Nine Inch Nails Tour Fapping Thread

[thatguymark]

Definitely the best Piggy and Terrible Lie I've seen this tour. Looks like he just turned the intensity up tonight. I hope this is a taste of what Tension will be like.

[reseen_lamenti]

Your promises, your promises and O_O lies

[Mr.Benjamin]

Go Trent Go!

[Mr.Metheus]

Do they play reptile on these festival shows, I can't remember...

During some of the shows, but I think they just skipped past the part where it would have been played.

[_minus]

Do they play reptile on these festival shows, I can't remember...

Yes they do. More often than not.

[reseen_lamenti]

Couldn't tell if Ilan missed his snare hit and covered it up, or whether it was a skip on my end.

[thefragile_jake]

Oh heck yes, the distortion on the vocals!

[joplinpicasso]

Vox distortionz.

[pigpen]

During some of the shows, but I think they just skipped past the part where it would have been played.

That's okay, because now they're playing burn!!!!!!!

BURRRRRRRRRNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[rampface]

Just turned this on. Have I missed any surprises?

also my stream totally sucks! Really hope someone is recording

[reseen_lamenti]

Deep bass hits and great vocoder coming through in Burn

[Virtua Afro DJ]

Am I the only one that doesn't like Burn?

I never wanna see this song... live... AGAAAIIINN.

[SM Rollinger]

"mutha fuckas gonna have to pay"

trent IS on fire tonight!

[orestes]

OMG this version of Burn!

[toomanyrifts]

[Mr.Benjamin]

Firrrrreeeeeeeeeee!

[joplinpicasso]

What an amazing scream.

[thefragile_jake]

WOW. That swallowed up in fire line sounded great!

[reseen_lamenti]

Hot DAMN Burn;s performance and mix sounds incredible tonight!

[pigpen]

hopefully 9. will be everything! The perfect follow up to Burn!!! hahahaha

[_minus]

The synth sex at the end of Burn tonight. Sweet motherfuck.

[joplinpicasso]

Were those extra synths during the outro? Have never heard those before.

[reseen_lamenti]

hopefully 9. will be everything! The perfect follow up to Burn!!! hahahaha
Closer.
awwww.....

[heroicraptor]

Holy shit the SFX for Closer.

[Mr.Metheus]

6,666 people are watching now.

[Virtua Afro DJ]

While I'm not much of a fan of Burn, that version was brutal.

[joplinpicasso]

Yeah, definitely sounds slightly new synth tones, right? So fucking tight tonight.

[pigpen]

I like how they open that panel exposing TR and the camera..
It's like we're busting in on him jerking off or something, so candid and awkward!!!

Then he awkwardly turns to the crowd! hahah

[reseen_lamenti]

Were those extra synths during the outro? Have never heard those before.
That's what I LOVE about this festival run. Everything, especially synth takes (perhaps that's what was meant by Ally's increased role in these live shows), is much more on-the-fly than previous renditions. No two performances are ever the same, at least with musical nuances. Bootleg compilations will be real fun this time around.

[intothevoid2007]

I am preying for him to sneak "Somewhat Damaged" in here somewhere

[rampface]

Why does my stream suck so bad? What's the best link? I have firefox

[thefragile_jake]

Shit, even Closer sounds on fire tonight.

[Mr.Metheus]

Why does my stream suck so bad? What's the best link? I have firefox

Mine is shit too.

[thefragile_jake]

Yeah, mine is fucking up like crazy over here.

[heroicraptor]

use this link and force it to HD (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wj6z8hywWFI)

[_minus]

It's been feeling like Trent was so pissed at how fucked the beginning shadow effects were screwed up during Copy of A that he psychically made everyone step up their musicianship a notch or fifteen.

[ComradeCornhole]

I wouldn't mind an Everything debut...

[intothevoid2007]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wj6z8hywWFI
Mine is shit too.

[joplinpicasso]

Even "Gave Up" has teh vox distortion.

[TheBang]

Best quality stream:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wj6z8hywWFI

[pigpen]

Who decided that the stage must be blue and red flashing lights forever and always for Gave Up?

....Probably the same guy the decided Reptile must always be GREEEEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Mr.Metheus]

Yes, I'm watching from that link. Still shitty.

