From Twiggy's perspective, sounds like the door is open to him returning in the unlikely event that the allegations are proven to be false. But Manson obviously really liked him and, considering this year he's already had his father and one of his old bandmates die, having to severe ties with someone you thought you knew for over 20 years is gonna be a tough thing to do.

It's not that hard to write people off if they're proven to be pieces of shit.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but hasn’t Manson himself been accused of similar things?

He sure has, but you can't find much besides the security guard fiasco. Kinda fishy if you ask me

This seems to be more a case of taking him out of the public eye while things are invesigated, no matter what the guy is going to get mountains of shit while on tour. If he’s guilty them obviously he’s scum and that’s that, if he’s innocent then he comes back.

Yeah because these days Manson still wants all the "Oohs" & "Ahhs" from his controversial "shock rock", but wants none of the backlash that comes with it.

Maybe he’s actually just grown up a little and realises how bad this looks? That’s gotta be a hell of a shock considering how friendly with the guy he was..

Manson's been through a shit ton in the first quarter of his career, I mean Columbine especially took a toll on him so I don't really blame him for being more tame these days in terms of shock

I completely believe the allegations and Twiggy has a pretty bad history with this kinda stuff, but having followed this from the beginning, Addams(the victim) is pretty fucking off her hinges. She's said Marilyn is a Nazi pedo a few weeks ago but is now apparently thankful for him and best friends.

Side note: Manson is a victim himself, not shocking he'd kick out a rapist.

people who think Manson is a pedo or a nazi fetishist literally know nothing about the guy except his fucking name

Eh my brother worked at a music venue and there were some questionable stuff with Manson at his shows, one time he had a girl and her mother come back to his room because the daughter wanted to lose her virginity to him... Hell if I know what actually happened, I just know Manson isn't actually a saint either, hell he was dating a young Evan Rachel Wood when she was still a teenager and he was well into his 30s.

Unless Manson has already found a new bassist to take Twiggy's place, I suspect Paul Wiley will switch from secondary guitar to bass for the next few shows.

Tye Trujillo's free?

"Yeah because these days Manson still wants all the "Oohs" & "Ahhs" from his controversial "shock rock", but wants none of the backlash that comes with it."

That's some dumb point of view tbh. He's allowed to show us some shocking stuff without supporting it. Using edgy elements for shock value and awareness =/= supporting and being ok with rape (I can't believe I'm writing this lol)

Old Manson had a thing for younger women but as previous users have alluded to, he too was sexually abused when he was younger. Also, Manson is the definition of rock star excess and if his taste in women can come across as "rapey" then we also gotta look into the boys in Depeche Mode cos they made it very explicit in their earlier albums how much they loved very young women.

is there any old musician non-problematic at this point, i'm tired lol

gonna stick to bjork from now on

(well, edit: i never actually liked depeche mode tho lol)

How did anyone ever think it was ok to release that song into the world.

lol

According to Danny Elfman he wrote that song to mock political correctness. I doubt he promotes pedophilia :/

What Asdfp277 said reminded me of it lol

u gotta have an iq of about 13 to believe he promotes pedophilia

it's like if somebody said lemmy supported pedophilia because of this

i'd probably punch them in the face

"That's some dumb point of view tbh. He's allowed to show us some shocking stuff without supporting it. Using edgy elements for shock value and awareness =/= supporting and being ok with rape (I can't believe I'm writing this lol)"

I never implied that he supported or was okay with rape, but that's just your opinion man.

Of course he isn't shock rock anymore, he's in his 40's. Shock wears off after a while lol.
