Get Down Make Love
Down In It
The Hand That Feeds
Head Like A Hole

i THINK thats the right order for the set. I really enjoyed the light show, and loved the Fragile-heavy set. Get Down make love was incredible, and the band went nuts durin Down in it.
Bricklayer
That sounds right, although I left after Head Like a Hole and they said on the radio they came back and did Hurt as an encore? Can anyone confirm this? I would be suprised if it's true, since HLAH ends the show 99.9% of the time. I wanted to get a TV on the Radio CD before the line got huge, but the CD was sold out anyway.

Only thing I was hoping for and didn't get was the Big Comedown. I was really looking forward to Into the Void and it didn't disappoint. Was the highlight for me.

That, and the non musical highlight of Trent going off. "If you spit on me one more time I'll rip your fucking cunt off!"
Master of the Ninth Arch
If we missed Hurt, I'll be pissed.

Great show, though. I'll do a good post tomorrow.
I agree.....i was looking forward to the big come down, i haven't seen that one live yet and it's one of my favorite songs
Bricklayer
Oh...we all heard him. He said it over the mike in the middle of a song. Get Down Make Love if I recall correctly. I was about 10 rows from the front and not in the pit, so didn't see the girl, but it sounds like she was actually spitting on him. He did go grab a towel and wipe off his arm after he said it. I'm suprised she wasn't just kicked out right away, but maybe she was. I'm sure someone that was up in the pit and saw the whole thing will chime in.

While it's always fun to see Trent getting pissed about something, that is by no means an excuse for some girl to be spitting at him while he is trying to perform. I don't know what she was thinking, and am curious to get the whole story myself.
No way they performed an encore. They were tearing down the stage and all the house lights were on. pretty dissapointing
That show was siiiiiick.

Bauhaus was disgusting. When Peter Murphy grabs the staf you know he means business.

Did anyone get to see TV on the Radio... with Trent playing guitar. No one was there for that one.

I keep seeing this on NIN's setlist. I couldn't find my own answer anywhere, but where is Non-Entity from? I couldn't figure out what the hell song it was from seeing the setlists, and I was hoping I'd recognize it at the show but no dice. What's the song from?
El Diablo, aye yi yi
Great show, but it seemed shorter than the arena tour last fall, but it was worth it just to hear La Mer, Down In It and Get Down Make Love. I really loved the fuller version of Non-entity as well. I hope that shows up on a CD at some point.


Hah, and the non-musical quote was bad-ass. My friend who was in the pit said the girl was definitely spitting at Trent. I just don't get people sometimes.

Trent also gave a shout out to the familiar faces in the front. He said it was nice to see them all again :)
The show was rediculously good. TV On The Radio was great, Bauhaus destroyed, and Nine Inch Nails were {a welcomed} overkill.


Yes, Double Dare and She's In Parties were my Bauhaus highlights.

And you're Damn right that Down In It and Get Down Make Love were my highlights for NIN.

I love you. Enjoy Yourselves.

It looked like a segment of the lights on that front cage thing that they lower down was burned out, which was kind of distracting, but other than that, i think the visuals they had were great.
Master of the Ninth Arch
Yay, I get to post in in the Tour Journal where the BIG BOYS play!!

Just for the perfectionists, the actual quote (and one of the greatest deliveries of all time) was "If you spit on my AGAIN, I'll rip you fucking cunt off!"

In true Trent fashion, he gently worked it into the song he was in the middle off. Picture something like............."Get Down, Make Love......Get Down Make Looooveee...........Get Down Make Love..........Spit on my again, and I'll rip your fucking cunt off" Just wait till the bootleg, it's absolutely priceless.

He then calmly opened another water bottle and "jacked it off" right in the bitches face!!! :)

The visuals were undescribably unique and incredible.
At this point do I even need to point out that the show was amazing?
That's what we're all here for, and this is what they do, night after night, they bring the goodies and we gobble them down!

Run, don't walk, to Holmdel, NJ where we'll most certainly discover the exact procedure for actually detaching one's vagina.

See you there.

That's because retarded Aaron stuck his guitar in the gate in DC and shorted them out.

BTW, Trent thought that the psycho red haired chick Suzie that goes to every show was the one who spat on him, that's why he said "cunt". It was actually some guy behind her who did it. I bet she's crushed.