[xolotl]

Why does my stream suck so bad? What's the best link? I have firefox

I think that's just how it is tonight. YouTube says I'm at 720p but it's clearly not always getting to me in that resolution. Or it's going through multiple encoding passes or something.

[broevol]

The lighting on Gave up is awesome. I'm impressed!

[pigpen]

MUPPET VOICES!!!! hahahahahahahaha!!!

YES!!

[thefragile_jake]

Oh man, I don't know why but the festivals have the backing vocals so high during Gave Up and Robin's little gremlin voice becomes more and more apparent. Hahahaha...

[reseen_lamenti]

I tried, yeow!

[rampface]

Thanks! This link is better. Hopefully I'm just in time for some different songs (Somewhat Damaged pleased!!)


oh my god! Trent's squeal during Gave Up!

[noise]

dat synth...

[thefragile_jake]

Holy shit, I MUST rewatch this one again! This one is awesome..

[Mr.Metheus]

Robin really hates microphones.

[joplinpicasso]

His squeals sound so sinister right now.

[intothevoid2007]

I think Robin just got tired of his mike and disposed of it via the kick

[Mr.Metheus]

So quiet... what's next???

[Fist Fuck]

Gave Up, holy shit, this is epic. Even for a song that gets played every single night. Were there some minor audio drop-outs though?

[Mr.Metheus]

I heard audio dropouts too.

[joplinpicasso]

They consistently prove night after night why they headline these festivals.

[intothevoid2007]

I think there was a minor one in the beginning

[reseen_lamenti]

Gave Up, holy shit, this is epic. Even for a song that gets played every single night. Were there some minor audio drop-outs though?
You weren't the only one.

[rewt75]

My stream could not be any more dead than it is right now.

[ChasingTheGhost]

fucking brilliant tonight.

[_minus]

Gave Up, holy shit, this is epic. Even for a song that gets played every single night. Were there some minor audio drop-outs though?

From what I've been experiencing, there have been persistent problems with the stream itself for most of NIN's show.

It's amazing how much this tour made me turn around on Me, I'm Not. I always HATED that song...but now I welcome it, they've really turned it into something special with this arrangement. I can't tell what it is, but I like it just a tad more.

[xolotl]

Help Me I Am In Hell -> Me, I'm Not is an absolutely fantastic transition, don't know if I really noticed before. The two flow really well.

[thefragile_jake]

God damn it, this stream is terrible tonight. Refreshes galore.

[_minus]

What the fuck are with these vocals in Me, I'm Not?! So amazing.

[pigpen]

Really? It's probably my favorite song from YZ, with The Greater Good and My Violent Heart following closely behind that..
I've always loved Me, I'm Not. But I'm really excited to hear Find My Way soon, which I hope is coming soon!!!!

Or maybe he'll play All Time Low.. ;)

[SM Rollinger]

Help Me I Am In Hell -> Me, I'm Not is an absolutely fantastic transition, don't know if I really noticed before. The two flow really well.
not as good as HAPPINESS IN SLAVERY! come on trent, just play it!

If anybody is still having trouble with the stream just reduce your quality. The 1080 takes something like a 5mbps upload, im watching in 480 with no problems whatsoever.

[xolotl]

And now the BAND'S video is having streaming issues! :)
Edit: Just joking about the intentional glitch visuals at the end of Me, I'm Not, in case that didn't convey well. No actual video issues.

[LenaMHJBKZ2]

Yes!, the streaming fine for me up until now and now it's getting really annoying.

[thefragile_jake]

Damn, I was really thinking we were gonna hear "Everything"

[Mr.Metheus]

AW. Was hoping this would be a new one.

[pigpen]

....and he's fucking NAILING Find My Way!!! FUCKING NAILING IT!!!!

I love it.

[heroicraptor]

dat floppy dancing

[Virtua Afro DJ]

I just recorded a sick Vine of Me, I'm Not.

[Mr.Metheus]

....and he's fucking NAILING Find My Way!!! FUCKING NAILING IT!!!!

I love it.

Would you say that he's Nine Inch Nailing it? sorry

[_minus]

Probably the best performance of Find My Way that I've heard thus far.

