NIN Live 2022 SPOILERS

[Deacon Blackfire]

Ohhh man, I've been hoping for that one for a very, very long time. If I had heard them soundchecking that from outside the Met's exit doors, I would have spent the whole show crossing my fingers that they bust it out. Could be trolling, like when they put The Perfect Drug on the full setlist for the Open Source Resistance show that was never going to be a complete show, but considering the themes of the song and that Trent just the other day opened a Discord channel on sobriety...

Hoping that you UK fans get a serious treat like that.

[Disassociative]

It's the lyrics to Sunspots

I want so much to believe

If that one makes it in, holy fuck

There appear to by lyrics on a stand to Ilan's left. Zooming in on the lyrics seems to possibly spoil something.

No one on Discord seems to be updating in real time tonight, but people are claiming they played Everything, and saying that the source is someone at the show. No idea if it's true or if they're being trolled and in turn trolling all of us.

[jmtd]

Remember the good old days when people would claim they played TPD

[Swykk]

I fucking hate the Discord.

It’s true, i’ve recorded the show. i’ll get the audio up in the next couple of days

[jmtd]

Well that’s awesome!

[zephyr]

Everything, Discipline and Down in It from the first drips on setlist.fm? That's pretty epic if true.

Holy crap - bring on september baby.

[zephyr]

Looks like a sick set - so, so hyped for the next week of shows.

[Atu]

Alright, so now I wait for them to play Where is Everybody?

[allegate]

this is the spoilers thread, I'm pretty sure you can spoil things.

Still waiting for them to bring out Deep and Eraser (which were apparently soundchecked in April/May)

[Elrickooo]

Please please please come to Australia and play everything. It sounds bloody amazing live. Can’t believe they haven’t played here once since I moved over.

[Alex of scotland]

"Everything " sounded crystal clear live. It was album quality, no distortion, just crisp pop goodness

[botley]

This mad lad recorded most of the show:

Down In It sounded fantastic! Wish they would have done that one in Raleigh.

[Alex of scotland]

There's a cracking video of the "Here we fucking go!" moment on Discord.
Apparently you guys in the rest of the world don't do that.

[acrid avid jam shred]

Woah, that Glasgow setlist is brilliant! It was a great surprise to see that Everything, Down In It, and Discipline were played, they sounded awesome!

[nooneimportant]

Everything sounds as good as I suspected it would back in 2013. It made me happy to see the crowd cheering and bouncing along to it in the video. It works, it always worked, people were just being ridiculous.

[fillow]

Feels like a good time to unearth this classic


https://i.imgur.com/YbLDQSM.png

[Ascender]

Last night's gig was absolutely incredible. Not just the best NIN gig I've been to, but possibly my favourite show I've been to in about 30 years of gig-going.

The setlist was the icing on the cake, but the performance, the energy (from the band and the whole venue) was something I've not seen before. The sound mix was also pristine. It'll take something to beat that. I feel very privileged to have witnessed that. Mind absolutely blown.

[versusreality]

My guess was they'd play Down In It...so cool to see it back!!

[cdm]

It works, it always worked, people were just being ridiculous.

You have to admit, it was a shock to the system at the time. I've come around to the album version but for a while I just couldn't get into it. With that said, had it become a live staple on Tension or subsequent tours I think I'd have appreciated and gotten into it a lot sooner than I did.

[spahn]

Everything live fucking slaps!

[Toadflax]

Man, watching footage of Everything made me happy tear up. Not only am I thrilled it was played, but Trent's styling on the vocals gave the song a whole new life.

I was already pretty sure this was my favorite song on Hesitation Marks, but the joy this brought me pretty much confirms it. :)

I hate to be that guy who says if people don't like something it's because they didn't "get it," but that did seem to be the case to an extent with Everything. People heard the upbeat first verse without hearing the dirty chorus/post-verse/whatever-it-is juxtaposed up against it. They just--for reasons--pictured Trent on a unicorn and dismissed it as a saccharine happy song without ever giving it a second thought. And of course some people just don't like the song, and that's fine, but it felt like there was this whole other layer of dismissal that a bunch of people were too quick to jump on.

I like every song on HM, but Everything is one of the few songs from that album I'll seek out to listen to on its own (as opposed to a lot of the other tracks, which I only really listen to when I play the whole album).

