MARILYN MANSON CANCELS SHOWS AFTER ONSTAGE ACCIDENT
Daniel Kreps of Rolling Stone reports:
Marilyn Manson has canceled the next nine dates of his Heaven Upside Down Tour following an onstage incident Saturday in New York in which the singer was crushed by a stage prop.
“Marilyn Manson is being forced to cancel several of his October dates on his forthcoming US tour,” the singer’s rep said in a statement.
“On Saturday night, the legendary performer suffered an injury on stage towards the end of his set at NYC’s Hammerstein Ballroom causing him to cut the show short. He was treated for the injury at a local hospital and will be recuperating at home in Los Angeles.”
As of Sunday afternoon, the rep declined to say if Manson had left the New York hospital.
Manson’s rep added, “The shows from Boston, October 2 through Houston, October 14th will be rescheduled for a later date. Manson hopes to return to the stage soon, more details on upcoming shows to follow.”