[pigpen]

Would you say that he's Nine Inch Nailing it? sorry

No.. I would never say that. ever. :I

[Fist Fuck]

I have no idea WHAT Trent did, but even songs like Gave Up, Closer, Terrible Lie, etc. sound so fresh and exciting and good on this tour, it'd be a shame to take any song off the setlist at this point.


The stream is working great for me. You're all using this one, right? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wj6z8hywWFI



NO FUCKING WAY SOMEWHAT DAMAGED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[joplinpicasso]

He's a pro at these low-end melodies...

[Toadflax]

People! They haven't rehearsed any other songs from Hesitation Marks yet. We know this. It's not impossible they managed to learn another song or two, but it's pretty unlikely with how busy they've been.

[Mr.Metheus]

Find My Way dance? Okay.

[orestes]

Holy shit Somewhat Damaged!

[thefragile_jake]

Oh Shit!!! Somewhat Damaged!!!

[Virtua Afro DJ]

Somewhat Damaged!

[reseen_lamenti]

I was thinking Lemongrab from Adventure Time.

Final third of the set gogogogogogo

[pigpen]

Is it just me or is TR fucking killing it tonight..
He's just DEAD on in Wish!... not to be confused with WISH, though.. ;)

[_minus]

The synth during the bridge of Wish is grating on my ears in the best possible way. Such a grimy sound.

[wight rabbit]

not to be confused with WISH, though.. ;)

Oh, shit! This is the first time I've thought of that abbreviation.

[reseen_lamenti]

Robin is ON-POINT on vox tonight

[Mr.Metheus]

Is it just me or is TR fucking killing it tonight..

They all are!

[ChasingTheGhost]

This stream is fucked for me.

[Mr.Metheus]

Yeah, it froze on me for a few seconds there

[wight rabbit]

Who the hell is off with the percussion hits?!

[reseen_lamenti]

Never noticed that filtered Acid line towards the end of the 2nd verse and outro. Awesome!
T-dawg like a dawg in heat.

[joplinpicasso]

Ha, those breath gasps!

[Krazy]

If they're gonna put screens on the side of these stages, can't they at least make them large enough for people to see them? Christ. O_O

[Mr.Metheus]

Creeeeepy breathing

[Mr.Benjamin]

Some new subtle programming in 'Survivalism' in the chorus. Nice!

[xolotl]

Rising synth line in Survivalism was awesome tonight (and, you know, everything else too)

[Fist Fuck]

Trent's making love to Survivalism.

[TheBang]

Not sure why everyone's been having problems with the stream. The 1080p's been perfect for me, which means you all get a nice capture to watch later. And if you want, I'll watch it with you, and we can post together in this thread.

[Ichiro]

lol, what the fuck was that.

[Krazy]

Trent had a hairball????

[noise]

Who the hell is off with the percussion hits?!

it's fucking Cortini

[Virtua Afro DJ]

"huh huh huh huh huh huh hee hee hee hee hee hee hee uhh uhh uhh uhh *wheeze*"

[thefragile_jake]

Whoa, Survivalism sounds more electronic than usual.

[TheBang]

lol, what the fuck was that.
I think he was making love to the song.

[wight rabbit]

I've got survivalulah!


it's fucking Cortini

DAMN IT, CORTINI, GET YOUR FUCKING SHIT TOGETHER!

[Mr.Metheus]

My stream is in 240p right now and it's made out of gigantopixels. Buy hey, at least it still sounds nice.

[_minus]

I'm not hating on Trent's vocals during these other festival dates, but this is the best he's sounded this year by a long shot.

[SM Rollinger]

Man these synth tones totally remind me of The Prodigy's track The Weather Experience!!! fuckin sweet

[reseen_lamenti]

Who the hell is off with the percussion hits?!
Ally. Seems he's got a 50/50 success rate (plus the outro to Gave Up) on this run.
That being said, he's got his hands full on this track. Props.

[thefragile_jake]

Is it weird now I can't think of Only live without hearing "GET YOUR FUCKIN' SHIT TOGETHER!!" in the song...?

[Mr.Metheus]

Is it weird now I can't think of Only live without hearing "GET YOUR FUCKIN' SHIT TOGETHER!!" in the song...?

