Just to make you guys aware.....

On Jane's Addiction's website it clearly states that this tour is a CO-HEADLINING tour with NIN and JA. It also CLEARLY states that in the NIN/JA tour acronym.

Stop bitching. Both bands are amazing. NIN is playing an hour and a half and YOU KNOW that JA and NIN are going to play together at the end of the concert. This tour has Tom Morello, Boots Riley, Trent Reznor, and all of the cast and crew of both bands, and you are all complaining about order!

Wake up, and realize how special this is.

Thanks Trent for the great camera policy and the opportunity to attend such an amazing show!

First off, apparently you have gotten your information of the swine flu from fox news because swine flu does not equal death. Secondly, after reading pages upon pages of bitching and complaining about something so stupid and selfish (set times) that it baffles me people can be so RUDE. "well reasoned, reasons to be annoyed" WTF...how is there such thing? The fact that most people on this forum like to complain that's what. So please don't say I wish death upon people when that isn't the fact. Maybe get your medical news somewhere other than CNN or Fox. I highly reccomend that. And don't call me a psychotic fuck, you ignorant prick. Oh and if you didn't notice..people around here don't pay attention or get pissed off if you try and talk "above" their level..so swearing usually works. This is a NIN forum for fuck sakes. I work with psychotic people and trust me man, you have to get down to their level to get anything accross. People here understand fuck fuck shit fuck this that not " I understand your all angry and I see this is upsetting you but lets look at the situation" if you talk like that you'll get punched. So go back to your theater group

I'm Canadian, so I don't get my news from any of your pathetic 'American' news stations, and believe me; the way it was framed, it appeared that you were, at the very least, wishing harm on people.

Justifying acting like an asshole with "this is a nin forum!" is just that; justification. You don't need to attack people when you post, you know... you can just talk. I'm not trying to talk "above" your level; the swearing wasn't the main problem. The problem with your post was it was just an attack with no reasoning to it; if a post is just an emotional outburst, it adds nothing to a conversation.

I agree, there's lots of whining going on in here, but swearing at them isn't going to make them stop whining. I haven't been whining, though I personally don't like Jane's Addiction, but at the very least this can be a window for me to leave early if their live show impresses me as little as their studio music.

Ultimately, Trent does what he wants and I'm cool with that. A lot of people are going to be happy that Jane's is closing, and that's cool. Those who aren't happy about it are equally entitled to their opinion, and don't deserve to be assaulted as they so frequently are on this thread.

Didn't mean to offend you or attack you, I was mostly in a bad mood and it really annoys me to see aimlessly incidenary posts.

Hope you're having a good day!

EDIT:: I re-read a lot of this thread, and I sympathize with you much more strongly. This forum is filled with a lot of... pathetic people.

SECOND EDIT:: When I say 'pathetic' American news, I mean your news services are pathetic... not Americans themselves.

I did not pay 105 dollars to see Janes Addiction close.

Since Mayhem fest keeps being brought up I looked into it, and god why oh why are pit tickets to see slayer and manson only 60 dollars??? But enter janes addiction into the equation, at the exact same venue, and tickets are 110-150 dollars a piece? why?

Maybe, and im going out on a limb here, and correct me if Im wrong TR... but he has said, this whole tour is about him and his band, going out, and having FUN,

now I dont know about you, but if I was going out on the road, for what could be the last time for a long time, I would *love* to be able to tour with one of my most favorite and respected bands, and have the ability to watch them perform every nite!

its a lot easier to be able to watch the action after a gig than before. maybe he just wants to play in the sun, chill out, and watch one of his favorites! its not so hard to imagine.

everyone here seems so entitled, and are only thinking about themselves in this matter.. but fuck that. the man has done a LOT for us. maybe we should just let him enjoy this one.

Although I think things have calmed down here somewhat for the first day I have considered suggesting that some seperate threads be made in regards to this announcement:

-A complain about Jane's Addiction playing after NIN thread.
-A complain about the "whinny bitches" complaining about it thread.
-An intellectual discussion about the announcement thread, where everyone gets to calmly discuss the pros and cons and their other personal thoughts about what the announcement means to them.

I also have thought about the following:

-Someone needs to make a new Hitler subtitle video about this (I know someone already did it for the announcement that NIN would stop touring-but hey!).
-In response to the guy who said that he'd close for the concert-that's funny but it'd be even funnier if I said I'D close for them! Seriously, it'd put sticking around to see Jane's Addiction totally in perspective! And you'd still have a reason to leave before the entire concert is over! Also, technically the show would end with NIN songs being played.