[cdm]

I hate to be that guy who says if people don't like something it's because they didn't "get it," but that did seem to be the case to an extent with Everything.

I think this is accurate. I know that's how I felt initially, and no, I didn't "get it" at first. Thankfully I gave it more thought and came around on it. But a lot of people took it to a different gear and really trashed it savagely. I never felt that was fair, even in my initial indifference to the track.

[sweeterthan]

Everything sounds as good as I suspected it would back in 2013. It made me happy to see the crowd cheering and bouncing along to it in the video. It works, it always worked, people were just being ridiculous.

i never understood why trent let it get to him. we are all our own worst critic i guess. plenty of nin fans love everything. release the video, reznor!

[Disassociative]

Soooooo now that we get Down In It back and Everything finally made an appearance…. #kindaiwantto2022?

[Volband]

Holy shit he even na-na-na'd at the end of Down In It! That's great how much fun he's having.

[jmtd]

You have to admit, it was a shock to the system at the time. I've come around to the album version but for a while I just couldn't get into it. With that said, had it become a live staple on Tension or subsequent tours I think I'd have appreciated and gotten into it a lot sooner than I did.

It was a shock but so was “my violent heart” at YZ time, so was “Discipline” in the slip time…

[cdm]

To me those two were different in that they were released as stand alone tracks prior to the respective albums dropping. That gave them some room to breathe. Everything came out with the body of work and having a bunch of other songs with it made it easier to "hmmmm [>>]", at least in my case.

[Deacon Blackfire]

God damn I love how adventurous this lineup has proven to be with setlists. I was talking with some people back at the Met about how great Discipline is live and how happy I'd be to see that enter the fold again, so seeing that return is very exciting. Same for Down In It, which is so fun and yet intense when it gets performed. Crazy to think the last time I saw either of them was 2009, on the last tour they played them on until now. As for Everything, it may not one of my favorite songs - I always dug the choruses but I find the vocal-music combo of the main verses (the "happy" ones) a bit grating - but NIN performing anything (or Everything!) for the first time ever is awesome as hell, it looks like a blast live, and I'm happy for everyone who was hoping to see it enter the fray and for Trent seeming to find some peace with that song.

Definitely more surprises coming - with the NIN camp itself seeming to tease the potentially mindblowing debut of Sunspots, I guess there's no point in me holding back that I heard them soundchecking Deep and Love Is Not Enough through the doors of the Met waiting for show #2.

[BRoswell]

I guess there's no point in me holding back that I heard them soundchecking Deep.

Ooo, this has me very excited. I've been wanting that one back in the mix for a while. Now give me that revamped version of Ringfinger that I've been dreaming of! (Pretty please?)

As for Everything, glad to see it finally make its debut. It sounds pretty good, especially during the chorus. It'll be interesting to see if it becomes a regular fixture in future setlists or if it sinks into rarity territory.

[trollmanen]

I guess there's no point in me holding back that I heard them soundchecking Deep and Love Is Not Enough through the doors of the Met waiting for show #2.

Deep is one of my favorite NIN tracks, and hearing them play it in 2006 was a real highlight for me. If they had played that in Raleigh, I would have lost my mind! Love Is Not Enough is long overdue for a return, as it's one of those songs that just sounds so much better live.

[Alex of scotland]

Ok. I've heard this at plenty of gigs before. But my wife says shes never heard it. Which suggests to me that its more of a Glasgow thing than an Edinburgh thing (the old Eastside/Westside divide)

Other peoples experiences may vary, but an old DJ friend of mine from Uni used to chant it all the time, and it was particularly common at dance/rave events I went to in the late 90s/early 00s.
Its only in the last 10 years ive heard at Band events.

But i doubt its a thing outside Scotland.

[Ascender]

Yeah, its definitely a West Coast thing.

Someone on Reddit seemed to be getting arsey with Trent for not being able to understand what was being chanted. But up on stage with IEMs in and everything else going on, I'd be amazed if he had understood it.

I didn't realise that's where it came from Alex of scotland, but makes sense. I think I first heard it at a James or maybe an Oasis gig in the early 90s.

[Alex of scotland]

Yeah, its definitely a West Coast thing.

EDIT: She has heard it, she just misheard the video.

