Pointless live speculation

[sheepdean]

I am totally down with NIN songs being played live by HTDA: two NIN songs. La Mer and A Warm Place (Stella Soleil version).

[thelastdisciple]

Hell yeah I'd love to her Q sing on A Warm Place.

[bgalbraith]

I wouldn't be surprised to see something on the order of the final leg of the Wave Goodbye tour. Small to medium venues in a few key cities, either across the country or maybe up the coast.

And guest star Peter Murphy ruining songs with his vocals

But yeah, other than that, sounds like something they'll likely do and something that would be awesome to see.

I would love to see dates in places other than Chicago, LA, and New York.

Come to the Southeast, motherfuckers. I'll give all my money to see HTDA live.

Are we going to have to have that discussion again? :|

Noob question: Which version is A Warm Place (Stella Soleil version)/where can you find it?

So, HTDA will have 13 tracks when they start touring. I wonder if they'll preview LP tracks if they tour before it comes out, or if they'll do covers, or if it'll just be a short, 1 hour set?

Woah awesome, I didn't know there was a copy in lossless!

[gorast]

I'd never heard the story behind the track before. That was really interesting to read.

Malm was such a goddamn cockblocker.

[slave2thewage]

Frankly, reading that story on Bandcamp, I just had a mental image of John Malm screaming "TRENT WILL NEVER WORK WITH YOU" into a cellphone while using Trent's ATM card to withdraw shitloads of money.

13 tracks? I don't believe they will start touring until the LP comes out which would make it 21(?) tracks if I'm figuring everything correctly. When do we think they will announce tour dates? I'm thinking maybe around the time Coachella lineup is announced, mid January.

[sheepdean]

Are we still clinging to the idea that they'll open with festivals? The sound is simply not festival-friendly, at least not the big ones, I feel the Reznor name and the Oscar subtitle should bring enough people for small venues from the get-go.

And we all know that LP in Spring means LP in Winter anyways

I'm not sure what the festival-friendly sound is but I'm guessing that tour scheduling/timing could have something to do with why the LP is being so delayed. Do we have any rumored release date? I'm assuming Spring means Spring, it's just a matter of which year?

[otnavuskire]

In terms of the number of tracks they'll have, even if they start touring before the LP comes out doesn't mean they can't play songs off the LP. I'm sure they'll have plenty of material.

[gorast]

Additional covers beyond the Bryan Ferry one are also likely, even if it's just one or two to diversify the setlist.

[FULLMETAL]

I just want hda_ to cover Thieves in the Temple or something else unexpected.

[FernandoDante]

So, if you had to guess a date for a debut gig in LA, when would it be? Early February?

[witte]

English is not my first language, but this I really understood: they're talking about The Soft Moon tour dates, my friend.

edit:
ow, the message above mine disappeared ha ha ha
smart...

So, when are these tour dates going to appear? They have to be announcing them sometime soon, right?

Whenever Coachella is announced, they'll be able to announce the rest of their dates. (I assume, and I assume.)

Yes, probably safe assumptions. So we should probably know within the next week or two. My guess is they will start with Coachella (mid April), do a quick jaunt around the country and end with Sasquatch (end of May).

Come on, come on, why are they waiting?
Next tuesday starts Coachella's ticket sale. I'm doubting. Desicive for me to make that US trip would be an extra venue gig during that week near or in LA...
Ideal scenario for me: 2 times HTDA and a great festival with a few extra great bands.
