I didn't know the band used Moment Factory, who have worked with Cirque du Soleil.... I've seen a few Cirque shows in my life, and have always admired the beautiful visuals and backgrounds in their shows. Very interesting.

My dogs will keep you warm. So no secret text at Red Rocks, just a "stupid fucking Hippotizer", being that it's NIN we wouldn't expect something such as a simple miscue. There just has to be a hidden message behind it all. It's really fascinating to read what really goes on behind the scenes. I can't believe that some people think it all staged. Where have they been, Locked away in some basement? You guys have been talking about this for months! Thanks for sharing your secrets and going through what you do to put this on!

jennweiss member Joined: 09/07/08 Posts: 6	This show sounds amazing! I am wondering if this show might be better seen from a distance so the eyes can take it all in? I was planning on buying pre-sale tickets to get as close to the stage as possible, but now I'm wondering if I might miss something if I'm too close? I'd love some feedback from anyone who has seen this show already.

angelic_scars member Joined: 09/03/08 Location: Belleville Illinois USA Posts: 32	I loved the article, it's kinda funny to think that all those cool effects are ultimately just laser pointers and LED lights....you don't think about that when you're watching Trent lean in and out and the thing react to him like that. It's really wild. Funny thing is though, if Trent is just onstage with white lights and small clubs, I'll still go...they started out with very little, back to basics isn't always a bad thing

Diezel member Joined: 04/06/08 Location: Santa Monica Posts: 18	Ok. Everyone is bashing me for not having my own opinion, but I am 15. I have an opinion, Obama, I pay active attention and read all the magazines newspapers from other countries to get different opinions. My only thing was i just wanted to see what other people think. As a tried and true supporter of Trent, I am just curious as o what his position is and those of the rest of the band. I mean, i love these musicians, but it is one thing to know their music and another to know their political opinions. It seems if i knew there political opinions and other, but not all, parts of their life, you feel more connected to them and it seems like a more mutual and personal relationship and not just musical. Thats all.

Second, only history will tell if we are doing things for better or worse. Abraham Lincoln, in his time was viewed and bashed far worse then GW Bush. What they both had in common was a stubborn sense to see things through to the end. And in the end, that's what mattered most. I'm curious what exactly are you upset about? Especially in regard to "the direction of the country"? Are you an anarchist, socialist. Just trying to understand.

upthespiral member Joined: 04/28/08 Location: Colorado Posts: 317	I always knew when I started listening to Nails from the beginning I found genius. Trent is Way ahead of time. The music itself has always been revolutionary. Like said before even a minimal show with nothing but white lights would still amaze. The fact that Reznor puts all of this time and effort to make music not only a pleasure to jam to but also a visual expierence once again shows a true artist's passion. All of these reasons combined is why NIN has tested all time and will live on for many generations to come. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 09/14/2008 07:24PM by upthespiral.

Wouldn’t it be great to feel proud of this country for a change? Seems like it’s within reach. Well, I try to keep up on the political news, but it doesn't seem to change my mind much. I keep voting but I seem to be in the minority. Discouraging.
