Stevie Nicks Gardenburger

cliffdweller · #1 01-13-2005, 02:07 PM

Okay, I posted something about this on the "Is Stevie a Vegitarian" thread, but I guess I'll start a thread about it. So I was in Phoenix last week and went to Cooperstown, Alice Cooper's restaurant in downtown Phoenix. Well, they have an item on the menu called, "The Stevie Nicks Gardenburger" and well, I thought it was a pretty damned hilarious little factoid.

Anyway, I also heard some of Alice's radio show while I was there...and I found out from my sister that he's got conservative leanings. Hmmm...I've always like Alice but now, I dunno, I mean I'll still like some of his music but I can't abide by any conservativism from anyone!

Anyway, I thought I'd share that little tidbit about the burger. Oh, and by the way, I had the Megadeth meatloaf and it was pretty darned good!

I don't think they had the Stevie Nicks Garden burger last time I was at Cooperstown...damn - I might have tried it, and I know my ex would have had it

I like Cooperstown - I like Phoenix...I think that's where I go when I make my next move

Yeah, Phoenix is a great city. I have to admit the restaurant was pretty awesome, there were posters and all kinds of rock and roll memorabilia everywhere! Great for rock music lovers.

My sister and her friend shared the gigantic hot dog before the 2000 AHI show...good stuff - I was too nervous to eat lol...it was my first Stevie concert

I am also surprised about Alice Cooper's conservative leanings...crazy

Same here. I didn't eat or drink anything practically that whole day before my first FM concert. I don't know if it was nerves or the fear of having to go to the bathroom and miss something in the show.

Yeah it's weird huh? During his radio show he all but defended modern day black face minstrelsey and then a friend of mine told me about some negative comments he made recently about anti-Bush supporters, like he may be a supporter. I don't know, I may have it all wrong but that seems fishy to me.

That's pretty funny. I just try to hold it, although that's hard to do when you're jumping up and down!

good to know I wasn't the only one like that...I felt like such an idiot - I was all nervous but thinking, "What the heck - I'm not the one performing"

I'm better about it now - can eat before shows no problem...BUT when I saw her on the TISL tour I did end up having to go to the bathroom SO badly by the end...I couln't even scream or anything - all my concentration went into holding it

...I made it through okay...

The second show I went to I ate before, but I was fine throughout the show. I guess I didn't think about it. If Stevie only knew what we went through...

he is not drinking.

Vincent Furnier is cool in my books no matter what his political views are (Unlike Ted Nugent who grates my nerves now non-musically), which are always going to contrast with his on-stage other-self Alice Cooper.

~S~

eating before a show as long as I don't end up with food poisoning like I did at the Dallas Hard Rock Cafe before the Fleetwood Mac show that night in July 2003, Otherwise I'm not as nervous as I am just anxious for the show to start.

Oh - I didn't know that

I don't actually know anything about Alice Cooper - except that he apparently has conservative leanings
