Ok, this is sickening...retarded even. This is my first post since the show...wanted to see what people thought of it. I shouldn't have even logged on. Only got to pg 3/6 listed...why all the bitching, complaining, fighting? Jeezus people, really!
My thoughts will be scattered throughout as it comes to me so please bear w/me.
First, I read that the tech dude is ok...rad. Secondly, yes...FUCK THAT LASER POINTER GUY!!! Asshole! HEALTH was ok...it was experimental noise rock. If you don't get it, go buy a $9 beer & wait for NIN. Trent brings out openers that HE deems worthy of a shot at exposure cuz obviously HE'S a fan of whoever he takes out. So shut the fuck up. I thought Deerhunter sucked in Knoxville but didnt rag them out completely (I don't think). Trent must see something in them. To those who think they're owed a photo op or unplanned meet/greet...get your heads outta your asses. They got places to go. And Trent, Rob, or any of them don't drive the bus so if they don't stop, unload the bus, and give you a private sidewalk performance, fuck it. I've been a fan since the BEGINNING - yes, kids, WAY before "Closer" - saw them only 5x ('94, '05, '06, '08x2) and never met ANY of the lineups. So? Some people here think that since they have every Halo, seen every show ever played, and clear out the merch tables, that they are bigger fans. Please. It's all in the spirit of the music. And the setlist...the man has a shit ton of material out there. He cant just keep adding on to a previous list w/every new release. Sure, there's several songs I'd love to have heard but they didn't play them. Guess what? I enjoyed every song that WAS played. It is a privelige seeing them AGAIN on Halloween. Wish the crowd was more into it. I do hope the TN crowds don't deter NIN from returning soon. Halloween '05 & Knox '06 were seemingly better crowds. And maybe if people acted right, more bands would play TN, meaning more exposure to shit for some of these sheltered rednecks who might then stop going to shows they don't belong at just for "something to do". Make sense? Didn't think so. Anyway, we are all fans here - for the most part - so we should stop bitching about the stupid shit and get out there and find the Laserfag and burn out his retinas.
I know this is scattered...hope some smartasses don't wanna pick shit w/me over my opinions.
Trent, Robin, Alessandro, Josh, and Justin...KICK ASS GIG!!! Thank you very much.
