[1] Beginning on January 21, 2015, the tour includes eleven legs spanning North and South America, Australia, Europe and Japan with a total of 156 shows.

Bates left the touring lineup after the April 11, 2015 show at the Minot Municipal Auditorium in North Dakota, and was replaced on lead guitar by Paul Wiley.

Marilyn Manson described the central theme of the show as an evocation of two sides of the American Deep South: the Voodoo of the Louisiana swamp lands and the "Evangelical fervor of some of the region's churches".

[7] Following the November 2015 terrorist attacks in Paris and the cancellation of the band's subsequent performance at Le Zénith, the stage was illuminated with the French tricolor for the remainder of the tour.

[9] Bates said the incident stemmed from Manson "breaking beer bottles so he could cut himself, but the shards of glass were hitting our drummer Gil.

Beginning on July 7 in Concord, California and concluding in Cincinnati on August 8, it spanned 24 dates and visited arenas in the United States and Canada.

[15][16] The tour will see the bands performing throughout North America, and was scheduled to begin at the USANA Amphitheatre in Salt Lake City on June 9, culminating with a show at the Wells Fargo Arena in Slipknot's home town of Des Moines.

[17] However, the first twelve dates of the tour were postponed after a physical examination revealed that Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor had broken two vertebrae in his neck.

His gestures, stage theatrics and signature guttural growl brought any tenured Manson fan back to day's past".

[4] Nicole Malczan, reviewing for Alternative Nation, complimented Manson's vocals as "raw and still powerful" and praised the show for its stripped-down production, saying that "those who hoped for some shock value may have been disappointed.

[29] Dom Lawson of The Guardian commended the band's headline set at the Download Festival, calling Manson a "rejuvenated performer" before saying that he was "back to his malevolent, haughty best".

[31] In his review of the band's concert at London's Hammersmith Apollo, NME's James Bentley was similarly positive, saying "while the older Manson lacks the otherworldly vigour that his younger self did, his hoarse screeches sound better than ever".
