LASTEST INFO ON NIN @ OXEGEN 2009 !!!!!


NIN headlines Stage 2 at Oxegen in Ireland on Sunday the 12th of July 2009!!!! I'm elated, and over the moon about this!!!!!!! This is pure class!!!!! thumbs up

The Killers, Razorlight, and Lady Gaga headline Stage 1. This will make the event more intense for us NIN inclined, while Stage 1 will filter out all the victims that overdose on music tailored for the masses. the finger smiley

So that leaves a very interesting line-up of NIN, Jane's Addiction, The Ting Tings, Katy Perry, White Lies, Starsailor, You me at Six[/b], and [b]The horrors. smoking smiley

I guess there is no reason to go to London's O2, or Amterdam (Holland) now. I think Oxegen 2009 is a real must for all those NIN inclined now!!!!!!!!!!!! If you haven't got your ticket for the festival now, RUN & GET IT NOW, don't just sit there, gooooooo noooooow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This will make all the difference now for those worried about idiots that are too mentally challenged, or never know what its like to have music truelly lift ya to another level emotionally. I feel sorry for those victims who are music fashion fans, for music created by record labells for the masses.

With Trent, we all know he doesn't give a fuck for no one , will never compromise his music, and never pander to over-commersialise his music just to sell a few albums more. FACT. thumbs up

I hope to see a real Irish NIN massive there, and if I was to drop dead there, at least I will be home.cool smiley

Regard NIN discibles,

P.s - Thanks - Trevorc187 for the heads-up on the listing, cheers.

....will never compromise his music, and never pander to over-commersialise his music just to sell a few albums more. FACT.

oh now, I could give you a few better reasons to go to amsterdam than too see nin.


"over-commersialise" for some reason Tomb Raider springs to mind, as well as Apple, and actually that dumb recent movie "Wanted", oh yeah and nearly forgot ...OXEGEN, (i'm not allowed to mention or criticise adverts either, as I was very recently told by a mod) NIN is a major brand.

Ya,

I think i can guess maybe two reasons going to Amsterdam would be worth while, so i would never suggest that this quaint city would not be worth visiting in the future, and good luck to anyone who's game enough to go & see NIN there (that's loyality).

Yes, I know and admit that Oxegen is definately over-commersialised, but i don't thing that NIN is just a brand. First of all, Trent is very committed to the NIN faithful, and NIN is really a registered trademark.

If Trent exploted the fans like Metallica did in 1993, when they released a 3-CD boxset called 'Live Shit: Binge & Purge', which cost 100 punts at the time, then i would be massively disappointed with the direction of the band.

Also, other musicians have offered their albums free to download, but the catch is, that u must donate to charity. This is just a bit to explotive for me, and maybe too explotive of them to get promotion association to charities.

Even the like of REM, U2 and other groups have pandered to, exploiting politics to increase their own rep. and profile.

Did you see Bono at Obama's inauguration, and REM's promotion of Kerry. Not that i am siding with american republicans..

I think nails are still in the bracket of 'cult group', i haven't come across many nails fans since i took them up in 93-94, no one of the same passion, which as been frustrating, but this site brings us all together, and thats a positive thang.

I've come across so many idiots that think 'hurt' sung by Johnny Cash in his beautiful cover, was his own song and not of Trent original work from the TDS. And they refuse to accept this, and give my hero any cred!.

By the way, they're mostly 'Queen of the Stoneage' fans, other wise known as 'Rip-off rifts F.C'. They start there songs with hendrix and clapton rifts, end the intro guitar solos abruptly, and then conviently drone on with there boring material. Just my opinion, no offense..

Regards Edz.

P.s - I'm sure you have something to question me about, hope i haven't erked u in a bad way.

"Cult groups" don't sell out multiple 15,000 seat arenas in a matter of hours.

And if you haven't come across any nails fans in 15years of being a fan....

....look harder! winking smiley

edz - it won't let me PM you.
"The user you want to send a message to could not be found. Please check the name and try again."

Sorry, I was agreeing with you. How can I get in touch?

Perhaps my original message should have been phrased slightly differently.