Still on a high from the show! It was great to hear Frail/Wretched again. GDML was so rad too. The whole experience was just awesome.

My friend and I had some crappy Spiral seats right behind the pit on Jeordie's side. Lucky for us, though, the guys who let us down to our section accidentally gave us pit wristband, so after Bauhaus we moved to the back of the pit towards the middle. That view was so much better and we had lots of room to rock out.

It was nice to see old friends and familiar faces too.
Master of the Ninth Arch
Pretty incredible show... don't think anything will ever compare to seeing them for the first time at the electric factory though.

I was driving and we got there at about 7, so when we arrived I drank as much as was possible (screw 7 dollar beers) in 30 minutes. But as we were walking towards the will call window I threw up in the parking lot. I felt better after that.

What was with the cops in the parking lots? I've been to tweeter for festivals (ozzfest/lolla) and didn't see it THAT clamped down.

We (my girlfriend and a friend of mine) get in the pit in the middle of bauhaus' set in front of aaron. La mer/into the void was great! And down in it was phenomenal.

Trent didn't do much in the way of talking, besides the whole spitting thing, but that could be the reason why.

Some fat ass tried to crowd surf during THTF.I tried to support him so my girlfriend wouldnt get trampled. Next thing I know I can't see because my glasses got knocked off. I kneel down for like 15-20 seconds scrounging the floor while hearing people above me "YOU OK?!" "HEY MAN YOU ALRIGHT?!" Fortunately, I found them way to the left of me without being stepped on or anything. That was sweet.

Getting out of that place was quite a hassle. But seeing NIN is always worth it.

non-entity was one of the songs trent performed at React now. you can find it on you tube most likely.
NiN did not play hurt. I stayed until i saw the stage crew start to take apart the set/amps/racks and the house lights went on. I was surprised they didnt play hurt.

and is it me or do the T shirts design suck this time around, crap nothing but crap the only thing that got my attention and money was the tour program, the NiN beanie . I mean the t shirts the guys were selling for 15 bucks in the parking lot I liked better than the NiN designs .

PS - Who is going to PNC BANK on Friday, ANYONE ANYONE ?
El Diablo, aye yi yi
I liked the shirts, actually. For once, they didn't have just black. I'll admit the orange one was pretty nasty looking, but I thought the other ones were OK. I liked the woman's shirt, but I wasn't about to pay $45 for it, so I got the light blue one instead.

I really didn't miss Hurt as much as I thought I would, since they did La Mer and Into the Void. That made up for it for me, as I'd never heard that live.
Grand Pontiff
Good show.

TV on the Radio kicked ass. They started much earlier then I anticipated. It seemed like only the Spiral members saw them because the venue was practically empty. I think they transfer well to a live setting; they were giving off a more rock vibe then I expected. Awesome act.

I'm not too fond of Bauhaus. I didn't enjoy them one bit. And what the fuck was Peter Murphy trying to do when he was acting like a bird? And what's the deal with the bamboo stick and guitarist's white fur vest? Whatever.

NIN was impressive. The visuals were nuts, especially during Help Me I'm In Hell and Closer. GDML was fan-fucking-tastic, I'm so happy they played it. I am also glad that they didn't play Hurt, it just doesn't do anything for me. The ending with the gate displaying "NIN" was such a great ending; it was perfect.

The only dissappointments were the flickering section of the gate, and no TBCD or EDIETS. I was expecting TR to start flipping out on the gate. He kept looking at it throughout the concert.

[s]I also believe that the "spitting incident" happened during a Broken song. I'm thinking either Gave up or Wish. It was awesome, nonetheless.[/s]

Does anyone know if there was a sound check/M&G? I arrived pretty late and didn't ask anyone there.
Bricklayer
Wheh, got back from Philly a little while ago. Great show except of course for the whole spitting incident. I thought TVOR was very energetic and I enjoyed them immensely.

No soundcheck or M&G. One of the security guards said that soundcheck was scheduled to be at 3:00 but it didn't happen. A tour bus showed up a little before 4:00 so maybe someone was running a little late.

Bahaus was the shit and Peter Murphy was totally amazing. What a performer.

Trent and Co. were spot on and I'm sorry they cut the set short, probably due to the spitter as everyone else said. I was a wee bit disappointed that they didn't do The Big Comedown, but what they did play was probably the closest to my wish set list as it's ever going to get. GDML rocked (even with the spitter) and Down In It was a treat. No Hurt or SICNH.

