There's a lot of speculation and rumours flying around gesturing that this could be Eddie's health issues again.
Since no official reason has been given at this point, so speculation is all over the place, from the possibility of Eddie's health to David Lee Roth in concerns over his voice holding up ...
Is Sammy Hagar waiting in the wings, I somehow doubt it!

The Strange Case - Alice Cooper Now On DVD
The Strange Case Of Alice Cooper is more than a concert film.
It is the warped tale of one man's descent into madness, a theatrical rock 'n' roll spectacle that could only emerge from the twisted imagination of Alice Cooper.
Filmed during a stop on the Madhouse Rock Tour in 1979, Strange Case was inspired by Alice's stay in a New York sanitarium and the people he encountered there. Vincent Price introduces the proceedings as ghoulish doctors and transvestite nurses cross paths with dancing bottles of alcohol. All the while, Alice performs songs off his album From The Inside, as well as many of his most well-known and best-loved hits.
This is the DVD debut of the extremely rare film, taped on April 9, 1979, in San Diego, California, long sought after by fans. Only previous home video release was a quickly deleted and now very pricey VHS.
The DVD also contains a brand-new commentary track by Alice Cooper.

From The Inside

Nurse Rozetta
The Quiet Room
