I forgot that I had this and never uploaded it to the show page itself. David Williams was the editor of this show and highlighted this bunch on his Vimeo page back in 2010. He spoke to the ninhotline in October of 2010 and had this to say about the project, "This shoot was when Virgin Records was going under and did not have the money to finish. The footage is lost forever. I was the editor of record for this project. This concert was probably never paid for to the production company due to the snafu with the label." The vimeo page has since been deleted. But thankfully, someone grabbed all the footage from the site for me to store for this long until I realized I never posted it! I remember back when it first was uploaded that David mentioned in a comment on the video that this was recorded in Phoenix of 1995. This may be the only footage that will ever surface professionally from the Outside Tour and it's some great stuff. These video files have been corrected from the original files posted on Vimeo. Specifically, the display aspect ratio has been corrected to 4:3, audio sync has been corrected, and audio channels have been balanced and boosted on the workprint (required a re-encode).

This is a soundboard recording from this tour. Complete with David Bowie's set as well. Terrible Lie does fade in. This recording was highlighted on RITC's Recording of the Week. It was rumored this was an ALD recording. But September 2015 saw the release of the actual transfer from the master DAT tape. This is a mono soundboard recording, as many PA systems are mono and hard for you to distinguish when hearing a live performance. Older versions of this recording that have been circulating were fake mono. Which means they created two channels to resemble it. An amazing piece to add to the archive!

Notes

Back in the late 2000s, there was a user on TheTradersDen by the name of Dave_Jr that had a lot of in house feeds from The Palace of Auburn Hills from the early 90s. There he shared some Pantera and Metallica in house feeds. They did this by having a VCR in one of the suites and recording the in house feed that way. This was done for many shows during that time period at The Palace. Sadly, many of them have gone unreleased. This was said to be one of them. Would love to add this to the archive.

Notes

This is the only source to come from this surprise show. Rhino Entertainment Company released a compilation CD with a few songs from industrial bands in 1999. One of the songs was "Gave Up" from this date. Because this was released on a record label, this will not be available for download. But you can find these CDs for cheap on Discogs if you would like to have the full track. I should note that this setlist may not be entirely accurate for this show.

Notes

This is the best video version that was also reworked by Kevin C. This is the best picture you will get for this performance, unless they release the original footage they captured. Blown away by the quality of what has been called NIN's best performance.

Notes

This is the full (and complete) version of the Woodstock 1994 performance. An audio engineer, Kevin C., has looked over the audio and has made the audio 10 times better than what it originally was. It is absolutely flawless. When you download this, you can read about his whole process of the mastering process.

Notes

This is ripped from the pay-per-view pro-shot video. This is from the original silver CD.

I had seen this on discogs with only a few people owning copies. Luckily, blackbookpress (who may have the biggest NIN media collection) kindly let me borrow the VHS tape to transfer. I was hoping that this would be the definitive tape that we could get our hands on. Sadly, the quality was rather potato. It looked as though Interscope also recorded this off the PPV feed. I was really hoping this would be the back haul feed recorded directly to VHS. I still find that source 1 is the best. But I wanted to add this for archival purposes. I did not even keep the transfer that I captured due to it being such poor quality.

Taken from YouTube of an interview that has some live snippets of the performance from Dusseldorf. Broadcasted on Kanal 4 Keynote program. I am hoping that there is possibly a recording out there somewhere in Kanal 4's archive.

Notes

Recently purchased a PAL VHS off eBay that had both the first and third night recordings on it. I initially bought it so that I could get the DAT master audio off one of the recordings. It's a bit confusing which one it is. Is the DAT master audio the first night? or the third night that is the soundboard audio? There are a lot of errors on the cover of the bootleg VHS, which was presumably bought in the Camden market. Both audio sources have some hiss to them. So I am not sure which one it really could be. The video itself is a 1st gen video of both shows. The soundboard audio is synced to this night, but the video does not sync up and drifts throughout. After listening back, this sounds the best out of all the versions of this London 94 soundboard. One thing that is off putting is that this seems to be mono sourced. But as I said, it has the least amount of tape hiss on it and sounds very clear. This video has an audience audio recording for Pinion and the encore break, which I swapped the 'Pinion' and encore break audio soundboard track from "Hammering It Home." So again, it seems like there are a few versions of this recording and I would love to find a definitive board feed of this show that would include Pinion and the encore break. Like mentioned below, the silver CDs are missing all of 'Happiness In Slavery' due to keeping it to one CD. The encore break is also truncated on this and does not include Trent's, "thank you" right before they start Dead Souls. Which I also added to this release. Makes me think this is why the video has drift issues because the audio itself is too short at points. Overall, I believe this is the most full recording of this show. If you know who may have the master tape of this soundboard recording, please get in contact. I have a few things I would swap for the definitive copy of this recording, if so. It has been noted that NIN did record all of these London Forum shows, maybe for the release of 'Closure' as I assume some of this footage did make it in to it. But I can't be certain.