The spitting incident happened toward the end of GDML. It was actually some guy behind a girl on the rail. TR must of thought it was her. What he said was. "Spit on me again, motherfucker, and I'll rip(or tear) your cunt off" Then he slammed the mic stand down and for half a sec I thought he was gonna storm off stage cause he turned around muttering something. He grabbed a water bottle and sprayed it toward the spitter.

I had a surreal moment just before Bahaus came on. I could swear that the Faure Requiem was playing. Can anybody else confirm this? Trent's gettin' al highbrow on us with the music between the sets. Hmmm. Not a bad thing.
Knight of the Royal Axe
Someone on the Spiral put up a video of GDML (including TR's comment to the spitter) on Youtube.

CLICKY HERE
I was allll the way out on the lawn but i didn't give a shit, even the lawn was an amazing place to be.
The "spitting" incident happened during get down make love, if I recall correctly, the whole band stopped playing for a moment and all you heard was Trent saying, very sincerely, "If you spit on me one more time I'm going to rip your fucking cunt off", and then they all just jumped right back into the song.
The whole show was fucking amazing, better than the arena tour last year when I was them in November at MSG, this just blew that show away.
The setlist was short, but I LOVED Down In It, and NIN went completely crazy during it (as did the true NIN fans).
Also, I'm too lazy to look up who said it, but at the end of the show, when they had the gate down and the gigantic NIN was being displayed on it, the flickering between the I and last N was supposed to be happening, kinda to go along with the whole imperfect distorted image that With Teeth has.
All around amazing show, I hope everybody enjoyed it as much as I did.

BTW: Camden is a shit-hole.

So has an official decision been made on whether or not that strip of lighting on the right side of the grid was on purpose or not? It was really bugging me for a while. At some times I thought it was on purpose, at other times I was certain it wasn't on purpose, and at other other times I couldn't even tell it was there (leading me to believe it WAS on purpose!).... Anyway, have concert-goers that were at the previous shows noticed this? Can the people oging to PNC tomorrow report back to us?

PS - If Camden does suck; how much did that traffic on the way out suck?!

Either way, awesome show, awesome night - only the second time I've seen NIN; the other being their Arena tour here in Philly in November of '05. I refuse to miss their show whenever in the Philly area.

From what i've heard so far the flickering on the gate has been either A.) An intentional with teeth-esque design, or B.) A result of Aaron shorting out some of the gate in DC from sticking his guitar through it.
I'm going to think it was an intentional and planned flickering.

And as far as the traffic goes, you parked in the 15 dollar parking lot right? lol, I saw the price and was like fuuuck that, I parked a block away in front of some boarded up house. The show was fucking sick =)

If the flickering is intentional, then it's something new. I'd been to 5 shows on this leg & hadn't seen it do that. Look around at the tons of photos that are out there, the lights were fine. Then in DC Aaron stuck his amp under the cage as it was going down & it got stuck, & smashed his guitar into it. Someone on the Spiral posted a photo of him doing it: http://messageboards.musictoday.com/sho ... ge=5&pp=10

Did anyone see the guy in the wheelchair?? His wife pushed him out into the pit during Bauhaus and about three songs into NIN's set she was pushing him out..and they both looked terrified!!

I feel so bad for the girl accused of being the spitter..that has to suck. '..rip your fucking cunt off!'

TVOTR was pretty decent..liked the chimes on the one dudes guitar. Bauhaus I found entertaining..a bit long, but entertaining. I couldn't stop laughing when Peter Murphy was acting like a bird..wtf?? LoLLerskates *HUGZ*

Well..Trent rocked, aaron staged dived right in front of the mosh pit, jeordie at one point seemed to be making shadow puppets, alessandro is just amazing and josh freeze was on point last night. I can't wait for Friday!!
That was my first NIN show last night and it totally kicked my ass. I was really hoping for Reptile or Starfuckers, but oh well, can't have everything. I can't wait till they tour again, I'll definitely be there.

Anyone know if there is a way to save the youtube videos? I noticed that guy put up 2 other songs form last night.
Grand Pontiff
First off, Camden is not a very pretty place. No offense to anyone living there but after finding out the Riverline didn't run back to Trenton we decided to take a cab there (and then transfer to get back to NYC) and had to listen to the most bizarre tales of Camden's murder rate and chicken store shoot-outs.

