The NIN Summer Tour 2018 Spoilers Thread!

[ltrandazzo]

This thread is similar to what we did in 2013 with the Tension tour to post setlist spoilers, videos, and reactions to any new songs that get played tonight and going forward. PLEASE use this thread to post your reactions and STAY THE HELL OUT of the tour journal unless you actually attended the show.

This will be fun! I'll open the thread up once we know the show has started.

[virushopper]

False start?

whoa, totally unexpected. keep us up to date on what’s played next.

[thefragile_jake]

Well looks like Metal opened the show ... does anyone know what followed next?

Very unexpected opener and a song I ALWAYS wanted to catch on the NIN|JA tour.

[thefragile_jake]

Not there unfortunately ... JessicaSarahS was streaming for a bit. :)

Whoa what the hell? Metal opened?!

[hologram parade]

Shocked in a good way, I really really hope that Metal sticks around for a while!

^^^ That too!

I would follow people's uploads on Instagram via here now since it looks like we might not have people helping us report things ...

Sounds like the Beginning of the End was played next.

I saw a clip of Me I’m Not on Instagram

[caca]

And with that, I bid you all a wonderful evening. I shall be avoiding this thread until after Friday night’s show, so as to preserve the element of surprise.

[TheBang]

Already there's a bit of variance on staples, with no Piggy and no Wish.


I think we're getting the H's next.
You'll refer to it as the Holy Trinity, or Triple H, dammit!

[TheBang]

Well, never mind. Wish just played.

[Kyle]

We got HLAH without THTF. Holy crap it's a revolution!!!

[Papagolash]

OMG they played Me, I'm Not! That's the one song that I have always wanted to hear live. I so hope they play it Saturday.

[suprefan]

The question is, whats in the encore. Its gotta be on the setlist and they just didnt play it

[bobbie solo]

I should have kept my whore mouth shut earlier with my "meh" comment. Some solid obscure gems in there, and just a general stirring up of the setlist flow in general. If we see some real diversity in the rest of the Vegas sets, it's safe to say we'll see the same at the US non-festival gigs in the fall (b/c of the similar "multi-night stand in one city" vibe), and hopefully the European/Asian non-festival gigs this summer as well.

[nooneimportant]

The show apparently opened with Pinion/Eater of Dreams. Good to see Pinion is still around, one of my favorite openers of any show by any band.

[Kyle]

The question is, whats in the encore. Its gotta be on the setlist and they just didnt play it

Nope. According to a twitter post from the show it ended with hlah

[Dryalex12]

Question, is this the first time Hurt was never played since it was debuted? Its always been on the setlist right?

[TheBang]

Question, is this the first time Hurt was never played since it was debuted? Its always been on the setlist right?
Nope. Even putting aside short shows, like the Jimmy Kimmel performance, there have been some full shows that haven't had Hurt. I'll look up some examples later if someone else hasn't already.

[JessicaSarahS]

Loved the setlist tonight! :o

[Helpmeiaminhell (is now in hell)]

Question, is this the first time Hurt was never played since it was debuted? Its always been on the setlist right?

The entire 1st half of The Downward Spiral tour (Spring/Summer 94 in USA and Europe) they never played it

[WorzelG]

Question, is this the first time Hurt was never played since it was debuted? Its always been on the setlist right?
They didn’t play Hurt at the Reading festival show in 2013 or the Sonisphere festival 2009 show

[ChipRock]

The cynic in me expects this to be the first and last of the mixed up rarities setlists, but let's hope that's not the case. Either way, lucky old LV.
Personally there's a couple of tracks there that I'd be happy to miss, but on the whole the killer / filler meter is very much in the red. Kind of surprised by the lack of new songs though, but surely they'll turn up as we go along.

Thinking practically about this - we have a tried and tested band, no fancy light shows, and multiple shows in each city coming up - perhaps there's no reason why the whole tour might not be along the same lines. Fingers crossed!

[afors]

What a great setlist. Will be interesting to see what comes out of next two Vegas shows.
Hope this setist sticks around for Meltdown, London. Just 3 shows away now!

[RJK]

They didn't play Hurt as recently as Webster Hall last year.

