I agree my friend, I second that fuck. Do we have a third so we can bury a place to bury strangers?ultrarealism wrote:Oh and fuck "A Place To Bury Strangers".
Section 114? What row were you? I was in that section B seat 12chasegl wrote:just got home. amazing show. my 2nd nin show, the first being back in 2006 for the show that made part of the BYIT dvd. the crowd was definitely louder/crazier this time around, to me at least. some dude got on stage and ran around during Piggy i think it was, i remember blue graphics on screen and the band was inbetween screens, so i think it was Piggy. Trent said something to the effect of "I don't remember last time I was here in OKC, but i dont remember you all being so crazy". I was in section 114 directly stage left, so i couldn't see all the awesome visuals all the time, but still an amazing show, and i would say i liked this show more than the dvd taping show back in March 2006. but anything show with NIN is great. the opening band delivered some true "total sonic annihilation" like their myspace page says. very loud. i liked them. overall, NIN is awesome and i would definitely pay to see them again. great show. great night. set list was pretty much the same, no The Wretched, bye bye!!
This was my only complaint---I was really looking forward to The Big Comedown.Chino wrote:Had a blast. Great show. Lost my voice in the middle of Survivalism, haha.
Missed out on The Wretched and The Big Comedown, though.
Ha. I'm the one in the brown hard rock cafe t-shirt that asked if I could touch said set-list.leftfield wrote:Great show, my better half managed to get a <slightly abused> setlist. I was sorta worried about the pre-sale seats I got from seeing other people's views but my view was excellent.
Oh and A Place To Bury Strangers impressed me, even the song that sounded like feedback from start to end.
I was hoping for something a bit more unique too, but I was satisfied just to see them perform. In This Twilght was great, and Hurt went without any major interruptions.latty wrote:the show was meh at best. Great display, dissapointing setlist. Nothing will beat fragility 2.0 and the with_teeth 2005 club tour
The opener ended at 8:45 and NIN went on at 9:15.mk_ wrote:Can anyone approximate when nine inch nails took the stage at this show? Thanks.

I was right next to those people, they were so stupid.akm wrote:Secondly, during the Ghosts songs, there was a group of people about 5 rows back in the center that were going, "1,2,3 Go," and then pushing. What the fuck is up with that?
We were in the section close to stage right. When the show ended we decided to watch everything for a bit to avoid the cattle herds on the stairs. I jokingly said to my girlfriend, you should yell at a tech for a setlist, and she did. One of the guys loading up stuff said just a sec and went backstage for one. I was completely blown away that it actually workedpoopoobonanza44 wrote:Dumb question.....where do you manage to get these set lists
This dumbass was in and around our section, he was on the stairs and being hassled by the usher when he decided to take a 10' jump to the floor and ran up a side stage stair the techs use. I laughed when the EMTs followed them all backstage.tekkaman42 wrote:though I'm not sure how that skinny fuck running around on stage got past them ...
Your girlfriend was a short blonde, right?nhale_xhale16 wrote:Just FYI, I was the guy in black faded jeans and a white-T with the girl who wasn't talking much at all.
If you were near Section 104, Row J, seat 5... that was me.thenorthwood wrote:When Josh Freese was onstage for Echoplex tapping those blocks on the light screen for the drum beats, someone yelled out "I'd like to buy a vowel!" I laughed at that one.
Nope, haha. Brunette. I wear wearing a Tool cap off and on, if that helps. We were Section 115, Row G 15 and 16.revisionism wrote:Your girlfriend was a short blonde, right?nhale_xhale16 wrote:Just FYI, I was the guy in black faded jeans and a white-T with the girl who wasn't talking much at all.

Met the two ladies in line who met Josh at the hotel last night, which was really crazy because I had just been telling my friend about that on the drive up.
Lights were amazing, set list was good, though I was disappointed at the lack of Fragile material.
My question at the end of the show was, how do you not play "Lights in the Sky" on the Lights in the Sky tour?? I was positive that at the end of the show, as they were playing the outro to "In This Twilight" and the rest of the band left, that Trent would remain on stage alone to play it; I was wrong and saddened.
Edit: Oh, and I'm glad to see I wasn't the only one that appreciated "A Place to Bury Strangers" somewhat. The music was meh, but when he broke the string off the guitar and started playing the other strings with it, it made me happy. haha

They were trying to get everybody to push up or to the side.
Overall the people at this show were probably the most redneck/meathead-ish that I've been around.
Worst crowd, but one of the best NIN shows.
The visuals were amazing, but the sound could have used a boost. Not loud enough.
Do you have a Mac? If so, you could drag and drop that AIFF file into Garageband and break it up in there. It's kinda time consuming, but you can get decent results with it. I did it yesterday with a Jerry Garcia Band concert I've got on DVD that I've always wanted to put on my iPod.SinKing wrote:i taped this show but it is the first time i used this new digital recorder and cannot figure out how to break up the songs...it is a 2 hour mp3. ideas? it is in my itunes as one 2 hour song.

