My fucking magic 8 ball is broken.

Trent had said that they were not planning to "monetize" the 2009 tour with a physical DVD release. But, hey, that was before they decided to film these last shows, or even announced that they'd be playing them.

Personally, I'd like a concise "best of the Wave Goodbye tour" compilation, in multiple download options (from portable/iPod compatible all the way up to 1080p) with nominal charges for bandwidth costs. No need to duplicate the torrent-flood of LITS gift footage, or NIN's previous live releases.

It sounds as though there are more volumes of Ghosts and even a deluxe Fragile box set in the pipeline, so we'll be spoiled for choice of "fetish-y" physical products anyhow.

OMG! A Wave-Goodbye DVD in Blu-Ray would be amazing! I would totally buy that in a heart beat.

They filmed the shows, so I'm banking on a very comprehensive look at these final dates, including the insanity that was The Wiltern set. That's what I am expecting. It'll probably be in digital form, most likely. But we'll see.

Yeah, at the Wiltern, they were getting a shit-ton of footage. Rob's footage, from what I could see since I was front-center pit, looked uber awesome.

Do you think that TDS will be on there at all? It was only filmed the second time, and trent said that he HATED that performance. I hope we see it, because from the youtube vids I saw it was awesome.

I spoke to Trent at the London M&G. I asked about releasing the recent clips on vimeo in some way. He said they intended on recording the final shows and probably releasing footage on a dvd in some manner.

I could see a special package ala Ghosts. With a nice tour book, liner notes, The Wave Goodbye dvd (every unique song that was played would be nice, but that is asking a lot.)

I could see why Trent didn't want to do anything for NINJA, just go out and put on a good show, and enjoy the moment. But, they have all this officially filmed footage now.

Fragile multitracks would kick my ass 5000 ways of goodness! I said it in another thread, Trent had good things to say about that Arcade Fire 'dvd' release, I could see NIN making something better.

Rob's got his hands full for the next while.

when did he say that?

I'm surprised that there weren't official digital audio bootlegs of the shows like Tori Amos did with her American Doll Posse tour in '07.

Considering that all the shows except Webster were filmed, its pretty safe to say, YES.

I reckon their will be a DVD. I doubt they'll release the filmed shows as torrent files again, although interesting that wouldn't be as good as a DVD.

Ha yeah, and I don't think us as fans could take that again. Having to wait for someone to assemble a DVD.
But I am being excited for TOIOU's release still

Live DVD would be a nice send off. Maybe with a 5 min preview of what's next to come from reznor .

Im totally hoping for this to be HALO 28!!! And yes I really hope they release this on CD. alto of us fans just dont have the means of all this fan downloading content. I would be more than happy to put my money into trents pockets and buy whatever it is they choose to release. In fact, im sorta bummed that there isnt a cd for halo 22 beside you in time. that is one of the best performances ever. I know there are a handful of people that have the computer skills to get that shit on cd but theres also a handful of people who dont.

and another good idea, I was thinking that there should be a separate cd release, 2 disc most like considering these shows are 2 hours plus. and a separte dvd release similar just like halo 17 and all that could have been.

and heres also what im hoping for in addition to above, maybe release a nin only speacial collectors edition of like, ummm, all the shows on dvd or watever they were able to film that will not be in the regular release. but i wouldnt want it as these downloads, i would pay for shipping and all that shit. physical dvd's. WHOSE WITH ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If there's a mega super duper deluxe edition, I'll be all over it.

He also said that about the fragile performances, and we still got AATCHB. At least hes sober this time!

Good point. I was actually watching AATCHB in it's entirety today, and I love it. I prefer it over BYIT, to be honest.
