This is the Tour where I discovered who MM was. I didn't even know who the bands were (Clutch opened) and just happened to flip a coin on if I was going out or staying home to play Doom or something like that.
@@JennRighter omg, you seem like an awesome b. My gf at the time went to his mechanical animals tour only because it was cool thing to do. i went and. saw dead to the world in 96, but this was in Oklahoma. His concert was protested by the Christian s there. was huge fan then and now.

The Smells like Children tour was probably the best shows I've ever seen. . . . . . and ive gone to more shows than I can count.......The Anti Christ Superstar tour dates were amazing as well in their own way.....as thats when the production got bigger, there was people marching against him at the shows, crazy Christian people, blah blah blah...plus there nothing like seeing Anti Christ Superstar live this tour....NOTHING.......but The intensity, the emotion and the connection between him and the crowd for this tour was just unlike anything ive experienced.....These shows were all small club shows.....so you felt like you knew a secret that most people din't yet.....and there was this camaraderie in that.... Going to a show back then was like going to join the resistance....idk how else to explain it....The shows were brutal but not violence for the sake of violence but in intensity between the band and the crowd....We all knew that we were witnessing something huge in the making and every song was just mind blowing and....idk.....Supernatural.....the air felt electrified and even back then he was so larger than life but at the same time there with us.........I miss these shows more than anything and would do almost anything to go back and experience one of these shows again........
I agree. I was lucky enough to be there for this tour and Antichrist, and there truly was nothing else like it. It was an amazing time to be a fan, I'll never forget it. Two of the best shows I've ever seen, and I've been to tons of concerts.
May have been, but that doesn't support what happened to the band. I loved them, saw them 25 times between 94 and 96, when I was very young. What they were then and every inception since is very different because the band concept and all of the original songs were conceived by Scott, aka Daisy, may he rest in peace. The band idea, the names of everyone, the lyrics and the music were all written by and devised by Scott at this time. I think claiming they were "together as one" is sadly contrary to what happened. Scott wrote a great deal of the Antichrist Superstar songs, and recorded quite a few of them. Then was kicked out of the band with no notice. He sued, and he won, not just rights to all of the songs he wrote, but the very concept of the band, that was his brainchild. He received royalties until he died of cancer. He was the reason what this video is existed and he was the reason I loved this band. Without him, they were NOTHING like their original form, which makes sense. You throw out the guy that conceived the very idea of your band and wrote all of the songs, kind of hard to reclaim that once you kick him out.
@@JennRightersmall correction. The music to the early songs was written by Scott, however, Manson himself had always been the primary lyric writer
3rd favorite era....1. ACSS, 2. MA, 3. POAAF/SLC, 4. Holywood, 5. Going to cheat on the last one and go with LestWeForget because he was playing 20+song setlist (during encore, "do you guys want 1 more, ok I'll give you 4")
I saw him around then. First of about 10 times! It was SO RAW. He literally SCARED ME for this and Antichrist Superstar tour lol. Mechanical Animals not so SCARY, but the biggest SPECTACLE of a show! Holywood tour kinda combined all that. Then it was downhill but STILL my favorite! Too bad we didn't get to see a We Are Chaos tour. Done right it could've been AMAZING. It could MAYBE still happen, fingers crossed*
@No One When I saw him in 95 Sweet Dreams was JUST getting started and he had rough versions of a couple songs that would be on ACS. Irresponsible Hate Anthem & Angel With The Scabbbed Wings. Oh and Smells Like Children, which became Kinderfeld but was fast and heavier. Very cool to see his progression in these early shows.
When he dressed disheveled and had long hair and was skin and bones, he was at his best. That was before the Dione Warwick sunglasses and diva posturing he does now.
Tt is not diva posturing. It is simply other era of his. A true artist can't stay the same. He knows better what to do, how to be, when to be. If you respect him, then don't insult him.
@@zamfircosmin4336 I don't care about him getting old, getting overweight, or even the stupid look he goes for now (though Jesus Christ, get rid of that dumbass grill). The music just doesn't connect anymore. He's always aimed for the youth. Makes sense on a business level. Problem is, I've been listening to him (and going to see him) since the nineties, so his target audience is now kids my daughter's age. The music he's slipped into is shallow and meaningless, all image. By my daughter's own admission. He's emulating that, which for me, a fan of a quarter century, is a slip of everything he used to stand for.
