Marilyn Manson Almost Loses Ear In Brawl

Manson didn't provide many details about the brawl; simply that he won but also needed stitches to save his ear after being hit with a glass table.

The brawl reportedly took place in the Swiss city of Basel last Tuesday, when Manson's coheadlining Twins of Evil tour with Rob Zombie hit the city.

Manson posted a brief message on Twitter Tuesday, followed by a photo of his injured ear. We wrote:

"I was hit by a glass table in a dangerous fight. I was however, the victor but had to have 24 stitches to keep my ear from becoming Van Goth."