Make 29 separate tracks out of the big track, save 29 copies of it, delete each of the other 28 tracks other than the one you're working on, and then convert them all to back mp3 after you send it back to iTunes.
I realize that might be kind of a drag to do it that way, but it really does work. If you don't have a Mac, I would more than willing to do it for you, and stream the files back to you through IM, or email them, or snail mail the cd's of them back to you, and I'll pick up the postage.
I'm not real sure how to do that on a pc, but if I can help you in any way, please let me know. I'd LOVE to be able to get a copy of it.
Thanks for taping it!!
After the show, I had to tell a friend who wasn't really familiar with NIN until the concert that Freese really IS human.just_cause wrote:Josh Freese is the shit.

I think someone mentioned he cut his hand on the cage during Only??guildmaster wrote:Did Trent cut his hand at one point? I thought I saw blood towards the middle of the show. No idea what happened.
I *think* it would be possible to stream it to me over an IM connection. I've done that before with larger files, but we'd have to be willing to leave the window open for a while, like overnight or something. How big is the file?SinKing wrote: I do have a mac but have never used garage band before...how do I get you a copy of it to break up as one large mp3?
In June 2006, at Dallas and San Antonio, Brandi let it happen.Brandi would have never let that bs happen.
I think she must have been lying, i drove past at 3:30 and there was no-one there.Satin Worship wrote:I talked to the girl who was one half of the first pair in line, and she said they arrived at 3 a.m.
Had I known you were going to be there I would have given you a hug. Thanks for the big support for nin torrents. jkarma on demonoid. Now if we could only get the bootleg uploaded that would be sweet.nympholept wrote:Thanks for sharing Tybonium!
Any chance of the source of the youtube videos being shared?
I can supply an FTP server for anyone to upload any videos, and then i can upload them to rapidshare/megaupload/torrent/whatever (full credits to the tapers, of course)
Or I can just pay you to send me them on a DVD.
I'm very serious about getting the highest quality available for these shows.
Speaking of which: check your PMs, SinKing!

It's probable that Brandi, like JT, eventually learned from bad experiences - but it happened.I think she must have been lying, i drove past at 3:30 and there was no-one there.Satin Worship wrote:I talked to the girl who was one half of the first pair in line, and she said they arrived at 3 a.m.
I forget how many people were in line when i arrived, but I must say that the the line management was fantastic - everyone was cool, there wasn't anyone "holding a place for 10 people" like the shows i saw in the US in 2006.
And the process of collecting the tickets and just moving the line over a few meters was breathtakingly beautiful.
Of course, musictoday was still full of shit when they said "collect tickets and enter immediately"
They didn't check ID on venue entry, just the tickets - so scalpers are fine to keep scalping.
Speaking about full of shit, kinda stupid of them to put up a "NIN fan club line" sign. There was no-one present who was confused by it, but that's not the point.
The point is that The Spiral, dead as it is, is the "Fan Club", and the line was for "nin.com presale", not "spiral presale" (there were OTHER signs that only said "nin.com presale")
It was a shame about the line mess inside. But JT (I assume he's the tour manager instead of Sully) seems to have learned from it, and is on top of everything now. The houston presale line management was heaven.
In case you can't tell, I really like lines.
A lot of people spend more time in line than they do inside the show - or even driving to the show - so the line experience seems like it should be pretty important, but there's very few line reports in the tour journal, ever.
Although this line wasn't as fun as the next two. (see other show reports in a few days)
Actual concert-wise:
Strangers sounded shit because the sound levels were fucked - I'm glad they finally fixed this in Dallas, they actually sounded good there.
And what is there to say about NIN? It was pretty tight, the lights and screens were a million miles in front of the crap from 2006.
I assume the new light screen is what Trent envisioned back in 2006, so in retrospect I'm not as disappointed by the "cage", since he finally managed to get it right.
It was also great to hear the differences in the new songs thanks to Robin.
Only rocks. Anyone else think the new intro was Robin's idea?
His guitar work at the end was stand-out for me also.
I never understood the overwhelming Robin-love until now. Aaron's cartwheels were fun and all, but <3++ for Robin.
I took hundreds of photos, some of them even look good.
I'll post them later, after i sort through the crap.
I also captured a few "moving pictures" that are accompanied by "moving sound". I'll be torrenting them and not putting them on youtube.
As with everyone else, i have to agree: If you don't have tickets, get them - the production on this tour is awesome.
I'm sure there are plenty of speeling mistakes in this post.
Is this the same one from nintorrents?nympholept wrote:http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-deta ... ?id=210595
christ the internet at this motel sucks.
I'll be using that audio on some of the videos i took -
if anyone else sending me their videos wants the audio replaced, be sure to let me know.
The first one thrown to the left was caught by the guy standing right in front of me. He kinda got trapped in that spot when the show started, was trying to make his way back to his friends but the crowd pushed together and none of us were going anywhere.SinKing wrote:Who caught one of the two tambourines that Trent threw out to the crowd...one to the left side of the stage and one to the right?
