Well, after a 10 hour car ride through the mountains and the world's largest cow pasture, we arrived in Nashville. After finding a place to stay (which had the "world famous" gutiar shaped swimming pool inside) we found our way to the venue. After walking around for a while i ran into the Fuck Jesse Helms guy from the other NC shows(and he was nice enough to let us jump to the front of the line with him). After a while the doors opened and we were felt up by the security guards and then let in.
While we were waiting for manson to start a few people around me fell asleep, and not wanting to be left out I followed suit. Of course this was during Drill's set(as you can tell, i didn't like them that much). Then finally, after 15 hours of driving and waiting, the lights dimmed for Manson. The show was simply the best i've ever seen and heard. the sound was perfect, they played the complete show(including an unbeleivable stage show for Man that you Fear), and Manson seemed more in control of his temper. Back during the first leg of the ACS tour he seemed a little outta control at times(just ask Ginger), but at this show he was in complete control, and he knew it. This is the first time outta 6 shows that Manson has not completly trashed the stage, actually, he didn't even knock over anything or attack any band members. Hopefully this show was not a fluke. Hopefully when they come back to the east coast Manson will still be in control of his temper, because if he can watch out, for that was the only thing that was holding this band back from ruling the world(well, maybe not ruling the world, but you get my point).
Oh yeah, and my appologies to all the spooks who were at the show. sorry i never found you all, i looked, honestly i did, but unfortunatly i didn't really know what i was looking for. oh well, i catch up with you at the next show.