[suprefan]

Nope. According to a twitter post from the show it ended with hlah

Until theres a pic of the setlist, twitter isnt the end all be all. Even at the first bakersfield show they had an encore on there regardless of it beign played or not.

Well there we go, nothing after.

It's on setlist.fm already
here (https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/nine-inch-nails/2018/the-joint-at-hard-rock-hotel-las-vegas-nv-3ea8ddb.html)

[Knucks]

Was there. Can confirm it opened with a mashup of pinion and Eater of Dreams overlayed. I overheard the bar staff saying the show would start at 9:15. It did. But it ended at 10:55. Its the shortest of all 13 NIN shows I've attended over the years. And there was no encore, no Hurt and no unheard new music. The set list, but I'm sure you're aware:

1 metal
2 me too
3 beginning of the end
4 survivalism
5 March of the Pigs
6 lovers
7 find my way
8 burn
9 god break down the door
10 letting you
11 gave up
12 even deeper
13 i do not want this
14 I'm afraid of Americans
15 less than
16 came back haunted
17 only
18 wish
19 head like a hole

As a long time NIN nerd, this set list delighted me. Eight of the songs I'd never heard live before. Trent said something to the effect that they were playing whatever the fuck they wanted. Rad.

Listening to the songs live, I couldn't help but notice most were about corrupt authority. You know, Trump. Seemed very apres pos. But, here's my gripe:

It was short. Very quick. I even felt some songs were cut short. And there was no encore or new unheard songs. I even consoled some first timers with the fact that they always play an encore; that hurt was coming, but, it never came despite the crowd lingering for 15 minutes or so.

[Knucks]

Oh, Trent does not play sax for GBDTD, but he does croon very well.

[StockAvuryah]

Oh shit "I Do Not Want This", awesome

[elevenism]

I have a feeling the setlists for these next two shows will continue to surprise.

I damn sure wish I was there.

[m0reta]

They didn't play Hurt as recently as Webster Hall last year.

I think you mean Day For Night in Houston. :-D

[nooneimportant]

According to Reddit, Trent said during the show he read online that the fans wanted some deep cuts after Burn then after Came Back Haunted he said "Forgot about that one huh?" I hope he opens the next show with Hurt and says "Haven't done that one in awhile."

In all seriousness, I think a Hurt opener would be pretty damn interesting.

[Kyle]

The three songs that have been played at every NIN show I've been to are wish, march of the pigs, and hurt, and one of them was missing tonight

(honorable mentions go to gave up which was not played at tension and head like a hole which was not played on the Bowie tour)

[sick among the pure]

Posted a fucking long-ass post in the tour journal for tonight, too dead to do anything else. I might have gotten like 3 photos and a short video snippet, too busy enjoying the best setlist of my life.

[tony.parente]

Holy fuck what a setlist 0__0

[Ash512]

This looks a whole lot like we'll be getting short but radically different setlists every night.
Can't be happier :) Glad I'm going to so many of these shows!

[thefragile_jake]

Yeah, this is an awesome set list. My only slight gripe with it would be how heavy Year Zero it is since I don't particularly care for that album's cuts ... but there's a LOT of great stuff there. Hopefully a full video of God Break Down the Door is out there somewhere.

[sweeterthan]

I love the year zero songs being played. Opening with metal. Plus no hurt. Wow. Damn can’t wait to see the next two setlists.

Watching the live setlist updates unfold, I was expecting Hurt then Burning Bright to finish.

Surprised nothing of NTAE made it. But first shows before the tour.. bit of a testing ground.

[botley]

Here's a slightly shakier clip of three songs ("Letting You", "Gave Up", "Even Deeper" aka the 'SHUT UP TALKERS... oh cool, Ilan is singing the Nah-Nahs... OMFG I miss Lisa Fischer' version)

No hurt OR hand that feeds.

Really hoping another TDS deeeeeeeeeeeep cut makes it on the rotation for this tour. Heresy or Ruiner would be so dope.

[SarahConnor]

I'll bet these Vegas shows are a real mix of tracks. The real surprise would be festival sets with high variation in the setlist.
Then I'll bet the variety continues for CBI tour; c'mon, no way they won't mix it up for themselves during a six-night run in Los Angeles.
Here's hoping for a version of "Sin."

