NIN Wiki entry for this show.

First off, he didn't offer anything in regards to the curtain call posting. People started shouting "la mer" during the frail for some strange reason, the pit seemed a little tame, but there were no technical issues I could speak of. I was there to watch in this twilight (I was worried that I didn't have enough time to take the last bus to vancouver for a final exam at noon today) where it seemed I was the only one who knew the lyrics in my immediate vicinity, haha.

Crowd seemed fine to me, everyone where I was was singing along with most of the songs and I was about 15 people deep in the pit. Just outside of where most of the circle pits started.


I also heard the talk of La Mer. I could've sworn he might have played a few bars of La Mer when he started The Frail, then again maybe it was just the placebo affect of those people shouting La Mer.

EDIT: As per the NIN forum La Mer WAS played (partially). So maybe it was the other people who were the experienced fans not you

The show was awesome...... the crowd was pretty good. I was right up front with the other NIN.com pre-sale ticket holders. Great intensity from the band.

Met a few people from ETS as well.

I'm retarded. Outside agenda's and miscalculation made me miss half the show. Walked in during Piggy, straight up to the pit. Made the most of the 2nd half, fucking loved it. 1 positive: MISSED The Frail > Closer = Priceless. They probably would've Saskatooned us after the FU hecklage they would've received from me anyway after that & Seattle. Still a bigtime cocksmoker move I say. The ONLY Fragile song, interrupted by a faux sense of urgency.. --- I know, fuck it! Let's play Closer! -- ... although I don't blame them for systematically assessing Kelowna a bit. I was the only one in proximity near the right rail even jivin during the encore. Nah wait a sec, they don't deserve that benefit of the doubt. Boner of the year.

anyone zippin to Portland and comin straight back???

(It's okay if you don't believe me, but) I admit I was yelling "For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen" when I thought I recognized it, but I kept telling myself I was wrong and confused >< I mean, has this even happened on the other dates? Setlists don't change that much, so when it segued into The Frail, I told myself it was just wishful thinking and that I was mistaken-- Me of little faith...

Here is a couple clips that I took from the show.

Lots of grain, I know
