Billion Dollar Babies tour, makeup still wet
A 1974 tour interview finds Alice Cooper still in the Billion Dollar Babies circus: makeup barely set, guillotine talk close at hand, and a deadpan Midwestern voice explaining shock rock like a stage plot. He separates Vincent Furnier from the Alice character without killing the joke.
The clip is theatre logistics more than confession. Blood, snakes, and dollar signs are props; the control is the point.