But I agree I think it originated out west.

You know what thats probably more accurate.

I was a teenager in the 90's so my earliest gig experiences are local punk gigs, so hearing "Youre a fucking Cunt" would have actually been more likely.
Early 2000s i was more likely found at student unions listening to guest DJ sets. This when I started hearing "Here we fucking go".

Oh, did anyone see anyone selling bootleg t-shirts?

Nope. Quite an unusual start to the set tonight. I'm jealous of those in attendance.

[cdm]

edit: oh, duh, nevermind

[Deacon Blackfire]

During the Lights In The Sky tour they would semi-regularly have The Frail lead into Closer instead of The Wretched, if I recall correctly. Hell, at the Izod Center show in East Rutherford I went to on that tour, they even had The Frail lead into Reptile. In any case, stoked that Love Is Not Enough has officially reentered the fold for the first time since that very tour, in 2008!

They had a lot of fun with The Frail especially in 2007 and 2009 (a to a lesser extent in 2018). The Frail went into Closer, Reptile, The Good Soldier, The Lovers, Metal, I'm Afraid of Americans... pretty sure something else, but very rarely

Wish does sort of have an abrupt ending so I see what you mean. I reckon something like Gave Up would work really well as a set closer. I can’t really think of many NIN songs that are a good closer off the top of my head. Head Like A Hole works well. Happiness In Slavey did back in ‘94 but I think that was down to the chaotic destruction noise jam at the end.

Although in the name of weirdness what about ending it with The Background World with all of its noise loop glory!

[acrid avid jam shred]

Those two Cornwall setlists are so good! Super exciting to see that Love is Not Enough and La Mer were played. I wish I was in the UK right now!

[jmtd]

Wish does sort of have an abrupt ending so I see what you mean.

It was more that I was just primed for wish to be leading into more stuff and wasn’t sure about the gig duration (it was a co headliner mini festival).


Although in the name of weirdness what about ending it with The Background World with all of its noise loop glory!

They’ve ended Hurt at both Eden shows (at least) with a long looping piece, I hope it’s been captured nicely by someone, it was actually nice to zone out/into.

[Atu]

I can’t really think of many NIN songs that are a good closer off the top of my head.

I still believe that following While I'm Still Here/Black Noise with Hurt during the Tension tour was a mistake. Black Noise seemed like an awesome closer.

[sweeterthan]

La Mer was a real surprise.

Incredible set, incredible show. Trent talking about the rainbow has to be my top 'trent speaks' moment.

i love him for exciting about the rainbow. he’s just like me.

I still think In This Twilight from the LITS tour was the best closer. Everybody fading out one by one and waving goodbye was such a great way to end it.

I don't know why they stopped doing that (or playing that song at all, for they matter) after that tour. Hurt doesn't HAVE to be the last song every night!

The Background World would be an incredible closer.

They covered Digital in Berlin 2018, which was unexpected to me. It was like, wait, I know this song... Early JD is also quite difference in sound to Unknown Pleasures and Closer, so it took some time for me to make the connection! :-D

[Erneuert]

What did TR say about the rainbow? And was it before La Mer started or when it concluded?

Really nice to see something pretty happen alongside it since he wrote the song where he intended to kill himself.

[jmtd]

My vote goes to Digital. One of my favourite JD songs and they did it in 2018

I’d totally missed they covered digital, thanks! Going to have to seek that out. Speaking of missing, I managed to miss you BOTH Eden nights, was really hoping to say hello 😢


What did TR say about the rainbow? And was it before La Mer started or when it concluded?-“

It was visible during “la mer” but he commented on the rainbow in “less than” afterwards.

He didn’t say much more than “a fucking rainbow!” In the song, but in “Trent speaks” later he says something about there being two firsts at this show: one, the rainbow, two, I’ll save for you until the recording appears :)

[cahernandez]

I saw Wish close a show once and it wasn’t great, because it felt too much like “ok things are starting to get crazy time!” And then it was over

There will probably be a pro shot video from Hellfest on Thursday/Friday. There is usually always video from the festival and this year seems no different, ARTE Concert is currently streaming and archiving the bands sets on YouTube so keep an eye out.

[botley]

Sunspots!
As was foretold from Kraw's rehearsal photo with the lyrics printed beside Ilan.