Second of all, the show was AMAZING. Everything was perfect (except for the one strip of lights) and the crowd in the pit wasn't bad at all, save for a few songs. While I loved the setlist for the other legs of this tour, this one was by far my favorite. They really mixed it up and played all the songs I'd been dying to hear. Once again Pretty Hate Machine really shines live. I also thought the classic NIN logo in lights at the very end was a wonderful touch.

I can't wait for Saturday!

Trent has often used "cunt" to describe guys as well as girls, so I wouldn't necessarily base who he thought the spitter was on that part of his comment. Whatever Trent's, your, my, or anyone else's opinion of Suzie may be, I don't think anyone blamed her for the Spit Incident. Trent knew exactly who the spitter was and when he (spitter) continued to cause trouble in the pit he told security to get him out or else he'd end the show. And since the Tweeter security staff were a bunch of incompetant idiots, he skipped to the end of the set and cut out about 3 songs. (Seriously, security couldn't pull people out of the pit or notice when they were asking to be pulled out, never once gave us water, and seemed unable to police or take care of the crowd.)

Camden was pretty scary, especially in the wee hours of the morning--Awitha_Ghetto-a. Anyway, it was an amazing show, I can't wait until tomorrow! Does anyone know if it (last night) was recorded?

Someone posted on the Spiral board, by the way, that they had a picture of the spitter and would be posting it in the Holmdel Upcoming Shows thread. He already got the shit kicked out of him by Suzie, Abby, and everyone else around him, I don't envy him the "welcome" he'll receive tomorrow. Have fun, douchebag, karma's a bitch.

Suzie's the one who was saying that Trent thought it was her. Her friend posted over there that they talked to her after the show & she was upset because he pointed at her & stared her down. And they planted one of his security guys in front of her for the rest of the night.
Bricklayer
I feel bad for the chick Trent thought was spitting on him. I'm wondering if the guy that actually did it does it purposely to shorten the setlist. What an asshole.


I thought this was a great show! Even better than when I saw them in 2000 at the Wachovia Spectrum. I wasn't surprised at the lack of an Encore but I wasn't disappointed either. At 22 songs I think everybody definetly got their money's worth. I loved that he played the Soundtrack songs and I had a feeling "Non-Entity" was the one I didn't recognize. I watched that Relief special when he performed it but that was last summer so I've since forgotten how it goes. Hopefully that and "Not So Pretty Now" will be on the next halo of leftover With Teeth tracks.

I would've loved to hear "Eraser", "Mr. Self Destruct" or "Reptile" ah well..I'm still hoping to hear "The Perfect Drug" live one day..I guess we'll see!

How do you guys know he shortnened the set list?
Master of the Ninth Arch
I didn't see the spitter and I was right there. Apparently I wasn't paying attention. But I did see a chick punch this dude in the face. He was a shirtless mess and I think he was feeling her up (or perhaps spitting). Security tried to pull him over the barricade but he wouldn't budge. Then these three huge security guys came storming through the crowd and hauled him away. I have a picture of that and he wasn’t happy he was leaving. There were a bunch of kids there that were annoying for no damn reason and didn't even really know the songs. Finally got away from them and had a great time. I feel like I couldn’t here the music that well right in front for some odd reason the other night. But off to Holmdel tonight!
What album is non-entity on? I didnt recignize one song at the show and someone told me it was called non-entity....thanks

That was Spitty McSpitterson. He had his hand down the front of her pants so she clocked him. Did you see the cut on his head? Idiot was bleeding all over everyone. Security tried to get him to come over the barricade and he wouldn't go, so they took him out from the back.

Ahhhhh!! So it was then. He was mental. My friend saw the blood (because again I wasn't paying attention) she thought the chick broke his nose. I just saw the punch. He deserved anything he got for pulling that crap. He was totally pissed leaving and put up a fight with security.

I had a fucking great time at this show. I have been to about 12 shows and I had the best vantage point ever for this one. In fact, I just found myself in 2 of the frc.com pictures that were posted. It was great to see T Rez turn all evil and freak out for a few seconds and I know I can always count on ets to give the whole story behind the brief cunt-ripping freakout. This was a dream setlist, Down In It was the highlight of my year, and GDML and Into The Void made me appreciate the miracle of my own existence. I'd also like to thank god there was a show without Hurt or Starfuckers. Since a nin show always needs a few quiet moments, I thought that that Help Me I'm In Hell and the La Mer duet were much more effective than SICNH. I had such a good time that I forgive those bastards for leaving me standing in the spiral line for 3 hours for no reason (at least there are always a few cool people in the spiral line). See you fuckers at Jones Beach.