I could see some of the rarer ones make it to the festivals. They played a good mix of songs in 2009 on a bunch of festivals.

I couldn't help myself and just committed to getting two. I'll spend the next 3 months rationalizing and making up for it financially. ^^' Hope you can make it happen man!

[center27j]

im gonna be blunt, outside of im afraid of americans and i do not want this that setlist f'ing sucked

[augustobt]

This is simply the best set-list I've seen in a real long time (that's including only active years, btw). Fantatic. Opening with METAL then a YZ treble... this is sick! Plus, no Hurt.

[ryanmcfly]

I liked it more than all of the ones last year (outside of Webster Hall, tough to beat Somewhat Damaged as the opener.) However, the Euro 2014 sets were really dope too.

edit: Also, I could do without Only. Would honestly rather have THTF or Closer.

[bobbie solo]

I hope there is more of a focus on material from all three newer EP's as the summer rolls on. That, and never play Came Back Haunted or Survivalism again. I love the YZ focus, but not the tracks selected.

[Amaro]

Love-Hate that setlist (YZ anything and Only, for a couple of mentions)...but hopefully by what TR said about them playing what they want, setlists this year will be as fluid and colorful as 2009 Wave Goodbye. Those were the days!

[ItsChrisRoss]

Pretty happy with the set list, but I am always eager to see more songs from The Fragile whenever I see them live. A little disappointed that the only Fragile song on there is Even Deeper, but holy cow am I excited to hopefully hear Afraid of Americans!

[witte]

Are the screens normal at the Joint or does this mean they're using it as a stage set up for this tour?

[Helpmeiaminhell (is now in hell)]

1 PHM song is unacceptable.....Hopefully it will be like 09 and just be a revolving door of songs with no set order....

They have almost a month off after Japan, then the AZ shows begin the CaBaI tour in NA. Definitely gives them time to change up the stage setup and re-evaluate set lists.

[Ruined]

Last night's setlist was fucking amazing! Unlike some stating to the contrary, I hope we get similar "deep cut" setlists when the tour resumes this fall.

[ltrandazzo]

Nope. I just thought it would be funny if people started singing it that way since he mumbles the line after saying it in Branches/Bones.

The 2013 thread was called the Tension Tugfest and it was easier back then because there was one overarching tour instead of, like, three. Figured this would be a catch-all.

[Krazy]

And exactly one from The Fragile, and a bit of a snoozer in Even Deeper. They played it during Tension.

There were some cool somgs played (Metal, IDNWT) but a bit heavy on the YZ/TS/HM. Not a fan of any of the Bowie related stuff either.

I wasnt there though, so hope the people that were legit liked it.

[implanted_microchip]

People have complained for years that sets have vecome predictable so last night should make a lot of people happy, that was a totally unexpected crazy night. It felt like they’re taking advantage of having minimal visuals and letting the sets be whatever the fuck they want to play and it’s amazing. Giving a lot of the staples a break is always wonderful because it makes them feel special again when they come back; even just having the pacing of the set messed with makes them more exciting because there’s no feeling of being cued to leave. This band is really on another level and the intensity of last year hasn’t been lost in the downtime at all.

[FULLMETAL]

Are the screens normal at the Joint or does this mean they're using it as a stage set up for this tour?
The screens are normal for The Joint (similar to what festivals & some amphitheaters use for the people far away from the stage).


im gonna be blunt, outside of im afraid of americans and i do not want this that setlist f'ing sucked
I'm guessing you weren't in attendance last night.

Wait so metal was the first song???

There was a Pinion / Eater Of Dreams Intro before Metal.

[Ruined]

Right. I don't know what to call this tour? Is it still Wake up? Is Cold and Black& Infinite in the fall or is this part of that ... help!!!!!!!!!!!

