    "Why thank you, Senator." I like to think that this was Strong Sad's attempt to finally get back at the extremely long list of nicknames that Strong Bad has for him, but Senator was the only thing he could come up with.

The people who manned that station were exactly like this example was, but not only that?- I no joke distinctly remember that they actually *did* play an hour or so of chanting. Maybe two or more because it was still on when I came back from my shift that day, only for it to switch back on towards 'normal' alternative underground rock music. This happened on more than one occasion too. But it wasn't a regular daily thing either.

      Well Alice Cooper's music got mainstream in the 70's, so it would be quite impressive if he were still in his 50's. Plus being a rock musician, I'd wager drugs/smoke/alcohol probably didn't do him any favors.

      Yes. I'm glad I'm not the only one who imagined a blonde guy, although I pictured younger.
      Actually, if you've listened to his show he wasn't really a druggie or quite as party hard as most rock stars are made out to be.
      Alice Cooper tells stories about other musicians and famous people that he knew/knows and it's interesting hearing what different people were really like. I made that sound way more boring than it is.
      Basically Alice Cooper and his band are their characters from Spinal Tap, the movie. The movie I saw after years of his radio show.

      Wait...you listened to Alice Cooper, who's essentially the grandfather of the goth look, and you pictured him as a blonde? X3 In all seriousness, you should check out his music. He's a landmark rock artist. He's also the guy to whom Wayne and Garth bow and chant "We're not worthy!" in Wayne's World.