I was half hoping the effects would screw up again...

[Virtua Afro DJ]

Is it weird now I can't think of Only live without hearing "GET YOUR FUCKIN' SHIT TOGETHER!!" in the song...?\
I'm the same with HLAH... "something's gonna get broken!"

[Mr.Metheus]

\
I'm the same with HLAH... "something's gonna get broken!"

I always hope someone will fall on the ground again. Maybe tonight!

[ChasingTheGhost]

Of course someone yells out "Free Bird".

[TheBang]

Someone just had to be a "Freebird" asshole

[Mr.Benjamin]

I'd second the 'Freebird' request lol!

[joplinpicasso]

"Alright, a few more hits.." Ha, he said it, folks.

[thefragile_jake]

Oh man..."a few more hits..."

....then you can hear some goof in the crowd "Freebird!"

[heroicraptor]

Holy shit, someone audibly shouted for Free Bird

[Ichiro]

Freebird!!!

[Fist Fuck]

Alright, a few more hits!

[wight rabbit]

Did I just hear: "It's techno and it's cold?"

[gorast]

"A few more hits..."

That was mega snarky. Maybe a hint...?

[tony.parente]

Lol "freebird!"

[dragonkal]

"A few more hits" -- did I actually hear someone yell "FREEBIRD"!?!

[noise]

Is it weird now I can't think of Only live without hearing "GET YOUR FUCKIN' SHIT TOGETHER!!" in the song...?
i ain't even mad

[BatBrain]

Is it weird now I can't think of Only live without hearing "GET YOUR FUCKIN' SHIT TOGETHER!!" in the song...?
Is there a clip of this on youtube?

[intothevoid2007]

I am so sick of The Hand That Feeds....PLEASE TRENT remove it from your live catalog....YUCK!!!

[VampVertigo]

Wow that dudes fluorescent shirt!

[reseen_lamenti]

With the sole exception of the BYIT dvd and CD:UK '05 exhibitions, something about THTF live irks me: TR always struggles with chorus vocals by straining.

[xolotl]

I hope that the totally-not-synchronized handclap animation in the background of THTF goes away by the time Tension rolls around. I like the mismatched-silhouette effect in general on the song, but whenever it gets to the handclapping bit it just looks awful to me.

[m0reta]

I am loving this performance seven ways to Sunday! So many bits in each song that I've never noticed before, so many Trentatopoeias, extra hilarity with the 'freebird'.

Also getting pretty good image w/ the 1080p other than a few drops.

[Mr.Metheus]

Is there a clip of this on youtube?

I think it was during Rock n' Heim. There's a download of it for sure, and probably YouTube.

[reseen_lamenti]

Cortini's backup vocals on HLAH has become so much better over time.

[wight rabbit]

Okay, guys, now come back out and play something we haven't heard this tour...

[thefragile_jake]

Welp. Guitar just went flying...

[noise]

Stage, reassemble!

[gorast]

Please God play While I'm Still Here. That would be fucking awesome.

Fuckin never mind. Good thing I didn't really have any expectations. Hurt's still beautiful.

[Mr.Metheus]

What is everyone chanting?

[thefragile_jake]

Crowd is on FIRE for NIN tonight.

[wight rabbit]

Damn it...

[VampVertigo]

Like a lil encore...

[Mr.Benjamin]

What is everyone chanting?

One more song.

[heroicraptor]

What is everyone chanting?
sounds like "one more song"

[xolotl]

Okay, guys, now come back out and play something we haven't heard this tour...

"Thanks, we've just got one more song. Haven't played this one in awhile. It's called 'Not So Pretty Now.' LET'S GO!"

(Disclaimer: I actually do like NSPN)

[noise]

Cortini's backup vocals on HLAH has become so much better over time.
i really enjoy the whole layer Alessandro adds with synths, pads, percussion.
also, the new pad in Hurt is incredible

[_minus]

I love the extra ambiance that they've given to Hurt this go-around.

[wight rabbit]

Well, that slow-down was pretty cool...

[intothevoid2007]

Trent, you saved the best for last I must admit....BEST LIVE STREAM SO FAR!!!

[wight rabbit]

Okay, this may be the best version of "Hurt" I've seen/heard live.