Im here for Glastonbury and had already planned a trip to Bath so it wasnt something I was able to cancel, so Im just sitting in my hotel being jealous.

[TinDefacto]

Ya know, when they did "Sanctified" in Boston minus the usual Sunspots tease they did in previous years, I got my hopes up a little bit that this might mean a live debut sometime this tour... and now it's here!!

One of my all-time favorites! LOVE all this With Teeth love we've been getting this tour so far. I wonder if they'll bring back the Hand Covers Bruise/Beside You In Time combo too -- that was such a fantastic pairing.

[FieldOnFire]

Oh my god I can't believe this. Couldn't make Brixton because of the trains and not only do they play The Perfect Drug (which I missed by only doing one night at Eden Project) , they also do the live debut of Sunspots... Absolutely devastated.

Can we ask TR nicely to come back when there isn't an RMT strike?

[K-Rice]

SUNSPOTS!!!! Cant wait till they get back to the states. Planning on catching them at Riot Fest, LTL, and Cleveland.

[scorpiusdiamond]

Was at the show tonight (posted the video on Twitter)

Has Ilan always been that jazzy this tour? There were a few strange rhythms and glitches tonight. Still amazing though… what a set list

So apparently Jacoby Shaddix and Tilda Swinton were also at the show tonight?! (As well as Alan Moulder who Trent mentioned)

Fuuuuuck that song rips live.

[Deacon Blackfire]

These debuts make that back n forth from a few months back doubly hilarious.

omg I have been dying just thinking about it.

So at last they did it. Sunspots has been performed. In-fucking-sane. One of my favorites from an album that is very important to me, the first NIN album to come out after I had become a fan, my gateway album to a new era of NIN live which continues gloriously to this day. I've wanted to see that song live since I first started seeing NIN shows and now it has finally become possible. So grateful to Trent and the band for being so adventurous with setlists now. It's a shame they got Covid in the US but I'm so thankful they recovered and continued to perform as strongly as ever for you fans across the pond. They treated you all very well but I wasn't jealous until this last show, so I'm happy for you lucky folks who got to see it and disappointed for you lot that couldn't make it.

The absolutely legendary quality of Cold And Black And Infinite-onwards continues. Every song this lineup has played together since 2017 is potentially in the cards while at the same time they are going wild busting out songs they had not yet attempted. Every Day is Exactly the Same, Fashion, Heresy, The Line Begins To Blur, Echoplex, Everything, Discipline, Down In It, Love Is Not Enough, Sunspots. And they haven't even pulled out Deep yet.

I remember years ago during a Spiral chat when someone asked Trent if they would ever play Sunspots, We're In This Together, and And All That Could Have Been, and his answer was "yes, maybe, and yes." Now all three of those have been played at some point or another. So very cool. Don't know if we'll ever see WITT on setlists again but with this lineup, don't count anything out.

EDIT: Clinging to an impossible hope for an impromptu New York show as they head back home after Hellfest...

[M1ke]

Holy fucknuggets that setlist is amazing.

[roolfdriht]

I have been incredibly fortunate to see more than my fair share of objectively legendary NIN sets...but I am insanely jealous of these UK setlists!

Still, thrilled for everyone that has gotten to experience them (and gutted for those who've been waylaid by the strikes).

Can't stop thinking about ways to nuke all my responsibilities in September and hit the road...

[FULLMETAL]

Sigh. Seems like this schedule (https://scontent-mia3-2.cdninstagram.com/v/t51.2885-15/288055873_3226306340992373_1020660947148351541_n.j pg?stp=dst-jpg_e15_fr_s1080x1080&_nc_ht=scontent-mia3-2.cdninstagram.com&_nc_cat=105&_nc_ohc=COkcIlMJmLAAX82lLyk&edm=ALQROFkBAAAA&ccb=7-5&ig_cache_key=Mjg2MTkyNDU2NDc0NTgyNzM1MA%3D%3D.2-ccb7-5&oh=00_AT8Hc7gG7-91qt6pi1w9jw-A_9NeHRWtF5Rqjzu20wzbpg&oe=62B9E3DA&_nc_sid=30a2ef) means there's no NIN livestream for Hellfest.

