I got to hear most of the songs I wanted, exceptions being Big Comedown and Reptile, but you can't win 'em all. At least I got to see a full set this time around.

pics & video (clips) forthcoming. Tired and sore. Went on at 9:22, finished at 11:25. No Reptile, God Given, or Vessel, but we did get The Great Destroyer. And THE WRETCHED followed The Frail, which was marvelous.

At times I liked Boris. 70% of their set, probably not. For sure the final 5 minutes of the last song with the drummer standing high throwing up the horns with his shirt open - stupid. The 15 minute final song is not an exaggeration. They sounded like Aaron North and Thurston Moore having a feeback-off during a thunderstorm with some indiscernible vocals. I'll have to check out some studio stuff.

Like I said: More tomorrow -- I'm so tired and sore (and I had seats!)

the show was awesome, as always, however the crowd wasnt very great, at least from where i was at. to be clear not EVERYONE in the crowd sucked, before i get my ass chewed out, but a LOT of the crowd did. very tame. a lot of people sitting down, not into it, etc. however trent & the band killed it as always. glad to hear the frail/wretched again... and yeah its too bad they didnt play reptile or down in it or any of the other ones theyve been throwing in here and there, but the set list was at least a little different than the detroit show.

^^ and yeah... im sure someones getting a beating tonight for the flashlight part not working...

now time for the post concert depression sink in...

Ghosts ?
Ghosts ?
Ghosts 19
Ghosts Piggy

The other Ghosts song (before where TBCD should have been) is 31

Otherwise the above setlist is correct (+Pinion). His speech between TBOTE and TGS was shorter than previous shows I've been to on this tour. He introduced the band, thanked us for coming, and that was it. Maybe because last time he was here someone smacked him and he ended Hurt (and the show) early. I've got a video of the speech, if it's any good I'll throw it online. Echoplex wall worked fine, like it was mentioned - erasing the blue wall during Pinion worked for a second at the top left corner, and then quit. Ok, NOW I mean it... more later.

I would agree, alot of the crowd didn't seem into it. A handful of the people seated around me actually left post-Boris before NIN even started playing. I couldn't figure out why in the hell they would do that, but we ended up with 4 or 6 empty seats around us after Boris played.

Maybe they got scared off by that awful feedback war at the end of their set. Good god, that was almost excruciating.

Just got home from the show. Had a blast. I was right in front of Robin, and only had to put up with a few assholes during the show. Hadn't seen the band since the summer of 05, so it was really cool to hear the "new" stuff.

Last Nails show I went to at Van Andel was the one where Trent got hit in the head with the zippo during hurt and we missed the last 3 or so songs. Nice to hear a complete show.

Did anyone else feel like all the band members in Boris were playing different songs their entire set?

Just got home, and I thought the show kicked ass. I was on the rail almost directly in front of Robin but closer to the side of the stage. Got in line a little after 1PM and met some really cool people who I hung out with the whole time. I did think the crowd was a LOT tamer than the Auburn Hills show. But that could have been because I was right in front of Trent for Auburn Hills, and plus this time there were guys behind me protecting me from getting squished. But I didn't see near as many crowd surfers as Auburn Hills although I did see one guy crowd surf during Boris. Judging from other's comments, it probably was tamer and not just my perception of things.

I had a lot better time than Auburn Hills, though. Probably because I didn't feel like I was about to hurl the whole time. I was surprised we got The Wretched again which kicked major ass, and I was really happy to hear The Great Destroyer. I would have liked to have heard God Given, but I wouldn't have given up any song that was played for it. One of the people I met caught Robin's first bottle of water, and another of the people in my group ALMOST caught Trent's first tambourine but lost it to the girl next to her.

We all will be back in the future, for sure. Except maybe my husband because he always seems to get sick right before the concerts and ends up being miserable the whole time. Poor guy. If any of my pictures turn out, I'll post them later.

i was also at the show and thought it kicked ass. didnt really care for the Ghost stuff though, seemed like it killed the energy of the show.

with that said, the crowd seemed incredibly tame. i was standing in the back (getting up in front and being crowded in really isnt my style) and the whole time, i was questioning if there was even a pit up there. i saw so many video cameras and cell phones up there, and saw they were so still, i had to assume there wasnt one.

so, in the end, great show, the set list kicked ass (with the exception of ghosts. its great to listen to around the house and what not, but i just think its terrible to be performed live) and best of all, no heavy metallic objects were thrown on stage this time.

on a side note, i dont think this concert was nearly as loud as it was at Deltaplex when they were here last time. it took me almost 3 days to regain hearing from that one, and im already back to normal from this one.

Have to throw this out there... isn't that place such a dump of a venue? Saw PJ there in 2004 and couldn't believe I was seeing a show in what looked like a high school basketball court!

OH MY GOD! Trent came on the stage on FIRE! He was kicking things around and was full force more than the last few shows I saw this tour. Then, to make thing better they played not only THE WRETCHED, but The Great Destroyer!

Needless to say after seeing 5 shows this tour, I finally got to hear the two songs that I had yet to hear. So I was SUPER happy. The show was amazing and it was 100,000 times better than last night in Hamilton. Though I was front row tonight and I just felt all connected again as I was for the start of the tour in Toronto when I was first row too. From now on, forget the seats I say - front row is where it is at.

I too was in front of Robin and I didn't have to put up with much pushing at all. There was more pushing then what I experienced in Toronto, but not too much more.

I also have to comment on Boris. I enjoyed them a lot more tonight too. The drummer is over the top and hilarious. The main guitar player is really good and I really loved listening to him play. I actually think so far that they are my fav opener for this tour.

