I apologize to New York because the police shut down our record signing, hopefully we can make up for it later. I hope the uncensored "The Dope Show" footage will satisfy your needs. I'm going to give you some sneak previews of important things next week that I think you'll appreciate. I truly love and appreciate you and your support, and FUCK all the senseless assholes who post here trying to annoy me. It doesn't work.

PLEASE EXCUSE MY ABSENCE

I wanted to give you time to digest Mechanical Animals, and I hope you are enjoying it.

I am watching and in a week you will see me here more regularly when I return to the States.

You know there was once a time i was them, but know i am me, and after finding this out i finally came upon the conclusion this is how it was meant to be. i come here today not to contact Brian (marilyn as you know) but to reach you his fans, but always remember brian and i will meet once again, on his way down and my way up....... just wait you shall see... 09/25/98 7:01:53 PM

I'm back and I will be here for you. Thanks from the 5 of us, for your words. In response to "scott". you were always scott and that's what you couldn't see. we all live in our minds. you are dragged down by your lack of imagination. we will never meet again. you will never meet these wonderful people again.

Some of you have looked deeper. keep looking there is much more. so many things, inconsequential things are distracting us from the sad truth.

this is the exit, this is the exit. sometimes you are Coma White.

some people, people who haven't experienced and would not know...sit and try to judge someone's work in a sentence. it doesn't make you stronger. you can't feel someone else's pain. who is better,what does this song rip off? I am a pop artist, I know how to make my statements in musical references, in images. but I am a dead star. I am pointing to you...don't miss what I am telling you. the numbness has worn off. humanity is the worse thing to feel.

I've always loved you...

09/28/98 2:48:00 PM

tonight I will post all the information regarding zim zum's termination. we can then clarify that everything that comes out of his mouth is a lie. look for these legal documents to please end this nonsense, so we can get on with moreimportant issues.

I'd like to know what songs from mechanical animals you would like to hear most on this tour?

And I have no current plans for children or marriage.

09/30/98 11:11:45 AM

first of all no other members of the band are currently on the bbs or chat. ignore these imposters (DRUGS,etc.) I do NOT post in any other form, even if I am away from my computer.

Despite the fact that I feel zim zum has lied about his termination, this isn't the place to spread rumours about him, or prosecute him for things you think he has done.

it doesn't surprise me though, that if you surround yourself in lies, eventually you will drown in them.

as for scott and your confusion, it seems people would just want to go on with their lives and realize no matter how hard they try to hang on they are not a part of me. I don't hate him. I just don't care. everyone has broken relationships, ex-girlfriends,etc. This is no different. talk about it somewhere else. it's wasting space.

finally, about ex-bandmates--I wish brad stewart the best with his band, the dollygaggers. despite our problems, he is still a brother to me.

Anton LaVey's final book "SATAN SPEAKS" will be released this month. I wrote the forward, and I'm sure you will enjoy this one.

does anyone think that I listen to your bullshit? would I be who I am if I listened to others opinions? I do what I feel is right. that's what we all should do. I don't expect anyone to follow me. We are together in this. Christianity is the least of my enemies. Self doubt can destroy you quicker than anything. Thanks to your support, I believe in what I do and I believe in you. Anybody who is "too cool" to like my band now because they like the limp orgycotica's of the world --that's fine. I'm not going to change what I believe, even if you think I have. We are stronger than ever, and this is a fucking revolution. So let's act that way.

11:53 pm 2/4/99 TO REAL FANS OF ANY KIND Article:

I'm very proud of your creativity. keep it up, because if I can be a star so can any of you.

Let me tell any disbelievers, I'm not ashamed to be a success at what I love to do. If anyone thinks I am more successful because I shed my so called "goth" image or sound, you're wrong. I will always have trouble getting to the mainstream. I congratulate and thank you guys for getting us this far.

I change because I like to be different than what's around me, when other bands change their eyes like I did 7 years ago (limp dick, psycornica, even my friend rob z.) or do goth covers of 80s songs (orgly) or every person I see has black hair --I just wanted something more interesting to me. I'm not saying I dislike any of those things (my hair is still black by the way), I just wanted something new. I'm inspired by things I liked as a kid and try to bring back true rock n roll. If it becomes a formula then fuck it. I do this because I enjoy it, my band enjoys it and you enjoy it.

Hole? you may ask yourself. what could be more interesting? phony videos.com? yeah, and I was on the wonder years. dismembered acss? evolved...haven't you?

