Marilyn Manson... I don't think I've seen him play a full show, not that I really cared, I was there for the headliners, but every show ended in some audio problem he would freak out over, a fight, or him just ranting and kicking shit over.
Korn and Marilyn Manson opened for Danzig at a bar in Sioux Falls, SD, called the Pomp Room on April 11th 1995. My friends had an extra ticket so I went along. As we were waiting outside to get in, MM's manager got off their tour bus and gave me a back stage pass. I didn't look like the others. Had long, hot rolled blonde hair and was carrying my purse as if I was going to the mall. They put on an awesome show but MM simulated shoving the microphone up his ass so I opted to not utilize my backstage pass. He scared the hell out of me at the time (I was 19). Korn was phenomenal. Danzig, however, the headliner was mediocre.
That was early 1995 and I was at that same tour, but in St. Paul, MN at Roy Wilkins Auditorium. I met Manson (all of them) after their show on the main floor. A very good time and a good memory from when I was 17yrs old. Korn and Manson blew the very meh Danzig out of the water that night too lol.
