Sobriety as a Cosmic Ritual

In a recent podcast interview about narcissistic abuse, Evan Rachel Wood said that Marilyn Manson described in his autobiography how the Brian Warner part of him was dead and whatever he had become was now his true self. Her purpose was to show that Manson completely abandoned his humanity and truly came to embody a disassociated narcissistic monster. But is this what his autobiography actually said or even implied? No, of course not. He says something along those lines, but she completely twists it to make a point that fits her narrative rather than the actual facts.  What Manson actually describes in his autobiography is that he went through a personal apocalypse. He writes:  "When I first conceived of Antichrist Superstar , I set out to create an apocalypse. But I didn’t realize it was going to be a personal one.

MARILYN MANSON Announces Three Summer 2024 Headlining Shows


For those wanting to see Marilyn Manson headline his own concert this summer, some exciting news was announced today. During off-dates when Five Finger Death Punch will be supporting Metallica in stadium shows across America, Marilyn Manson announced on April 29th that he will be headlining three of his own shows, which are as follows:

Aug. 03 - Silver Spring, MD - The Fillmore (w/ Slaughter To Prevail)
Aug. 17 - Chicago, IL - Byline Bank Aragon Ballroom (w/ The Funeral Portrait)
Sep. 01 - Reno, NV - Grand Theater at Grand Sierra Resort and Casino

Presale starts Tuesday, April 30 at 10am local time with code: MM2024

With the announcement, Manson also shared a new photo shot by Perou.
 

Media sources who have announced these upcoming additional tour dates have continued to note that he is currently having legal issues, but so far it is Blabbermouth which stands out primarily for the photo they accompanied the announcement with, which basically makes Manson look depressed, despite the fact that he has provided new photos for the media to use, and which other sources did in fact use. Among them was Metal Sucks, a publication which was very hostile to Manson when he initially announced his tour over a month ago, but it seems that after responding to feedback with a poll and discovering that people really do want to see Manson live on tour again, they seem to have changed their tune, albeit reluctantly and with apparent existential conflict.