[thefragile_jake]

Trent really enjoyed himself up there....we really did too. What a great show.

[pigpen]

Well, have a great night everyone! I honestly really do love watching these streams with all of you.. When I can catch them!

What a great show!!

[Mr.Metheus]

That was great! Thanks again to our recorders- I can't wait to watch a higher quality version!

[dragonkal]

Wow. That was definitely one of the hardest-rocking shows I've seen, regardless of band. I cannot WAIT for my Tension dates now...

[LenaMHJBKZ2]

Fantastic show! I can't wait for the arena tour. November will be here with a quickness.

[SM Rollinger]

Well, have a great night everyone! I honestly really do love watching these streams with all of you.. When I can catch them!

What a great show!!
For sure, that was alot of fun, geeking out with everybody here while i watched the stream. Im really psyched for the end of the month!!!

Anyways, im gonna go get some food and play some playstation.

[Volk]

That was a good show, especially once I found the better stream. I just hope the set list gets changed drastically for the full Tension dates.

[thefragile_jake]

Really? It's probably my favorite song from YZ, with The Greater Good and My Violent Heart following closely behind that..
I've always loved Me, I'm Not. But I'm really excited to hear Find My Way soon, which I hope is coming soon!!!!

Shame he didn't play All Time Low. :( Well that's what the Tension tour is for!

Yeah, I'm not too much of a fan of Year Zero as it is and that song I always skipped previously..

[SM Rollinger]

Id love to hear HMIAIH into Happiness into Vessel.

Ok for real now, see y'all later.

[OchoBits]

Was Trent wearing a fucking kilt?

...'cus it actually looked cool.

[skip niklas]

Holy shit what a show! Ally's synth on Survivalism was sick! Sad that this is the last webcast, I've gotten spoiled these last few weeks with all the awesome hd, soundboard quality. Here's hoping they strike a deal with someone *cough*AXStv*cough* to broadcast a night of the Tension tour.

[thefragile_jake]

Oh shit, this IS the last stream. =/

Well, it's been awesome watching these streams with you guys. Thanks for the good times yo.

[dragonkal]

Was Trent wearing a fucking kilt?

...'cus it actually looked cool.

This was a hot debate at my house. It didn't seem to be a kilt per se, perhaps a modified hakama, or some sort of front and back panel added to shorts...

In other words, I have no freaking idea exactly what it was, but I agree, it worked and I sure hope we see more of it!

drop crotch shorts.
NOT a kilt.

Probably rick owens or maldon blake.

[Kyle]

I was one person from the railing extreme stage left. From my angle I'm almost certain I saw Trent behind the screen picking his shorts out of his ass. This was shortly before he sang the line "and I can see things I know I really shouldn't see."

[sick among the pure]

Did you se the black chick with the Mohawk and the nin logo shaved on the side of her head?

She was right behind(slightly off to the side of) me, if you also saw the guy with the mohawk and NIN logo tattooed on his arm.

[dragonkal]

drop crotch shorts.
NOT a kilt.

Probably rick owens or maldon blake.

I agree with that for the past shows, but this sure looked drastically different to us tonight. At certain angles, there seemed to clearly be a relatively separate front and back panel -- a kind of long loincloth over the shorts, as it were. (And no, definitely NOT a kilt, we agree there for sure.)

Not that the stream quality really allows for the kind of evidence we need to truly hash out OMG WHAT WAS HE WEARING but hell, that's never stopped us from our heated thought exercises before! :)

Agreed it looked different- but was probably the same thing he's been wearing for some of these shows. Biggest thing was most likely camera angles that was constantly shifting/zooming or going to a different camera. Kind of looked like drooped down overalls that weren't buttoned up.

[sick among the pure]

I was close enough tonight to say it was more of a "shorts with crotch and ass flap" deal than a kilt.
Also, had fun reading through your convos of tonight's stream. I hope a good quality rip shows up in the Philly tour topic, never been able to watch a pro shot video from any show I've been to.

AND YEAH SOMEWHAT DAMAGED WAS A HOLY FUCK MOMENT

[Kyle]

So where were the rest of you people? I was surrounded by NIN fans who knew every word to every song but I was the only person near me that was awkwardly cheering when those beginning beeps from Somewhat Damaged were playing.

