THIS IS COOL. MARILYN MANSON TOURING WITH HIS OBVIOUS INSPIRATION. I LIKE THE STYLIZED AC LOGO, WHICH RESEMBLES AN ANARCHY SYMBOL. SHOCK THERAPY IS A CLEVER NAME FOR THE TOUR. I THINK MANSON SHOULD BE THE OPENER FOR COOPER.

IT IS INTERESTING TO NOTE THE TOUR STARTS IN SALT LAKE CITY, THE MORMON MECCA. WILL THE "MASTERS OF MADNESS" HAVE TROUBLE LURING PEOPLE TO THE SHOW, OR WILL THE REPRESSED AND REBELLIOUS FLOCK THERE?

There's a strong underground counter-culture in Salt Lake that supports stuff like this (for every 10 painted blonds who recently underwent liposuction you'll see a dude with a purple mohawk), not to mention plenty of jack Mormons who don't particularly care if the music is LDS approved or not.

Manson lost all his passion, he just goes through the motions and is terrible live, his 2001 concert was amazing, last 2 shows i saw were brutal, not the good brutal either

caveman is correct. He promised his fans with this touring cycle for Born Villian hed sorta "get it back together" for lack of a better term for his, singing, and live performance in general, but ive seen him 3 times thus far and he has not. I feel he is trying but hes just become and obvious coke addict judgeing off appearance. But hey i still love me some manson........haters gonna hate.

Maybe seeing his hero still doing it much older than manson is now will inspire manson to get his life back together so that he can be a good performer once again. I actually like the new album alot, "hey cruel world" is probably in my top 5 manson songs of all time

yeah, manson is great when it comes to putting out awesome albums, but when it comes to live shows, he is just losing it more and more. i saw him last may though and he wasn't too bad.
