March 14 :
rare GLAMNATION (Eric Singer) video footage found From
:
Tolvis
A friend of mine just found his old master video tapes from when
GLAMNATION
toured Scandinavia in April 2000. He kindly lent me the tapes to
transfer and upload, they're not spectacular by any means but (like
most of you) I never thought I'd see film and sound footage of Eric
Singer performing with
GLAMNATION.

GLAMNATION was a L.A. Glam covers band formed
in 1999 by Ryan Roxie (Electric
Angels).
The fun glam band used to play around the L.A. area in summer of 1999
and even did play Scandinavia April 2000. The 2000 line up was Eric Singer
(drums, lead vocals),
Ryan Roxie (guitars),
Eric Dover (lead vocals, guitars),
Stefan Adika (bass) and
Teddy Zig Zag (keyboards).
Except for bass player Stefan Adika (L.A. Guns,
Gilby Clarke), the 2000 line up of GlamNation
became Alice Cooper 2001 backing band, and with Chuck Garric on bass
they recorded "The Eyes Of Alice Cooper"
(2003).