I will be posting the numbers of radio stations in every city later this week. If we bombard them, we can help destroy their lame selection of music. I am looking for dedicated missionaries that are willing to waste their spare time doing this work. we are capable of making radio stations play a song that says DRUGS over and over.

anyone interested keep looking here I will compile a list of people in each city and I will guarantee back stage passes.

in the mean time you guys probably know your local request lines. hassle them for DRUGS

I will deliver you into the backstage promised land.

2/5/99 4:00 pm READ THIS AND SHARE IT Article:

How many of you are familiar with the pretentious few in aol message boards? STARK and his pals? Let me have a laugh. isn't it interesting that someone is inspired by you, admires you to the point that they share your ideals. Then one day they think they know more than you, or are "too cool". Or that these were their ideas to begin with. They forget why they are there in the first place. so they just complain about what was or how they have more integrity, blah, blah...ad nauseum.

I encourage or challenge anyone who thinks they can do what I do to just do it. Be my guest.

write an album. make a video. I'll buy it. Trust me, I love criticism. I'm a critic. I just pity and detest uncreative whiners, and armchair rock stars. Be something before you try to challenge someone else's dreams.

Those few "elitist" fans treat us real music fans and music makers just like the rest of the world we fight so hard to smash.

I'd waste my energy destroying manson bashers, manson traitors or every bullshit christian I see. But I go to bed knowing they will wake up everyday and have to live their shitty, miserable lives and THAT is the worst punishment of all.

so someone asked how should we handle assholes? remind them they're losers and ignore them. If that doesn't work, find out where they live and remind them in person.

I love you and the band thanks you for kicking ass. Let's conquer these shitty radio playlists and start our fucking revolution!

in my dream vultures chase me into my burning house. there, they pick out the brains of my family, dismember them-- devour I emerge from my home and I am burning, skin falling away like a snake as the structure crumbles into a black skeleton. I cannot fight off the vultures. a young man or woman emerges from the ashes. he/she doesn't save me, because he/she is holding my cracked and swollen heart in one hand and a piece of paper in the other.

i can read it. it discusses and compares in great detail the differences between me and the vultures. he wraps my heart in the paper and tosses it to the ground.

I hope everyone had time to read my posts last night. they are meant for you to learn something from.

the radio call-in system is beginning to work, so please continue requesting "I don't like the drugs..." I find it amusing to think normal people will be singing along to that and not get the irony. Lizard King and steve at angelmanson are in charge, so please help them find more missionaries. the names for passes are being filled in each city so talk to them soon.

another thing, if anyone wants to relay this particular statement to other newsgroups. 5 out of 6 Big Day outs were completely sold out and the one that wasn't had over 25,ooo fans. Just because one show went bad doesn't mean our headlining festival of Australia (we did choose our slot, because we were the headliners) was a failure. It was a huge success and I thank the fans who came to see us. We only stopped our show because a glass bottle cut my leg open and Pogo got a concussion, we weren't booed off. I wish we were. It's like the old days. That's rock for you.

This right here, you and I is the only thing that is real. Your support and dedication has made us survive this and we have returned to kick ass and take names.

I want to thank the old fans, the new ones and the unsure ones for all tuning in to our conference.

The heart of true magic is in the words, behind the words, believing that there really are no words.

Abracadabra translated literally means, "I will create as I speak." We are all that's left. Those that don't believe, don't believe themselves. Now is not the time to be afraid...be happy that there is a union, that anyone who wants IT can have IT.

knowing IT is all you need.

You are the best and most gifted fans, and I hope that each one of you gets the world's attention, you deserve it.

Again Thank You, MARILYN MANSON

August 16, 1999 Author: [omega symbol] Subject: this is the end, my only friends

Article:

thank you all, far and away for helping us live through such a tumultuous tour. We finished at Mount Fugi in Japan and it is quite a relief to be home. I have something special planned for the release of GOD IS IN THE TV, to reward those Los Angeles fans for their missed show. The video will contain all the behind the scenes I can offer, the things that the record company will censor will be available here! Coma White is at MTV, I don't know if they will play it because of the subject matter, but it will appear in it's entirety on GOD IS IN THE TV. Also set for release is Astonishing Panorama of the End Times, which states "VIOLENCE FOR THE PEOPLE, GIVE THE KIDS WHAT THEY NEED." I imagine it will be censored to say "milk and cookies for the kids" by the fascists. The live album is also finished and I hope to share that with you as well, it covers all of our albums and some extra unreleased items. I am writing to you from Kern's Gate and from Death Valley the birthplace of our new album.

