It was launched in support of the band’s first full-length debut album, Portrait of an American Family, which was released on July 19, 1994, five months before the tour began. The tour began on December 27, 1994, in Jacksonville, Florida, at Club 5. After this show, the first night of the tour, frontman Marilyn Manson was arrested and taken into custody for violating the Adult Entertainment Code by allegedly donning a strap-on dildo on stage. In spite of this, Manson was freed and the band appeared in Orlando the following night as scheduled.The tour concluded on March 11, 1995, after the band had played 43 shows. The last show was played in Columbia, South Carolina, at the Alcatrazz venue.Table of Contents Stage antics[edit]Tour overview[edit]Tour dates[edit]References[edit]Stage antics[edit]During these concerts, the stage was usually arranged with living room d\u00e9cor, not unlike that on the cover of Portrait of an American Family. A table with a lamp was the most commonly seen piece at the shows. The first and last shows included the most memorable incidents of the tour. On December 27, 1994, Manson was misidentified as “jacking off a strap-on dildo” and “urinating on the crowd,”[1] resulting in his arrest just one night into the tour. When concluding the concerts with a South Carolina show on March 11, 1995, Manson slipped on a beer bottle, smashing it. Angry, Manson picked up a piece of the bottle and cut his chest “from one side to the other,” his first act of notoriously cutting himself on-stage. Closing the performance, the band also ignited drummer Sara Lee Lucas’ kit in an attempt to ignite only his bass drum. Claims that Lucas himself was lit aflame have been made by Manson but are disputed by Lucas.[N 1]Tour overview[edit]The tour ran from December 27, 1994, to March 11, 1995. The band completed 44 shows.The performances in Carrboro and Columbia were rescheduled to the last two dates of the tour. These performances were originally scheduled for February 16, 1994, and February 18, 1994, respectively.Tour dates[edit]List of concerts, showing date, city, country, and venueDateCityCountryVenueOpening Act(s)AttendanceRevenueDecember 27, 1994JacksonvilleUnited StatesClub 5n\/a\u2014\u2014December 28, 1994OrlandoThe Edge\u2014\u2014December 29, 1994TampaJannus Landing\u2014\u2014December 31, 1994Fort LauderdaleThe Edge\u2014\u2014January 11, 1995HoustonAbyss\u2014\u2014January 13, 1995DallasTrees\u2014\u2014January 14, 1995AustinBackroom\u2014\u2014January 15, 1995San AntonioShowcase\u2014\u2014January 17, 1995El PasoClub 101\u2014\u2014January 18, 1995MesaNile\u2014\u2014January 19, 1995Los AngelesWhiskey\u2014\u2014January 21, 1995San FranciscoBottom of the Hill\u2014\u2014January 22, 1995Palo AltoThe Edge\u2014\u2014January 24, 1995SlidellThe Snake Pit\u2014\u2014January 25, 1995VancouverCanadaPacific Coliseum\u2014\u2014January 27, 1995Salt Lake CityUnited StatesClub Vortex[2]\u2014\u2014January 28, 1995DenverOgden Theater\u2014\u2014January 30, 1995St. LouisMississippi Nights\u2014\u2014February 1, 1995MinneapolisFirst Avenue\u2014\u2014February 2, 1995MilwaukeeShank Hill\u2014\u2014February 3, 1995ChicagoMetro\u2014\u2014February 4, 1995DetroitSt. Andrews Hall\u2014\u2014February 5, 1995LakewoodPhantsy Theatre\u2014\u2014February 7, 1995TorontoCanadaOpera House\u2014\u2014February 9, 1995CambridgeUnited StatesMiddle East Caf\u00e9\u2014\u2014February 10, 1995NorthamptonPearl Street Nightclub\u2014\u2014February 11, 1995ProvidenceClub Babyhead\u2014\u2014February 12, 1995New York CityLimelight\u2014\u2014February 14, 1995Washington, D.C.9:30 Club\u2014\u2014February 15, 1995HamptonNsect Club\u2014\u2014February 17, 1995New OrleansMuddy Waters\u2014\u2014February 21, 1995AtlantaPoint\u2014\u2014February 22, 1995AthensGeorgia State Theatre\u2014\u2014February 24, 1995SyracuseGoldstein Auditorium\u2014\u2014February 25, 1995PhiladelphiaTheater for Living Arts\u2014\u2014February 27, 1995MiddletownSportland Caf\u00e9\u2014\u2014March 1, 1995OldbridgeBirch Hill Night Club\u2014\u2014March 2, 1995Lido BeachMalibu Night Club\u2014\u2014March 4, 1995BuffaloNetwork\u2014\u2014March 6, 1995AlbanyQE2\u2014\u2014March 7, 1995LancasterChameleon Club\u2014\u2014March 8, 1995CincinnatiBogarts\u2014\u2014March 9, 1995Winston-SalemZiggy’s Tavern\u2014\u2014March 10, 1995CarrboroCat’s Cradle\u2014\u2014March 11, 1995ColumbiaAlcatrazz{Monster Voodoo Machine Isabelle’s Gift }{NA}References[edit]Notes^ Sara Lee Lucas told MansonWiki in November 2010, “I was never lit on fire, and my kit was never intentionally ignited.
