Pretty awesome show, kinda bummed about the short amout of playtime they got: 1h 15 min

They also played The Way Out Is Through!

Show was great, way too short though, and I missed some of the rarer stuff that's been played like Metal, I'm Afraid of Americans, Banged And Blown Through, I Do Not Want This and so on... but since we never got the Slip stuff before it was cool either way. Hopefully they'll change it up for the Madrid show.

Also, he didn't say anything at all except for a few thank yous... energy was fantastic though and everyone else in the new band is really rocking out.

Edit: Oh, moshpits were awesome. Was kinda surprising how the best moshpit happened during Gave Up, so much fun :D
Great show. Disappointingly short though. Was it because of the short time they were given? Don't think anyone would've mind a longer show... The were the last band to perform on that stage as well.

Not as good as the legendary Hultsfred concert but much better than the shows at annexet and hovet.

the castañettes(spelling?) on the becoming was hilarious. Glad to finally hear my favourite song live.

Trent was on fire, really introvert but it worked well with the charmeurs at his sides. he kicked the keyboard off the stage at the beginning of the show and the technicians panicked.

How do I know this is correct?
1. I was there!!!
2. I dl:ed a good recording from dimeadozen.

This was my fifth NIN show and the songs I hadn't heard before were the songs from The Slip, Non-Entity, TWOIT, The Fragile and The Becoming. All of them sounded great but I still missed some songs for it to be perfect for me. But NIN is always NIN and I always love whatever they play. All of my friends who hadn't seen them before liked it aswell.

Great show, really great sound. I was far, far back from the stage (almost at the exit, actually) and I was impressed by the sound quality. Loud and clear. Not a huge audience, though, which surprised me.

Downloading from dime right now, thanks for sharing!!

Just got home from the festival (which was great). Awesome show, but not the best nin i've seen. But that was to be expected for a festival show. I missed Metal, I'm Afraid of Americans (played at the soundcheck) and some more material from YZ, but loved to see The way Out is Through and Non-Entity.

Now I have to download this show and start preparing for the Amsterdam show :D

EDIT: please post the bootleg on demoniod someone..