First of all, I was in the Pit section. I maybe saw about 20 real music/NIN fans and then a bunch of a#$ wholes that were just there to run into people. They didn't know one song and they were trying to mosh during LA MER! Trent Reznor was making fun of the crowd in the very beggining making comments like "oh you guys are so polite" and "Are you alive?" Trent obviosly did not like the crowd and was not into the show. I realized that after about 4 songs.

The band only got into it when a guy spit at Trent Reznor. No one mentioned that not only did hey squirt water at her. But he also took a bottle of water that was open and pegged it at her. He then got into the show and the last 5 songs were the best!

This was my 4th show in the past year and in my opinion was the worst. Somthing else I noticed was that Trent did not break his guitar during terrible lie which he ushually does. That shows that he was not into the show.

At the beginning of their set some girl was on the rail with her sketch pad, drawing him & security went over and told her that she was pissing Trent off. He was probably annoyed from the get go. What a bunch of wierdos.

That guy was such an idiot. He hit her and she fell backwards. This other guy and I were holding her up because she couldn't stand for awhile, but when she got up, she punched him as hard as she could and there was blood all over his face. The guy got really mad then and went to hit her and ended up punching the side of my face. I had to spend the rest of the night in the bathroom with the staff because I could hardly stand. That guy ruined my whole night. I was really looking forward to seeing them since I hadn't gotten to a show since the november one.

I missed the spitting incident, but the guy was spitting at the stage earlier in the night as well.

The girl you're talking about is a professional artist who bases her work on NIN and she's sketched at numerous concerts without Trent or anyone else having a problem with it. In fact, he's complimented her on her dresses and her work on several occasions. I was right near her on the rail at Camden, and security never asked her to put her pad away; she stopped sketching when the crowd became too rough for her to continue. If Trent was annoyed he was annoyed because the crowd as a whole was not as responsive or energetic as they could have been. She's not a weirdo, she's a fan, a successful artist, and a supernice person, so don't hate on her, especially when your comments are unsubstantiated.

That was Spitty McSpitterson. He had his hand down the front of her pants so she clocked him. Did you see the cut on his head? Idiot was bleeding all over everyone. Security tried to get him to come over the barricade and he wouldn't go, so they took him out from the back.
Ahhhhh!! So it was then. He was mental. My friend saw the blood (because again I wasn't paying attention) she thought the chick broke his nose. I just saw the punch. He deserved anything he got for pulling that crap. He was totally pissed leaving and put up a fight with security.
That guy was a gigantic douche. Thank god that girl punched him, idiot deserved it. Awesome show, wish I could have hit PNC as well. I think I almost died when they opened w/ 'Somewhat Damaged' - couldn't have asked for a better opener, IMO. My bra came unhooked in the pit, and I still have bruises on my shins :) What a night!

Non-Entity live was definetly better than the version with just Trent alone. "Down In It" was my favorite, and it seemed that Jeordie was definetly doing shadow puppets, i think it was in the beginning of The Hand That Feeds. Trent looked especially sexy in the beginning of the show when he had the vest on, then half way through he changed to another hot t-shirt.

I definetly think the screen was supposed to be flickering, it adds to the whole With Teeth logo stuff

I also want to mention i had SHITTY SPIRAL seats in the front by Jeordie, and my boyfriend was really upset since we couldnt see the drummer at all, just trent and jeordie and the crazy guitar player. the security at the venue were ASSHOLES and made us go back to the shitty seats after we moved up, so we were pretty pissed. i considered going on the lawn to smoke a joint, but i figured it wasnt even worth it. BUZZ KILL

either way, it was a decent show, but nowhere near the caliber that TOOL is performing at , GOAT (Greatest of All Time) their show at the tower on 5/17 was the best ever!!!

I heard that familial circle jerks are also customary in rural PA. True?

Has anyone heard any bootlegs for the concert, ive been looking all over.
El Diablo, aye yi yi
I keep checking, but I haven't seen anything surface :(. I got the show I went to a week later, but I really want this one, too.