I'm starting to think more and more that's a strong possibility ... with their first show back in the US being Red Rocks ... and 2 nights nonetheless, I can see them putting that rabbit out of the hat again. Also selfishly hoping for it, as I'll be at both shows!

[acrid avid jam shred]

OMG, Sunspots?! So jealous of everyone who got to see it, it sounded absolutely brilliant! Ilan nailed those high vocals! Sunspots has got to be one of my top three most favourite NIN tracks ever, so to see that it's finally been played is extremely awesome. These shows have been packed with so many surprises!

[fillow]

I remember years ago during a Spiral chat when someone asked Trent if they would ever play Sunspots, We're In This Together, and And All That Could Have Been, and his answer was "yes, maybe, and yes."
I'm pretty sure there was 10 Miles High instead of Sunsports in that question.

[Erneuert]

I'm pretty sure there was 10 Miles High instead of Sunsports in that question.

Wasn’t it The Perfect Drug, WITT and AATCHB?

[WadBitch]

Somehow, after 29yrs of listening to this band last night was the first time i got to see them live. You know how sometimes you build things up and then they disappoint? This was the opposite of that. I could not have picked a better personal setlist and when the keyboards started for heresy I lost it! Amazing show

[TheBang]

As of last night, Ilan Rubin has drummed 283 NIN shows, tying Chris Vrenna's (roughly) 283 NIN shows (about 8 of those Chris didn't drum).

[Erneuert]

Speaking of WITT, fillow, how come there was so little live footage of it recorded when it was performed in 2007? It seems like only the OSR show has any decent quality video footage of it. This person edited some together:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mKyxnbjC8KU (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=mKyxnbjC8KU)


With the amount of NIN footage recorded and archived throughout the 90’s, I’m surprised so little of WITT surfaced.

[otnavuskire]

It wasn't as ubiquitous to have a high quality video camera with you everywhere you go back then as it is now. The first iPhone was still a couple months from release at the time. Those were still the days of people holding up lighters at concerts, rather than phones.

[Deacon Blackfire]

I'm pretty sure there was 10 Miles High instead of Sunsports in that question.

I'm not sure about that but I can't find the Q&As archived anywhere to check and make sure. Boy 10 Miles High would be absolutely mind-blowing though, can you imagine that as an encore opener? Chills. That and The New Flesh (in full) are two huge longshots I would die for.

There’s reasonable captures of the Manchester 2007 performance, but I don’t know if they’re on YouTube. I’ll check my archive tomorrow.

But speaking of the OSR show, the quality of the teaser trailer for it is so much higher than the stream capture, it means that’s sitting in the NIN vaults.. unless (and I still hold out hope) someone convinced the stream to fire out at a higher quality then the circulating copy and it’ll surface one day

[fillow]

Somewhere deep in the vaults of some Portuguese tv channel there is a full proshot recording of debut performance of WITT. We only got to see/hear about 30 sec of it in the news coverage

[Toadflax]

So. What's our official list of songs with vocals NIN *reasonably* has yet to play?

As much as we'd love to hear a Leaving Hope or a Zoo Station, I'm talking songs with vocals that also aren't super obscure (largely just songs from albums).

Looking at the NINWiki page, I think this is the full list of what I'm calling "normal songs," aka fairly standard songs that should translate perfectly well to a live environment:

Where Is Everybody?
I'm Looking Forward To Joining You, Finally
Underneath It All
My Violent Heart
Zero-Sum
Demon Seed
The Idea Of You
Not Anymore

And then there's the extended Fragile stuff, which absolutely could make an appearance, but which I'd also put lower on the totem pole in terms of my expectations:

10 Miles High
+Appendage
The New Flesh

I think all that's left then is Purest Feeling, Memorabilia, and Zoo Station, which like I said at the start, are obscure enough that I can't imagine Trent has ever seriously considered them.

We could open a whole can of worms about instrumental stuff, as I'm sure there's a bunch we'd love to hear, especially anything from Still, but I thought it would be fun to make a focused list like the 8 above to see what's left that could most reasonably make an appearance in the future.

I've said it before, but with the growing popularity of bands performing albums in full, I think it's not impossible for us to one day see a tour of The Fragile in its entirety. They could bring Mike Garson along and play the full version (i.e. with the vinyl/cassette tracks), and we could all die happy.

