Random NIN Thoughts

[WorzelG]

I was watching the Eyes without a Face cover somebody posted the other day, and in the comments somebody said they used to do Def Leppard covers too, and now I just have this 'urge' to hear Trent do Pour Some Sugar on Me (although I think Hysteria was released too late for this). Dammit, where is more The Urge footage? There must be more of it as that video seemed so well filmed

This track inspires me to put those two tracks on a mixtape, however, so its all good.

Since February 2008, when I first discovered NIN, I don't think I've gone a day without listening to at least one NIN track.

That's normal, right?

Man, our timeline of finding out about NIN matches up, plus we do the same thing... NIN every day or bust, unless I have a fever or something.... then I put on Still. Infact, I did that last week when I had a series of Headaches, I just put heavier emphasis on Still or Ghosts because I couldn't deal with something like Wish.

try since 1999...

that said, since about 2009 my nin-consumption has decreased dramatically. but for about 10 years that was pretty much the case...

Im doing it since 1998, at least one song at day. =)

It does seem that way, but the way he explained the 2013-14 tours was: album finished, contract with label signed, shows offered, world tours. If it is a new album he is working on, I expect it to play out the same way. If he really doesn't want to tour it, I will be really surprised. Unless it is a another collection of Ghosts or something similar. It feels like WG again. Just really don't want NIN/TR to do constant, "this might/will be the last tour" thing plenty of older acts do

In one of the many recent interviews, didn't he mention he wants to try and release a steady output of material instead of falling into the "release every two years" cycle? So it sounds like he's willingly trying to break the "studio/album release/tour" pattern, though of course, if he actually can remains to be seen.

I'd love a few years of solid musical output without shows in between. My bank account balance would love it too.

[Krazy]

I want more tours*. Fuck my bank account.


*not right now or anything, but in the "near future" would be cool

Excluding concerts, I've only met two other Nine Inch Nails fans.

Excluding just physically at concerts, or excluding people you met originally like on ETS and shit too?

[Krazy]

Wow- pretty bizarre realization just now.

We're driving up to Madison to see Slipknot/Korn tonight (DON'T JUDGE!!! Never saw them before and the GF is taking her son for his B day with a friend). It's 20 years to the date from my first NIN show at the same venue, haven't been to this shit hole since and doubt there's been much renovation since the Kohl Center was built here. Maybe I'll have some awesome flashbacks!!!...

Just in general. One classmate I had in college and one coworker.

All other fans I've come across have been at the eight shows I've attended solo.

That was one sexy set list.

Eh. Too few The Fragile tracks.

Yeah, but THTF was not played!!!

got mixed feelings about this Korn/SK show right now, lol.

Haha, was thinking about going to that show just cuz I kinda want to check Korn off the list at some point (have only been a casual fan, I'd say, but still wouldn't mind seeing them live when it's literally 10 mins away). Couldn't find anyone to go with and didn't want to wait in line solo, plus I don't consider myself a big enough Slipknot fan to justify it, so I nixed the idea.

How was the show? Prob would've gone if I had known an ETSer was there to hang with.

Was actually pretty good- I'll give credit where credit is due, from a crowd stand point it was one of the most energetic shows I've ever been to.

Not a huge fan of either band but lean more towards Slipknot. I liked Korn better tonight though, SK came across way "cheesier" than I thought they would (the 2 percussionists on a rotating spring, pyro). Ugh, and I swear to fuck I'm gonna have nightmares of Cory Taylor screaming "Madison"- I swear the fucker said it minimum 200 times. Both bands sounded great- vocals, mix, not too loud, bass response, etc. Smallish arenas are some of the best venues to go to but was surprised at the above-average sound quality.

This was always one of my favorite highlights from Closure. I also enjoyed how a song like I Do Not Want This was also juxtaposed to Trent's playful and flippant side, and seeing him make that shot against the exit sign. Aside from the destruction of that room, I also liked how it kept reminding me of Mr Self Destruct, since it also has the words "I am an exit." in it. In that case, he was certainly an exit for the exit sign.

Anyone remember this fucking thing? http://music.joshmillard.com/2010/06...leward-spiral/

NIN fans are weird.

[Joy Prevention Hotline]

That's two more than me.

Though I sometimes like to imagine that all sorts of people I know are secretly NIN fans.

[Halo Infinity]

It seems like The Fragile, With Teeth and Hesitation Marks seem to help me cope with loneliness and feeling out of place the most so far. I also mean that as a whole from each of them though, as there are lots of songs from any of the other albums that help me cope with those feelings and confused thoughts too. This probably could be subject to change, but that's just how it is with me and those albums as of right now.

How did I miss the implosion of the Tension DVD thread? Haven't seen a thread drown in bilious emanations like that in months.

Wasnt so much an implosion as it just became redundant- resident troll shows up and we reply to his same thread-shitting posts. (I'm as much to blame as anyone)

[Joy Prevention Hotline]

More of a … great collapse?

I'll show myself out.

[sheepdean]

I finally own TDS on vinyl (back to black reissue), very happy

[Charmingly Miserable]

Random NIN narcissism: I wore one of my NIN shirts to last night's Run the Jewels concert. El-P gave it his stamp of approval on IG.

[Pyract]

I made a small place for nin fonts. I know we have plenty of nin font pages out there but mine has a few that are hard to find. I know this isn't all that's out there, let me know if there's any I should add. P.S. I made this in about an hour, marvel at my extraordinary geocities-esque html skills.

The El-P remix of Only is my all time favorite NIN remix. Love that shit.
