In January 2019, Good Records partnered with Rolling Stone to announce that a Live From The Astroturf concert movie would premiere at the Phoenix Film Festival between 04th-14th April 2019.  A trailer for the premiere was also produced and uploaded to the official Live From The Astroturf website.

Good Records Promotional Text:

To unleash the movie of the historic event, we’re going back to where it all started. Phoenix, Arizona, birthplace of the original Alice Cooper group, will be the first city you’ll be able to witness this concert film/documentary. There will be multiple screenings during the Phoenix Film Festival, which takes place from April 4th through the 14th at the Harkins Theatres Scottsdale 101. Special guests will be in attendance.

Eagle-eyed fans were already aware that a film was on its way, as a fairly discrete advert for it was included on the double-sided poster that came free with the 12" vinyl release that was released in November 2018.

The world premiere of the Live From The Astroturf movie took place at the Phoenix Film Festival on Friday 05th April.  Those lucky enough to attend were treated to a stellar red carpet audience including Director Steven Gaddis, mastermind and Executive Producer Chris Penn, Michael Bruce, Dennis Dunaway, Alice Cooper and Neal Smith.  All attendees received a commemorative ticket and press-on 'Live From The Astroturf' tattoo modelled on the classic School's Out dagger-through-heart design.  

Attending in memory of Glen Buxton was his sister Janice and brother Ken. A lovely additional touch was a seat dedicated to Glen, which was flanked by a shirt of the Blonde Bomber himself (see image below).

Alice Cooper superfan Paul Brenton also attended and organised an Earwigs / Spiders tour at the Group's original home.  This included a trip to Cortex High School, the Alice Cooper exhibit at the Phoenix Musical Instrument Museum and the former homes of Glen Buxton and Dennis Dunaway.  The tour was partly attended by Dennis and Cindy Dunaway themselves and Monica Lauer and will have been a priceless experience!

A great highlights video of the tour by Shock Opera can be seen here. Shock Opera also posted this video of a post-premiere 'Questions and Answers' session featuring the key figures behind the motion figure.
