Mansons just going through the motions...

December 27, 2007 10:08am CST
I went to see Manson/Slayer a few months ago, and although it was still one of the best shows I've been to, I feel that Manson wasn't into it...that he was just going through the motions. His face only held an expression when a camera was in front of him. Understandable, I mean, he HAS been doing it for years, and I imagine his passion has probably dwindled... but still... anyone else notice this, too?

I saw him last night and definitly felt he was only going through the actions. I'm sure his passion has dwindled but if so... Stop touring!! It's not fair to the audience. I agree what I saw last night was still a great show but not up to par with what I expected from him.

I was gonna buy tickets to see him on the second, he's playing in a relatively small venue in ohio, and I was hoping that, being a small venue, it would be a more...personal experience, I guess, but my paycheck was over a week late...and in that week, the show sold out...d@mn. Anyway, yeah, that's how I feel. I went to see type0 negative sometime last year and their show was ridiculous...they played the chickendance song for 30 minutes preshow, and it kept getting louder and faster until it was so loud i couldn't think...I mean, at first it was funny, but it got old (and painful). Then...they kept messing the songs up (not that I noticed) and restarting the songs, they didnt play any of their hits, they played a lot of covers (horrible covers) and they walked off stage a lot due to the audience not following the signs instructions to "clap" "laugh" "boo" etc. I sent em a myspace comment (not that they care) telling them that they should stop touring because it's not fair to their fans that actually love and support them and payed to see them play. I would've rather sat at home than gone to THAT show...bleh.

I have to wait to till he goes on tour again because las time the closet he came was NC which is about 3+ hours away. So the last time I actually saw him was @ Ozzfest in 2003.
