03/22/2026 Peeled Back
The Peel It Back Tour ended just about a week ago in Sacramento. Thank you for all the tapers and contributors over the past 9 months sending files to the archive. There are a lot of great tapes that have come from this tour and I am glad we can preserve there here. We can probably say with great confidence that TR/AR will be shutting down touring for a few years and that this is the end of this tour cycle. The 'misconstrued' speech from Tulsa making it seem like NIN was done for good is what has been said to some degree since 2009. Lets hope that new NIN material comes about from this break. Maybe even a Nine Inch Noize album! Until then, I'll be adding the backlog of Peel It Back tapes that have been submitted. Hopefully during the summer there will be an update to the NIN Drives for everyone to digest as well.
If you haven't seen, we (mainly TJ) has given fans the ability to login to ninlive via discord! We use this to update the site now, which has been an absolute game changer! But it now allows fans to track what shows they have been to and save recordings they like to their profile to jump back to. Hopefully another feature will be on the horizon that will piggyback off of the 'saved recording' feature! More to come.
Other things to look forward to. I have been working on a collection of cassettes that came in to my possession in the last month that I have been trying to find for almost 20 years. Then there is the Night of Nothing NYC in house Nothing Records VHS tapes that I was able to re-transfer from the original tapes. The soundboard audio from that transfer is already available and it sounds killer. I have just a few more tweaks to the video and it will be ready for all to see. I am so stoked to be able to preserve that in the best quality possible.
As always, I am forever looking for upgrades or recordings that are not available on the archive. If you would like to contribute your recordings, or need help transferring them, please get in contact at info@ninlive.com. Thank you!
