Nine Inch Nails - 2017 Live Tour Discussion - SPOILERS

[snichols]

thank you!!!!

also....

[sick among the pure]

Nice shirt, wonder why Riot got their own.

[gorast]

Wow that encore. Nice to see.

Background World premiere is cool, too. How did they do the end of it? Just the weird glitchy noises before the repeating section?

[SuperNINtendo Chalmers]

Ouch, gotta be the best setlist thus far...oh, well. Chicago's like, the murder capital of America or whatever and I'm fairly mouthy so I probably woulda come back in a bodybag anyhow.

[sick among the pure]

Knew I should have said fuck it, slept at bus stations, and gotten my ass over there on a like 13 hour bus ride.

[xfocalinx]

Nice shirt, wonder why Riot got their own.

Probably because there was time between the last show and riotfest which enabled them to make it.

I'm so exhausted. Chicago pits are always brutal at riotfest.. but I'm happy to report no injuries for me and my girlfriend. Got a pick and managed to snag my first NIN setlist.. OH! And I waved to mariqueen, she waved and gave me a big smile. I'm on cloud 9

[xfocalinx]

Double post cause I'm an idiot.

[richardp]

This sounds fucking terrific live.

[sweeterthan]

This sounds fucking terrific live.

I may have teared up from that. Shaky cam and all...Jeez.

Here's a better quality video. Way less shake:

[Dustinhxc]

That was an amazing show! Sad I didn't see that riot fest shirt.. :/

[Bachy]

That's awesome that this was the live debut for "The Background World." Makes the show all the more special for me.

[Bachy]

I kinda wish they had still done the end loop for "The Background World." Not the whole 7.5 minutes, of course. But draw it out a little bit, similar to what they did with "Black Noise."

[ManBurning]

That setlist is out of this world. Best set of the tour yet. They just keep getting better and better. Glad to see an actual encore played and of course the biggest surprise of the night, The background world! As I was reading the setlist at setlist.fm, I saw that as I was scrolling and I thought it was a troll... my heart skipped a beat when I saw it printed. That is epic.

This is why I love this band. Every now and then he will throw out a surprise like this. I hope he keeps The Background world in the setlist for Aftershock. This totally breathes new life into the show now. I'm super pumped for going to Aftershock now in a few weeks! I can't wait! And TDTWWA in the encore is amazing as well.
I'm going to refrain from listening to the above video(s) of the background world live for now, want to be surprised and hear a live version for myself in person.

Sometimes as the tour goes on and the shows become static I lose interest a bit, but my excitement has come back again tenfold!

Hope Aftershock gets an exclusive t-shirt as well!

Can we all just agree that Atticus being in the band is so effing rad! That guy kicks so much ass and has been TR's right hand man for so long. It's about time that dude is on stage!!!!!

Day For Night in Houston announces next week on Sept 20th.

It makes sense that he's an official member now since he's been in the writing process for years, but I just want Trent to officially confirm Robin as a member because he's very much apart of NIN for me. I've said it before in the past and I'll say it again, anytime I hear guitar in a NIN song I imagine Robin playing it and not Trent or whoever recorded the parts.

While I 100% agree, I don't think Robin is a part of the actual songwriting or recording process, which is the big part of what makes AR part of NIN.
Robin is for sure a staple of the live band. And I am SO GLAD Trent said this is THE LIVE BAND until they get sick of working with him.

But yeah, Robin to me is as much a part of NIN as Atticus, and I also go straight to seeing/thinking about him playing guitar parts (or the backing vocals with his "gremlin voice" as we so lovingly call it).

[Haysey_Draws]

These EP's and video's from the show's have me super excited for a UK show or 2 (my last show was 2014 at the Scala, i did have tickets for the shows at the O2 but didn't end up going thanks to anxiety and a really bad spell with my depression at the time. Hopefully i'll be better placed mentally for any new shows!)

Agreed. After Trent (and now Atticus), Robin is certainly the most vital (and long-standing) member of the band to me, as well. Although, as Sick Among the Pure pointed out, he doesn't usually contribute to the song-writing process.

Has anyone posted a screen cap yet though?

[TheRealNs1]

I'm all about that En Vogue action.

[Kid A]

IT'S REAL

[ManBurning]

Well, I think this explains why there wasn't a proper tour shirt now. There were all these hidden/secret dates that would have been spoiled if there was a proper shirt with dates on it released at the start of the tour. Still a little sad there isn't a tour shirt, but it makes sense as to why there wasn't since so many of these shows were unannounced.
