HAPPY. Jack and Liz Cooper were so tired of constant rain in Corvallis, Ore., that they were ready to buy almost any property that was dry. They finally settled on an arid, dusty stretch in central Oregon that had been dubbed Sunriver by the enterprising developer. But the developer, John Gray, had a reputation in Oregon for making deserts bloom and rain forests shine. "It was a gamble to sink money into a development that hadn't really got started yet," says Jack Cooper. "But the master plan was fantastic...
...philosophy behind these notices: Besides ccapsules of the major rock concerts, these listings will also alert you to lesser known, more talented rock and sometimes jazz performers who rarely get the attention they deserve. Honest-to-goodness folkies and bluegrass players have more musical talent than all of Alice Cooper's cobras laid end to end.

...match with King and, if possible, to get King's goat. He recently appeared in a pro-celebrity tournament at Forest Hills, N.Y., playing in granny rags. He even has gone so far as to call King a "loudmouth," which is rather like Linda Lovelace calling Alice Cooper an exhibitionist. Riggs promises to "psych her out of her socks."

The expanded room service is designed to cater to pimpled artists who prefer milkshakes with their chateaubriands. The crazy has become so commonplace that during an Electric Light Orchestra party recently, a zonked-out groupie was propped...
...characters with names like Sable Starr or Lori Lightning, and their accoutrements are kookier than their names: glitter makeup, an electric Afro pierced by a long-stemmed rose, extremely low-cut dungarees with two suspenders to cover the nipples. The gay and transvestite crowds attracted by performers like Alice Cooper and David Bowie have included one fan dressed as a ladybug and another as the Tin Man in The Wizard of Oz. Indeed, so bizarre is the show on the sidewalk that it produces another kind of damage problem: distracted motorists driving past the hotel have an average...
