Trent and the gang were really, really into the show !
Trent maybe even a little bit too much 'cause he broke his guitar and he pushed his electronic piano too much so it fell down off the stage
The people in the crowd did their job as well ! Lots of singing, clapping, moving, dancing, fucking, jumping, flying.
Fuck, I'm sure I forgot about some songs but I can't remind myself of any more, but I'm sure there were some ;p

Impressive, right? TR explains: "It took as so long to get here so let's make it worthwhile"
Three tamborines were thrown into the crowd. I got to catch one but got overpowered by the crowd and security was rushing in.
I could not imagine how powerful the band is going to be, whatever you can find on YouTube - it won't do justice, esp. to JMD, RF and IR - great surprise.

Oh my GOOOOD! Awesome show! Awesome crowd (even Trent said so)! Awesome setlist. The one posted above is correct, as far as I can recall (more than 2h!!!).
If you want to feel the enegry, wait for Rob Sheridan to post his two videos made onstage (during Survivalism and The Hand That Feeds).
THANK YOU!

Just woke up from a quick nap after a long day of traveling and enjoying myself.
Man, what a great show! I think that the band enjoyed it as much as the crowd did, you could have felt it in the way they played.
The setlists posted above seems correct, so I'll just post some random thoughts before I forget.
... the merch - a 'bit' overprized but I still couldn't resist myself from getting a bag and a t-shirt
... the venue - I was a bit suprised as it wasn't a typical place for a rock show but after all it was pretty nice. Well maybe not the non-working screens nor the wind blowing away all the smoke they were trying to make but other than that it was fine
... the support - sorry Alec Empire - you are just not my type. I'm affraid he didn't win the audience but at least didn't play to long. The best quote from the audience during his speech before the last song - "maybe now you will actually SING something". His chick was OK though
... the show - wonderful, energetic, varied and satisfying. I think Trent really appreciated the crowd and made sure to deliver the best show. He complimented us on several ocasions which was also very nice. I hope Rob will upload the vids he took as soon as possible.
I have so many other thoughs around my head right now but the above are the strongest ones.
Just a little bit sad we had to wait for the "Goodbye" tour to see NIN perform in Poland...

We've waited 20 years for this moment... damn, worth it!
The show was superb, far surpassing the ones I've seen in bits and pieces on YT and such. It seems that Trent really enjoyed it, too. He repeated himself a few times when complimenting the audience. Pretty well deserved... everyone seemed to be well prepared. You could almost always hear the slight echo of lyrics sang by the attendants - you know, not the disturbing one, the one amplifying the energy, groove and flow of the experience.
The most amazing moment was when everyone went 100% STFU on "Hurt" in the exact moment when Trent started singing. Through silence (and the aforementioned "backgroundy" singing) you could feel the power of the song perfectly. Trent's voice was never so... monumental? Only the words of the song, spreading through the arena(and a big part of Poznan, I presume, the sound was rather powerful), hitting like a hammer straight onto the soul. In the end I got a feeling that Trent also felt more touched by the song than lately (in the last few years, he seemed to get some immunity to voice breakdowns and wet eyes, staying sharp all the time, probably because of staying aware of people trying to hit him with something or expecting to get the song constantly interrupted by screaming psychos)...
Yeah, they "made it worthwile", alright. Awesome setlist, great performance, pure energy. Now there's no "Goodbye", Trent. I've seen within this act, how all the dudes were into it, that this is not the end of NIN touring forever, you'll be back, yo.
And we ain't letting you get away.

My second NIN show (1st really fuckin' awasome in Prague 2007) and it was a motherfuckin blast!!!
I know that Polish audience i proboably the best in the world but this... OMFG! Jesus FUCK! it was astonishing what happened there! Never saw anything like this in a concert! That gave the band extra power to perform a really breath taking show.
Trent complimented as couple of times, asked himself "Why did we wait so fucking long to come here?" and you could tell that he was really shocked and amazed by the reception they got in Poznań.
2 days later he wrote on his Twitter:
Crippled by no bus internet, but... THANK YOU POLAND! That was amazing!
http://twitter.com/trent_reznor/status/2312498391
So I guess that explains it all
THANK YOU TRENT!
Soundcheck (I was far far away and couldn't see anything, but was able to recognise the songs, some guy was filming it (on a huge zoom) until the security showed up):
- Line beginns to blur
- Piggy
- Suck
No vocals during sc, Trent screamed couple of times during chorus to Suck.
CONCERT OF A LIFE TIME.
Get Up! Step Up! MARCH!!!
