So if you have any neat facts about NIN you don't think are common knowledge, interesting stories or personal accounts, I would be more than happy to hear about it. I'm looking forward to getting acquainted with many of you, and hearing your stories and opinions in the forums. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 09/05/2008 02:05PM by swindley.

Boy, did I get a whole lot of cricket chirps in the background after all was said and done. But WOW, my teacher was sure intrigued.

Well since there's talk about Pretty Hate Machine and Down In It you guys might find this interesting also. This has been around for a while and might be old news to a lot, but when taping for the Down In It video, they had these cameras that were lifted by balloons and such and allegedly one of the cameras got away and some people found the camera in some rural town and needless to say, they were pretty disturbed. Hard Copy (yeah remember that show)did an episode about it. Check it out. It's pretty funny. Enjoy [www.youtube.com]

Torean member Joined: 09/04/08 Location: Norm Town%2C OK Posts: 10	Just a weird personal story: I'd just woken up in the middle of the night from a dream where some kind of swordsman was wanting to teach me "self-discipline"... I got up and randomly felt like checking my myspace before going to bed... I find that about 15 minutes ago, Nine Inch Nails had uploaded the new single "Discipline" O_o After that, I was too excited to go back to sleep!

I suppose that counts as a random fact.. (I have no idea if it's little-known or not) And according to IMDB, his nickname is "Stimpy" Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 09/05/2008 10:46PM by kuroishi.

Yeah, if you looked at it closely, you'd have seen it was even made in Mercer, Pa. I used to work at a plant nursery, and we had one of the Reznor heaters hanging up in one of the corners. One day I decided to investigate further and saw the "Mercer Pennsylvania" tag just below it.

She basically made her assignment an excuse to play Opeth rather than using Opeth as a means of doing the assignment. Sigh. Somebody in the 1994 tour liked Frank Zappa, because some of Shiek Yerbouti is heard in Closer. According to Marilyn Manson, Trent and co. did so much cocaine that more than a month went by without any work being done on his (not trent's) album, but trent rarely participated fully in the crazy acts his band performed with groupies.

I've always wondered if they could sing expert on their own songs, because I have problems doing that with a lot of songs, Heroes by Bowie being one of them. Stupid pitch meter.
