Marilyn Manson and Butcher Babies at The Rave/Eagles Ballroom
Marilyn Manson is a creep, and that’s why his fans love him. Whether he’s donning a top hat and black eyeliner, pimping some Gucci shades, or prancing around like a sexy Hitler, the shock-rocker never lets viewers forget that he’s a showman first and a musician second. Still, it’s hard to remember a time when Manson was actually shocking. Maybe that’s because he hasn’t toured the U.S. since 2009, leaving the job of outraging the easily outraged in the capable hands (and middle fingers) of artists like Lady Gaga, Nicki Minaj, and M.I.A. All of that is set to change, however, as Manson and company tour behind 2012’s Born Villain. Though the album is vintage Manson through and through, it does benefit from a stripped-down mentality that helped it debut at #10 on the Billboard 200.
