I am thinking on suggesting you a group named "Femme fatale". It is a really good Spanish group with two LP out.They have few followers but their music is really good. Please, listen their music, sure you like it! (specially the last album, which has the same title “Femme fatale”. You can find it at emule superstore) Of course, I want to clarify, I am only a fan of the group, I don’t have any economical or any other interest on it. www.femmefatale.es

They didn't even open in Toronto and it's their hometown. By all accounts they don't translate well into arenas, as for openers when the NIN guys are in Europe, I'd loooove to see Pendulum open up for them: [www.youtube.com] [www.youtube.com] If that doesn't get you in the mood, I don't know what will, translate well live aswell. pendulum would b pretty beast openeing for them, but they've got such an intense show already i doubt they'd like to open for anybody, anyone who gets the chance should see them Pendulum are well known for doing practically anything as long as the pay is right, thats why they've been at practically every festival this year and even performed at Warwick University's freshers ball. I wouldn't put it past them opening for NIN, I don't think it's likely, but then QOTSA did and QOTSA are biggger than Pendulum IMHO.

Thats what happened at the recent cleveland show, Nickolas Migalais opened and was quite impressive. I personally love all openers I've seen play for NIN, even though some people around me in the pit are like "wtf is this??". It exposes you to new aspects and different types of music.

They were absolutely fabulous, and their frontman had oodles of goth charisma. 'I'm sorry if my voice sounds bad,' this dude goes. 'It's broken, just like my heart.' that was 'The Follow', or as they are now called 'theart'

Antakrt member Joined: 02/29/08 Posts: 184	See you are all expecting trent to pick already established bands to open for him, when I think the point is to: a) expose your fanbase to new music and artists that you enjoy (I got into APTBS because of the tour, they were great) b) get exposure for a widely lesser known band and help them out through your success. I also got into Boris because of their announcement on the tour, they're REALLY fucking good and i'm kinda pissed I dont get to see them live (c'est la vie.) my two cents again.

They have a blatant disregard for record companies to the point that they used to refuse to allow record company reps backstage after shows. --That was BEFORE they had a record deal. Their music kicks ass, and although different from NIN, has it's own sort of vibe going on that could work well for an opening act. Of course, some of you will think I'm crazy. but there's my two cents.

Did you know that NIN was the opening band for Skinny Puppy on tour for a few shows in 1988? Apparently they weren't happy with the quality of NIN's performances.

They are a smaller type band whos release follows a story and have a good stage look. And the songs are a mix of everything. everyone, even trent if he looks at these, check out The Protomen

icklekitty member Joined: 11/27/07 Location: London Posts: 919	Kudos for the thread idea! This is something they might actually take into account, I think. Erykah Badu Soulwax We Are Scientists Yelle Justice Fuck Buttons The Kiss-Off Some are already quite established acts, but I think NIN could pull off having them as support, if Ladytron were considered the right size sort of band. Also, I think Gary Numan is enough of a fanboy to do it willingly.
