Sad that I won't be catching this stream tonight, here's hoping for a decent webrip!
...I should probably post this somewhere else.

I'm about 5 people deep from the front, right in front of the right speaker stack.
Too many people at this damn festival.

Aaah, the show was great! I can't wait to see the stream and upload my pix.

Think I got a nice recording of this one... except for the big drunk dude who was right behind me shouting out slurred, poorly timed, off key, and sometimes just plain incorrect lyricsLuckily he was quiet for most of the show.
Big thanks to @RITCNIN for the equipment hookup!

Just got back and wow, great set and excellent energy. I was amazed that the middle of the crowd (directly in front of the soundboard) was quite empty. Late in the show, people kept pouring in, exclaiming how they couldn't believe how open the view was, from that vantage point. Met some cool people and sang along and/or shouted because, you know, it was a show, we were excited and enjoyed the hell out of it. Most of the crowd in my vicinity was singing along; not sure if it was slurred or not; but, wow, amazing show. I look forward to seeing what people managed to capture/upload from this concert. Glad they played Burn and Something I Can Never Have. Also dug that Trent used the effects mic during burn; really added what was missing from previous performances of that song (for me, at least). Damn, doubt I'll sleep much. Yeah Yeah Yeahs were also amazing! Since I'm not a fan of Phoenix, I was glad I didn't have to wait through their set (as it ran simultaneous to NIN).

I watched the stream and it sounded like he was singing it normally without the effects. In the Korean show recording you can hear the effects perfectly, but not at this show. Not from the stream anyway. It sounded amazing in Korea.Originally Posted by Ruined

Odd, it was definitely notice by my friends and me. We were also struck how quiet, and clear, it (his voice) sounded during Hurt. Trent's whispered lyrics were particularly audible. Thankfully, no random Hurt claps that often occur.
Throbbing Member
I haven't watched the stream, but I suppose it's possible that Outside Lands had different mixes for the P.A. and the stream, respectively, and the vocal distortion in "Burn" was only applied in the former. Different/incorrect effect routing or something.
Throbbing Member
Yeah, I can't speak to that; it's beyond my technical knowledge. BTW, I appreciated the setlist change: I loved that Piggy did not follow "March of the Pigs." Also, I Just want Something I can Never Have straight into Reptile was jarring, in a good way. Seriously, of the 18 shows I've attended, this one was really up there for me. Still digesting. Heh, it was funny how the weather was sunny, most of the day, then got dreary/drizzled once NIN took the stage. It's not unusual for S.F., but, still was cool mood-setting experience. I'm glad I managed to avoid the video (but not audio) recordings of the other festivals, allowing me to know the songs; but, still be surprised by the visuals.

Here's the audio album:

125 Kbps AAC is the original broadcast format. Video is coming soon.

Agreed. I don't care much for Piggy anyhow, and that was probably my favorite performance of SICNH ever. Even my friend, who isn't a NIN fan, was asking me questions about it since he loved it so much. The show was so good. NIN should have done a double headlining spot at OSL. :P

Exactly my thoughts. I'm curious to see exactly what the difference was.
Active Member
@Ruined - I was mostly just joking around about the guy singing. Trying to get a perfect recording without any people on it when packed in with several thousand of them is futile.
Stubby Member
Is there a full setlist out? Did "Disappointed" debut?
Shit brushes skin
Disappointed had actually debuted in Korea on 7/28. You may be thinking of "Everything", which still hasn't debuted.
Active Member
Someone posted a setlist last night. It was either here or the fapping thread. Disappointed was played. They played all 4 HM songs that were previously played.
Throbbing Member
Heh, no worries: Yeah, I can imagine recording, cleanly, in the middle of that sea of humanity would be impossible. As I posted, earlier, the worst is people who are just talking (either on their phone or in general, about random things with their friends) while NIN is playing. That's just...NO! I'm glad that was few and far between during last night's show.
Active Member
Speaking of, I didn't hear a single person shout SHIT during Hurt. Did anyone else? That was a very pleasant surprise.
Stubby Member
Er, duh, yeah, that's what I meant to say. Embarrassing I should make that mistake having posted the abandoned Lollapalooza setlist that had it listed.. :P
Throbbing Member
Agreed; can't remember the last time that occurred during a show (especially a festival of that size). It was great!
@_@
Picture time! The smoke machine was going crazy on the sides and made it difficult to get most of the band.

@JessicaSarahS - what camera are you using for those shots?
edit: flickr says Nikon Coolpix P100
@_@
Yep, that's the one!I <3 my little camera buddy...except it's not so little. :\
Administrator
Do you ever have a problem getting a camera of that size through security?Yep, that's the one!
@_@
Yeah, quite frequently. I'm always prepared to prove that it isn't pro/DSLR. If it's a GA show and I want rail, I get it approved by the house management prior to the doors opening and have them speak to whomever is searching my bag to inform them it's allowed. I've been delayed by a long questioning once, but I won't let it happen again. I've never had trouble at Staples Center and most large festivals though.

If you guys are looking to purchase a camera for shows, I do get similar results with smaller cameras too. These are taken with a Nikon S6300: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jessica...th/8429757347/
And these are with a Nikon S9100: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jessica...7629612224300/
Just have to play around and practice with your configurations to see what works best for the show's lighting. Also, the Nikon S9100 has better video and audio quality than my P100.

Jessica, your pictures are great! Thank you for sharing. I had VIP for Outside Lands and got to the corner of the rail at 1:00 and remained there throughout Saturday. My one semi-complaint is VIP puts you on the right side of the stage and you are farther away then GA but pay more money? It was great being by Robin, but all the shots I have are profile no head on shots. The other issue was the person filming the whole festival was right in front of me the whole time, so I could only see Trent from chest up for most of it. I think he moved right before HLAH... I was thrilled to see your pics and show was beyond amazing!!
