New Club 'Alice Cooper' Meets Valley Teens

Alice Cooper loves you! You'll love Alice Cooper.

The Valley's newest teen night club opened last night with Alice Cooper, formerly the Nazz, namesake of the club. Tonight, the second night of the club's grand opening weekend features Alice Cooper, Thirst and Art Willy.

Alice Cooper's entire interior color scheme is done in Alice's favorite color — pink. (Alice the group, that is.)

The building, located at 5555 E. Van Buren, was completely redecorated, including wood paneling on the walls and pink crepe-like material draped from the ceiling of the lobby.

With this combination, Alice Cooper is a sure winner.


Thirst, who recently cut their hair to play in schools, have been compiling quite a resume of impressive gigs inclubing Imperial Valley College, Berkeley University, the Sports Arena in San Diego with the Young Rascals and Beau Brummel's.

Pat Roberts, drummer and leader of the band, even played a while with the Hardtimes. Thirst is the second shot of Alice Cooper's double barreled weekend.
