Now I was never going to go myself, but Marilyn Manson has cancelled his forthcoming gig here in Stockholm because 'it was decided to reshuffle the tour and there wasn't room for a Swedish date.' Previously Marc Almond cancelled a gig here I was going to go to because of 'Ill health', but oddly never rescheduled another date.
