This was an absolutely fabulous show. But the crowd sucked...I'll get to that in a minute.

Anthony and I met up with Jester and his friend. We got right up front on the barrier--Twiggy side. (NO CUBE--YIPPIE)

NY Loose played a really great set. Although, it seemed shorter than the last time. *shrugs* Sean Yseult was there and played guitar with them for a song (i don't know the name of it tho.) It turns out that she's Danny's girlfriend! Bridget spit on me!! (sara, I'm joining you in not liking bridget for spitting on me...this is your fault!! You passed your curses to me! I just know it)

All during NY Looses set the crowd was more rambunctious than normal. Much more shoving and clawing at others. It got even worse during intermission. There was this real annoying fuck in a green shirt that kept grabbing me and Jester's friend (I forgot her name...please forgive me) He was just a regular pain in the ass. Well, during the intermission Jester's friend wanted to get out of the barrier area. The bouncers were trying to get her out and all the while, the crowd was shoving right into her, so she was basically getting caught. (IMHO, I think the bouncers were also partly at fault cuz they were pulling her in all different directions as well) Jester decided to get out too, so he could be with his friend (very cool of him I thought). But as the bouncers were pulling him out...Manson came on. Major crowd surge forward. I think Jesters foot got caught between some kids legs as well. He'll be able to tell more about his experiences tho.

Anthony and I decided to stay up front (even if we wanted to get out, it was next to impossible...it was way too tight.) The damn bouncer kept asking me if I wanted to get out every 5 minutes. I guess I looked as sick as I felt. Finally I got the bouncer to leave me alone.

Manson's set was terrific!!! Sorry sara, madonna was in the pants again. Zim Zum was wearing a leather shorts, black thigh high tights, and his tye dye type shirt. He looked real good!! :) Twiggy was in his normal beige dress and the Rev was in his normal attire. I know they opened with Angel With Scabbed Wings, and closed with Man That You Fear,and some of the songs inbetween, but if you want them in order, I can't do it. but after that I lose it (I suck at remembering set lists--sorry) Their set also seemed shorter, but that might just be me. They played extrememly well. And there was a little bit of the old playfulness between Manson and Twiggy. Just a little, but it was there, nonetheless! :) Twiggy was most energetic, and Zim seemed really loose. Quite into it. The sound was terrific. They were just great, but the crowd...ARGH.

And I wanted to kill the kid next to me, cuz he kept screaming, and I quote *Twiggy, I want to suck you off!!!* constantly. How annoying! They had the podium and full backdrops. I still love the blowing kisses to the crowd thing...too funny. It seems like the area I was in was target for the evening cuz not only did bridget spit on me, Manson decided to pour an entire bottle of wine on myself, Anthony, and some ppl next to us. (cheap burgandy makes you itchy I've found) Mr. Manson then dropped the bottle in the space between the stage and barrier. I honestly thought he was gonna throw the thing into the crowd. Paranoia acting up I guess.

They all wore those damn helmets again...I hate them...they remind me of farberware mixing bowls still.

The Rev. said the normal *cater to the MTV crowd* thing after Sweet Dreams again...and later in the set, he asked if ppl were going to the Halloween show, cuz he's heard that alot of ppl are very concerned about this particular show. But he didn't elaborate on any aspect of it. I'm sure we all know what the *concern* is about here on the list tho.

They did the 2 encores...in the first encore, Mr. Manson said, *I was told they were worried you were gonna break the barrier...it's still standing* More paranoia. All the ppl around us were like *let's break it*

After the show, I was still so sick and also very tired from having next to no sleep over the weekend, that I wasn't even concerned with finding out about aftershows or anything of that nature. I was just content to have seen a really good performance that night.

Roseland Tomorrow!! Yippie!!!
