Noel Fielding and the rocker plan to get together

The Mighty Boosh's Noel Fielding and Alice Cooper might be writing a musical together.

According to this month's issue of Uncut magazine, the duo have hit on the idea of writing together, and are planning an "acid rock gothic musical".

"I absolutely love Alice Cooper," Fielding is quoted as saying. "I wonder if he has ever considered writing an acid rock gothic musical. If we did one, would he co-star?"

The answer, it seems, is yes. "I love those guys!" Cooper said, talking about the comedy troupe.

"I'm in England a lot, so I'm very aware of The Mighty Boosh. I'd love to work with them."
