Marilyn Manson Speaks On Reunion WIth Twiggy

Marilyn Manson spoke to RollingStone.com about his reunion with longtime collaborator guitarist Twiggy Ramirez for Manson's Eat Me, Drink Me tour.

Though the two had already re-connected during a chance meeting on the streets of Los Angeles, it was Manson witnessing another reunion that inspired him to invite Twiggy back. "The turning point for me was when I went to see LED ZEPPELIN's reunion show, and I saw Jimmy Page and Robert Plant look at each other for a moment, and they probably said, 'Holy shit, we wrote 'Stairway To Heaven'.' I wanted that look again," Manson explains. "I want to look at Twiggy and go 'Holy shit, we wrote 'The Beautiful People'.' I called him and I said 'Let's go do this.'" Plus, the duo had some unfinished business. "We started music together because we wanted to bring about the apocalypse, and we realized we didn't finish," Manson says. "The world could suffer much more if we were together again, and we really wanted to bring back the suffering."

John5 was the best thig that happened for Manson but I would be disappointed if JB left Rob Zombie because I just saw Rob Zombie recently and John5 was the best thing that happened to Rob also.

God bless, i must be super tired because i could have swore manson compared "the beautiful people" to "stairway to heaven". I do believe this qualifies as metal blasphemy.

I think Marilyn Manson is very talented. But the new eat me drink me album with tim skold wasnt as good as his previous work is. I'm glad Twiggy is back because him and Marilyn Manson make a good team. They did a good job on the beautiful people. They can do it again. I'v heard Jhon5 play and hes got talent but i didnt know that he did so much for the band. Last I heard Manson kicked Jhon5 out of the band aggresively.