Going strictly by the listed dates for the "Cold and Black and Infinite" tour, that leg doesn't start until the September 13th date in Phoenix, AZ, when JAMC joins as the opener/co-headliner. So, I don't know that there was an official name for the dates prior to the September dates. The metallic litho I saw someone post just listed the venue and date, as well, with no official tour title. Maybe these might be considered warm-up dates, like the handful they did back in 2005?

i despise when bands open with covers, so ridiculous. tool comes to mind, they play 10 song sets and open with a 12 min cover of no quarter.

way too heavy on YZ, came back haunted and only need to fucking disappear....im starting to worry that we're approaching a time when only the last few albums will get heavy play and PHM-TF will be an afterthought.

we need more Nine inch nails
30 songs each night!!!!

Is the only way to make everybody happy
10 classical songs (THTF, Hurt, Head Like a Hole)
10 fan favorites (the big come down, even deeper, la mer, burn)
10 (deeeeeeep cuts...Last, Heresy, Underneath it all, We're in this together and new songs)

I would love to see Last, Heresy, Ruiner live. I think the deepest cut I’ve heard was Eraser a while back when QOTSA opened for them.

Trent, if you are reading this, pencil in Last for October 27th please! Or Ruiner, or Heresy! Fuck it, do all 3! ;);)

OMG they played Me, I'm Not! That's the one song that I have always wanted to hear live. I so hope they play it Saturday.

I can get behind this plan. But wait ... then people will bitch that "it's too long" and that "they have to work the next day"

[afors]

It's kind of interesting this expectation by some for older material only. Seems to be a common theme with fans of artists who have longevity. My example of one such person is Gary Numan who incidentally is appearing with NIN in Montreux this summer (July 9 2018).

A lot of his evidently older fanbase are at gigs and only want to hear stuff from his first three 1980's albums, but he's a creative guy and has 21 studio albums, most of which his fanbase appear to be under appreciative of. However he panders to them by playing lots of new stuff with a few older 1980's 'hit' tracks (including 'Metal' incidentally). You can tell by their reaction that they are not into his newer ones as much (which are more industrial) and prefer the older hits. I tend to be the entire opposite, I much prefer his heavier/industrial more recent material. To me the older stuff can have a tendancy to make him appear like an 80's tribute band a bit, the newer stuff makes him feel like a creative current artist (which he very much still is).

Because of the fan demand for older stuff he toured in 2016 solely with material from his first three albums, but he stated at the gig I was at that “this was the last time” and “he couldn't keep doing this”, and he “wanted to focus on his newer material”. Which I fully understand.

Just wanted to give you all an idea why it's important for an artist with longevity to feel creative/current and have fans appreciate them for what they are producing now and not just demand tracks from the first two albums. Artists evolve and we need to appreciate that they do otherwise they will move away from being that creative before they become just a tribute band of their former selves.

[sick among the pure]

I am all for Trent playing whatever he wants to play at shows. Whether you like the set list or not, it’s going to be a better show because he is going to enjoy it more. Last night was a perfect example.

[Kyle]

I became a Bowie fan (as opposed to a casual fan) from going to the outside tour and hearing a setlist of music I mostly never heard before (it was a few days before outside was even released and half the set was from that and the other half was mostly deep cuts with only under pressure and man who sold the world as "hits" - and one of those is a queen song). So yeah keep playing what you want, Trent. It comes through and some of us appreciate it.

[m0reta]

Personally I'm of the mind the artist should do what they find makes them happy. Most people will like it too and naturally some others won't. We all know you can't please 100% of a grouping 100% of the time. :-) Otherwise who would post here? :-D

[caca]

For anyone who picked up a poster at the Wednesday show, did security let you bring in a tube? If not, do they provide tubes, or are you on your own?

Yeah, I think with only having one show in so far ... there's no way to know exactly how this is going to go. I seriously doubt he'll be ignoring material from PHM - Fragile entirely especially since he also just helped in putting out definitive versions of a lot of those on vinyl recently. I'm sure we'll see more songs pop up in tonight and tomorrow's set list.

Either way, I also am of the opinion that the artist should play what he wants ... I'd much rather hear newer material from Nine Inch Nails live than the same stuff I'm expecting. The only thing that would have even slightly bugged me about that first show was just how Year Zero heavy it was since that's my least favorite NIN record. However, Metal is one of my favorite Nine Inch Nails covers so the whiplash of opening from that to those Year Zero songs would've been crazy to experience live, haha.

