NIN fucking kicked my ass....and I got a drum stick
Grand Pontiff
Uhhgggg... Too sore to type. I can safely say that I feel thoroughly destroyed!

Energy in the crowd was great and trent seemed almost downright cheery, even cracking a couple jokes. Not so cheery that he didn't give an incredibly intense performance though. I have no fucking clue about the setlist but they played most of the same songs as the earlier shows.

I liked the Dresden Dolls alot and they have a great charisma/stage presence. That said, I think they have a little room to grow musically. Some of the songs kind of dragged on and others seemed repetitious.

Must try and recover for tommorrow. I need a sensu bean.
Bricklayer
Great show...after hearing "Burn" live, I can die a happy man. Too sleepy and too sore to type more, but I can't wait to do it all again tomorrow.
Master of the Ninth Arch
Fucking kick ass show! As been said at some of the other shows, tonights show was much tighter then Reno. The band is definitely getting in their groove. The highlight of the night would have to be 'Hurt'. Trent didn't even need to sing it, the whole crowd was singing it, and it was as though eveyone was singing it from their souls. I know, that sounds dumb, but seriously, it was a powerful moment. As Trent said before it's a powerful song, and you could feel it tonight! Trent was in a GREAT mood, and was saying how "everything was good". "Got a new CD out" then "now I'm going to play something that's about NOT feeling good." and he left the mic for a moment and came back and said "I know that doesn't really narrow it down much". They then proceeded to play 'Burn'.

I got some good pics while I was up close (2 songs, I couldn't take it, guess I'm getting too old) but they were on a disposable so I'll check them out Thurs and share if they turn out good.

Don't recall the set list exactly but they did play 'Suck' and 'No You Don't' which I don't remember seeing on some of the other shows. Other than that, it was similar to the other shows; love is not enough, march of the pigs, reptile (I believe), the hand that feeds, piggy, with-a teeth-a, home (amazing!), even deeper, the line begins to blur, starfuckers inc., head like a hole and a few others I'm too tired to remember at the moment.

Dresden Dolls were awesome! That drummer was the shit!

Can't wait till day 2!!

**Edit** They played No You Don't in Reno, and I was even fucking there. Must not have been as good, or a result of my poor memory :)
Master of the Ninth Arch
Oh yeah. Hung out by the busses after the show, but no Trent. :-( But I DID get my picture taken with Leo!! He was very cool.
Bricklayer
Great show! Lots of energy, even from Jeordie. Could have and should have been much much louder. My ears are barley ringing and they should be bleeding. It's Nine Inch Nails for Christ Sake! "Burn" was great, as was all of the new stuff. Lighting, incredible. Good Times. Wish I could do it again tomorrow. Oh wait...
Master of the Ninth Arch
I am so destroyed i can hardly think right now! and sore as hell, too! they opened with "Love is Not Enough" and i'm going to have to pick my brain to remember the set list, ooh it sucks to type right now...i stayed at the front center right all night about 3 - 4 from the rail. i could see ok but all these tall guys were in front - i took some pics with a disposable camera i'm not sure how good they will be since it was hard to keep still - if they come out good i'll post them. Rob Sheridan was video taping again, and i saw Leo for a few but then everyone split, the guys did not come out to see the fans - there really weren't that many fans waiting outside either so i thought it was odd, it was awesome when they played The Line Begins to Blur, Closer was amazing, Hurt For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen! Wish, Suck, Reptile, fucking Starfuckers! Even Deeper NICE! i'm tired so see ya
Master Traveler
We were 2 feet from the stage, then 6 feet, then 3 feet, then 12 feet.... all in a matter of moments, but what an amazing night! To see Trent and Co. that close-- not since his first tour was a real treat. I can hardly wait until tomorrow night for the next show... was kind of hoping for a "different set", maybe with more songs from WT since it was released today. But, just to see a live show again was so good!

Also looking for a chance to get an autograph or something, but no luck... guess my husband and I just don't look like "obsessive fans" even though we are! Maybe we'll have a better shot tomorrow night. Looking forward to another "close" night with everyone...

