WTF is Trent's Speech? I better hit the NIN message baords....

maybe he was kicking off the Convention season...and remember P, Carlos Santana, and, RIP, Steve Ray Vaughn give verbal interludes

legna! evenstar! What did you think?

Light show was AMAZING!!!

oh my GOOOOD

got there at noon and ended up scoring barrier by robin

fucking. incredible. loved the lightshow. trent is a god. robin is fucking amazing. gave up live was probably the best thing i've ever seen. it felt way too short for me

and now i must crash

he is perfect...

the only one that can stop trent is trent...

the only one that can out perform trent is trent...

he is his own villian and hero



eight video panel...top row, second from the right, nice couple

and it's not a light show...

it's art...

It was a great show - just visually amazing and a really nice selection of new and old material. No Good Soldier - - but that's OK, I enjoyed everything else he played.

Was it me, or did you think his voice sounded a bit strained (he had some problems earlier in the tour)?

his voice was worn = no piercing screams

Fours teens bought $1100 worth of NIN gear

D.R. any more pictues?

If a little jazzy experimentation wasn’t everyone’s cup of tea, the must-be-seen-to-be-believed visual effects sure were: a giant LED curtain that projected everything from a rainstorm to shattering glass; swinging light cords that looked like a candy-cane lane; synchronized videos that seemed to move along to the music; and static screens that disappeared with the touch of a finger. (You can bow down before Leroy Bennett, the lighting programmer who's worked on tours for the Cure, Prince and Paul McCartney, and currently Madonna.) During “Survivalism,” eight different screens showed live surveillance shots of the crowd, and a couple who may or may not have been doing it in the Forum’s bathroom And on “The Hand That Feeds,” a single, stark image of Bush in the background that very slowly and eerily morphed into McCaine’s.

Even in the midst of all that unmitigated noise, you could hear rows of wows. Which begs the question: Why doesn’t this man have his own theme park yet? Dolly Parton has Dollywood. And Trent Reznor could have Nailland, or Nintopia, the happiest place in hell

Truly a visually amazing show - AND Trent and company sounded top notch.
I LOVED LOVED LOVED the whole electronic visual presentation for the Year Zero material. The surveillance scenes (^ above) were awesome!

and these images do not even do the show justice!

thanks for the pics.

switching the red and blue lights were like "dropping some ..."