Speaking of covers, all of NIN's covers that usually end up in their set ... I adore! Americans, Suck, Physical, Dead Souls, etc. I'm more than okay for them to throw in those. The only thing that I didn't particularly care for last year was covering How to Destroy Angels material.

All in all, this is all just speculation at this point ... I'm just excited to see what tonight and tomorrow brings us. This is always one of the best times to be a Nine Inch Nails fan.

Where's the ticket-bitching thread?

It's pretty fucked up that we had to go through that hellish ticket-buying line, now we also have to put up with ticketbastard's "When the line opens, your page will refresh and you will be randomly assigned a place in line to shop for tickets" bullshit?

It was a pain in the ass, but it worked. Eventually. After it told me I had to use a different device.

[thefragile_jake]

I'm still holding out hope for at least one St. Louis or Missouri date after those Chicago shows ... but I may be shit out of luck, unfortunately.

[Shit Mirror]

Sat through the 'waiting room' countdown on my laptop to select tickets, but it wouldn't let me buy anything, and I got kicked back into the waiting room again. Chrome crashed multiple times, basically Ticketmaster took a big messy shit on my chest. But eventually it worked on my phone.Holy shit. I thought I was taking precautions having both chrome and firefox open, thanks for sharing this!

[Nellyrific]

From what I understand they did not let people in with tubes BUT they were selling tubes at the mercy table and tons of people had them inside the venue.

At that point I made it through the line on my phone and just bought them there. Thanks botley, if it hadn't been for you, I would still be waiting / trying to figure out what was going on.

I did troubleshoot the problem though: But because ticketmaster is basically just a scam, there are 239 cookies being set, most of them are 3rd party cookies. I block 3rd party cookies, as should everyone. I had the foresight to disable adblock, but I didn't consider that ticketmaster would have scammy cookies practices.
I'm not surprised at all that tickermaster's programmers aren't smart enough to check whether the required cookies are being set and inform the user.

After checking out on my phone, I unblocked all cookies in chrome and refreshed the page: it went through without a problem.

Fuck ticketmaster, and fuck physical presales.

2018 has been my 2 worst experiences buying NIN tickets.

I feel like throwing up, I splurged $500 for 2 general admission tickets for King's Theater. I'm glad I got those tickets but it's so fucking expensive that I'm ashamed. Hopefully I end up rich one day and it wont' hurt as much.

While I agree with you I find myself feeling pretty irresponsible buying tickets for two more LA NIN shows while I’m in Vegas for NIN shows. I mean I feel bad about it for about a minute.

That’s exactly what motivates me. I tried to be responsible and only went to two of four Wave Goodbye shows in LA and I still kick myself for it.

[sick among the pure]

You never know when NK's going to nuke us or the country erupts into chaos or Trent decides to stop touring for 5 years again or anything could happen. I've also never regretted buying tickets but have regretted not buying tickets. Hell, I just flew from Buffalo to Vegas and back for ONE show. And it was THE BEST SHOW I'VE BEEN TO.

Buy those tickets.

[otnavuskire]

I've never, in my ticket buying history, regretted buying tickets. I have however, regretting not buying tickets.

This is so true. I just bought a ticket for a show in Los Angeles in October featuring the one night only reunion of one of my favorite bands who have been broken up for eight years. Between the ticket, travel, and lodging, I'm gonna be broke, but if I didn't go, I'd regret it for a long time.

I never feel great after the show. Always really sad that it was over...

That being said, buy the tickets. I regret not going to LITS show in Dallas more than any other show I've missed.

[ItsChrisRoss]

I just rewatched part of the Beside You In Time blu ray and holy fuck it’s got me so pumped for the show I’m going to. Good chance I end up going to both nights in Phoenix.

Watching that DVD reminded me of how tight they were with Jeordie and Freese. Rubin has been great on the kit recently though!

I have to disagree, as in my opinion Aaron's solo for The Big Come Down ruined it. I much prefer Robin's, or the album version, or complete silence... I honestly hated it. I don't remember him being any better or worse for Terrible Lie.

Awww, I was hoping to hear that Wednesday. Hope it stays in rotation in the fall.

Prolly a setlist.fm troll. There were some questionable songs added there earlier in the set too, then deleted.