Details to follow. With the shedding of skin we have discarded our Mechanical Animal clothes, costumes stage items, etc. This will be available for auction and a portion of the proceeds will go to charity.

I love you all in the only true sense of the word.

I am in the process of fulfilling my promise to revamp the site. include art of mine and others. record a new album. make a movie. spend time in Death Valley.

hopefully the live album will keep you company in the meantime.

we should prepare to fight for our freedoms that are quickly slipping. not just censorship. thought. soul. watch a film by Bunuel called Viridiana, it's one of my favorites. it was banned and caused a riot in its time. So did Fando and Lis by Jodorowsky.

sadly, it is up to us to keep little brother (ourselves) from taking away our right to think and dream.

the bible and shakespeare, although beautiful in their descriptions, couldn't be more violent than any pitiful rock album or movie of our time.

I wish you all luck in this dying world and my album is my testimony. The world has disappointed me now more than ever and I thank them for giving me the hatred to create this destructive force of music I will let loose next year.

Sincerely with love and I am the third and final Beast, Marilyn Manson

November 16, 1999 [someone on the bbs said this:] Subject: Manson, No disrespect, but you got ALOT of Nerve Article: I'll be the first to say that I don't know the whole story between you and Trent but from what I DO know I'd say that You Have Alot Of Nerve to publicly disrespect the man who, in my opinion, is SOLELY responsible for you having as wide a fan base as you have. If not for him you would PROBABLY still be playing in shit bars in Florida. AGAIN I MUST SAY I MEAN NO DISRESPECT TO YOU after all I have been a fan of yours since the first single,(GYG) and definetly support your message. I just want to see the two of you back together. I would also like to hear your side of the story. If you read this, Manson, just know that I and MANY of the mutual fans you share with NIN are disappointed with this SEEMINGLY childish disrespect of one another. JP

[manson replied first with this:]

Author: [omega] Subject: RE: Manson, No disrespect, but you got ALOT of Nerve Article: to keep it short, I have had nothing but good things to say, despite my alleged betrayal. I consider Trent like a brother and I miss him. However, I won't sit back and get bashed when I have provided him with about 10 million dollars in income. I wish him luck. I am my own world, his is what it is. I have never wanted to compete. sincerely marilyn manson

[and then added this:]

Author: [omega] Subject: I Have nerve Article: I doubt I would be doing anything other than this, with or without anyone's help, because will power is the only path to getting your dreams.

this subject is pointless and only one that Trent really needs to bring up.

I'm quite busy thinking about my art. good night all

Author: Mike Barnhart Subject: MARILYN if you read this today please inform your flock as to who I am and...... Article: What Song I inspired. See just when you think your fans really know you they Don't!

See you in Hell Marilyn Or Canton whichever comes first!

Yes I called him Marilyn outta respect for his Art!

[and manson said this::]Author: [omega] Subject: who I am and...... mike barnhart Article: yes, it is sadly true that some boy named Mike Barnhart used to kick my ass when I was in junior high. It's a shame I didn't have a gun. Fortunately I grew up to be something else. Not better, just different. I hold no grudges. I hope your trailer is warm Mike. It gets cold in those parks this time of year.

Love, the third and final beast Marilyn Manson

[and clarified with this so that the jr high kids didn't go get their guns and put holes in the Mike Barnharts of their little worlds:]

Author: [omega] Subject: it was a shame i didn't have a ... Article: sarcasm, etc, etc, ad nauseum.

Nov. 16. 1999 Author: [omega] Subject: mike barnart / trent reznor Article: I know Mike knows I was just having a laugh. Mike, thanks for making me realize I was a pussy with no confidence. Junior high can be ugly.

Best of luck. p.s. I like trailers. Most of my family comes from one.

And as far as Trent, I don't give a shit about making money. I have fun being an artist and I'm thankful people let me. I'm also glad he got me started. And he's the same way. He has more integrity than anyone I know. But I have made him rich. So he should smile.

Love and I am back to Death Valley, see you in some weeks ahead.

Nov.16.1999 Author: [omega] Subject: alleged new manson demos

Article: First of all we have not written any songs remotely related to those titles. Secondly, I am not recording in any studio and do not use cassetes ever.

Just want to clarify rumors before they get ridiculous.

