Earlier this month, PPV gave viewers a KISS. Now, rock fans can get a glimpse of another of the genre's seminal costumed performers with an Alice Cooper concert set for Oct. 28 at 8 p.m.
Carrying a suggested retail of $19.95, the show, taped from Cooper's July 20th performance in London, is being presented by Eagle Vision, which is licensing the event to In Demand. The concert, in support of his latest album, Brutal Planet, will run 90 minutes and include plenty of old favorites and Cooper's customary theatrics. The concert will repeat later that night at 11:30 p.m. and then be replayed Oct. 30 and six times during November.
In the meantime, fight fans living in New York, Miami, Houston, Dallas, Kansas City and Phoenix who don't want to stay at home and watch the heavyweight PPV action between Mike Tyson and Andrew Golota on Oct. 20 can score a seat at AMC Theaters.
TVN Entertainment, using its "digital content express" technology, will deliver the fight with state of the art digital video and sound to AMC venues in those cities at a suggested retail of $20, some $30 or so less than what those buying the brawl at home will pay.
This marks the second time in recent months that TVN has offered an event to AMC venues, which played home to the Rolling Rock Town Fair concert festival, headlined by the Red Hot Chili Peppers, in August.
In other news from the PPV event arena, TVKO will air the Dec. 2 bout between Felix Trinidad and Fernando Vargas from Las Vegas' Mandalay Bay. The junior middleweight unification match will likely carry a $44.95-$49.95 price point.