[ryanmcfly]

I would love for A Minute to Breathe to get played. Underrated track that I forgot about until it came on shuffle today.

[xolotl]

lol, listening to the Manchester show right now, and super amused at the audience wresting control of EDIETS from the band during the fade-out quiet bit. That'll teach ya to subvert expectations, Trent! :D

[Toadflax]

I just watched that on YouTube! You can tell Trent was taken aback and moved by the whole thing. To me, a moment like that is more surprising and exciting than getting to hear a song they've never played before!

[icklekitty]

The audience taking over/chanting is fairly usual for a NIN show at the Manchester Apollo. Vivid memories of the “don’t you” part of starfuckers going the same way.

[fillow]

^^There was a UK gig from 2007 (I think) where TR commented something like "come on, you can do better, I've heard your football chants"

[TinDefacto]

I can see most of the songs NIN hasn't played yet being difficult to pull off -- I mean, the insane samples that Underneath It All is built over would mean there's not much of the song that could be done live, for instance -- but some, like Not Anymore, The Idea of You, and Where Is Everybody seem like they'd be relatively straightforward, so I'm curious as to why those have never made an appearance.

As for I'm Looking Forward to Joining You, Finally, I feel like the strange percussion of that song meant that the time we were most likely to get it would have been during the Ghosts sections of the Lights in the Sky tour. (Getting that with standup bass instead of Ghosts Piggy from time to time would have been awesome.)

[Chuck]

I assume that I'm Looking Forward... hasn't been played due to the emotional and personal nature of the lyrics, rather than the challenge of actually performing it. I think it might finally appear when we get an 'unplugged'/Still-style tour which I believe/hope might happen at some point in the next decade or so... Or of course if there was a full Fragile mini-tour.

[gorny540]

Just have to assume any un-played Fragile stuff on this year's tour will be addressed when they do a Fragile 25 Year Anniversary Tour in Fall of 2024

[Toadflax]

I assume that I'm Looking Forward... hasn't been played due to the emotional and personal nature of the lyrics, rather than the challenge of actually performing it.

Yeah, my assumption has always been that it's a personal song and not one he wants to revisit. It's also a slower song, which means you'd have to find the right spot in a set for it.

It's a shame they got Covid in the US but I'm so thankful they recovered and continued to perform as strongly as ever for you fans across the pond.

The didn't get Covid, they cancelled the US tour so they and anybody attending *wouldn't* get Covid.

[otnavuskire]

He's talking about this year. The band got COVID at the end of the spring US shows, but luckily recovered in time for the UK shows.

Has there been any sign of Hellfest being streamed?

[otnavuskire]

Has there been any sign of Hellfest being streamed?

Full sets of pretty much all the major bands there so far are already on youtube, so it's possible. But it's also possible NIN has it in their contract that their set doesn't get streamed. Remains to be seen.

[FULLMETAL]

No stream based on ARTE/Hellfest's social media update:#1379 (https://www.echoingthesound.org/community/threads/6381-NIN-Live-2022-SPOILERS?p=563484#post563484)

Really did not expect them to perform with Health, even though I knew Health was there. They've passed on similar opportunities with other bands so many times in the past. Awesome that they didn't pass this time!

[Patrick_Nicholas]

I think they should rehearse a just-NIN version of the song, with Robin and/or Ilan singing Jake's parts. It's pretty much the only thing (besides the two Ghosts albums) that NIN has released since the last tour, so it would probably help drum up some interest in the upcoming US shows to make it a little less C&B&I 2.0 if we don't get any new music by then, now that they've warmed up enough to take some new risks for the UK tour.

[sonic_discord]

I'm glad they were able to perform the live debut with HEALTH (and it sounded awesome despite the mistake), but I agree – it should make its way into their regular repertoire. I know I'd love to see it!

UK tour's over brah. Couldn't possibly have been more interesting, what with three live debuts in the last two weeks.

But, I agree that a NIN-only version could be very cool. I love the song.

[Patrick_Nicholas]

I think I'm bad at wording things sometimes; I meant to say that they did take some new risks after having warmed up with the first round of US shows (which themselves, after the first show or two, brought back some songs that weren't played in ages). :D

But yeah, I'm excited to see what they might do for the second round of US shows later this year.

