-
The show was fantastic. Ended up about three behind the rail, which was good enough for me (closest I've seen them so far!).
I hate to think it, but I feel that me having seen streams / videos of most of the previous tour dates took away from the experience for me a bit. It was very, incredibly visually impressive considering they only really used lights, smoke, and small bright LED bars.
Audio at the venue sounded very clean, great lows and highs. There were some low notes during TGD that shook me to my core without sounding muddy.
There was a dude trying to incite a mosh right beside me (short, wearing a wifebeater and rubbing his pits on everyone) - tall older guy next to me told him to cut it the fuck out, which he mostly followed. Thank you mysterious giant man.
Some of the photos I took.
Official photos posted on NIN's Facebook.
A couple of videos that I took (decent video quality / not great audio)
Branches / Bones end + start of Wish (including Trent knocking shit over)
Piggy (Robin's face melting solo)
Not sure what happened with the silver sharpie - all I know is that when it came over to me (#37) it had about zero ink left in it but it looked like it had been used in a silver ink massacre.
Oh and about Tobacco - I love them, seeing them live again was just the cherry on top. I do wish they would focus more on their presentation, it leaves a lot to be desired. The videos that go with their tracks were displayed on screens to the left and right of the stage - they really should get a projector and a screen or something to put behind them.
Most people around me didn't love or hate the Tobacco performance, but I really did enjoy it.
EDIT: Also want to say it was great to meet you @Toadflax! Hope you enjoyed the show.
