Marilyn Manson was forced to cut short his concert in Houston on Saturday night after the shock-rock pioneer collapsed during the early part of the show.

As the Houston Press pointed out in its review of the show, Manson had already warned the crowd early on in the set that he wasn't feeling too well, adding that he was suffering from "heat poisoning". Mid-way through the performance of his crowd-favorite cover of The Eurythmics’ ‘Sweet Dreams Are Made Of This’, Manson was seen falling down before eventually coming to rest on one of the stage monitors. He did get back on his feet to perform his fifth song of the night, “Antichrist Superstar”, but walked offstage afterward, at which time the rest of his set was canceled.
