Alice Cooper has opened up about Axl Rose’s new gig with AC/DC and says he initially thought it was a joke. Speaking with Rolling Stone, Cooper said that the idea sounded too crazy to believe, but now says it’s just crazy enough to work. “At first I thought it was an April Fool’s thing. I went, ‘Oh, come on.’ Then I started thinking about it and said, ‘You know, his voice is absolutely perfect for that band. That might just work.’ I just think that’s such a unique combination,” he went on to say. “Whoever has tickets to that show has got the golden ticket, because who doesn’t want to see that?” News of Axl joining AC/DC broke earlier this week and follows news that regular fronter Brian Johnson had to leave the tour immediately due to “almost complete hearing loss.” Rose will join the tour in July and August.
