ok, i guess i will write a full review on the RED BANK SHOW
if this is long, forgive me...Ok, my friend ERIK and I went
down to RED BANK, it took about 45 minutes, we got there
at 4:00 PM, the show starts at 7:30...we got dropped off in
front of the COUNT BASIE THEATRE, and we walked around,
spotting some people sitting in the parking lot...they were
MM fans too, so we sat down there, and we found out that
the 2 buses behind us were for MANSON, and DANZIG...we also
saw the guys from KORN sitting on someone's front lawn..
So, soon we saw DAISY coming from the theater and going into
the bus, we didn't bother him, but when he came back out
a few mins. later, we talked to him, and got a picture and
autographs...he was cool, sorta shy. Then we spotted a guy
who had the appearance of (from what i've heard on this list)
GINGER FISH...so we went up to him and asked him, and sure
enough he was, ERIK got his autograph, and we got a picture.
we sat around for a while, then MR MANSON came out of the bus,
and we asked him a few questions, got his signature, and of
course, he said "no pictures before the show". oh well,
so by then, we had gotten thirsty, and decided to go get
something to drink, so we were walking the streets of lovely
RED BANK NJ..Then we realized MR MANSON was on the opposite
side of the street with one of the roadies...We went into
a liquor store and got a drink [not liquor :)]..and when
we got back out we went into the comic book store that was
nearby and guess who we find, MR MANSON! well, we didn't
want to bother him again,so we just looked around...When we
got out of there, we continued down the street and saw DAISY
talking to a bunch of girls, and we said HI to him again.
And then across the street we saw TWIGGY coming toward
MR MANSON and the roadie dude, we were gonna go say HI to
TWIGGY but b4 we could go, those 3 went into a MEXICAN
RESTAURANT to eat dinner, i guess...So, we wandered back
to the parking lot, and on the way, we ran into GINGER
again, we talked to him, he was so KEWL...i asked him
where he got his name from and he said that MR MANSON gave
him the name...i didn't know where he got FISH from,
so GINGER told me it was from ALBERT FISH, the mass murderer.
Anyway, talking about GINGER, he was so active, we saw him
everywhere! Another time we saw GINGER and he was crossing
the street, the sign said DO NOT WALK, so ERIK says "THAT SAYS
DO NOT CROSS!!", so GINGER stops in the middle of street, and
starts faking kicking the car right in front of him and
throwing food at it...it was pretty funny.So we just sat down
for a while since we had so much time, and one time we came out
of a store and saw TWIGGY by himself about 40 feet in front of
us, and since we hadn't met him yet, we ran up to him...We asked
him to get in a picture, and he asked if we wanted 2, one with
each of us. We also got his autograph. So, we went back to the
parking lot, and by then there were about 20 or 30 people there.
The guitarist from KORN was out playing his guitar with a tiny
amp around his belt..TWIGGY and the lead singer of KORN started
throwing coins at his feet, and he goes "YES, MONEY" and put
all of it in his pocket. We also saw GLEN DANZIG and he was so
short, i don't know what they do, cuz when i see him on TV i
think he's huge! Now for the show...we went in and watched KORN,
i thought they were OK, i liked alot of the rhythms they played..
Then Manson came on, they started with CAKE AND SODOMY and went
through 8 other songs, "LUNCHBOX", "MY MONKEY", "SWEET DREAMS",
"ORGAN GRINDER", "DOPE HAT", "SNAKE EYES AND SISSIES", "CYCLOPS"
"DOGMA", [i don't remember the order], and they ended with
"MISERY MACHINE". they played great, and at the end mr manson
totally knocked over GINGER's drumset. There's definitely alot
more to tell about, but i don't feel like writing a book!!! :)