@@innapinch7112 if you listen hes doing a parody of all that we hate he isnt being that. Like one of his biggest statments is the serial killers get prettier every year. Also he walks around with women wearing costumes that looks like a dead fetus is hanging out of her crotch. Also im with you ive listened to manson since early nintees too but its not the same world if he wants to stay relivant hes got to play into the modern era of discust. The things we grew up with as being very terrfying kids now dont even understand. Thats why he is now mocking hollywood. Because thats the new scene all the youths see they know nothing about religion and serial killers. Thats also why he dropped the name he is just MM now because it cannot have a impact on people who do not know the poeple that the names back stories refrance. Its just another evolution. Personally i love the new material as well but i see what his ideas are behind all of it. But of his whole catalog the old rare spooky kids is still most impactful to me because thats more like the way the world was during our childhoods. Anyway give his last 6 albums a chance they are alot deeper that alot give them credit for being.
THANK YOU to whoever recorded this back in 95. It's probably the best show I've ever seen, 95 was their best era for sure. I miss Daisy, Twiggy, and Pogo. It will never be the same...
I saw them on this tour when they stopped in OKC. It was my 2nd time seeing Manson. I was in 10th grade. Halfway through Get your Gunn he smashed a beer bottle on his stomach (Crazy!) and then used the sharp edges of the piece in his hand to cut his stomach and arms up. Blood was everywhere and he looked possessed. It was one of the most amazing performances I've ever seen. He had everyone in that venue under a spell, it was so intense and insane. I remember when I got home from the show I just sat there parked outside my house processing what I'd just seen. I'll never forget it. Age has set in and Manson is doing his own thing now and thats fine, but I really miss this era. It felt like the last true moment of music that actually penetrated the culture. FFS, this guy was blamed for Columbine! Cities truly feared this band back then, was unreal.
@@TimothyRoundtree Yep! That's the place! Clutch opened and one other band.. Pavement? I can't remember. I moved to the west coast around 1999.. Ive heard okc is much different now, including Bricktown where most death metal bands usually played (at the gates, napalm death, cannibal corpse, etc).. heard they built some manmade river or something there.. can't even imagine! That area used to be a great place to get stabbed in an alleyway
I just listened to this whole show while I did chores around the house and honestly.. that was awesome. They played very well live 1995-1997 will always be my favorite era. Bizarre Fest 1997 was the performance that made them world class though. You can find it on RU-vid.
Haha that's one of the worst performances of that era of the band but everyone knows about it. I had it on cd, bought it as a kid running bank errands for my grandmother and her friends. Those were the days
Videos for his early work is sparse and usually low quality. It is really nice to see and hear it more clearly. The people who upload these gems are the only way to experience his older stuff (that I found, so far). I am appreciate their efforts. I'm so glad I had the opportunity to waste my time explaining a random thanks. Do you have a life?
This is an incredible recording, especially in comparison to the other ones from this era! It’s the closest I’ll ever get to experiencing an old-school Manson show...that’s what I get for being born in 2001 😞
I feel like manson changes a lot and this manson is different from him in mechanical same as he is now. I understand his voice is not as good but I love it still.
I wish I was a teen in the 90s. I was a child and Manson scared the fuck out of me. Now as a 32 year old I can say there’s nothing scary about him. His music is gold. Until now I’m digging deep into his music. His new album is amazing btw but holy shit I love his old stuff
The stuff in the 90's was way different, it had a very different feel to it, I was in highschool and 1 day half of everyone changed, it was very empowering
Have u been living under a rock? He has naked mannequin boys with their penises out in there, butt up encourage self-mutilation torture, and if you don’t see that that’s actually going on all over the world with our children as currency then you really need to get a reality check and know that this is horrible, and it was a start of a very, very, very bad training with teenagers
Was a teen in the 90’s. There was better stuff than him. Ministry did the angry hardcore metal/industrial way better than and way before this guy. There were others too. Never cared for Manson. Always thought he was a hack.
Manson was the god of the stage back in the 90's. I saw him live more times then I can count and dude gave 110% every fucking show through the holy wood era really.
Most definitely. I woulda loved to have seen some of his really early shows like this live. Great performer. I also think if Berkowitz stayed in the band it would've still sounded like Metal instead of what it eventually turned out to be. Nothing wrong with what the band evolved into, I just thing Daisy added a certain element that was the "Original" MM band
This is the Marilyn Manson (the Group:daisy berkovitz, twiggy pogo etc...), that I really loved. They were great! And a super tight band as you can hear.
Pretty neat finding this video! We got to the Troc late on this night and missed like half of Marylin Manson's set. Even though we missed a lot of the show - It was Death Guild night (if I remember correctly) so we still danced and loved our dead stiff squirrels til 5am! Kinda cool seeing what we missed of this show 22 years ago lol. Good times!