Notes

Soundboard for the third night of the 3 night run in London. Very emotional set, and great sound from the recording. This is a cassette source from the soundboard recording. There is more hiss on this recording than the silver CDs, but the good thing about this version of the soundboard recording is that it is complete. "Happiness in Slavery" does not fade out. "Pinion" and until the first beat of "Terrible Lie" is audience sourced. Then it turns into the soundboard. A better version of this must circulate somehwere. Would love to obtain it for the archive.

Notes

Soundboard source. Both of the Silver CDs are identical, there is nothing different about them. Just the titles. Incomplete, show fades out durng the breakdown of "Happiness In Slavery." Show is full soundboard source, whereas the cassette sourced soundboard copy's of "Pinion" is audience sourced.

Absolutely blown away by this. Someone had just sent me the setlist and event details sheet via email. I posted it to Instagram and someone who followed the page tagged the DJ (Big Gordon) and he commented, "great night, I have the mixing feed on cassette." I didn't know if he was being full of it or legit. So I messaged them. They said it was in storage and they have no way of transferring it. At this point, I just tossed it up as a loss. Probably to never be heard. Maybe a week or so later, I got another message that they had indeed transferred it years ago and it was on a hard drive! Gordon sent over the raw 24bit/44.1kHZ transfer. Here is some info Gordon could add from the night. "Just to let you know the description says mics were cutting out ... They weren't. Trent and the boys were trashing the shit out of the equipment and the pops you hear etc are the mics being bounced about on stage - they also requested an industrial sized smoke machine which would have engulfed the room with one blast so the venue had to compromise with them. A lot of gear got wrecked with water being thrown about. Honestly, if they'd have gotten the spec they wanted of fog machine it would have probably rendered everyone unconscious. - 500 cap room but an arena sized machine, haha. After the show we took them all out to a local rock club which at that time was still big on all the 80s metal etc. The gig was just incredible. Like being in a gang fight to music." Now getting to the board feed. This is the only board feed available of "Now I'm Nothing." With there being no studio version of the song, this may be the closest thing we get. The quality is incredible. I hope that one day I will have the opportunity to transfer the tape. There was a lot of hiss on the cassette that could be reduced if on a proper deck with azimuth adjustment. The set is complete. Down In It was aborted, which the soundboard recording stops during that time. I have spliced in the audience tape from this show in to this release for that break. There is more stuff out there like this, I am sure. I do know of a San Francisco 1991 soundboard that I would love to preserve. Big thanks to Gordon for sharing this and allowing me to preserve this recording for the future. 30 years on, this finally sees the light. So amazing.

Notes

I received this FM1 copy from a european NIN trader. He got this from a person who taped this off the radio. This is a better copy than the one that is circulating around the internet at this point. The other copy of this tape was definitely sourced from a higher gen cassette. These songs also are featured on the silver CDs, "A Demon Possessed" and "Solid Gold Hell." Each one of these CDs have varying quality of these songs, or some are missing. This also includes the two part intervews with Trent. I personally think this is the best source. I hope that someone is able to transcribe what the announcer is saying in dutch? I would really appreciate it if someone could help.

Notes

This was taken from the Silver CD "A Demon Possessed." I assume this was used as filler for the bootleg CD. This is missing "Sin" from this radio broadcast. The FM rip we have on the archive is superior to this source, it also includes the interview with Trent.

Notes

This was taken from the Silver CD "Solid Gold Hell." This is from the same FM broadcast that I have on cassette. A few of these songs are cut at the beginning or the end of them. Hence, why the FM broadcast cassette is the superior source. Still, the sound is very good and this is more complete than "A Demon Possessed."
