“For ‘Road’, I wanted the band to be involved in the foundation of all the songs,” said Alice in a press statement. “I only see these guys when we’re on the road. So, I wanted them to be as tight as they are for the show but on all new material. When you have a band this good, I believe in showing it off, and this is my way of doing so.”
A press statement reveals that the tour is set to bring fans “closer than ever to Alice”, with giant video screens blending the live action with pre-recorded scenes.
Attendees can expect to hear classics like ‘Under My Wheels’, ‘I’m Eighteen’, ‘School’s Out’, ‘Poison’, ‘Billion Dollar Babies’ and ‘No More Mr Nice Guy’.
