8242, Anyone ever seen NIN live? Posted by ScreaminE, Apr-26-06 03:42 AM
They are coming to Charlotte June 10th and I want to see them pretty bad.
I'm a pretty big fan. I've listened to the pretty hate machine CD at least 500 times.
Just wondering if anyone has seen them and what you thought about the show.

I saw them back at the end of February in Ft.Wayne, Indiana at the Coliseum.
Let me tell you this, the performance was unbelievable. They played a hour and a half set NONSTOP. Not one single intermission...and they played just about every classic NIN song there could be. The lighting and sound couldn't have been any better also.
If you can get tickets GO! You won't be dissapointed. These guys still appreciate their fans and are definately still inspired to go above and beyond their past performances.

I saw them on their Fragile tour in the spring of 2000 and I saw them again in November '06 on the With Teeth tour. Best concerts of my life. I am a little biased though since NIN is my favorite band.
Try to get on the floor if you can. It is an entirely different experience.

My first concert ever. I was 14. 1994. Downward Spiral tour in Milwaukee.
I was spoiled for life after that.

You can very quickly balance that out by going to see the next Van Halen reunion tour live. That concert sucked so hard, its been over a year, and I still mention how bad it sucked at every opportunity.

I saw them a few months ago (December to be exact) at Kroqs Almost Acoustic XMAS. They put on a GREAT SHOW! However, they retired early because the guitarist (forget his name) threw a hissy-fit and knocked over his speaker cabinet and then broke his guitar on the floor. They went a couple songs without guitar and then all just walked off the stage confused. BOOs were heard all over. I have the video from that concert of HURT (Awesome performance). And a lot of pictures. If anyone wants to see them let me know.

My friends turned gay on me and decided they would rather see Tom Petty instead.
Don't get me wrong, I love Tom Petty, but NIN is the fucking best band ever, period.
Head like a hole changed my life.

i saw them last summer in atlanta. best show i have ever seen as well. i'm going again on june 7th this year, also in atlanta. visually, NIN produces the best shows in the world; audially, NIN produces the best shows in the world. but i also am a little biased i suppose, they are my favorite band as well.
luckily, even though its the "with teeth" tour this time around, they are refraining from playing too many of the shitty songs from that album and are still representing TDS, the fragile, and PHM pretty well, as they are leaps and bounds ahead of "with teeth." in fact, i'll take the "Broken" EP over "with teeth" if i have to pick one of the two albums to take to a deserted island.

I saw them when A Perfect Circle opened for them in Philly
best show ever.
only down side is when they intentionally botched the piano keys at the end of Closer, its my favorite part of the song and trent just pounded the keys instead of playing it. APC played like an hour non stop, then nails played for nearly 2 and a great mix of all their music.
oh, and my best friend josh I went (along with 2 chicks \/\/o0t!!) and he did the most retarded-est dance to head like a hole that I razz him about to this day.
still yeah, best show ever. I mean I dont have alot of things to compare it to...
Fiona Apple had a good show, but alot of lesbo hippies;
Tori Amos concert..man the things you'll do to try and hook up with a bi-sexual girl, nothing but full on lesbos and I didnt even get lucky;
Black Sabbath rocked hard, but I was just too fucking close to the speakers and was deaf for 4 days after;
Ive been to some others but I dont feel like embarassing myself any further
