On Tuesday, July 9th, Marilyn Manson and Rob Zombie kicked off the third and latest installment of their recurring Twins of Evil Tour, this one dubbed Hell Never Dies, in Baltimore's Royal Farms Arena. Each played a set packed with sing-along fan favorites (see the full set lists below) and stunning shock-rock theatrics. For Manson, it was his first performance with new drummer Brandon Pertzborn (Black Flag, Doyle, Ho99o9) of whom he told us ahead of the trek: "I have a strong feeling [this Twins of Evil run] is going to be a lot more punk rock than the last tour, because our new drummer is a very hard hitter, and I'm excited about that." Photographer Mark Smitty Neal was there in the photo pit to catch all the action — see some of his standout shots below.
