Marilyn Manson was last night forced to cancel his appearance in Toronto at the last minute due to an “unforeseen illness.”
Manson and Rob Zombie are on the road together on The Twins Of Evil: The Second Coming tour, but those turning up to see the shock rocker were left angry and disappointed when it was revealed he wouldn’t be appearing.
As fans were gathering for the show at the city’s Budweiser Stage, an announcement was made from the stage saying: “Marilyn Manson will not be performing tonight due to an unforeseen illness.”
Zombie went ahead with his set and gave an impromptu take on Manson’s cover of The Eurythmics track Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This).
Zombie said at the end of the song: “Imagine how good it would sound if we rehearsed!”
Footage of the announcement and fans' reaction, along with Zombie's cover, can be seen below.
The tour is scheduled to continue on Saturday night in Montreal.
Earlier this month to mark the start of the tour, Manson and Zombie released a cover of the Beatles’ classic Helter Skelter.
