[alfonso99]

"Discord winners should arrive at the Rock Hall at 2pm and proceed to Level 0 (downstairs) to check-in at the guest services counter where they will receive a wrist band. A photo ID will be required and must match the name on the registration list. Discord fans will be escorted to the Foster Theater at 2:30pm. NIN Q&A will begin at 3pm."

Where did you see that?

He also said that the plan hasn't been finalized for certain yet and he needs to make sure it's accurate before he makes an official announcement.

A few questions I would ask if I were lucky enough to be there:

Did you name the tracks on the Quake soundtrack? Or did the id Software guys name them?
Would you consider scoring another video game?
Do you play games anymore these days? If so, what was the last game you really got into?
Will any of the tracks that you initially wrote for Bad Witch and scrapped ever see any kind of release?
What happened with the plans to release the EP trilogy in one package? What did you have in mind for that and why didn't it happen?
Would you consider making another tour documentary like And All That Could Have Been and Beside You in Time?
What was the reason for the Tension DVD/Blu-Ray being cancelled?
Aside from rehearsals with the band, what do you do to prepare for a tour? Anything special to wind down when it's over?
Do you plan on making another release like Deviations for another album? If so, which album is most likely to get that treatment?
Are you still considering releasing the 5.1 deluxe edition of The Fragile someday?
Some of the previously unreleased tracks from The Fragile: Deviations 1 specify that they're instrumentals (The March, Not What is Seems Like, Was it Worth it?, Can I Stay Here?), indicating that there are alternate/original versions of those tracks with recorded vocals. Will we have the pleasure of hearing those someday?
I've noticed that there have been fewer NIN music videos for the last few releases. Has that been an intentional/conscious decision?
Has David Fincher asked you to score The Killer for Netflix? I'm very much looking forward to your next collaboration!
Speaking of collaborations, the tracks you did with HEALTH and Danny Elfman are amazing! Is there another band or artist that you would like to work with?
Do you plan to reschedule the shows that were planned for fall of 2020? Perhaps for 2023? The Midwest needs some love!
How is progress on the next NIN album coming along? Is there anything you can tell us about that and how soon we might be able to hear it?

Got on the guestlist for the Q&A. If possible, I'd like to ask him either for a song request for the Blossom show, or ask what his stance is on platinum tickets on Ticketmaster as well as if NIN would ever go back to personalized tickets by name.

I like your Ticketmaster question I would also add Ticketmaster Resellers - last year's cancelled Cleveland shows sold out and reappeared as Resellers as well as most of the tickets for this year's shows - makes it hard for fans to see them at multiple shows now when you can barely afford scalper tickets for one show

if there is anyone who wants to buy me some merch at this thing? pm me. i’m looking for a shirt but will settle for pants, scarves and totes.

If I was going I'd ask Trent one of these questions:

1) Would you consider releasing another live album slash concert film? Have you lost interest in that kind of release or does the quality and dedication of the NIN fan community in documenting your performances make such a project seem unnecessary?

2) Several interviews from the mid-90s mention a potentially unfinished, seemingly controversial track cut from The Downward Spiral called Just Do It. Numerous references have been dropped to it in recent years (TDS Definitive Edition liner notes, the tracklist for "The Nine Inch Nails album" on Watchmen Vol. 3, the gag Reptile cassingle on nin.com). Was Just Do It completed in any form and if so does it still exist?

3) There was information about an alleged With Teeth demo disc going around that had unreleased tracks called The End, Good Day, and Cover It Up. Cover It Up was supposedly an early version of The Idea Of You from Not The Actual Events. The audio never surfaced. Is this information accurate and if so, do you think this material will ever see the light of day?

Don't even know if he'd want to answer 2 or 3 but that's why I'm curious dammit.

new album when?

I'm most interested in this question! Super curious about those three tracks and I'd love to know if The Idea of You actually originated from a With Teeth-era track that Trent rewrote new lyrics for and recorded new vocals for or if the vocals were recorded back in 2004 (the ending always kinda sounded like a younger Trent, but maybe not). The presence of Dave Grohl really makes this theory/rumor seem all the more possible.

[sweeterthan]

“have you ever signed a baseball? asking for the facebook collectors group. “

[fillow]

Not trying to crush anyone's dreams, but TR ain't going to answer any unreleased material questions, no matter how specific. Best you can get is the generic "There's unfinished stuff from various recording sessions lying around. It wasn't good enough and that's why it was cut/rewritten/etc, end of story" "But Trent, what about Devia--" "Yeah well, you know me."

I think there's a good chance he may tell some funny Al/Ministry/RevCo/1000 Homo DJs story, considering the Cleveland show lineup.

Here's an idea, someone ask him how many shows he actually did with RevCo (and Pigface) or was it just one-offs, and if he sang anything else on these shows that wasn't documented by the bootleg tapes or official releases.

I can get behind this question. Like @fillow said I wouldn't bother asking something about unreleased material, he won't answer it and it would be a waste of your question.

Maybe ask him about future film score projects in development? Or a filmmaker he'd like to work with?

Oh I'm well aware it's a long shot but really, even a coy "no comment" is in of itself a kind of answer! Just suggestions, like I said I won't be there anyway.

Argh I suddenly cannot make it to Cleveland until Saturday, so gotta pass. Hopefully somebody else can take up my old slot.

Wow that sucks. Really sorry to hear that, friend.

[Reaps]

I'd ask him if they fancy scoring the newly announced Blade Runner series. Also Why he called the Fragile 'Deviations 1' which avoids asking for another Deviations..

[buckets of lube]

Wow that sucks. Really sorry to hear that, friend.

It's okay, I was actually one of the people who got to meet the band at one of the shows earlier this year, so I can live without this.

[paul_guyet]

My money is on Atticus or Robin.

Yeah, for some reason, I feel like Atticus is handy with a blade.

RevCo tour is well-documented in the Alternative Press tour diary. Trent was on the whole tour. There are a couple bootlegs that indicate that he only sang on Supernaut, but he may have appeared on stage to do other stuff (guitar?) at various points.

Rob kind of confirmed #3 was real without actually saying it, so I’d be really keen to hear his response to that one.

Looks like the Q&A will be livestreamed on YouTube:

[Bear78]

Seems like you have been open to doing some fun covers the last couple of tours with Digital and Fashion. Any chance Sex Dwarf could make a comeback?

[mfte]

Did the creation/recording of TDTWWA (quiet) come before TDTWWA (album version) ?

I have no doubts that this thread is about to get inundated with requests, but if someone there could pick me up a Pinion shirt in L (#5), I would gladly buy you a shirt as well. Let me know if anyone can help. Thanks!

[BRoswell]

I need that Pinion shirt...for reasons.

[ickyvicky]

What does it say on the back?

[cdm]

Enhanced for your pleasure...

Also after seeing photos in another thread the back of the black shirt has full names printed sideways vertically, in alphabetical order by last name: (L) charlie, alessandro, robin, danny, richard, trent, atticus, ilan, chris https://www.echoingthesound.org/comm...435#post568435

Q for Trent: In the performance of Down In It on May 25, 1994 in London, when Danny Lohner plays synthesizer in the last chorus, he hits that same key twice in succession yet he produces two clearly different tones. I mean, what are we, to believe that this is some sort of a, a magic synth or something?