I have an old VHS somewhere with a set from the headline tour they did with SLL on drums still. It was good, I think the months of touring with NIN had made him a bit tighter. But on that same VHS there’s also a set of MM when they opened for Danzig, Ginger Fish’s first tour. The difference is dramatic, GF is just a way better drummer.
@@kevanbaconofficial Sara definitely improved a lot before his firing. I think he had a distinctive and odd style which worked with their earlier music. Ginger was definitely a huge step up though. Killer drummer. Just feel Sara got treated like shit for no real reason, basically just blamed on his playing. Which again, was nowhere near bad,
I saw them on this tour in San Diego, so it was probably only a few days before/after this show. I've been searching for a video of that show, but this is pretty close, so that's cool. At the show I was at, he came out on stage on stilts for the first song. It was an incredible show.
When the band first started getting attention from the media they were actually scaring people. It was crazy. Who thought some make up and anti-religious lyrics could be scary? I guess a lot of stupid America.
America was different back then. The culture was very superstitious religious, a time before the internet. This was America coming out of the Satanism hysteria of the late 80's. It was a strange and beautiful time that we will never see again. A time when you could actually horrify people with your band.
interesting to think about how all of them except Scott were performing Lunchbox in front of crowds of 20,000 during the rock is dead tour less than 4 years later
Comment ne pas regretter ce Manson ..qui donne tout ,ose tout ,au sommet de sa beauté dérangeante ,provocatrice ,de son talent ,unique et inoubliable il est immortalisé pour toujours dans mon cœur grâce à ces vidéos qui me le rappelle ,phénomène hypnotisant et addictif!,c’est un véritable joyau ..ses mimiques ,grimaces ,sa voix ,sa musique ,son gestuel ,son style vestimentaire ..,presque nu !ses provocations ..j’aime tout en lui .J’ai aimé ,j’aime et j’aimerai tous les «Marylin Manson ..»celui d’aujourd’hui même si différent ..et si Marylin disparaît peu à peu ..je l’adore encore .. j’attends avec tant d’impatience son album de 2023 ,après« Chaos ,»une pure merveille ,ce sera encore un pur bonheur … !!Merci d’exister MM🖤🖤🖤
lol, yeah it wasn’t easy.... but in that time, the internet was just starting. AOL online was the Only thing out there.....and most people were literally paying by the minute just to use it.. So a vhs record was like gold.... you would have to go to the city and find record stores that may have had one..... or buy a copy for like 50$....
Saw Manson open for NIN in ‘94 from the front row …. Easily the best show of my life and I’ve seen hundreds. Manson could look right into your soul and it was terrifying and wonderful at the same time.
I saw that 94 downward spiral tour 2 times rite at the beginning and at the end both times was New Orleans the 1st was a small venue n canal st call State Palace Theater. Then next was a Arena show way bigger than SPT where they taped this whole event that you’re watching including the hurt video that we saw back in the day at UNO Lakefront Arena New Orleans Louisiana and this one had opening was Jim rose freck show & pow will ear itself and then this the Sidney was strong for both gigs but this one at UNO was one of the greatest Performances Ever as in the top 10 of all times. If you was there then you understand and I’ve seen everyone in almost every state Cali,to NYC, La, to Chi-Town and a few overseas Woodstock lollapalooza tours from 92-96 VooDoo fest from 2000 -2021 etc.
I saw them with NIN and the Jim Rose Circus at the Spectrum in Philly '95 and got backstage to meet everyone. The guys from the circus were all amazing
@@user-om1ur6gq2u Why is that hard to believe? I went to the Troc to see shows sometimes 2 or 3 times a week in '95 '96. Probably a hundred at one venue
Best era hands-down. Saw this tour at the Granada in Lawrence Ks. I absolutely LOVE Daisy as the guitarist for this band. He was inventive, knew where to leave space, and was GREATLY responsible for giving MM their "Cooper on roids"-sound and influence. Original drummer was great too.
I saw them play right around this time in 1995 at a small college club. It was just a few weeks before the Smells Like Children EP was released. Or maybe a few weeks after... it's been a minute lol. Great show, and I got to see it for free because I was working for my college radio station at the time.
0:00 The Hands of Small Children (Intro) 1:39 Wrapped in Plastic 6:21 Snake Eyes And Sissies 10:19 Get Your Gunn 13:58 Dogma 17:20 Cyclops 20:28 Cake And Sodomy 24:30 Down In The Park 28:38 Dope Hat 33:15 My Monkey 37:42 Smells Like Children 42:00 Organ Grinder 46:07 Lunchbox 51:21 Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This) 55:54 Misery Machine
When I saw this tour in Nov of 95 at the Metro in Chicago, instead of smells like children they played an early version of irresponsible hate anthem. Otherwise exactly the same show..
