I was a little worried about the kangaroos motives for awhile. Society and the internet has ruined me.
A chance incident of an unrehearsed stage routine, involving Alice Cooper and a live chicken, also led to the band receiving a lot of sensationalist press attention.
Cooper claims that the chicken incident was an accident. He says he thought, "Chickens have wings, so they must be able to fly" so, when it was on the stage, he threw it out over the crowd with the intention of having the chicken fly away. But chickens cannot fly particularly well, and the bird was instead ripped to shreds by the rowdy audience.
Frank Zappa phoned him shortly afterward to ask if the rumor that he had 'ripped the head off a live chicken and drunk its blood onstage' was true. Cooper denied the rumor, whereupon Zappa told him, "Well, whatever you do, don't tell anyone you didn't do it."
