I have to commend Marilyn Manson's and The Smashing Pumpkins' booking agents. While we saw yesterday that Manson can sell out 2,300 seat venues, it looks like he's being upgraded to amphitheaters across the country that can seat about 15,000. Because I guess bookers feel like people might not come out to a Manson or Pumpkins headlining gig on their own, but combined… why not?
I guess it's a good gamble for them to take, and take they will as the two groups have announced North American dates this summer:
