The concert was completely sold out. 3 Colours Red warmed up, they were quite terrible and played an embarrassing version of Anarchy In The UK, Manson actually mentioned that later on in the concert, he said something like "I heard some shitty band play some shitty song called Anarchy In The UK". Well on to Marilyn Manson, the playlist was pretty much the same as on the other shows, except they didn´t play Irresponsible Hate Anthem, Manson smashed the drums after The Beautiful People. The sound was perfect and they didnt seem to have any technical problems, though during Rock ´n´ Roll Nigger Twiggy had some problems with his guitar and Manson left the stage for about 5 mins while the rest of the band played on. Besides that everything was just perfect...the stilts during Mechanical Animals....the snow during Speed Of Pain....the flashing DRUGS sign and 2 black back-up singers during I Don´t Like The Drugs.....and the Antichrist Superstar podium. Manson did the usual drug speach.....Jesus Christ invented hash, cocaine and LSD blah blah blah.......John5 did the thing with his head and ran around in circles most of the time. Twiggy, Ginger and Pogo were flawless. Well the show was fantastic......if only the horrible ringing in my ears right now would go away, i only just got back from the concert an hour ago.