[scorpiusdiamond]

I think the HEALTH vocals are too unique and too HEALTH to do without them. So cool to hear them side by side like that.

Alessandro could do them justice. Ever heard his stuff in Sonoio? I'm guessing he might not want to do that though, based on his decision to shelve Sonoio.

[Deacon Blackfire]

Sounded like Isn't Everyone was really cool live. Wasn't always a huge fan of Health but I think that's a great song and it seems to have translated very well. Maybe one day down the road they do True with Danny Elfman too!

Feeling a little sad that there seem to be no tour dates until September. Looking at the new setlists was like one of the few bits of recurrent good news I had left at this point.

Well, I splurged a little on sec 104 row A... front row unobstructed view... Would have gone for GA PIT but they are doing seating on the floor (lame.) Sooooo..... slightly elevated and no giants to block my view. dropped like $450 which is above the average seat cost.

Ya know it's really easy and only a 5 or so hour drive to do a STL show on the Friday or Saturday before Vetsaid. Just saying,lol. Or even closer would be Indy. I'd gladly hit one or the other or both on the way,lol. I can wish right? Oh hell let's just plot the mini tour, Dallas ,Tulsa , KC, STL , Indy, Vetsaid, give the Midwest some love guys.

NYC (Been played 6 times since STLs last show)/LA (8 times since STL)/Chicago (5 times since last STL show) has to get 4 more shows each before they ever think of rolling into St. Louis. I don't think it's ever going to happen again.

[sonic_discord]

I know I've mentioned this somewhere before, but they haven't been to Minnesota since Sep. 28, 2013 either. I'm still holding out hope that they eventually re-schedule those two back-to-back shows at The Armory in Minneapolis that were supposed to happen in 2020 before COVID fucked everything up. It's a badass venue and I would LOVE to see them there! I've already seen A Perfect Circle, Alice in Chains, Mastodon, Ghost, Judas Priest, and CHVRCHES there.

I've only been to Aragon twice (nights 2 & 3 in 2018), but they were two of the best shows I've ever been to! I'd go back in a heartbeat. I've gone to Chicago a TON in the last 4 years, though, so it would be nice to have them come closer.

What happened to Lights Under the Sky in Iowa?

[sick among the pure]

They haven't been to Wisconsin since 2006. BACK OF THE LINE, MN!

Last time Buffalo saw them was 99. Can't say "NeW yOrK" because the city gets them all the time.

That's close to Toronto, no? They were in Toronto in 2014, but that's like Chicago to the entire state of Wisconsin.

I was at night 2 and it was the best concert I have ever been to/will ever go to.

Sin for the first time in 9 years, first performance of AATCHB. Some of my favorite songs finally, The Becoming, The Great Destroyer, Burn and my all time favorite NIN song Happiness in Slavery, a song that had been retired and I never thought would be played again live. Best show ever. It would be like a 15 out of 10 if I had to rate it

Does anyone know if they’re bringing back unique prints/artists for these shows? Just trying to determine if I need to line up early for foils and such or if it is just going to be the one plain poster.

The non-festival shows had venue specific posters. They were fairly similar from one venue to the next, but still unique. No variants though. All designed by Kraw.

they just announced on discord that more santa barbara tickets are available.

I saw and was able to get a GA at face value! Very excited as the 2009 SB show remains one of my favorites, due in no small part to me being able to take this photo:

Frustratingly, it looks like I'll be seeing NIN for my 24th to 29th time barring any surprises. I have to get to another show to make it a clean 30!

Daaayum!! I'm seeing them for my 10th, 11th, and 12th time over the next 10 days, but now those feel like rookie numbers, haha! I'm still VERY excited!

[thefragile_jake]

Heck this weekend is only 6 and 7 for me since 2005, haha.

I do indeed! That's how I know my soon-to-be-almost-30 shows is only so-so. When you click on Members and sort by # Concerts Seen Live, there are something like 100 members with more than 30 shows under their belts.

Well louder than life just posted the set times and NIN is down for 115 minutes, that would be the longest they have played since the tension tour I believe

[Erneuert]

Night 1 - The Fragile left
Night 2 - The Fragile right

Pretty please.

You people who have seen dozens of shows have WAY more money than me. :p

Also, there's no way I'd go see the same set list a bunch of times.

