School’s out and the half-term trip for this rock icon swapped the mosh pit for the members’ lobby.
Music legend Alice Cooper may be seen more often with Black Sabbath than Black Rod but yesterday (October 24) he took a tour of the Houses of Parliament with Hove MP Mike Weatherley.
Sporting eyeshadow and dressed in a black trenchcoat, the 63-year-old had been invited by Mr Weatherley to publicise his Rock the House event, which aims to boost live music and raise awareness of copyright issues.
Local bands from across the UK are invited to apply for the 2012 contest on the www.rockthehouse.me.uk website.
The winners will be crowned in a Parliamentary reception next year.
Mr Cooper also took the time to give some tips to budding guitarist Mr Weatherley.
