I was a huge Alice Cooper fan and saw the Killer concert. I was playing in my first band at the time. We performed “Eighteen” and “Under My Wheels”. Probably a couple of other tunes. By the time “School’s Out” rolled around I was beginning to lose interest in the band. The songs were too commercial and somewhat silly. “I Want to Be Elected” was no “Ballad of Dwight”.

I remember doing “Eighteen” and “Be My Lover” in a couple of the bands I was in right after high school. A couple of friends of mine were in a band that covered “Halo of Flies” (they did a pretty good job with it as I recall). I agree that Alice Cooper got a bit too commercial in the later recordings but as long as the girls were dancing to the songs, we played them.
My biggest fear is when I die, my wife will sell my guitars for what I told her they cost.

I was a teenager, the cassette I bought from the first licorice pizza store, before they expanded. I liked the entire album. Public Animal number 9. Blue turk too, crazy lyrics. Schools out was a playlist Staple on Am radio too. Same time basically Machine Head came out, the best Zep stuff, etc. great time to be growing up. Glen Buxtons riff was cool. Then a few years and Bob Ezrin and Welcome to my nightmare, that destroyed my interest abd was the end for my interest. He did the same bland thing for Kiss Destoyer. Not an Ezrin fan.
Schools out had decent tunes, I liked most the album, wore the cassette out.