Time to put my happily "ringing" head to bed... :lol: :)

Please excuse my post. I was not at this show. I just wanted to comment on how much that set list kicks ass. I really hope a boot of this show surfaces. I was hoping that they would play "Love Is Not Enough" again. "No, You Don't" turned up as well. :-) KICK ASS!
Master Traveler
Interesting setlist, quite a bit different from those in the past. Also interesting to see No You Dont again, they have only played that once so far in Reno, was wondering when it was gonna show up again.
Master of the Ninth Arch
Holy christ I can't talk and I can't move. Due to taking-care-of-baby reasons we arrived too late to start taping, but people that plan extraneous activities during a NIN show should also remember the freak-out distraction factor that NIN creates onstage: I was speechless and could only guzzle down beer and stare googley-eyed at the stage and scream the lyrics. Five years, holy shit I missed them.

Know what else was amusing? The stares I got from people around me that didn't know all the lyrics to all the new material.

I saw LunaReptile off on the floor with his camera, and I saw a couple of other digital backlight displays from people videoing, but no word on whether or not they were official or private or what.

Ow, gotta take some aspirin and get shit straight tonight so we can get there EARLY THIS TIME.
Master Traveler
man this is great! i can't wait for the show tonight. excuse my cheesiness but i feel like i've been waiting my whole life to see NIN.
Master of the Ninth Arch
mind = blown
body = trashed
adrenaline rush = over 100%
sleep = 45 minutes maybe

going back to show 2 for further destruction!!!

hey "repeating in my head" you are one awesome guy!
Bricklayer
The show last night was unbelievable. My friends and I arrived at 7:30 am and were like 11th in line. I wanted to be against the rail because I'm not hardcore in the sense I like to get my ass kicked while I enjoy music. We brought chairs and a cooler and games and stuff to pass the time, but that only kept us occupied until mid-afternoon when we started to get anxious and crazy with anticipation. Once the doors opened, I made a mad dash for the rail, and got a spot CENTER STAGE. AHH!
I personally love the Dresden Dolls, so seeing them so close was amazing. Someone threw a cup of ice onto the stage before they started playing, which pissed me off... but they shut up all their critics by the time they played Ozzy's "War Pigs" cover. Amanda is a madwoman, she goes to town on the keyboard... she even broke a key! :-o And Brian (the drummer), is so kick ass! He broke several drumsticks as well. They have quite a lot of energy.
So, on to NIN... the entire experience feels like a dream to me. I mean, I was against the rail, directly in front of the microphone, and suddenly, Trent's a few feet away from me. It was indescribable. He looked into my eyes for the majority of piggy (heh... yeah not the most romantic song to have sung to you, but hey :? ) At one point he jumped into the crowd, right on top of me, so I was having to help hold him up. (Jesus Christ!) But of course everyone in the vicinity is trying to touch him, not hold him, and he ended up biffing it, but security kinda caught him. This was awesome, because he put his hand up to his face and had a James Brown I-can't-go-on moment. Someone had grabbed the microphone however, and they had to fish it out of the crowd. At this point, my ribs and pelvis were sore from being smashed, and it was only like six songs in. I also felt like I was going to throw up. And I had been kicked in the head about 97 times from security grabbing the crowdsurfers to help them over the rail. So I figured, "I love Trent, but I love my insides too." And plus I had already touched him and had him look at me for awhile... what more could a gal want in a relationship with a rock star? So I had security rescue me, or rather wedge me out of my spot. I grabbed my purse but I lost my fedora which I had set on the inside of the rail. :x
I went and had me a drink, then went back into the crowd a safe distance from the moshing, but still close enough to see. During Starfuckers, the audience went on saying "Don't you, don't you, don't you..." for much longer then needed, and Trent smiled, put his hand up and said "Okay that's enough. You know, we were thinking of something to do later tonight, and figured we'd have a party in Aaron North's hotel room at the Hyatt. Remember that name: Aaron North." Ha! Once that song was over, everyone was talking about actually going... I felt like shite though and could feel myself forming bruises. :cry: I wonder who all went, and what became of them?
Anyway, hearing Trent live is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experience... everyone should see him at least once. It's something I will never forget. Waiting 12 hours just to be directly in front of him for six songs was definitely worth it. However, today I'm just going to show up a bit early and make my way up occasionally. I'll post on tonights show later! :grin:

I was about 4 people behind you Aiyla, and totally understand! You made it longer than I did though. I went straight to the merch booth to get a litho (I got one in Reno, and remember everyone saying they were gone after the show so I wanted to make sure I got one right away). I thought I could protect it in the pit, and did a decent job at first by holding it up in the air. Then the crowd surfers came and squashed the fuck out of it. Might get another one tonight. Any way, my glasses nearly got knocked off as well, so I got out my camera, took about 10 good close shots of Trent, then had someone help me up to crowd surf out (a helluva lot easier than backing out from that close). I just couldn't take it up there, guess I'm getting too old. It's all good though, I got to scream in the mic for Denver Fragility, and was right up front that whole show. I don't need to be that close anymore.

Hope to see/meet some of you tonight, met some cool people yesterday but most weren't from the boards.
Master Traveler
Alyla!

That's really awesome! Wow! 7:30a? insane!!!

anybody think that many of those songs played last night will be repeated tonight?

hey all look for me and say hello! here is a pic of my boyfriend and i (we'll both be there, only i have blonde hair now):

I could maybe agree with Starfucker, although the little announcement in 'Don't You' made it better, but 'Home'? No way, I hope he plays it again tonight!
Hello to all the Echoing The Sound peoples out there. Just wanted to thank you all for a well-maintained tour website. Am a NIN fan living in Adelaide, Australia and checking out the setlists, etc has been a great way to keep up with what's going on over the other side of the world.
Certainly agree it's nice to see "Reptile" and "Comedown" in the set but am getting a tad tired of "Starfuckers". Of the new album (which I bought on the first day of sale here in Australia) I'd say I thought "Collector", "Hand That Feeds" and "Only" would work best live, although "All The Love" and "Love Is Not Enough" are pretty good, too. Am hoping Trent and the boys can make it Down Under in early 2006 for the Big Day Out festival. Either that or they record the "Teeth" tour for live CD/DVD a la "Fragility".
Knight of the Royal Axe
if anyone could pick up a poster for me tomorrow that would be totally awsome. :) I could trade you my extra poster from San Fran or can i hook u up with a buttload of bootlegs on CDs. Hit me up via PM. Im willing to take two if possible as my buddy gary and i want to collect all of the posters......
Master Traveler
Those Denver ones are probably the coolest looking ones I've seen, looks like Kidneys coming out of a spine or something. Pretty nice looking.

That was my friend Elias! But he didn't throw it at the band, he threw it because some dumbass chick was sitting on someone else's shoulders up there and we couldn't see a damn thing. We all loved the Dolls, too.

I usually dislike large shows like this for a variety of reasons, but it was hella worth it to see NIN. Wish I could have gone on the 4th as well. :(

-PS
Hi, i am an Initiate (darkspark) but my password won't take. so I had to post as a guest...

I won't wax ad infinitum about this show, but there are some things that ahave not been brought up...

the dresden dolls were totally awesome and homicidally good. amanda said she broke a key and they played an unexpected missed me...the sound was rich and full and they were in complete harmony with each other and the crowd...can't wait to see them again...

nails- the band sounded great, the set list was awesome, the arrangements kicked ass (especially burn), what haven't you heard? well...here you go...nine inch nails may kick ass, but denver sucks ass...what a terrible and lame ass city that is unworthy of nine inch nails...the only thing worse than the city is the fans...total losers...the fat latin kid screaming in the line, the goth burn out throwing up near the shit car, the pot pipe sellers, the homeless guys selling t shirts they found on the street....all of these people fit right in with the ticket holders...some of the most lame goth wannabes I have ever seen. (i like goths normally, but if you can't fit into the corset, try a t shirt). I felt like I was the only one who knew most of the words and certainly the one percenter who knew the words to home...the fillmore venue is awesome, the band is awesome, but the denver crowd sucked ass...flame away...

oh yeah, I remember reading somewhere about denver being a one of the fattest cities and I didn't believe it...oh contrare', seeing is believing- or rather- seeing is bereaving...blah. and no one seemed to mind wearing their lame ass sam goody downward spiral shirts, i was wearing black but i refused to be "that guy," I was clearly in the minority...having said that, I didn't see a single "object" shirt ( a personal fave) or a ninetynine shirt...losers.

one other side note- I think that trent needs to take the rocking down a notch...there is no doubt I am destroyed, but I needed a break after an hour of total anihilation...maybe a good time for some still?my ears are still ringing...what a blast, but the crowd----you guys suck, go back to littleton suburb babies...
I MET ROB SHERIDEN!


