NIN looks very out of place on that lineup.
NIN looks very out of place on that lineup.
So, they're headlining at least one festival this summer. I can't imagine this is a one-off thing. I'd bet over the next few weeks, we'll start seeing similar announcements for different shows. Hey Trent, wanna come to Birmingham? Slossfest isn't a huge festival, but it would be improved immeasurably by your presence. And the venue is an old iron plant. Ya don't get more "industrial" than that. Just sayin. ....
There HAVE to be other dates. Right? RIGHT?
I mean was there ever a band that played only one festival?

There will be other shows. Reznor isn't a one and done kinda guy.

I've been to Randall's Island a few times for festivals. FYI: even if you live in the city, next to a train or bus line, you still have to walk over the bridge to the island. Maybe there'll be shuttles? But I hate that sort of thing. From what I recall parking is costly and driving away is a pain towards the end of the night.
Also, I hope NIN don't cut into the timeslot of A Tribe Called Quest, or the other way around. That would mean I wouldn't get to see the full set of either...
Here's hoping they don't do outside lands. We missed out on a proper tension show because of the damn festival.
But I think we're going to see the full slate of all the usual suspects. Oh well, exciting times are here again!

I think the best thing in the world would be if TR announced that Aaron North has fully recovered and will be a part of the 2017 lineup.
Hot Damn, ladies and gentleman.
i think we can safely say that it's on.
I literally know only like 3 bands from the lineup (including NIN).
This reminds me, did APC announce the rest of their dates yet?
Does anyone think NIN will be able to hit some of late summer Euro fests?

Hopefully he'll do a show in town before or after the festival date like most bands do. 37 year old me refuses to do festivals anymore but for TR why not. Excited! Also this has to be tied to new material correct? I mean he won't tour just to promote the EP there has to be something like a full length LP coming soon.
37 year old me with neuropathy agrees. Not going to festivals.
Thirded. Damn near 37 year old me with chronic pain from compression fractures can only even really stand up for one set.
But i think this OBVIOUSLY means tour and new LP and the whole 9 yards, new NIN era.
I went to Panorama last year. I went on saturday. Headliners were Kendrick Lamar, Suftjan Stevens and The National.
Sstevens played right before Kendrick. Did not go into kendrick's set at all. he got off like 15 mins before Kendrick got on.
Both played a full set as far as I know.

Yeah Made in America was enough for me, not doing another festival. Hopefully another show somewhat close to me happens.
Who do you propose though? We all know Aaron North is not happening, and I don't want a "Pino Palladino of guitar players" to join the line up. A NIN guitarist should be shredding and going crazy.
Maybe Josh will be reinvited, to which I can't make any comments, because I don't know his style of play when he has the spotlight. But personally I want a new face, if we won't get Finck - whom I still dig.
Man, cheapest flight would be over £500, and that's with a huge layover. Guess I'll grab the next one
Richard fucking Patrick.
He can take the mic from TR each night to tell how much he liked being in NIN in 1989-91 and got all inspired and wrote that HMNS song that kickstarted his Filter thing and later he wrote that song Jurassitol that's about his time in Nine Inch Nails and here goesthat songMe I'm Not.
If memory serves before Trent did the festival stuff for Hesitation Marks there were a couple of small shows dotted around to play with set's and stuff. They'll be more dates, although no idea whether that'll be just festival and club shows or full on tours.
Exciting times people, exciting times.
My older brother who I've only met once (he was adopted) lives in Brooklyn, looks like I'm going to this. SO HYPED.
If I remember correctly, this festival was held at the Mets stadium last year, so this is a new location for them.
I can probably put up a couple of people. Hotels here are insane.
