Manson Statement

• MARILYN MANSON has issued the following statement in response to the announcement by US President Bush that the country was “at war” with terrorists: “We all knew this day would come. My best wishes go out to those families who lost their loved ones. I also have friends in NY and of course here in LA that I am still concerned about. The only thing we can do now is to stick together. If it takes something this terrible to unite us, so be it. America hasn't always stood by me, but I will surely stand by America. Let's never forget how lucky we are to have so much freedom.”

• In other news, MARILYN MANSON’s October 8th concert at downtown Los Angeles’ Grand Olympic Auditorium, where MANSON will be giving a special end-of-tour performance celebrating his successful tour with this summer’s Ozzfest (and which will be filmed for release on an upcoming DVD), is now completely sold out.
