Appears onstage attached to cross made of video screens. The set features minor instrument damage. Rock Pig Rating: 3/5 Courtney: Mouths off a great deal between songs. Gives the crowd two guitars and the boots off her feet. Visibly mocks Manson's set from the side of the stage. Rock Pig rating: 3/5 March 2: Vancouver, Canada Manson: Onstage, announces that Love is "in the back, playing with her dirty pussy". Becomes dizzy while attempting a series of head spins and frankly buggers over, hitting his hand on a monitor. The set finishes early, with Manson yanking plugs from stage amps. Rock Pig Rating: 5/5 Courtney: Runs onstage after Manson's "pussy" comment, lifts her dress and jumps on his back, straddling him as he continues to sing. Alledgedly reminisces to a reporter from local radio station CFOX about her days stripping at a Vancouver bar. Rock Pig Rating: 4/5 March 3: Seattle, Washington Manson: Onstage, asks whether the audience fell asleep during Hole's set - to reportedly thunderous roars. Offstage, tells 'MTV News': "It's a pretty good audience balance, with about 85 per cent Manson, about 15 per cent Hole." Rock Pig Rating: 4/5 Courtney: During a performance seen by many as "demur", she refers to Manson as "that guy with the blue hair and the dope sign". Offstage, tells 'MTV News': "Grunge is dead. Grunge is over, okay, everyone? I'm here and we're here to help everyone move through this." Rock Pig Rating: 2/5 Manson Total: 12 Courtney Total: 9 - Kerrang!, 1999 - - - - - - - - - - - - - |
