[fishskater]

We've got a group of six, but we won't be able to get there until early evening. Work sucks!

[thefragile_jake]

I'm headed up to the venue now, I won't be there at 8 o'clock but better a little late than never.

We're headed there in about 20 or so minutes. See ya then! Hopefully there's no insane line yet or anything.

[Wolfkiller]

You guys are nuts. If I was alone I'd probably be camping out with you. As it stands, might not be able to get there till around four thirty. Hope everyone had a great show! Third one's a charm, we're getting The Perfect Drug tonight haha. I'll be in a dark grey shirt with FUCK YOUR CLIQUE on the front if anyone cares. Off to breakfast!

[tony.parente]

Just got here, 6 people in line total. I'll be wearing the red N halo 28 shirt, brown hair and glasses. Stop by and say hi...I have an obscene amount of energy shots to give away haha

[L4YER_CAK3]

Just checked in to the hotel. All the way from Chicago! Can't wait!

[AlanMorlock]

I swung by the arena between classes to pick up my tickets. I didn't have time to stop by the folks waiting outside. Hope it stays dry for you guys!

[tony.parente]

21 people in line so far. Have to say I'm a little disappointed.

[ltrandazzo]

Anyone seeing an outdoor merch booth? I'm thinking of swinging by and picking merch up now instead of later.

Nothing yet, but the signs say it'll be at gate b when it happens. I'll post when it goes up

EDIT: as of 230 the merch stand is being set up right outside gate b

[Hodgie]

About an hour out and our group is getting really excited!

[FULLMETAL]

Security update for tapers... looks like hand wave metal detectors at the NIN.com gate.

[tony.parente]

Same posters as the first date, new shirt. Stand by for pics on the merch thread

[Wolfkiller]

I'm feeling good about the perfect drug today.

its gunna happen!

[ericy210]

I kinda thought the holy tambourine would be glowing or something.....

[ltrandazzo]

I'll leave it to others to post the setlist, but the encore was -

The Frail
The Wretched
Echoplex
In This Twilight
While I'm Still Here / Black Noise
Hurt

Fucking fantastic show. Lisa and Sharlotte during The Wretched, oh my GOD. I want them to never leave the live band. So many great songs, super happy to see a lot of great new songs, even though there are still more that I'd like to see. Great crowd and great company for this show.

[L4YER_CAK3]

Amazing show! My voice and hearing are gone!

What was with all the people sitting?! My whole section(103) was the only one standing!

And holy shit, did anyone see the girl in the white tank top in section 116(closest to Josh). She deserves a fucking medal!

Also to the folks worried about the backup singers:
DON'T
They work. They're not cheesy, they're there when they're appropriate and gone when they're not. Put all your fears aside because they really work.

[tony.parente]

Last post.


1. nin.com presale: they go down in the order of the line and take your name to verify you're on the list. From there you get a numbered wristband as shown. From there you are organized by last name - a-m and n-z to get your tickets. After that they bring you inside and organize you by number.

2. The tickets are cool

3. Trent has 3 different color pics, red black and white.

[Wolfkiller]

Echoplex + back up singers = YESSSSSSS.

Yeah, what about her?

[tony.parente]

Yeah, what about her?

Haha I think he's talking about her boobs, because they were all over the place.

[Wolfkiller]

She was quite jumpy.

[thefragile_jake]

I had a blast with everyone tonight. I got there at 9 am with my brother and we had the most fun waiting in line with everyone. People were totally respectful of each other's places and everyone was in incredible spirits.

I'll probably write more about the show at a time where I don't need to go to sleep to get ready for work in the morning...but I will say the show was awesome from being on the rail but the set list was rather lacking in compared to the previous nights. I didn't care for the encore selection really.
