did anybody else notice that big dueshe bag in the pit, probably the tallest guy up in the front, bald guy...so annoying. He was probably drunk but he seemed like he couldn't hold his own weight and he just kept falling onto people, even during calmer songs.
He came falling towards me at one point and i moved out of the way and the guy fell on his ass,..so funny.

There was a guy with a professional camera in the pit trying to get some good footage and this big moron kept purposely putting his hands in front of the camera and giving the camera the middle finger. Thank you duesche bag for messing up what may have been really good footage on whatever medium they hopefully release it on.

I really hope that big tall bald assh*ole is not there tonight.

Yup I was immediately to the right of that monster. He was definitely "not all there". Had to keep dodging his falls in order to not be squashed underneath him. What an ass...

Excellent show, however. I was on the main floor, center, about 8-10 people back (right where the pit started). Awesome show and setlist. Looking forward to what's next from TR.

Im pretty sure he was on E. A lot of people we like that...they were way out of it and just leaning on anything with all their weight....A few people started to tell him off ....but magically 5 secs later they would be high fiving him so I guess he was nice

wow.



my first and last nin show...

but where to begin?

anyone else see Trent on the second tier, stage right, during the Horrors? He was checking them out up there and then took some girl to the back lol.

oh...and i was even fortunate enough to get the very last NYC poster...the guy even gave me the display one!


when Home came on, there was just an insane push of the entire crowd to the front. I was right by the support beam, about twenty-five feet from the stage, and then next thing i know i'm three feet from the stage, with my entire body weight being supported by everyone around me.

is that actually blood on Trent? it looked like peter murphy had "joker" like lipstick on and rubbed it off on Trent when he hugged him. idk though could be blood though...

the only thing I could have asked for was a/c. it looked like i had taken a dunk in the pool, i was so sweaty. to that guy who said his phone stopped working because he got so sweaty, the same thing happened to me!

highlights for me...terrible lie, motp, line begins to blur, reptile, TDTWWA, wish. but in the end, the entire show was a highlight for me.


trent, thank you so much. you are truly a pioneer of music. if there was a mount rushmore of music, you would be up there. thanks again and hope to hear some new stuff from you soon.

So we're pretty certain that was Kanye? I was on the top balcony for NIN stage left, and saw him as well.

Long shot, I'm sure, but if anyone has a show-specific t-shirt from this show that they're looking to sell, please PM me. I didn't get a chance to buy one and regret it, as it was probably my favorite of all of the NIN shows I've seen.

Reptile (With Peter Murphy)

The Way Out Is Through

The Big Comedown

The Line Begins To Blur

La Mer + Part of The Fragile

Obviously I wasn't there but I need to step in for a moment:

Any further inquiries or mentions about who Trent was with during the Horrors' set will find their posts edited and will receive a warning. This thread is about the show, not Trent's date. If you really want to know who she is, look at Trent's thread in NIN Discussion.

I got most of the setlist (www.youtube.com/godzillo) oh yeah and i have some great pictures of Kanye West at the show! was pretty funny when his security guard came and told me to stop taking pictures....

My girlfriend and I were to the left of you. Awesome show. Hope you had a good time the next night too.

I figure I might as well throw my 2 cents in too.

It was my 7th time seeing them and what a way to go out. 2.5 hours of non stop intensity. I couldn't have asked for more (ok, well maybe experiencing TDS in its entirety). Nevertheless, such an amazing set and an emotional last show for me.

Peter Murphy coming on to sing Reptile - even with him messing up the lyrics was just so clutch. I love the version they recorded a couple of years back when they toured with Bauhaus (they were at Jones Beach). Plus, Dead Souls with him on vocals was just ridiculously good.

All in all, it was such a memorable experience and I'm so happy I got to experience it one more time. I thought the Wave Goodbye tour at Jones Beach earlier in the summer would be my last time seeing them and that was an overall weak show. I'm glad they came back and went out in style.

Oh, and not to mention Kanye West hanging out and actually rocking out and knowing the words to some of the songs. My perception of him is that he's an asshole, but at least he still makes time for quality music and that can be appreciated.

nice work morgrar

I had a really good time at the show. I asked on the upcoming shows forum if I would be able to see anything. Somehow I was able to get right up at the front, although it was all the way over on the side. It gave me a great vantage point for Robin, which was a real treat, and then I could also see Ilan flailing away at times, which is more mindboggling than anything else. And Trent would come back and play keyboards, so I got a great view.

People were nice from start to finish. The club staff, the other patrons, the people I spoke with before the show. Thanks to Loren the photographer for the earplugs--I never would have been able to make it had it not been for his kindness. And the one security guy who let me drink out of his water bottle without my having to ask. I thought the T5 staff were the exact opposite of the pricks at a HoB gig.

I'd seen the show in Philly exactly a year before. And I was upset that I didn't go to the AC HoB show the next night, because of what I missed. I felt like I made it up to myself for being at the show on Tuesday.

Also, New Yorkers are nice. Everyone was friendly, whether I was at the show or on the street. Poor natives must get asked for directions, but they were really friendly to me. And I feel really safe in New York no matter what time of day it is. I wish I could feel that safe in my own city.

Wasn't really crazy about Peter Murphy on Reptile, because it's soooooo damn good live, but as a Bauhaus fan from way back, what the hell. I was wishing for a Third Uncle, myself.

Last but not least, sorry to Rob. He was trying to get past me, and I didn't see his camera. He'd asked about standing where I am, not trying to get past me, and I thought he was just trying to switch places with me. Didn't recognize him until after he made it past the security line at the side of the stage and I saw his camera. Once I apologized after seeing he was a photographer, he was very gracious about it. At the beginning, I thought he was just trying to get me to give up that space.

Hey guys. this was my 3rd NiN Show
once at MSG and then Bowery and now Terminal 5. AMAZING SHOW

SO tired and hungry after the show, it was like i was rebirthed!

anyway

here are pictures i took:

I had a great time!! I have been to alot of shows as well as been around many musicians (my 3rd NIN) and I have to say that NIN always puts on a great show. Considering the amount of touring, the constant changing of set lists, and the ability to continuously satisfy everyone, the members of NIN are incredible musicians. Very few musicians can make their songs evoke more feeling and emotion than the music recorded, NIN always does. Oh, and how happy was I to see the show in a club!?!?!? I hate arena shows and I hate to be told to stay in my seat

I was impressed with the ticketless process. I was very doubtful and had fears of standing outside the venue for hours. I started in line at 6:50 and was inside pretty quick considering the ticket line was a block and a half long when I started.

Also, watching Kanye West rock out to every song was great. I love seeing artists from other genres enjoy music not stereo-typical to their style, I have a newfound respect for him!

One more thing, NIN fans are the nicest fans going. Everybody in line was conversing like old friends. Everybody inside was super friendly, maybe I go to too many metal shows......

spent most of the night on the second balcony. i'll post some other videos later, but here's survivalism from the view up top.