[lastheardfrom]

The Background World, The Great Destroyer (feat. audio quotes of Trump apparently?) and now Burning Bright.

[nmitchell86]

If there is an "assult set list" it's tonight!

[AThousandDaysBefore]

I never was a fan of the big come down until I Listened the version with Aaron, I thought this is not bad all, after that I listen 2008/2013 versions and now I love that fucking song, I don't hate the Aaron's version , he showed me the way to the light, but I prefer Robin a lot.

I like Aaron but I Loooove Robin
Nine Inch Nails is not the same without Finck

I love the way Aaron played Only, but starfuckers was horrible with him , the rest is ok for me , he is a great guitar player

[nmitchell86]

It looks like they are filming tonight...

[nmitchell86]

TDTWWA... No rehearsal. Fucking epic!!!

[Winter Is Coming]

Very similar set list to the October joint show. Still good tho. Not as good as Wednesday tho.

[TheBang]

It looks like they are filming tonight...
Those are just cameramen for the CC feed inside the Joint. What's broadcast on the big screens on the sides of the stage, as well as on TV's inside the VIP suites.

[thefragile_jake]

Yeah considering how similar to this setlist was to last year's shows, I wonder what tricks Trent might have up his sleeve for tonight.

[suprefan]

I wonder if theyre just running through variations of what they wanna do depending on the venue and setting. Last night is going to be the festival go to, weds is obviously appealing to dedicated fans that want deep cuts. And tonight will maybe be a mix? And playing so many different song just to get the kinks out of the way too.


and yeah the fire alarm went off plus the pa turned off that whole time. We got lucky cause they totally couldve stopped the show and forced everyone to leace.

[frothy_ham]

Not that I didn’t enjoy Friday night’s show, but I kinda sorta definitely feel a little tiny bit like a chump for not going to tonight’s show when I see this set list. We bought the tickets and planned travel when the 13th and 15th were the only shows. Trying not to feel salty because I’ll never not love a NIN show, but GOD DAMN tonight’s set list.

Fuck!

I would love to see the 3 nights
Every concert is perfect in its way

[Swykk]

These set lists are so different. Each night offered something cool.

Because Night Two was essentially the same as Riot Fest so I had already seen it (and I think it might be my favorite set list I’ve seen live), I’d have to say Night Three is my favorite among the three. AoO sounds like a fucking killer!

[augustobt]

Come on, Night Two was just vanilla NIN, fucking awesome but still the regular NIN show you could catch any given day. Nights one and three are there real fucking dope shit. #3 Set-List is simply incredible, the first thing I did when I woke up was search for it and I almost couldn't believe in what I was seeing because it's a near perfect setlist. If only Trent could start really dropping Hurt and favoring something like Right Where it Belongs to close out... but that's just me being too picky, I guess.

Damn, I only hope that everyone saying this is a farewell tour (at least for a long time) is so wrong

[icklekitty]

Right Where it Belongs to close out

OMG. This needs to happen.

[Mike]

Love the variation I'm seeing in all these setlists. Makes me glad I'm going to all three nights in Chicago. Can't fucking wait.
I wish I was going to all 3, but I'm pretty happy about the 27th regardless. Im hoping it will be like this last Vegas show.

[thefragile_jake]

Holy fucking shit. Ahead of Ourselves sounds insane live and I cannot wait to hear a proper version of this track.

That chorus is intense ... it has the potential to be one of my favorite NIN songs of all time.

Out of curiosity, what didn't you like in particular about it? I actually thought it was a pretty good cover as a whole.

The vocals; I just thought the singing wasn't good. Which is odd as Atmosphere and Dead Souls are spot on.

[sweeterthan]

Head like a hole wasn't played last night. Has that ever happened? I feel like its played at every show.

[The Doctor]

First, I’m so happy for everyone who got to experience this amazingness.

But as someone who experienced night 1 and 2, then had to head back home and watch the set list unfold over Twitter, I am filled with jealousy. Still feel incredibly grateful for two fantastic shows this past week, but I’d probably trade both nights to witness this one. I look forward to listening to audio when it surfaces.

[tony.parente]

Honestly the first thing I thought of when I saw what opened was Sarah K wishing for it to be the opener. Good for her lol
