ALICE COOPER Performs 'School's Out' With Kids Of 'Rock School'

January 27, 2005

According to Newsday.com, ALICE COOPER performed his classic track "School's Out" with the kids of "Rock School", Don Argott's documentary about the Philadelphia after-school program that inspired Rick Linklater's popular 2003 movie, "School of Rock".

The performance took place on Monday (Jan. 24) at the "Rock School" launch party at the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah.

Paul Green School of Rock teaches music to children by grouping them into bands and introducing them to the catalogs of rock and roll's musical giants. Everything from AC/DC to FRANK ZAPPA is fair game, with plenty of PINK FLOYD, BLACK SABBATH and QUEEN mixed in for good measure.

Cooper and MEGADETH's Dave Mustaine are among the prominent artists contributing to the soundtrack of "Rock School", which will be a mix of cover songs played by the students along with the original artists.

The documentary will be released in theaters nationwide in March. It will be distributed by New Market Films, which has distributed noted films such as "The Passion of the Christ" and "Donnie Darko".
