- scallon, on 07/08/2009, -1/+52So now I have to compete with everyone in the three most populated cities in the country for tickets to a handful of "small to medium" shows? fuuuuuuuucccckkkkkk
; - WiretapStudios, on 07/08/2009, -0/+35From the NIN.com website:
Getting right to the point, we're going to play a handful of shows in NYC, Chicago and LA starting August 22nd. They will be informal affairs in medium to small venues with longer set-lists, possible special guests, cool openers and other surprises. Upon reflection, the NIN/JA tour felt like we had to rush through sets due to a limited allotted set length and many shows were in daylight - it just didn't feel right to end NIN that way. An offer to headline V-Fest in Toronto (being announced soon) set the idea in motion to play some FUN shows to end this up with. If we can get it together we'll film these shows, too.
In NYC we'll be playing Bowery Ballroom, Webster Hall and Terminal 5. In Chicago, the Aragon Ballroom. In LA we'll be at The Wiltern, The Henry Fonda, The Palladium and The Echoplex. These should be cool, unusual and unique shows and I hope you come out - this is it.
So far, The Horrors will be joining us for some shows in NYC, Mew will be with us at other shows in NYC, Chicago and LA, and perhaps more.
Details and ticket info will be announced shortly, so check back.
Thanks,
Trent - WiretapStudios, on 07/08/2009, -2/+33I've seen them 3 times in the last year or so, and every show was fantastic...if you didn't catch them on the last leg, I'd def recommend them. It isn't a goth-fest or anything, each time was just a ton of regular people / music fans having a great time.
- thejackyl, on 07/08/2009, -0/+27If you haven't seen NIN live, do so. They put on a fantastic show.
- SittinSidewayz, on 07/08/2009, -1/+19Yet is still strong almost to 2010, whats your point exactly?
- Konstantino, on 07/08/2009, -1/+18This is it? Aw man, NIN's been great. Hope they go out with a bang.
- rambamslam, on 07/08/2009, -9/+23ALL HAIL TRENT REZNOR
- ThinkIcouldburn, on 07/08/2009, -0/+13Shh.... at this point I want to discourage as many people as possible. I need to get tickets to these shows and there's venues as small as a 550 limit. (Bowery Ballroom)
They're terrible. Horrible. Worst band ever.
Just stay home. Don't buy tickets. Or even better, try to buy me some tickets. - bat-21, on 07/08/2009, -1/+14"I can quit whenever I want". *****. I've never seen a "farewell" tour stick. There'll be no more NIN when Trent drops dead and not a second before.
- SittinSidewayz, on 07/08/2009, -1/+14Mediocre band is surely your opinion, that's fine I disagree with you wholeheartedly. Little popularity? Since when does popularity mean anything? You should know it doesn't mean anything and with that said the band has been pretty damn popular for the past 20 years; you're not going to find too many of those these days.
Just because you don't like the band doesn't mean you have attempt to put it down with incorrect statements. - inactive, on 07/08/2009, -0/+11A NIN-AFI comparison?
Yeah..buried. - twishart, on 07/08/2009, -0/+10oh man, you know who's AWESOME?
NICKELBACK - InsomniacAgent, on 07/08/2009, -0/+8AFI isn't really the defining angst-core band of today. I think the whole emo "genre" is to that effect.
- pstroll, on 07/08/2009, -13/+20Just like The Who and their many farewell tour$
- leethemanpowell, on 07/08/2009, -1/+8Was I the only one who read "But wait -- There's more!" in Billy Mays' voice?
- copypastry, on 07/08/2009, -1/+8slowpoke.jpg
- andrewlotta, on 07/08/2009, -3/+10Sup Trent?
- Harbinger67, on 07/08/2009, -1/+7I think he should do a free gig in Cleveland...appropriate AND ironic.
- Dgen_X, on 07/08/2009, -0/+6Went and saw NIN and Jane's Addiction when there were here in Detroit, NIN came on first...at an outdoor venue...with the sun shining directly on the stage
And even though Jane's Addiction put on one hell of a show...I still would have preferred to see NIN close out the night...in the dark...with a slightly longer set. - DrvThruPnk, on 07/08/2009, -1/+6NOOO! Don't say "This is It"...that's the same thing Michael Jackson said!
