REVIEWS

Amazon Customer Review
The Guns, God, and Government World Tour DVD highlights Marilyn Manson's tour around the world by piecing footage together for the 17 song set and also includes a rowdy and downright hilarious half hour documentary. The live set nicely displays how great the stage shows are at a Manson concert; and the crowds respond with unabashed worship towards Manson and crew. Standout songs include "Irresponsible Hate Anthem", "Great Big White World", "The Nobodies", "Rock is Dead", "Cruci-fiction in Space", "Sweet Dreams", and "Lunchbox". The aforementioned documentary is a nice bonus, but for the price of this DVD, some other features could have been included, but all together this DVD is better than I thought it would be.
