that show was rocking, i have numerous pix and vids, and i have the full set list in total, they only preformed one year zero track (survivalism)
and the rest was old classics... more to come tomorrow

Can't wait to see the videos man!

I was really impressed with the concert, only thing that sucked was the end. I was hoping for Hurt or some kind of encore.
Anyway, I really enjoyed it. Can't wait for them to come back
Setlist: pinion. Wish. Terrible Lie. Survivalism. March of the Pigs. Piggy. Closer. Sin. No, You Don't. Only. Down In It. The Hand That Feeds. Starfuckers, inc. Head Like A Hole. Doing this on my phone, i got trent armpit all over my face :(

I loved it, yeah was pretty short all right but still glad they played here. I was inches away from touching Trent when he came down for piggy that was the 2nd time I was too far back, he held my cousins wrist for about 30 seconds (the bastard, I was so jealous) and I nearly caught his mike. I liked the fact that he apologised for the length of time not returning to Ireland and that he said see you soon, woo-hoo fingers crossed he will play an intimate gig in the olympia or somethin.

what the fuck is this??? Illiterate fuckhead.
It's a L0LL32sk4t3S OF TEH FUTURE.

Anyway, it was fun. Trent wasn't into it much at the start but they seemed to have fun from Piggy on. As I mentioned last night, I got covered in Trent sweat :/.

Aaron's guitar died during Closer and he had a little tantrum.

Trent apologised for not being here in 13 years and promised they'd be back "sooner than you think".

I loved when he went "little Irish piggies".

FUCK FOO FIGHTERS FANS IN THE EAR. I had a bunch of pretensious D4 poser teens beside me on the barrier (I was right in front of Trent) and they knew nothing, said Trent looked like George Michael (wtf?) and during the "don't you" chant of Starfuckers shouted "yes I do". I hope your Gucci handbags get stuck in a taxi door and drag you down Dundrum high street face down.

Anyway, yay for being in Ireland, boo for lack of Year Zero. But I had immense fun and it was great to hear Sin and Down In It.

i think with "being back sooner than you think" he means the TV-series

Hey nice and funny post man, I totally agree with you there were a lot of em' in the crowd I felt like they did not deserve to be there jumpin' around like f**kin retards that had no clue at all. Because of d4 teens and foo heads I missed the chance to get up close to Trent during piggy I wanted to kill some of them. They did not deserve to be in the pit. Lack of year zero tunes was a bit disappointing too, oh well just have to wait till they come back over eh?

also, Trent you rule, IRISH PIGGIES FTW!

Anyone know what he murmered during the "dont you" part of stafuckers, he stopped and looked around for a moment during that.

It was an amazing show. The smashed guitar count was a lot higher than I expected and it was cool to see foo fighter fans give in to NIN. They love mr north!
Bricklayer
great gig. different every time. the whole pinion/wish thing was a huge surprise given what previous set-lists have been like. A friend of mine was working for the camera crew and he said he was called in early in the day by NIN's production office and told to be wary of 'flying mic stands, guitars and water bottles' as it was to be 'nothing but shit-kicking hits.' And it was! A bit disappointed with the sound - was all low end but I guess that's open-air gigs. Aaron seemed to spend as much time doing nothing or smashing stuff as he did playing. That's not a complaint though! All in all very grateful that they came here!

He just did the usual "fuck you" but very quietly.
great gig, i was right up the front so sound wasnt the best but my mates were further back and said it was fine. great set, loved No You Dont and Down In It and everything else. crowd seemed to take to them well, nice bit of moshing where i was too. fair play to all the NIN fans with me up front who gave it loads. was well pleased Trent acknowledged us and the fact he hadnt been here in so long. not expecting him back anytime soon though (doesnt every music concert finish with "see you again soon"?) I was dissapointed they played Wish( my favourite live song) after Pinion. They did the same when I saw them in Madrid and its just doesnt get the crowd going as much as when they play it mid-set. didnt have any of the "collars up" Foo fans near me which was nice.
Bricklayer
brilliant gig..cant blame them for PLAYing an older setlist they havent been here in 14 years so it makes sense..better songs in any case..great setlist.sin and down in it brilliant..aaron north was great..foo fighters were so cheesy in comparison..awful..ta think that grohl was in nirvana..oh god..

no you dont what a surprise love the fragile!

I wasn't at the show but I was wondering if anyone can post the setlist?

there she is!
Master Traveler
I can't hear it, what does he say?
Master of the Ninth Arch
He says that he wants to thank Dave and the foos for asking them to come along and play with them, then says I want to apologise to our fans for not playing here enough and we will be back.

I thought the gig was amazing regardless of the short set, I was sooo close to Trent,was right at the barrier holding the resistance flag,and really young "nin fans" beside me actually turned and asked what the flag was for.I wanted to slap them.pfft.Setlist was not anything I expected,was hoping to hear capital G live or meet your master off year zero,was sooo chuffed to hear wish sin piggy, terrible lie,and head like a hole blew me away as did Mr.North (god he's so hot when he breaks stuff)was so close to Trent when he came in to the pit and I got one of his plectrums.I didn't realise how old Trent actually looks in person,but lets face it, you'd still bend over for him!Hope they come back soon of their own accord,although I agree with earlier posts his promise to come back could just be a passing affected comment you always hear at the end of shows,prove me wrong Mr.Reznor!!
Great gig indeed! Unfortunately wasn't as close as some of ye so videos but got some pics anyway... Wasn't in the country 13 years ago so I enjoyed hearing the old stuff anyway!

Man yes that's me!!!The silly northern Irish girl as many will remember me!! Aw man I'm sorry to steal it on you... well actually I'm not,Aaron North's mic stand fell over and I got one of them too...but I'm not selfish right?It's in my purse,the see thru bit so I can show it off until I finish creating my shrine....:P

and quite clearly I can't quote people properly...

it was truly amazing. i was quivering with excitement when pinion was playing over the PA and just freaked out for every song.

i was surrounded by non-NIN fans who kept giving me odd looks which just incited me to go even crazier.

brilliant gig.

best part was queuing for a t-shirt and hearing a girl in a foo fighters t-shirt say "art is resistance? what the fuck is that??"

What you do is tap your nose,raise your eyebrows and say "wouldn't you like to know?"