I AM lucky enough to have seen my other favorite band 100ish times, but that's because they're from Dallas where they played constantly before AND AFTER they got their major label deal, they never ever played the same set, and I've been on the guest list since I was 13. That all slowed down when frontman moved to LA and I moved to the Great High Plains, though.

Seeing multiple shows on THESE tours makes sense, of course, but now we're back to the money thing.

I DO love fans like you guys, though. It's fucking heartwarming, and I know it's a family reunion.
One of those recent Rush documentaries was about their relationship with their fans, and there were SO many people who had been to HUNDREDS of shows.
NIN have a similar thing: it's not as big as it was with Rush, or Phish, but it's something special for sure.

Really really wish I was at Red Rocks this year.

[thefragile_jake]

Adding mine too! Looking forward to adding two more nights to this list!

I don't make that much money, I just save it for the things I really love to do, and there's not much I love to do more than go to concerts. I'd be happy to see the exact same NIN set night after night if I could afford it, although usually I can only manage to do a couple shows of a tour. The great thing about seeing the more static setlist shows multiple times, is they usually have visuals, so that gives you a chance to see the show up close and take in the energy of the band, and then see it from further away to more fully absorb the visuals.

[Toadflax]

You... you've seen the setlists the past couple of years, right? The fact that you never know what you're going to get is what makes going to multiple shows so fun (as opposed to something like Tension where I agree going to multiple shows would have had diminishing returns). But in 2018, I went to all six shows at the Palladium in LA and managed to be surprised every single night.

[TheBang]

They played over 2 hours at some of the Palladium shows at the end of the 2018 run

[Erneuert]

What time does the Red Rocks show start? I think it’s just after 5pm there now as of this posting.

somebody doesnt know that variance exists outside of jam bands. Lights In the Sky had to be the same cause of what it was but nobody cared that much because of how incredible the show was. Anyway. 30 and beyond in the next week.

What? What do you mean by that? I'm not sure what you're getting at. Are you talking about ME? I REALLY think you misunderstood the entire jist of what I was saying.
If you ARE, dude, I've seen NIN MANY times over 28 years: just not 20 or 50 or 200. I've never had enough money.
And I don't listen to jam bands. :p in fact, I feel slightly insulted by that insinuation. :p

I was at both red rocks shows last time, and I'd have been there THIS time, too, if I didn't have to spend all the money currently available to me on cool shit like this incurable autoimmune disease and chronic epilepsy.
I'm not sure what I said to prompt that response. I certainly didn't intend to offend you, or anyone.

Fuuuuck yes, i'm quite aware. That's why I loved the two nites at RR, and the live debut of TPD, and why it breaks my goddamn heart that I'm not in Denver NOW, especially after seeing the setlist for nite one. There's even a song on there I've yet to see live: aatchb. That's why I said "multiple shows, of course, make sense for THESE tours, but blah blah blah money."
All SIX shows? Holy god that would have been amazing. I've watched fillow's dope ass edits. Oh. Also, for the record, there haven't BEEN any shows in the past couple of years. Did you mean the past few MONTHS? ;) But, no, I haven't forgotten C&B&I, which kicked off FOUR FUVKING YEARS AGO, which, JESUS that's terrifying.

@otnavuskire (https://www.echoingthesound.org/community/member.php?u=212) , To be clear, I don't make ANY money, as I am physically unable to work, now, nor do i still live in dallas, where ONE of my friends would get me a seat. I also have no car.
These days, I get to ask my mommy to pleeeeeease take us to Denver to see The Nine Inch Nails, which invariably turns into a big ass, 2-3 week thing that costs 8 or 9k, as my brother and his kids are there, now, and THEY all wanna be at the hotel, too.
And we already did that once this year. I got to see Old 97s at least, for the hundred and somethingth time. I'm afraid they're almost done.
This was NOT what I imagined 42 would be like when I was a kid, though :(
Re: static setlists, I feel you. I saw FDTS twice, wherein the set was EXACTLY the same, and I didn't even notice, honestly, being 14 and just UTTERLY obsessed.

So I sure hope y'all filmed Red Rocks One with your fancy telephones.
And was the lighting the same this time?

Edit: The only thing that scares me about these pure fan service set lists is that it makes me worried that they're preparing for the BIG wave goodbye.
