Theatricality
For this tour, Manson would come onstage swinging a censer (that some mistook for a chandelaire), as in the ritual church ceremonies. Projection backdrops for the tour included a burning American flag and achurch backdrop, reminicint of visuals used during the Dead to the World tour, and other themed backdrops that represented the era of the song being performed. At a few shows, robots were utilised during performances of "Tourniquet" and/or "(s)AINT".
Attire
The costumes for the Against All Gods tour (all designed by Vivienne Westwood) went through two discernable phases. Initially, Manson took to the stage wearing a black jacket with pink trimming and wore a black gothic vest with a long, open black skirt. During "The Dope Show," he donned a black and white stripped suit jacket and wore a tophat for "mOBSCENE". At some shows, the black vest also had a silver strip running down it. When the tour moved to Europe, the band sported a Victorian dress style. Though the skirt remained similar, Manson’s vest then sported blue-velvet frills, and his entry jacket had a Black Plague theme (as did the hat worn during "The Nobodies" that was meant to look like a plague doctor's), with real chicken bones sown on in the shape of a Sergant’s shoulder decoration and a bagful of onions. During "mOBSCENE," Manson donned a military jacket and peak cap.
