- Following "The Reflecting God" the lights came up for a brief interlude. After the lights lowered again Manson appeared draped in the American flag and stated "I know for sure that Washington, DC is no longer a part of the United fucking States of America. So we're gonna start our own national anthem." He then began a chant of "We hate love, we love hate" which led into "Irresponsible Hate Anthem"
- Following "Irresponsible Hate Anthem" Manson stated "Is that all you're looking for? I've got a song that's specially designed just for Washington, DC." jumping directly into "Rock 'n' Roll Nigger".
Support
"Helmet" and "Rasputina" were the scheduled opening acts. "Helmet" did not perform for unknown reasons, however "Helmet" sampler tapes were handed out to people waiting in line. "Rasputina" performed as the sole opening act and performed backing vocals on "Apple of Sodom".
