Broken played in full, The Perfect Drug played live for the first time ever. What other live holy grails can Trent possibly pull out for this tour?

Yeah if they threw back to Now I'm Nothing leading into Terrible Lie, I'd be complete.
Was there. Still can't believe it was real life. When the intro started I thought it was a joke and expected them to transition into something else.Wow they debuted the PERFECT DRUG live tonight. This tour is gonna be lit. Copped one of those new stone washed Ts on his site in prep for it hehe.
Thread should have resulted in an instant ban.
treznorWe are very excited and proud to be working with @damonlindelof & @HBO on WATCHMEN. (This post has been edited down several times, omitting the parts where I gush with admiration for Damon (including a mandatory 'close friends must watch The Leftovers' stance), and how impactful Watchmen has been on me… Oh yeah, and the part where I confess to reaching out to everyone involved with this series asking them to let us do the music. Trying to play it cool here BUT EXCITED!)

The thread's subtitle is amazing.
I've seen NIN live 4 times in Toronto. All four concerts were great, and one was easily the best concert I've ever been to.
The first was with Death from Above 1979 and Queens of the Stone Age, and Josh Homme was pissed off that the arena had temporarily lost its liquor license.
The second was the Lights Over the Sky of North America tour, and the single greatest concert (of many) I've attended. I still have my presale litho ticket and am glad I got floors.
Third was with Jane's Addiction, who are bad.
The last was Virgin Fest.
They did for the opening show of the tour if I'm not mistaken.26th anniversary of BROKEN today. If they didn't already play it in it's entirety this tour, tonight would have definitely been a great time for it.
Wow... I hope there's a 4K video awaiting us by the end of the tour.

i'm so sad trent did that shitty ticket sale
it's going to be so hard to find a seat in december
Yeah, so I might be wrong but I think (at least for some venues) they eventually opened ticket sales to TicketMaster. I noticed because when I was looking for tickets for one of the Detroit shows (that show being closest to Cleveland) I did come across some on TicketMaster that were pretty far back (I didn't buy those as I decided to go all in on getting something up close). Having said that, They're performing in Irving, Texas on my birthday and they're performing in LA (where my brother lives) on my brother's birthday but the inflated ticket prices for both shows combined with the cost of the flight (flights out of Cleveland to either of those places is pricey) COMBINED with the cost of getting of getting an AirBNB (at least for the Texas show) at best all add up to costs that are really hard for me to justify. Anyway, as for the Detroit shows, I'm going to the show on the 22nd and here's my seats:
I'm so incredibly excited as seeing them live in a small venue like the Fox Theater seems like such a great experience. I remember watching all the videos people were posting back in 2009 of all of the theater shows they were doing and being very envious of those people because of how intimate the show seemed. Oh also, I've warmed up to Bad Witch a little since my previous post. I still think Trent's interviews about the album make it sound like "Old Man Yells At Cloud: The Album" but I've warmed up to it none the less.
No offense, but I can't imagine seeing NIN that close and being in a seated area. I couldn't even stand seeing someone like James Blake in that sort of setting haha.
The show will be awesome though. I'm significantly more hyped for this tour than I have been for any other.
Coolest place I ever saw NIN was at Stubbs BBQ in Austin during the with teeth era. It was like being in someone's backyard with around maybe a thousand people or so. Dresden Dolls opened and that was the only time I've picked up an opening band's album the very next day.So the idea of seeing nin in such a small venue is extremely exciting to me.
Nice, Stubb's is a great venue! Never saw NIN there, would love to though. I did see them at Southpark Meadows back in '95 or so, always liked that venue... now it's a shopping center :/Coolest place I ever saw NIN was at Stubbs BBQ in Austin during the with teeth era. It was like being in someone's backyard with around maybe a thousand people or so. Dresden Dolls opened and that was the only time I've picked up an opening band's album the very next day.
And I got it + all of Broken (minus Pinion). Amazing.Saw the first brooklyn show last night, they were outstanding as usual.
My seat was on the mezzanine but the venue is pretty small and laid out well, pretty much every seat would be good. I'm sure it's amazing to be in the pit there, and probably better sound, but I was still happy. I also like to show up right before they go on, I don't want to spend my whole day waiting for a good spot by the rail.
The peak of the set was I Do Not Want This into Perfect Drug. TPD is instantly one of their best live songs. It could have been a live staple since 1997 lol.
Really hoping for Happiness in Slavery tonight!
thepenguin55 I've had the pleasure of seeing them a bunch since 2000, so these two nights, other than any more possible "never played live before" debuts, I really want to hear Happiness In Slavery and The Perfect Drug this weekend.
