Marilyn Manson at three upcoming shows has responded to the backlash against the gigs in now-deleted comments.In March, Manson announced his first live dates since a series of sexual abuse allegations emerged against him, opening for Five Finger Death Punch on a run of North American dates in August and September. Manson denies all of the allegations.Added to those are three headline shows, for which the band The Funeral Portrait will serve as the opening act.That band became the subject of criticism for accepting the gigs, and their bassist Robert Weston took to X to address the backlash (via Loudwire).“I’m sorry my band that has consistently played 200 cap venues for 7 years + has a chance to open shows in front of thousands of people and people wanna be upset by it,” he wrote, before swiftly deleting the post.“If you truly know the people we are and you know the grind we’ve been on, you wouldn’t be made,” he added.

In addition, it was reported in February that Manson will pay the legal fees of artist Illma Gore, who is named as a
