Absolutely amazing concert. So much better than the last one I went to in Atlanta back in October. I still haven't regained my voice nor the majority of my strength. so much energy!
Saul Williams was incredible. I totally went in there expecting not to like him at all, but man, was I wrong. I was absolutely blown away by him and would LOVE to see him perform again in the future.
That was the most incredibly perfect setlist, imo. I sat there before the show with my fingers and toes crossed, hoping they'd open with Pilgrimage and Mr Self Destruct. When I heard the chanting from Pilgrimage, I got so excited and started screaming before anyone else around me realized the show was about to start. Fucking amazing way to start. Trent was actually talkative during this show! It was such a shock. And he actually looked like he was enjoying himself and giving his all (something I haven't seen him do at other shows I've been to). Sin was awesome. Sounded like Trent actually nailed the "Through every forest" part. Gave Up freaking rocked. Much respect to the girl singing during Piggy. She was actually pretty good. Did anyone else see Trent having a hard time making it back up on stage after being in the crowd? He just about fell on the poor security guy that was helping to boost him up. Loved the background during EDIETS. Very cool and set it apart from the rest of the effects during other songs. Reptile was absolutely amazing. Even the bf that doesn't really know a lot of NIN music was totally blown away by it. So happy to get to finally hear Deep. That was badass. Nice to see that the lighter incident isn't keeping Trent from performing Hurt anymore. And of course HLAH was a badass closer.
There was just so much energy at that show. Everyone was so into the music, and we were all just feeding off of each other's excitement.
One more thing. Sorry to the people around me who had to put up with my singing/screaming throughout the entire concert. I know I suck, but I couldn't help myself.