The show itself was awesome. I dug Boris, only most everyone nearby didn't, but more on those tools soon enough. My only wish was for LINE or "God Given" but we got TBOTE instead. "The Wretched" was sweet...and I thought I might explode during both "Head Down" and "In This Twilight" because they were so fucking good.

The fucking retards in front of and behind me and my wife took us out of the show a few times, which sucked.

Regarding those behind us: Hey drunken frat boys--NIN is NOT for you. I shit you not, after confronting them a second time, one of them said during the Ghosts portion, "Fuck this gay shit, let's go get some pussy!" I'm not making this up. At least we didn't have to hear them talking loudly, harassing the nice older woman next to us, nor smell their cigarettes which they weren't supposed to be smoking anyway.

Now, to the people in front of us: Don't come to a show already drunk and then drink more! Do you not want to even remember the show? This moron was trying to clap along during MOTP and couldn't keep time because he was so hammered. Go hang out and get wasted at a bar next time, douche drinkers! Also, you were wearing YZ shirts, but were heard wondering aloud "What're these from?" during the songs from that album!

It was truly sad to see and hear the people around us react only for Closer, Hurt, Head Like A Hole, The Hand That Feeds, and Only; while looking dumbfounded and out of place during most of the show. Luckily, the show and the visuals kicked so much ass that we still had a great time despite the douchebaggery.

if your referring to the deltaplex, then yes, the place is a damn dump. i hate going there for anything from concerts to automotive swap meets and everything in between.

Yay, full set this time around, and I got moved up from the cheap seats I bought because (I would guess) they didn't sell very many tickets, so I was pretty much straight back from the stage and only four rows back. The band was great, as always-- it was my 3rd tim seeing them, and this is the best they've ever sounded and performed-- but the crowd WAS pretty tame. I happened to sit in the row behind FOUR people who left early, two of them only halfway through the show, and quite a few who didn't even stand up (then complained that they couldn't see anything, DUH!). The visuals were amazing, even though Trent's nifty flashlight-erasing thing didn't work (at that point, my sister muttered, "Somebody's gonna get their ass chewed . . ."). Best $35 I've ever spent!

EDIT: regarding the setlist, I'm pretty sure that one of the Ghosts songs was 6 Ghosts I.

Two words.

Frickin. Amazing.

Nope, they were 17, 21, 19 & 31. Fantastic show and well worth the drive to get here. Grand Rapids is fecking COLD in November, but no matter. Thanks to all the peeps I talked to -- especially Dingerz for the carpool! And, of course, thank you to NIN for rocking. This is my last show for a while and I'm happy to end the tour on a high note. Aside from "Getting Smaller", I've now seen all the songs I wanted to hear, which is great. Roll on next album/touring cycle!

Great show. Hadn't seen them since With Teeth in '05 in Toledo, and this show blew my mind in seven different directions at once.
It was kind of a shame to see the place so empty (nobody in the upper bowl), and the crowd so tame, but they put on a good show regardless.

I'm not sure how well the Ghosts stuff is suited for their live show, but the visuals are awesome enough for me to like them. That whole video camera/screen projection/giant Trent face thing was awesome, as well. Previously, the Fragility tours were at the top of my list as far as visuals are concerned, but this tour tops that. Hands down.

I got home around 2:15 am and passed out... so i'm writing this now . This was my first nin show with seats and it was awesome! I thought I was going to regret not getting not getting GA again, but nah, I really enjoyed the whole Ghosts set better and Survivalism. I was so suprised when we got The Beginning of the End, The Great Destroyer, and the SA verison of Closer [awesomeness!]. I did enjoy Auburn Hills more, maybe because we got The Big Come Down... I dunno. I recorded a lot of videos, so i'll try to get those up on Youtube soon. Anyway, i'm so excited for Fort Wayne right now!

awesome show! i was so pumped that we got the wretched and the great destroyer- definitely highlights of the show for me. a little bummed we didnt get the big comedown or reptile, but oh well, i saw those in cleveland. definitely worth every penny i spent on tickets, and every minute of the 5 hour drive to and from akron to grand rapids plus the 4 hours of standing in line in the cold.

Just got back from my sisters in GR. This was a fantastic show. Probably my best recording ever. I was standing front of the soundboard dead center and the audio was low from the feed but it came out crystal clear on the recording. I was very happy. My brother and I had pre-sale tickets and we had to scalp a floor seat for my sister outside which we got for very cheap!

The search to get in was ridiculous for me. The old guy frisked me for about a minute! looking inside my shoes and even through my belt buckle!?@ Also around my shirt collar and all I had on was a t-shirt and Jeans?! wtf? my brother and sister got in super fast. It was pretty funny.

To be honest I thought Boris was awful... The distorted guitar for 12 minutes was annoying... At times they sounded good but overall I was not a fan.

When NIN came on I thought there was a lot of energy. I think Trent's voice sounded a lot better than when I saw him earlier this year. The ghosts segment was overall better because the crowd was more quiet this time around during it. I thought Finck was on fire all night! During Echoplex that was the highlight. I can't believe they played "Hurt" last night too, just because of what happened in 06. I thought they would have switched that out for sure with like "Love is Not Enough" or something like that. And not a lot of crowd banter when Trent introduced the band. Oh, and how about during the Warning when the screen was off just a little bit. I took video during that show and will have that up on my site as well. Overall rating wise this was the 2nd best show I have seen this year to Detroit. I took about 500 pictures so I will have those up soon with the audio at my website.