Ed has been destroyed by the higher powers here at nin.com

Reason: apparently free speech is not allowed here.

Fuck all you mini-Hitlers. I mean that.

Ya, what i failed to get across was that i meant 'cult group' as not mainstream contrary to the wide-range massive appeal that a band like The Rolling Stones, U2, and maybe even Madonna still as.

I got into NIN when they were a real 'cult band' (i'm not saying that makes me better than anyone else, but that is a reason why they appealed to me).

Yes, they have moved on alot from then, and i really hope they can increase their global fan base even more. thumbs up

But back then, i loved the fact that i was one of very few that really knew how great NIN were. I knew only one other fan in Dublin '94, his name garvan, we went to college in Athlone back then, and no one understood us or NIN back then. smoking smiley

So forgive me if i'll still a little sceptical about global fanbase at the moment.
I just believe people must have first loved nails and their 'cult image' status at first, and there is definately just something more cool about 'cult status'. Now, people are offended by the word 'cult', but i have always viewed that word as a 'badge of honour'. thumbs up

Yes, NIN are getting massive attention by an increasing fanbase, but the fact that I don't think Trent feels the urge to 'court the media', or pander to their questions, just may curtail NIN from becoming more mainstream, yes -no??

Anyway, I think maybe Trent & NIN want to conquer the globe by his music, not with the aid of propagandic media (which as we know, are very fickle).

This is very noble and ultimately, the purest form of success, where NIN will be able to maintain global success for as long as they want. cool smiley

Regards NIN Disciples.

P.s. - i should have known i'd open a can of worms with my last comments!!!

I think NIN are well entitled, by now, to take an the globe, they've come along way from 'Dead Souls' on the movie The Crow soundtrack!!!!!

 

05/21/09 1:03 PM

To Mutilated,

I'm always game for a bit to eat, or visual entertainment. Maybe we could rehash [b]'The Crow'[/b] movie again sometime?

One catch, your profile doesn't state whether you like to watch 'football' or watch the movie 'Dirty Dancing'. Whether you use to play with the doll 'Action man' or 'Barbie'. Or whether you would prefer to 'join the army' or 'join the navy'??????
.
I don't have much to go on, but if assuming that we are 'on the straight and narrow', we, u, I or any of the Irish NIN massive - must hook-up at Oxegen.

If you want that movie or pizza, send me a PM. I'll check back 2moro.

How's everybody? Edz banned, there's a surprise. Pity in the end it was for something pretty mild. Big bangs are a lot more fun.

Go see Star Trek, it's great.

Vince, are you like 12? You talk about NIN the way my son talks about Fall Out Boy.

I'm still sketchy on the detail behind what actually got Edz banned. I'll email him.

Hi all - long time no postie. I'm just not a nin.commer I guess, I miss the sanctum that was the Spiral. Hope you are all ok. Anyone (apart from Bod) going to Manchester/London?

Seems to be the general feeling....

 

05/27/09 6:27 PM

Yea I miss the exclusivity of the Spiral. This place is a wee bit too public, and all that that implies.

I wasn't offended at all! It just gave me a feeling that you were shouting at everyone every time you wanted to point out something. Don't worry, nobody misses the important parts in your messages =]

Hi Tantrum,
I was meant to go to London, but realised I cannot afford 2 trips (Oxegen and London). I'd say London gig will be special!

I just can't imagine all that indie c*** on the same stage as NIN and JA, and all that crowd makes me cringe...

Me too, I think that they should at least make the viewing of the forums private.

 

05/27/09 6:49 PM

BRING BACK EDZ!!!!!!!

hmmm, I wonder what/who banned him. Tantrum, let us know when you find out! I'll try getting that info too =]

That clears alot up, i don't need to over-emphasise bits that i strongly agree with, i also thought it would be easier to quickly read long texts. I know when i see long texts, it helps me (probably only me, as i know now) to see the main gist of it quickly.

You see, Lilly understands me!!! cool smiley

P.s.- Thats a mistery about Edz. But, who knows when your time is up, God (Trent Reznor) can decide to take any of us, whenever he thus chooses.....

Regards NIN disciples.. smoking smiley
