wazzup posted: nope, no giant display this time. that was for the lights in the sky tour. still, the show will be more mind-blowing than most current performances. 
but the cool thing about the 'stripped-down' approach is that the set lists have gotten more diverse. for the first time he's playing stuff like bowie's i'm afraid of americans and stuff from the still EP.
i doubt he'll ever play the perfect drug, though. even at this phase.  Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 05/26/2009 08:45PM by fishkiller. | |

^^ None... But some decades ago Top 40 is selling some NIN "Sin" & "Now I'm Nothing"shirts, I just don't know if they are still selling those ... I think T.Rizzle and co. will offer some NIN merch on the concert itself ( I want some NIN slip and wave Goodbye shirts
 ) so start saving some bucks hehe! | |
Ashburndaride posted: same here! i think those wave goodbye shirts will be the first to go. i also hope they have some ghosts shirts.
fakeplastiklungs posted: aside from those top 40 shirts ash mentioned, i don't think there are any for sale. (at least ones that aren't bootlegs!) if you order online, it costs 5 - 10 dollars to ship. but they're really worth it. my spiral shirt is pretty vivid. you can also find a lot of info on the current merch here: [www.echoingthesound.org] just ignore the jane's addiction and sssc merch, and you'll have a good idea what to expect.

Argh, its going to be a pain to hunt down a shirt my size. The US smalls are HUGE!
Something like this (posted on ETS) for Manila would be great: 
If they sell shirts here, I'm guessing they'd be pretty pricey if the US prices are to go by. $35-40 is around P1600-1900! Better start starving, just in case... Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 06/04/2009 09:38AM by migsev. | |
migsev posted: you can just have them altered. that's what i did to my old baggy clothes from the 90s. or you can bulk up. hey, it worked for trent.

Ashburndaride posted:i'm not sure if they were handpicked, but IF they were, ASTIG! here's splintr's reply to me vial twitter: thanks! NIN wants the opening act to be as different from them as possible. :-) i was also expecting at the back of my mind that sandwich will open the show. and raims will do his trent-covering-robin's-eyes-while-playing-guitar-during-closer-solo to either mong or diego hahaha but i'm so stoked to know that pupil will play. i haven't seen them live. and i saw the 'heads back in '99 and that was the first and last time i saw them play. i was too young then and can't go to gigs hehe | |
hyneria posted: Pupil is great on studio but I'm not impressed to them when Live, you know how Ely sounds during live, But It's a Good deal seeing this 2 great band merge in one night concert, a really lucky break for Pupil.. Galingan sana nila baka mapansin pa ni Trent ang talent nila and produce a Pupil Album  , We all know that Trent loves Filipino's nowadays | |
hyneria posted: yup, trent did indeed pick pupil himself. the splintr guys sent samplers of potential bands, and it was pupil that caught trent's ears. kudos to ely and the boys. it must mean a lot to get the thumbs up from the alpha nail. (ahem, sorry i said that) | |
fishkiller posted:WOW GALING! Do you happen to know who were the other potential bands? Just curious hehe sana may pangbili na ako ng ghosts DE bago sila pumunta rito. magkano inabot ng gastos mo with shipping? was it thru post office or delivered to your doorstep? | |

faspitch was also in the running.
i like pupil more, but props to the faspitch guys. the fact that they were even considered means a lot.
i had ghosts shipped to a friend in the states, tapos dinala nalang pag uwi. i was forced to do that because artist in residence over-charges shipping. ash and i made a group-buy for the regular edition of ghosts, and they charged us 13 dollars for shipping per CD to the philippines! but normally, i have my stuff shipped through old-fashioned postal service. the best ang post office sa may north avenue, hehe. my suggestion would be to get your copy from ebay, since may chance na mas mura ang shipping. my estimate for DE would be around 20-30 dollars. it's pricey, pero mas mura siya kesa sa AIR which initially charged me 50 dollars for shipping.