I was stading in line waiting for the show and I noticed him pull his car into the area where the buses were. So I called his name and he came over and talked to me and shook my hand. It was funny because nobody else in line even knew who he was. Apperently he's been seen alot on this tour so I'm guessing there is going to be a live dvd.
Master of the Ninth Arch
It is I, darkspark 666, so's if anyone from denver has a beef w/ my opinion, you'll know I'm not hiding...

based upon what I'm reading in access and also about the 05.04 show, the set list seems to be changing...I felt that w/ teeth was not being represented as an album and am glad to see more songs...quite confused why only, sunspots, all the love in the world and everyday is exactly the same have not been played more...they are the redeeming points in the album...by the way, although the concert was awesome, love is not enough is not a good way to start the show...
Master of the Ninth Arch
Furthermore, I do not think that TR is getting "hunky" or even built...I am stronger than he and noone makes posts about me. Seriously, I could kick his ass and if he wants a challenge, his skinny chicken leg ass knows where to find me.

Oh, shut the fuck up already...BITCH.
Master of the Ninth Arch
Sorry, I 'm still buzzing (two days later) and can't organize my thoughts. I was at the front (maybe 6/7 rows back) in the beginning, about 25 feet from the stage...NIN starts @>20 minutes after d dolls...now I'm suddenly 15 ft from the stage, no make that 10, no- 20, no-7...around and around...I did this for the first song and dodged a couple of feet from crowd surfers and kept my pants up and mostly just tried to stay afloat...i was very happy with my position but it took more concentration to stand up than I had on the band...so, I moved back a litlle...BIG MISTAKE- out of the frying pan, into the mosh pit! fuck that noise. I moved to teh side by some way dressed up party girl w/ too much jewelry (who still seemed to know all the words to the songs) and enjoyed TR from @35 feet away. Fine w/ me...after the show, I started making my way to the merch stand at head like a hole (knowing it was the last song) and got in line before the shit hit the fan...got a litho, concert t w/ dates and the dread blue hoodie (which is actually way cool)...again, I wish this show just went on and on and on and on and on, but the crowd was filled with redneck limp bizkit loser corn fed behemoth drunk crocodile bastahds...people pushing....sweating (boy-was it hot...I wasnt even moving and I was dripping...)...great show, wish I could have gone both nights, or in chicago....

Go back to prickville, you judgemental "I'm better than everyone else" dick! Your so cool cause you're an initate and cause you knew all the words to 'home'. Next time, stay the fuck home, you'll be doing yourself and everyone else a favor! I'm glad to hear you missed the GOOD show, but from reading your post you would've been too much of a pussy to handle it anyway.

Well aren't you the shit.

Bricklayer
I agree with you completely, LunaReptile. Darkspark is only making such comments because he is bitter about his own appearance, and perhaps jealous that he missed the second show. I personally think Colorado is full of gorgeous, intellectual, talented people... it's a perfect balance between a big city, where most people are self-absorbed, and a smaller one, where most people are closed-minded. And besides, how can you judge an entire area after attending a concert? Hmmm?
Master of the Ninth Arch
Say what? I'm not bitter, I just think that about 1/10 of the crowd was jacked about that show...you see, you had people just standing there (not me) and then mindless zombies thrashing around and pissing off the people just standing there. the crowd seemed like, "whatever, that's cool..."...I was jacked and kind of brought down by the crowd...

Also,. what's this about aaron north being a madman...he seemed pretty calm to me...maybe I spent too much time staring at trent to notice, but he aaron didn't particulary command my attention....

I'm sure that everyone on this board was cool as hell, but a lot of people there just pissed me off...

