I’d be stoked to hear one FP track. It won’t happen, but it would be rad. I suspect the set list will be near identical to 2012 but “Psalm 69” and all the “Relapse” tunes will be cutout for a few FBTE tracks.
“We’re working on some insane visuals for this tour. Just be prepared to be shellshocked for awhile. We’re not bringing the fence for this one. We did that in 1989-1990 and then we brought it back in 2008, but it was a challenge. Half the time it ended up in our face and cut us up. But, we’ll definitely have some cool stuff going on stage. We’ll be playing songs from the In Case You Didn’t Feel Like Showing Up era that haven’t been played in a long time and stuff off Filth Pig as well. There hasn’t been an official opener band announced yet, but I’m assuming there will be one.”

Sounds like the same press statement from the culatour
Predictions are hard, especially when it’s the future, but nonetheless…
The Chicago Blackhawks will defeat the Pittsburgh Penguins 4 games to 2 in the Stanley Cup finals, taking their third championship in six years.
Miley Cyrus or some likeminded pop star will run out of ways to titillate and (yawn) ‘shock’ people, so her handlers will make her have a stage-managed breakdown paralleling the one experienced by Britney Spears a while ago.
Elsewhere in the arts, Hollywood studios and the ‘big 4’ record labels (is it 4 now? Or 3? I forget) will continue to piss and moan about record losses incurred by file sharers etc. They will in fact encounter serious losses, but independent studios, labels etc. will experience better returns on investment than ever.
The environmentalist movement in China will speak out more loudly than at any point before; crackdowns on them will be violent and will make things even more interesting in an already tense East Asian geopolitical theater. Meanwhile, Japan will re-build the Self Defense Forces into a legitimate army in defiance of the post-WWII constitution.
The 2016 U.S. presidential campaign will begin depressingly early as usual, and will be sold as a Bush vs. Clinton contest (yes, the electorate will forget the catastrophic idiocy of the ‘W.’ years and will pick ‘Jeb’ as the Republican standard-bearer, they will also forget the horrific track record of Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State.) Any meaningful third or fourth party will again be denied ballot access or merely a forum in which to reach potential voters.

Well, I’m looking forward to seeing what comes of this. I think Al finally has absorbed a bit of criticism about the predictable setlists and is ready to give us something different.
And I also think that many times, the band is kind of on autopilot while Al goes out to drink moonshine and shoot raccoons. Sin is a huge fan of classic Ministry and Filth Pig stuff and was a major factor in pushing the last record to be something different than the previous speed-metal offerings. If Sin can steer this ship a bit we might get something cool and different for the set list this time too.

-Avengers 2 will break summer box office records, but Ant-Man will be the least successful Marvel movie yet. Pundits will ask “Is the superhero genre dead?”
-The new Star Wars will break Christmas box office records, but reviews will be wildly mixed.
-The new Mad Max will barely make its money back but its fans will be wildly enthusiastic
-The new Terminator will flop big time.
-Next year’s biggest Oscar winner will be a film that nobody’s heard of yet. It will take place in Edwardian England.
No chance that Terminator will flop, which is a shame because, judging by the shittier than humanly possible trailer (probably the worst trailer for a big budget film I’ve witnessed in aeons), it probably deserves to tank.
But people lap that shit up. Did you see the last Terminator film?? Or the one before it? Holy Dipshit Excursions Into Absurdity Batman!! Those things were AWFUL. But still made healthy profits.
Mad Max will not flop. The internet is a buzz after that trailer. People will flock in droves - even if it proves to be a stinker.
Star Wars will clean up but I doubt it will set any benchmarks for originality and will add very little other than new merchandising to the already bulging Star Wars universe.
Avengers 2 will be just short of Star Wars in terms of box office. But I could absolutely not give one single iota of a fuck about that shit.
And nobody gives a shit about Oscar winners any more.

The internet was “a buzz” about Snakes On A Plane, and that shit tanked.[/reply]
Hahaha, i “LOL’d” at that, most heartily in fact. That film was all buzz and fuck all substance. A really terrible film, i was unfortunate enough to get swept up in the hype-wave and see it in the cinema. Terrible.
I’m a huge Mad Max fan, been looking forward to this for a long time and the trailers do not disappoint. If anyone’s thinking this looks like all action/no plot remember Mad Max 2, “your motivation is to get some guzzoline”, that’s basically all that happens. There’s no amazing script or complicated story, just the chance that you might end up chained to the front of some madman’s dragster in your quest for guzzoline.

This guy gets it.
Mad Max is not about plot.
It’s about wearing leather, driving badass modified vehicles, and kicking ass.
I will be doing a National Tour in Spring so y’all better come out and meet me in person!!
That is insane! Watching you start out as a guy with more horrible Marilyn Manson gimmicks than actual music and then blossom into a musician with real music with videos with slick productions and now into a national tour. Im filled with shock and pride for you all at the same time. You have grown from the worm boy to the the man that you fear. ‘Good job’ is an understatement. Ill make it a priority to be there… I’m still gonna talk shit on the net though.