Nice try though, Marilyn Manson

Nov.16.1999 Author: [omega] Subject: last post for tonight

Article: Raven, you can find me on aol, if you are who you think you are.

Sorry, to everyone else. I wasn't ignoring you. It's wonderful to hear from you. Suprises are on their way.

Nov.16.1999 Author: [omega] Subject: HERE IT IS

Article: The posts were cleared to make space. New ideas. New ways of thinking. That's all.

I may not post for some time as I am going away from "civilization" for awhile. In the meantime, my site will slowly change day by day. And Omega and the symbol will be dead.

Thanks to everyone who appeared on TLTOE. I hope you can hear yourselves in the backround. If you weren't there, I hope the cd makes you feel like you were.

We are born as angels and our parents are God. They make us in there image. We follow their commandments. When we reach the age of reason, the Age of Horus, we can no longer be what our "parents" our "god" our "society" would like us to be. Maturity, sensibility, rebellion, 15. This is when we fall. This is Lucifer. Being what you want isn't wrong. The story has always been written from someone else's perspective. Now we must write our own, here among thorns.

Next time I see you, I will announce the title of the new album, and share some footage of the recording.

12/25/99 HOPE YOUR CELEBRATING JESUS' BIRTHDAY

Away in a manger, no crib for his bed, The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head. The stars in the bright sky looked down where he lay, The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay.

The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes, but little Lord Jesus no crying he makes. I love thee, Lord Jesus! Look down from the sky, And stay by my side until morning is nigh.

SEASON�S GREETINGS FROM MARILYN MANSON

February 1, 2000 Author: [mercury symbol] Subject: TO THE BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE Article:

I want to thank everyone for their generous devotion and support. It's a gift to be able to make art and not only have people enjoy it, but to make a living doing it.

I'd like to say my love is for creating and destroying. Motivating and provoking. Some people think money is the reason. To me it's only paper and a concept like gravity. I�m thankful for my success, and I hope that everybody who bought my records feels their money was well spent. It makes me happy every time I buy a book that teaches me something new. All I can say is that the band and I are so proud of this new record that we can�t wait for you to hear it.

YOUR input, research, fan mail and criticisms have all been great inspirations, and our lifeblood.

Thank you for helping this site's transformation take place. Mine has been coming since 1969--Apollo, the political imprisonment of Manson, Altamont, and the death of old ways.

By your request there will be more photos of TWIGGY, POGO, GINGER and 5 up this week along with more changes to accommodate your needs.

LOVE AND I AM ALWAYS YOURS,

MARILYN MANSON THE THIRD AND FINAL BEAST

Author: [mercury symbol] posted 3/17/00 Subject: HELLO FROM HOLY WOOD Article:

I am very impressed and pleased that everyone is using this BBS to express themselves with inspiring essays and artworks. Since this Fan Gallery is new, I�d like to ask everyone to be patient while I create the best method to select pieces for discussion. I will NOT make this a competition because art is subjective and I am not in a position to decide if something is better than the rest. No one is.

I want this gallery to be a place where I choose things for us to examine and learn from. Some may be funny. Some may be more technically superior. Some may be primitive or simply horrible. Some may be hateful and some may be derogatory towards you or my band. This is not a talent contest unless you look at provocation and stimulation as a talent. I do.

I am also surprised by the extensive research some of you are doing. Everyone is beginning to tap into the same frequency. I added a link to brian deneke.org, a memorial page for the teenager I spoke about at Disinfo Con. I encourage you to visit this one.

Also, I would like to clarify that my film project has not been cancelled. I have just decided to focus on the album and the 2 books first so that my story can be enjoyed or hated in its true form. While the book of images is still being created, the novel Holy Wood has been written for some time. It is not an adaptation of the script and it is not a �graphic novel.� Although the story and style aren�t exactly conventional, it is a traditional novel in every other aspect.

Sometime in the next week, I will be broadcasting a video transmission from within the studio. In this I will clarify some of the rumors and answer the questions you have regarding my record label and the aforementioned projects.

Keep creating all of the great work. A revolution is only achieved when rebellion is realized and focused.

Love and I am,

Marilyn Manson THE THIRD AND FINAL BEAST

Hello from the gutters of Holy Wood

Thanks for those few at NYC--- and you can expect more coming your way.

they see no point in trying to come to some agreement or co-operation with humans, as their study of our behavior towards our own planet/people/animal kingdom tells them that

where do we go?

we will know soon enough...prepare.
