Supergroup The Hollywood Vampires Kick Off Live Dates In Los Angeles

Taken from the unofficial name of the celebrity group who used to hang out after hours at the Rainbow Bar & Grill in Los Angeles in the 1970s, the Hollywood Vampires formed last year (14) and started working on a series of covers, including a new rendition of Cooper's School's Out.

The group's first album, which features guest spots from Sir Paul MCCartney, Dave Grohl and the late Christopher Lee, will be released on 9 September (15) and now Cooper and his cohorts have announced a two-night stint at the Roxy in Los Angeles to kickstart a tour a week later (16-17Sep15).

The supergroup will also perform at the Rock in Rio festival in Brazil on 24 September (15).
