According to The Long Hard Road Out of Hell, Manson claims the following about this concert:

"Tonight's show was a disaster, a releif, a fiasco, a Mexican standoff and a drug-crazed freak-out. Twiggy slashed his hand open on the very last song of this very last show while smashing his bass. The whole thing was every bit of rock and roll and every bit of everything we represented. I feel like we're grown in the past year, and I'm glad that it's over. I can see already that America, Nothing Records, our friends and the media have perceived this to be the peak of our career. Unfortunately for them it's jsut the beginning". (Page 269).

During the performance of The Reflecting God, Marilyn Manson made a comment about México's celebration of the independence day, which is celebrated on september 16th. Mex'fiend ;)