Seriously though... I was near people who were singing along with the first line of Sanctified (which means they've been listening to live NIN or I doubt tey would have recognized it), Copy of A and the other new songs and even the lines we all expect like"you fucking promised me" and "hey motherfucking pig" but are not in the song. And yet I'm the only one getting psyched for Somewhat Damages until he started singing.

[Kyle]

Well, I didn't recognize the beeping at the beginning of the song either. I thought maybe he was breaking out a new track. Did it start like that at the other shows this year?

Also, I was so happy that I wasn't the only one who knew the Trentisms for singing/screaming/clapping. Definitely a crowd of long time fans excited to have him back.

[Krazy]

Well, I didn't recognize the beeping at the beginning of the song either. I thought maybe he was breaking out a new track. Did it start like that at the other shows this year?

Somewhat Damaged has had the same "beeping intro" since the '06 summer tour. Pretty easy to spot once you get hooked to it!!

I haven't heard it from this year but I know it from seeing it at wave goodbye and from the BYIT bonus features.

I was one person from the railing extreme stage left. If you were in that area I didn't hear you. Granted, I'm not hearing much of anything right now.....

and you're right. This was very much a NIN crowd right in front of the stage, which threw me for a loop because everybody else I kept seeing all day were as far from a NIN crowd as you could get. Maybe that's it. Maybe a lot of the other festivals had more alt rock bands so fans of that kind of music stayed for NIN. Here, the people that were here for NIN were the people who braved a whole festival just for NIN (and QOTSA) so they're hardcore fans. Everybody else left. Whatever the reason I was happy to be right in front of the stage with a bunch of fans and no shirtless bros in sight. (There were some shirtless people there but they were more of the "because its so damn hot" type shirtless than "look at my pecs" type shirtless that were all over the place the rest of the day.)

The 1080p stream was really nice. The audio mix finally had the effects on Burn again as well.

[That other guy]

Oh shit, this IS the last stream. =/

Well, it's been awesome watching these streams with you guys. Thanks for the good times yo.


Voodoo or Mountain Oasis ? Possible Live streams???

What the hell happened to "Something I Can Never Have"?

It made one appearance at Outside Lands and was never heard again. It was a damn good version too.

[slave2thewage]

The tour is dead. Long live the tour.

[dlb]

Couldn't catch last nights live stream, but I also would like to thank you guys for the last amazing month. Watching past streams made me chuckle alot while listening to our favorite band. Definitely one of the best times I have had on this board and I hope there will be something like this in the future!

Thanks for the memories, you guys. Now, on to dissect our physical copies of HM and hypothesize about Tension setlists!

[theimage13]

Buried somewhere in here was a great video of Hurt from South Korea (I think) - a wide shot from the audience that showed the lightning in the distance. If that isn't too vague and you think you know what I'm talking about, can you please PM me a link so I don't lose track again? Thank you!!

We're getting a new version of woodstock 94 , coming from another source

[skip niklas]

I was really hoping for a live version of "Everything" last night, it's my 4 year old's new favorite song. Oh well, we'll just have to settle for the album version. Thanks for the memories guys!

[thatguymark]

I missed the second half of the show when it was streamed live, and just caught up. I can't help but think that when TR said there were a "few more hits," during the part of the setlist that is knows as the 'hits' section around these parts, that it was a nod to ETS. Maybe I'm reading too much into this, but we're not exactly posting in a vacuum here. I feel like he has to be aware of at least the general consensus of his fans / this board. At any rate, last night's show was far and above the best of the ones I saw streamed this tour. Now, on to Tension. If only I can avoid spoilers up until the Atlanta show.... (not gonna happen, but I'll try dammit).

[Deepvoid]

So which songs off HM do you think will be played? Obviously, he won't play all of them. I think 7 songs sounds reasonable.

Copy of A
Came Back Haunted
Everything
Satellite
I Would For You
All Time Low
Various Methods of Escape

[Fist Fuck]

I doubt he'll play Copy of A again. It's one of those songs that really profit from the effects, like Echoplex with the drum computer, and I doubt he'll open the show the same way he was doing at the festival shows.

