I was not at the show, but it's time for blog round-up for 23 May, Osaka:
(randomly roughly translated from many Japanese blogs)

- So much smoke!!
- The stage feels so close!
- I saw GOD! I do feel better now, thanks!! (during MOTP)
- Trent's voice!
- Aaron's hyper-activity! (again)
- The setlist itself! (a mash-up of all Tokyo's three setlists + something)
- Talkative Trent! (He talked twice!)
- Aaron says "Kan-pai"!! (in English "Toast" or "Cheers") * see below
- Minimum stage sets, massive lighting! This is better than BYIT!
- I really can see the sound!
- Happy surprises such as Last and MSD!
- Get Down Make Love!!!!!
- The total silence during Something I can Never Have and Hurt (you could hear a pin drop)
- Trent dives!
- Aaron dives!
- Trent destroys his guitar!
- Aaron throws his guitar high up and sticks it into a speaker 1.5 meters above his head!
- I wanted Starfuckers!!!
- Please come again!!

Trent's talk # one:
Trent says Japanese audience is great and that he wishes he could speak Japanese.

Trent's talk # two:
Trent: "We've been near here before, in 2005 (Summer Sonic 2005). How many of you were there?"
Audience: "I was!" "I was!" "I was!"
Trent: "All of you? Wow!"
and out of the blue...
Trent: "Aaron North!" (he introduces Aaron)
Trent: "Aaron, don't you know any Japanese?"
Aaron: (raising his right hand) "Kan-pai!"

# Trent coughed several times, which left some of the audience a bit worried...
It was great show!!!
but many troubles...

during"Gave up",Trent threw his water to Alessandro's keyboard.
so his gear broken.
And Jeordie's gear was broken(I don't know why?),
he didn't play "Help me I am in hell" and "Into the void"

during "Into the void",Jeordie was didn't play the guitars and basses.
he was walkin'on the stage left and right and sung chorus.
He looks so nervous...

masaaki, thank you for this post! It seems like a Great Destroyer show... Limitless potential of Nine Inch Nails. :grin:

I've heard from friends that Osaka shows were so good, and I'm glad. Only if I could have been able to make it... Maybe next time. Next time...

Wow. I'm listening to the bootleg from this show, and I must say it's just wild. The crowd seemed red hot all night. I've never been to an NIN concert due to where I live mostly, hehehehe, but from all the bootlegs I've heard, I have never heard a crowd so hot. It was clear during March of the Pigs, it was like all the crowd; every single one of them knew the lyrics and were singing along!

And as soon as Hurt and Something I Can Never Have hit, pure silence. Those who were there are right, you could here a pin drop. Just goes to show how much the Japanese are respectful and passionate.

It was also the first time I heard bootlegs of Me, I'm Not and Capital G live, and they sounded great. Me, I'm Not blew me away really!

Hope you guys who went there had fun. I know I did by just listening to it!