I'm not going to insult anyone unless really provoked...colorado is cool, vacationing there next month, but denver is pretty skanky...
Master of the Ninth Arch
darkspark wrote:but denver is pretty skanky...
I diagree, but ok. Granted Colfax isn't the best part of town, but Denver is a beautiful city.
Master of the Ninth Arch
Agreed. But the capitol is even worse...since you went to both shows, how would you rate the audience in regard to the second night...it would seem that the 4th was the one to see...but that wasnt an option (tsk) for me...

what the hell happened when trent went body surfing? why weren't people holding him up?
Bricklayer
I was trying to hold him up, but it was hard 'cuz everyone he was over my head, and everyone in the vicinity was trying to touch/grab/molest him. Therefore, he just was shoved back by the crowd and went kaput on the other side of the rail. It looked quite painful actually. :cry:
Grand Pontiff
I arrived at the Fillmore around 12:30 and got a decent spot in line. I met LunaReptile in line, which was pretty cool, being my first ETSer sighting.

Dresden Dolls were amazing. They said "We're gonna play a rock song now" and Brian kicked in to about 10 seconds of March of the Pigs, to raucous applause, before changing over to "War Pigs". He's definitely one of the best drummers I've ever seen. During their set, and NIN, I was behind Desecrated_1, pulling protection duty.

Somehow, between DD and NIN, we both got turned sidways and unintentionally dry-humped for a coupe minutes. It was that packed, that I couldn't turn, or move, or anything. When NIN came on stage and started into "Love is not Enough" I swear I cried, although I couldn't tell through the sweat whetherr any tears actual came. That was literally a moment I'd been waiting for since I was 12.

The set was amazing, and everyone did an awesome job on their instruments. I suppose TR screwed up a couple lyrics, but I don't think anyone minded. They closed again with "HurtTheHandThatFeedsStarfuckersHeadLikeAHole". Some of my highlights were "No, You Don't", "Reptile", and "with teeth".

May 3 transcendent moment: The octave-lower-than-bass-guitar-building-shaking-bass on "Closer".

People are dumb shits is what happened; Trent's no deity, but tell that to the folks who let him fall just so they could touch his sleeve and never wash their hands again.
Seeing NIN was incredible, and the Fillmore is an amazing venue, but I think I'll go back to my small venues and small bands now, where people don't literally worship the ground the singers walk on (and where people actually know how to conduct a good pit, I might add...) It sorta improves the whole experience, you know, when people are there to listen and to mosh instead of blow kisses and flash their tits at just another guy who plays music.
Heh, not to sound like a prick, I hope, but damn, nothing makes me itch for an underground metalcore show at something like the Bluebird or Cervantes or the Ogden like a big mainstream show does.

This was an INCREDIBLE show! My first Nine Inch Nails concert because I've had the worst luck trying to get to them...for the past 10 years! I'm going to make sure I never miss another.

I want to know, was there really anything going on at the Hyatt? My babysitter flaked out on me, so I couldn't even go check. I did call though & they said they couldn't transfer any calls to that room & that they couldn't tell me what room he was in. I also saw an autographed something online that someone claims to have got at the release party there?? Just wondering if I really missed out??

Also, does anybody have an extra litho they'd be willing to part with? My ATM card wouldn't work either before the show & I had to go with no money. :-( I tried to tell myself it was great just to see them, but it would be nice to have something else to show for it.
Master of the Ninth Arch
stacz,

I have an extra litho, but it's all bent because of the pit. I have pics, PM me you're e-mail and I'll send you the pics and you can determine if you're still interested.
Master of the Ninth Arch
You brought a litho into the pit? I have to say, you are awesome...

Is anyone wishing they were in chicago right now? I am seriously wishing I was seeing more shows.
Master of the Ninth Arch
Hell yeah! Glad I missed last night though since they had sound problems.

