Stage Antics
When being introduced, Manson was carried onstage on a Roman-like chariot by two naked girls that bore Roman helmets. Heavy use of fireworks was still used and Manson's outfit resembled the one seen in the music video for "Disposable Teens".
During performances of "The Love Song," Manson would wear a papal outfit like the one worn in the "Disposable Teens" video. During performances of "Valentine's Day," Manson would perform behind a table with two severed heads, bearing his own likeness, and grapes, often wearing the same outfit used during "The Love Song".
During some shows, there would be two dancers onstage. The podium that was used in previous tours during performances of "Antichrist Superstar" also returned, sporting a new design of a crucifix made of guns, instead of the "shock" symbol used previously. During the show in Moscow, two Russian-like guards would stand next to each side of the podium as Manson sang "The Love Song".
In performances of "Cruci-Fiction in Space", Manson would rise above the stage on a platform, much like in the "Disposable Teens" video. Images would often be displayed in the stage backdrop, including letters parodying the design of the Hollywood Hills sign with "Holy Wood" written instead, the cover for the "Disposable Teens" single, and a partially burned American flag.

Trivia
