Valentine's Day has long been a significant day for Marilyn Manson for many reasons, but this year it so happened that Marilyn Manson and his wife Lindsay celebrated Valentine's Day in Brno, Czech Republic while on his European tour.
Earlier in the day, both Manson and Lindsay posted a series of photos for Valentine's Day. The photos of Manson were photographed by Lindsay, and one was captioned "They’d remember this as Valentine’s Day" (which Lindsay captioned as "Always") while the other said "Meet Me In Purgatory" (which Lindsay captioned as "within the fog and trees").

Later that night, as an introduction to his performance of "Meet Me In Purgatory", Manson made a sweet Valentine dedication to his beloved wife who stuck by him through the best of times and the worst of times. He said the following:
My dearly devoted...
How many of you..., raise your hands if you're in love...
How about just for Valentine's Day...
I have someone who stuck by me through the worst, the best - I will be with them forever.
This is Meet Me In Purgatory.
How many of you..., raise your hands if you're in love...
How about just for Valentine's Day...
I have someone who stuck by me through the worst, the best - I will be with them forever.
This is Meet Me In Purgatory.
This beautiful introduction to the song also confirms for us who Manson had in mind when writing "Meet Me In Purgatory".