Came Back Haunted
All Time Low
Everything
Satellite
Various Methods of Escape
I Would For You

eventually In Two / While I'm Still Here / Black Noise

Find My Way has gotta be in there just because it's been played. My other Guess is In Two. That makes 9 now so some of these will probably be wrong since I doubt that many tracks would be plugged in along with Eater of Dreams thrown in somewhere.

[Krazy]

I really, really hope 'Copy of a' doesn't get dropped from the set list. By far my favorite song of HM and comes off great live.

This looks about right but I really hope In Two and Running get added as well. Oh and I'm sure Disappointed and Find My Way will find a home in the setlist too.

It's so great live and the opening really works (yes, Trent, it is cool), I just don't think he'll do a copy of a festival show and open the set the same way.

The more new songs, the better. Some With Teeth shows had up to 10 new songs in the setlist and while that drastically changed the feel of a NIN show, it really showed off the new album and HM is an even stronger album.

I think the number of times I've seen Terrible Lie or Pinion -> Terrible Lie open a show would show he really doesn't have any problem repeating an opening. I think it stays for most of the HM cycle of shows.

I e-mailed Mountain Oasis, and they said they had no plans for a stream.
I would say Voodoo is likely, as they have several times in the past, including last year.

[Krazy]

I wonder what's gonna happen at those festivals from a production standpoint. I forgot who it was (Rob or Trent, probably Rob) that said what they had for the Tension arena tour just wouldn't fit in a festival setting (or something to that effect).

I guess they could always bust this recent stuff back out.

I think you can have more stuff rigged to the ceiling in an arena. The rolling carts were really neat but I'm sure it was a pain in the ass for the crew.

Getting back to the setlist, 9 songs from HM could be possible.
Last show in Montreal, they played 28 songs. 6 from YZ and 5 from The Slip, 3 ghosts.
The rest was mostly the usual hits.

If you take out of the 3 ghosts, bring down YZ to 2-3 songs and Slip 1-2, that gives you 9 songs to add. However, this doesn't give you room for more rare songs.

When I signed up to dime, the registrations were closed. I found a trick to keep refreshing the registration page for about 10 mins and it should give you a slot. Not sure of that trick still works though. Worth a try!

Yeah, can someone please, please get this to RITC? I have a fucking 40kbps upload cap (which I can only even use overnight, or else the internet drops to an unusable crawl); downloading that from Dime would destroy my ratio as I could seed for months and never get 10GB uploaded.

I might be able to help -- DIME user with a lotta bandwidth, just unfamiliar with how to get things to the RITC servers. I'll start the DL assuming I can figure out/get help on that part by the time I have it!

It doesn't require motion tracking, doesn't require video, and barely requires a band.

I think you're forgetting the most important effect of the song and the way its produced on stage; starting a massive show without video, without a band, without a mass of instruments, without intelligent lighting (i.e. the effect of nearly having house lighting), and without anything for Trent to really hide behind...and a small little controller with the simplest of acid lines and "boom chk" drum pattern. THEN the story of the band begins as the song gets more elaborate; Alessandro with an op-1/tapedeck/drum pads, Ilan with drum pads and cymbals, Josh playing wild slide guitar strums on a dobro(?), Robin with a midi kb. Then the story of the production begins as the lighting gets more elaborate and the first screens are brought out; it says "hey, this show doesn't run itself...look at these people literally wheeling things into place."

Then a few songs later, just as you settle into them being in front...they start revealing the stage. If anything, it could be necessary to start the show with it or a similar song set up in the same way so as to maintain the effect of building the stage behind the screens. (There's an interview from the 90s where TR talks about studying some lighting design so as to effectively "reveal" the stage and the space in different ways per each song.)

It worked for "Stop Making Sense" and it works for this. It presents the band in a new light (pun intended). It gives more of a "story" to the members, as you can associate what you're seeing to what you're hearing added to the performance by each person being brought out. It gives a story to the production, as it gets slowly more colourful, elaborate, visual, and mobile from one song to the next.

edit: Oh, and everyone seems to go mental over it. One of the most powerful openings to show in a long time. In the recent production video, TR mentions: "I remember thinking, halfway through the first song, 'is this stupid or is this actually cool?'...and I saw everyone's face light up."
