Josh Hayward.

Meanwhile, the veteran singer was among the guests at the Classic Rock Roll Of Honour awards in London earlier this week.
