Tour dates are coming thick and fast now, just like me...wait
So the new mailing list tour schedule mentions opening acts but has none listed for Vegas. Any chance there won’t be an opener, or if there is that it’ll be something a little more special than usual?
So they play June 16th in Vegas and June 22nd in London. They probably have to fly into NY before their flight overseas, so maybe a NYC show in between?
^Not a chance. Vegas is billed as the only North American shows of the summer. They're not going to make a lie out of that, but they'll probably play again in the fall/winter.
Totally forgot about that. With my luck, they'll play New York over Labor Day, which is when I'll be in Boston to see Pearl Jam at Fenway.
Yeah, I dunno what the streaming situation will be. I just meant to convey that they are meticulous about filming EVERYTHING. A lot of which never gets released and just goes into the archive. But sometimes there are Blu-ray releases and streaming and YouTube posts and such.
Montreux 2002 was the show where David Bowie played Low in full (ok, one song was missing).
And the proshot of it is circulating.
Just sayin'.
Here is the set list from the 8-20-17 show at The Joint in Las Vegas. If you were to guess which songs will stay for this upcoming tour, which songs will go, and which songs they will be replaced with, what would you guess? (Not which songs you would like to hear but what songs you think you will hear) Obviously there will be at least one or two off the new EP. Mad props to anyone that can guess those songs right.

Quite frankly I'm expecting to see basically the same set in London, and any new tracks or significant variations will be a bonus. I'll never criticise the lack of variation in a Nine Inch Nails set because the show is always supremely good regardless. Playing three shows in a row at LV though... you're bound to see them mixing things up a little bit. Lucky the bastards who get to see 'em all.
For fun speculation though... Nine Inch Nails will be busy at Royal Albert Hall on the 24th while Robert Smith is doing his big final show of Meltdown. So! What are the chances of seeing Bob on stage on the 22nd? And if so, what song might they do? I'm not sure what to suggest, but I will give it some thought.
How about The Idea of You or Not Anymore?
That Riverfest Rockfest ... whatever the hell its called... lineup is being announced on April 30.
I feel like this year's shows are going to have a higher production value, somehow, than last year's "strip everything, let's start from scratch" feeling of I Can't Seem to Wake Up 2017.
It would actually be nice to get six or ten solid presentations of the same or similar-sized show in all these different venues, but that's probably not realistic. It'll likely be stripped down in some spaces, bigger-concept stuff in others.
They keep using promo images from the test shoot/filmed dress rehearsal or whatever it was prior to Bakersfield last year, with the moving video projector thingys, which still we haven't seen complete footage of in real action yet. There was a little bit of them at the Bakersfield show but they decided not to use it for any subsequent ones, I guess; given that the time to perfect it was too limited perhaps...
Maybe this is what they'll pull out at the Royal Albert Hall?

I'm pretty sure most of the photos they've been using to advertise the newly announced shows were taken at RiotFest.
Not this one:
Or this one:
Where did those come from?
//edit
n/m, already covered, I should read first.
I guess our links died. Here are the ones with projector images again, from the last few nin.com mailing list e-blasts.
I was talking about the ones that have been posted on the nin.com front page and facebook with the NIN logo, city, venue, & date added to the image.