Yeah, I thought I could 'protect' it, and did a decent job of it for about 7, maybe 8 minutes. I didn't want to wait till the end of the show to get it, and wind up not getting one.
Master Traveler
I thought I was being smarter than LunaReptile by passing my litho up in front of the barrier. Wound up getting just as smashed by all the crowd surfers walking through the area. Bastards! Hey Aiyla (hope I got that right), you may try calling the Fillmore to see if they have a lost and found. That fedora was...fedorable. I'm done now.
Master of the Ninth Arch
-OR- you guys could have waited until after the show to buy it...there seemed to be plenty left...I don't know if I really wanted the thing but it seemed stupid to leave and not get one...the SF ones are getting like $50 on ebay but there's no way I'm selling mine. Did anyone else get any good schwag? Do you know of anyone who got to meet TR or go back stage or get bled on...?
Master of the Ninth Arch
i'm so wishing that i could go to all of the shows, or at least 6 more of them! i feel fortunate enough to have seen them 2 nights in a row; although being up front getting smashed on all night is a huge distraction, can't say that i didn't enjoy it though even through all the pain. I'm only 5'4" and stayed there through the whole set, i was probably the last to leave because i knew i was just going to fall on my face when it was time to go, sure enough the bouncer is like "you have to go" so off i go stumbling and almost falling down (and no drugs or drinking or anything) just severely dehydrated, God i was sweating buckets, i was hoping that someone video taped me leaving because it would be hilarious to watch. not that it felt good, and shaking from all the adrenaline rushing through my body, i went in all dolled up and came out completely thrashed and trashed and soaked in shower of sweat, then i made my way to the merch stand and almost passed out, it took forever to get the litho but i got one and a tour shirt #2. It would have been so much better if Trent came out to meet some of us after the show and sign shit for us afterall we are there for him, but to no avail, i saw him get on the bus and that was that. I have my poster framed with no sig, how fucking sad! i'm all hurt over it, but then not too many people ever get to meet Trent! maybe someday! and they better be coming back again is all i can say, i'm hoping Red Rocks because the acoustics there are simply incredibly perfect and it's so beautiful amongst the rocks.

You know, maybe it's the lack of oxygen to the brain at 5280' or too many kicks in the head, and living in the moment, but I think the above setlist is as good as it gets because so far it seems like nobody can remember the order of the songs.

Here is another pic of Aaron, i had this camera shoved in my bra to free my hands and almost had my left nipple torn off by it so i hope you enjoy!

Ten days later and I am only *beginning* to digest this show...My POV in the audience seems to change everytime I remember...anyway- did anyone notice the fans with the transformers shirts on? Am I missing something?
Master of the Ninth Arch
Anybody else take pictures, video, something??? I took pics only on the first night and not too many since i didn't want to annoy people, especially the band with the flashing,- and didn't bring a camera on the 2nd night. come on someone out there is holding out!
If anybody as any extra shirts (L or XL) email me at sneyeper5@gmail.com.

Anyone looking for a good frame job of your Denver litho, check out Avalon Art & Framing (Bowles & Platte Canyon). It's a small mom and pop like store, and they do a REALLY good job. Kinda pricey ($90-$120) depending on what you get (i.e. I got expensive glass that protects from UV fading), but they look fucking sweet! PM me with your e-mail address if you'd like to see pics, as I've given up trying to post pics here.

If you tell Rebecca that Justin sent you, you might get a small discount (depending on how many people actually do it, the first two or three might not get a discount, but if more show up I bet she'll give you about 10% off).

Edit: I'm smart like a model, I figured it out!! Here's the pics! You should still PM me if your interested, I bet if I can get at least 5 of you I can work out some kind of discount with Rebecca

I'm so jealous of you and your Denver lithograph!

I'll pay big bucks for one if anyone has an extra Denver litho and you want to make some cash...

hmmm i know they played Reptile 3rd, because i was hoping that they would play it... and i remember it being third. I also thought startfuckers was played earlyer... but i could be wrong. Dammit, i have been searching forever for the actual setlist with no luck. this is the closest i've found... if anyone figures or finds the real one will you email it to me? (sidewaayz@netscape.net) Please?

I was pretty sure it was second, but my memory of the order faded quickly (I even reviewed in my mind after every couple songs, hoping to keep it straight!)
Out of curiosity, did any of you recieve Celldweller stickers? I was street teaming for him up and down the line before the show, and I hope some folks checked him out.
