NINE INCH NAILS is by far the most spetacular band that will ever exist. I have seen A Perfect Circle, Marilyn Manson, and Queens of the Stonage, but NIN is the most amazing.
They came onstage, opening with "Pinion." Trent was full of energy, moving about the stage, belting out each song with his powerful voice. During "Getting Smaller" he jumped offstage and he was "just another face in the crowd." The strobe lights danced across the across the faces of every drunken problem child, and I could feel the music in my veins. As "The Line Begins to Blur" began, a smoky colored screen surrounded the stage, and images of death, destruction, the deformed, and animals eating each other overtook the screen. Once "Beside you in Time", the acid song, started, those images tranformed into pulsating, trippy ass designs.
By the end of the show, the guitar was smashed into pieces that scattered across the stage, and the guitarist was raping the amp. When he walked offstage, he tripped over Trent's mic stand, and that made me giggle. From what I can remember, the following songs were played:
All the Love in the World
Getting Smaller
The Hand that Feeds
Right Where it Belongs
The Line Begins to Blur
Beside you in Time
Head Like a Hole
Terrible Lie
Hurt
Closer
March of the Pigs
The Wretched
Suck
No, You Don't
Happiness in Slavery
Pinion
Wish
