Then curiosity got the better of me and I looked at the photo

I'm not a somone who looks into his personal shit, tee's, pins etc. And I'm NOT shaming anyone who does 👌🏻 BUT

When this first dropped everyone was pretty certain this was just about the end of the US leg but after listening to that recent Full Metal Jackie interview, I’m thinking there was a little more to that chapter than we originally thought. TF is burnt out on Ghost. He wants to do something else and spend more time with the family. It was right there in front of our faces for months and we missed it (well I did anyway, I thought it was ALL a dream sequence, lol but that’s another post)

Anyway tonight’s the night, the end of the Skeletour, I hope they do something special for the fans maybe even play Cenotaph.?

That image being there was no accident, no coincidence (and look at that silly man and the way he turns around lol) at the time Special Ghoul here was in the studio recording Prequelle. Of course in the end we didn't get a new Papa, we got a very old Papa and a Cardinal (what a troll *affectionately*) but this short little moment as I recall sent the fandom spiraling and many theories arose from it. It's weird how it just kinda vanished and I had to really dig for it.

Anyway

I have a few. And these could be from The Black to the Future tour or the Popestar tour. I admit I have my Dust in a pile waiting for me to put in a memories book (which I've been very lazily putting together) And to be honest I wasn't really thinking back then that Mummy Dust was that important. Alice Cooper had billions, Marilyn Manson had triple sixes and att I thought it was just something bands gave to their fans who were at the show as souvenirs.

Anyway this the OG (do with this as u will)

Yep neither of these are in perfect condition. Grabbing things out of the air shot out of a cannon will do that.

NOW I hope @ghuleshbabe🤞🏻🙏doesn't mind me using their photo from the 10th in comparison

Its perfect and the only difference I see is

And LVR050558 whatever that means

I think that professionally filming the shows is great. GTV is fantastic I'm a big fan of Vanessa HOWEVER we are now seeing these clips through their eyes, a homogenized version of what we perceive as a concert goer. There's nothing wrong with that really, I've watched hundreds of great professionally filmed concerts (mostly from the 60s-early 80's) And so many of them I love.

BUT as much as Mr. Forge dislikes social media, if it wasn't for said disliked media in the early days of Ghost, without the fandom a lot would have been lost. And who knows how long it might have taken for people to realize besides the spectacle that the music when you dive in IS AWESOME.

Before the lawsuit the fandom for the most part was very respectful, we knew who the members of the band were, we would post cheeky things like "damn, I really love that band Repugnant" and never mentioned a word about where that came from.

When Tobias Forge wanted anonymity (again, for the most part) the fandom, we gave him that. It's actually surprising how long it took for him to be outed.

And NOW I think if he asked the current fandom to use their phones LESS, wisely (especially the privileged few in the first few rows, if he really wants connection) I believe they would give him that. And all he has to do is ask.

So maybe stop corralling your fandom like idiots on lines for Yonder pouches and making kids feel unsafe (which kids, is a lot of the fandom now) to be without their phones (who grew up in a world of plague and sadly a lot of hate.)

"Two Corinthians and anybody that knows current history knows that Two Corinthians does not exist, it's Second Corinthians. But um .. When you pose with a bible and try to trick your followers that you have any clue what your talking about and you say that wrong, it becomes kinda humoristic"- Tobias Forge (Morbid Podcast March 7 2025)

A funny thing about this...D Hrump when speaking to a religious crowd at a university a few years back, made this very mistake. Hrump’s pronunciation of the Bible verse drew laughter from the audience. When he was told of his mistake, he downplayed it (and made it worse) by saying his Scottish mother would have said Two Corinthians as well. Later on he blamed his speech writer "who wrote it down as 2 Corinthians 3:17 " (🙄)