- protonone, on 07/08/2009, -0/+5Even though I doubt this is it for NiN, I'm glad Trent went out on top. The Slip and Ghosts I-IV is some of the best music I have heard in a long time.
- Jaq524, on 07/08/2009, -0/+4Unforgettable, really. Trent is a great singer live and chooses the best musicians that are able to beautifully translate his sampled, electronic songs into killer guitar/keyboard/drum parts for live performances. Combine that with some of the coolest lighting and other effects possible today, and the only word for it really is "unforgettable".
- MrJ777, on 07/08/2009, -1/+5Thats the dumbest thing I've read today
- burningrobot, on 07/08/2009, -2/+5I was at Bonnaroo but I missed NIN. When I found out that was their last US show I was kinda bummed, but now it's not so bad.
- roxgod666, on 07/08/2009, -0/+3Why must you be the way you are?
- inactive, on 07/08/2009, -0/+3Chicago is ready for round two.....
I was pissed i missed Bonnaroo. This makes up for it. - Crazyredivan, on 07/08/2009, -0/+3NIN + The Horrors would be an amazing show...I will be diligently waiting for ticket info.
- thejackyl, on 07/08/2009, -0/+3The light show they had for the Lights In The Sky tour was phenomenal.
- Plastikdust, on 07/08/2009, -1/+4Please don't go out like KISS, who after 10 years, are still on their farewell tour.
- Coven, on 07/08/2009, -0/+3no JA, not the same tour....technically
- twishart, on 07/08/2009, -0/+3I know I'm in the minority, but I really got into NIN during The Fragile - and while I'm not the biggest fan of his earlier work (not saying it's bad, I just like the newer stuff), I think his work over the past 10 years has been mindblowing. Great, great stuff - and it's pretty clear this won't be the end of Trent making music, it just won't be under the NIN moniker.
- thejackyl, on 07/08/2009, -1/+4You would be wrong
- inactive, on 07/08/2009, -4/+6Too soon?
...
Yeah, too soon. - 7m7uf, on 07/08/2009, -0/+2Yep, i listen to the live audio from LITS tour and it's like i'm there again. Simply amazing all around.
- Zanrook, on 07/08/2009, -4/+6God damnit Trent.
Who gives a hoot about janes or street sweeper, I wish it was only NIN at the show I went to, hell I'd attend a week straight show of only NIN :) - dexx4d, on 07/08/2009, -0/+2Would be nice to see the show one last time. We went out of our way to catch the last NIN tour because we knew things were winding down and it was worth the trip.
- jeffwmartin, on 07/08/2009, -0/+2How many records have you sold?
- 7m7uf, on 07/08/2009, -0/+2Hope so.
- techlinks, on 07/08/2009, -1/+3Sucks I'm not going to see them.
Why is it every time I pick a "favourite" band they break up or go on hiatus. Seriously...three in a row here. - wondertwins, on 07/08/2009, -0/+2Trent is jacked
- wentwj, on 07/08/2009, -0/+2NiN has been hot ***** on the internet ever since Trent started self releasing musing with Ghosts I-IV and The Slip.
- celotil, on 07/08/2009, -0/+2"Don't you ***** know what you are?!"
- WaCkYmAk, on 07/08/2009, -0/+1Saw them at Merriweather. Street Sweeper Social Club was unreal and followed up by the best show I've seen Trent do in a decade. Jane's was optional at best. Disappointed, no need for a farewell tour part 2
- hackiavelli, on 07/08/2009, -1/+2Pretty Hate Machine was released in 1989. No way AFI has that kind of staying power let alone raw musical talent.
- robertisaar, on 07/08/2009, -0/+1The Who? try the rolling stones...
- valimar77, on 07/08/2009, -0/+1NIN = great music, great talent, nuff said.
- Maghook, on 07/08/2009, -0/+1I hope to god they make a detour to Australia after they're done in Tokyo...
I have never seen NIN in concert, and it would be the perfect start to my first one ever.
I am so sad I missed them last time. - jgaspar, on 07/09/2009, -0/+1they all look like the same pale, depressed, mommy wont pay attention to me ***** losers.
- inactive, on 07/09/2009, -0/+1That's what Trent said
