The first UK concert of rock star Marilyn Manson's tour has been cancelled after pressure from campaigners and an MP.
The first leg of his One Assassination Under God Tour had been set to kick off at Brighton Centre on October 29.
On Saturday, fans who go online to contact Ticketmaster receive a message saying: "This event has been cancelled.
"Ticket sales have stopped, but there may be tickets available for other dates."
In January, prosecutors in the US said they would not file charges against Manson, whose real name is Brian Warner, after long-running investigation into allegations of sexual assault and domestic violence.

Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman said the allegations were too old under the law and the evidence is not sufficient to charge the 56-year-old shock rocker.
LA County sheriff's detectives had said early in 2021 that they were investigating Manson over alleged incidents between 2009 and 2011 in West Hollywood, where Manson lived at the time.
Earlier this month in an open letter to the Brighton and Hove city council leader Bella Sankey, Sian Berry, the Green MP for Brighton Pavilion, called for the October concert to be cancelled.

In the letter, which was co-signed by some victim support groups and the University of Sussex students' union, she wrote: "Many survivors in Brighton and Hove, and organisations supporting them, will have serious concerns about this booking and its wider impact on other people visiting the city centre, local residents and the wider community."
The letter, which was posted online, prompted a flood of responses from the public pointing out that Manson had not been found guilty of allegations against him and that a four-year investigation did not lead to charges.
Others branded the call to cancel the gig as censorship.

List of Oasis songs heard blasting out of the Principality Stadium days ahead of Cardiff gigs
List of Oasis songs heard blasting out of the Principality Stadium days ahead of Cardiff gigs Potential setlist clues? Maybe. We've been listening to what songs have been drifting out of the Principality Stadium as Oasis get ready to rock and roll this Friday and Saturday Oasis will be performing the first two gigs of their tour in Cardiff (Image: PA ) The Principality Stadium has been rocking with the sound of Oasis preparations this week ahead of Liam and Noel Gallagher reuniting on stage for the first time in 16 years. The massive interest and chatter around what will they have on their setlist dominates, and with just days to go until the opening two gigs on July 4 and 5, the Principality Stadium has been a hive of activity. Now, if you want the setlist on Friday to be a surprise, then maybe stop reading now - you might find our guide to the gigs useful instead - as we are going to start sharing what songs have been played out loud so far. Yesterday, June 30, the rock and roll kicked off with the first soundcheck with it seeming like Liam and Noel were back together, Liam denied he was there on his X account, but added that it could be recordings laid down in rehearsal. Liam said on X: "Mmm I'm not sure about the vocals there too aggressive he really needs to take a chill pill man he's just so angry all the time I don't know who he thinks he is as far as I'm concerned he's just a bigmouth from up north". A fan then asked Liam to "confirm or deny" if it was him rehearsing. Liam replied: "I've been in my pool all day doing under water farts so it's defo a recording from rehearsals unless there's 2 of me which I'm absolutely 1 million per cent here for well there for as well". Either way, it's Oasis, blasting out of a huge venue ready for their comeback so desired by fans and they can't get enough. So, here are the songs heard coming out of the stadium so far. Cigarettes & Alcohol Some Might Say Hello Roll With It Half The World Away Bring it On Down Cast No Shadow Slide Away We will add to the list if we hear any more, here's some video of those songs being played captured by one of our reporters. Content cannot be displayed without consent Oasis competition: Win tickets to see Oasis at Wembley Content cannot be displayed without consent Tickets for the Oasis reunion sold out across all venues due to huge demand when they went online earlier in the year. However, there are still several options available for fans trying to snag a last-minute spot. Limited last-minute tickets can be bought from the official Ticketmaster resale site, where fans who can no longer go sell their seats, although these tend to go into and out of stock quickly. Viagogo and resale tickets Sites such as viagogo, Stubhub, and Vivid Seats allow fans to buy resale tickets from other fans. However, it is important to note that ticket conditions often prohibit resale after initial purchase. Those tickets may not be valid for admittance to gigs. Fans intending to buy tickets for live events through resale websites should check the ticket terms and conditions, to confirm whether resale is prohibited, before they buy. Ticket terms and conditions can be checked with the original seller, such as Ticketmaster or Live Nation. If resale is prohibited, tickets bought second-hand could be voided and admission to the event refused.
