We do have a really great group of folks coming to this show. As the others have said, just come on out and play nice. I'm a new kid too - at least on these forums, but everybody's been very welcoming. Can't wait for the tailgate!

Anybody from Cleveland going to the show and have room for one more? I need to hitch a ride and I have an extra ticket. Any help would be great!

Buying the spray paint for the Shutter Shades today. The glasses came in a variety of colors (Green, Red, Purple, Blue), but we've decided to spray paint them white for that iconic "I'm-the-voice-of-a-generation-but-too-busy-to-Twitter" look.

I'm flipping out atm. There are so many little details that I have questions about, but I'm keeping myself in check with the realization that this whole awesome thing will just have to play out the way it's going to.

I can't wait to meet you guys, and get this tailgate under way. Rain or shine, I will be there with the glasses. Don't hesitate to seek me out. I'll be collecting video of people saying hello to Eric, wishing him the best, etc. We'll be sending it to Veronica once we're back home.

FUCK'S SAKE, CAN THIS HAPPEN SOONER ALREADY?!?! BWAAAAAAAAAAALLLLRGHHH!!!


Awesome idea on the video!! I bought a Get Well / Recovery card that I'm bring with me. I thought we could all sign it and someone could take a group picture of us. I'll get the print made of the pic and send it and the card to Eric....from the Charlotte, NC NIN Tailgaters. Dee

I had one a few nights ago where I made it all the way down there (6 hour drive) and had forgotten my ticket and receipts!

To prevent such a catastrophe I am already running around frantically packing, putting things into rows and generally making sure everything is in order. 3 more days!

^^ oh wow lol. ive had dreams like that....put it beside the doorso theres now way you can forget it!!!

The Spiral is a now-defunct fan club started by Trent a few years ago. The membership package included a Spiral t-shirt, With_Teeth poster with lyrics, and an ID card. I'm a card-carrying NINnie!

Yeah, I'm a little concerned myself, since it seems like we'll be outside for quite some time.

I'll get myself a little plastic document holder for my receipts and stuff, I guess. Plan for the worst, hope for the best. They're currently saying 40% chance, so it may not be bad. smiling smiley

Edit: HOLY SHIT!! Corporate Hitman actually posted something!!! NIN Lyrics are always good.

If we can get the back of a parking lot ... might be able to rustle up some overhead tarps if we end up needing them. Even if it doesn't rain, might be good for some shade action.

That is a maybe ... working on it. Just trying to cut down on the worrying ... *smiles*

Well, if the rain holds off until AFTER the shows starts, we should be fine. Apparently there were tornado sirens going off all around us at Indy, and I had no idea! I did notice it raining really hard on the lawn at one point, looked pretty rough. I've been drenched and freezing at a concert more times than I care to count, so I just patted myself on the back for getting covered seats, wished them all luck, and turned back around.

On the other hand, two of my most incredible concert moments were bad weather related. In 2002 or 2003, we saw Peter Gabriel at Chastain in Atlanta with huge storm clouds all around us. That venue, while absolutely lovely, has a strict curfew, so a break would have been terrible. During Digging in the Dirt, I swear there was lightning all around us, scary, but the best light show EVER. As we were walking out to the parking lot afterward, the sky opened up. I could not have planned it better. Then before NIN in Columbus, OH, in 2006, we were on the lawn when Bauhaus was playing. It was raining and cold, but seeing the lightning during Severance was also unbelievable. And from what I hear, there were some pretty amazing pyrotechnics last time NIN played Charlotte!

All will be well. I'm already getting the packing paranoia though, we're leaving tomorrow night so we can chill before TV on the Radio!

Peace.

 

06/09/09 11:20 AM

All will definitely be well. We'll be heading down first thing Friday, and will check into our hotel before heading out to the tailgate. I'm planning on picking up some soft drinks for those who don't drink. winking smiley

My boy Alex (Negro_Joe on these boards) is flying in tonight from New Orleans to accompany me to Charlotte. This is gonna be a blast.

Rain rain go away, come again another day.


Kinda like a cloud I was up way up in the sky and I was feeling some feelings you wouldn't believe
Sometimes I can't believe them myself and I decided I was never coming down
Just then a tiny little dot caught my eye it was just about too small to see
But I watched it way too long and that dot was pulling me down

I was up above it
Now I'm down in it

Well shut up so what what does it matter now
I was swimming in the haze now I crawl on the ground
And everything I never liked about you is kind of seeping into me
Try to laugh about it now but isn't it funny how everything works out
("I guess the joke's on me," she said)

I was up above it
Now I'm down in it

I used to be so big and strong
I used to know my right from wrong
I used to never be afraid
I used to be somebody
I used to have something inside
Now just this hole that's open wide
I used to want it all
I used to be somebody

I'll cross my heart and hope to die but the needle's already in my eye
And all the world's weight is on my back and I don't even know why
And what I used to think was me is just a fading memory
I looked him right in the eye and said "goodbye"

I was up above it
Now I'm down in it

You just made me smile and giggle out loud smiling smiley and while I listen to the thunder outside....

 

06/09/09 11:48 AM

My hubby is letting me bring some of his wet weather gear like tent/tarp things I will bring 3 large umbrellas too and what else we have. I'll ask some other friends too but they all are army so the tarps will be camo lol

 

06/09/09 11:50 AM

I'm so fucking excited for this show! I'm flying out from New Orleans, LA and joining Captain Molotov, thus making this concert way more awesome for me than before. Plus, if we somehow manage to swing TV On The Radio as a warm up to NIN/JA that would only be icing on the mother fucking cake!!
