Dearest Trent and Co.,

Without getting too emotional, I would like to make my perspective as an enthusiastic fan and Nine Inch Nails disciple known to you and your panel of experts.

If the footage from your tour advertisement is any indication of what can be done or has already been done without 3d, please keep filming and consider one copy sold. I don't need a theatrical release and I don't need 3D. The footage looks compelling enough and a document of this tour is in great demand by your fans.

I will gladly pay the same ticket price for smaller shows. I will even pay double for smaller shows with a comparable level of presentation and craftsmanship as your LITS tour.

You may not have big label backing, but I am confident that if you call, you have me and thousands of fans just like me in numerous fields of art, music, technology, ect. that will do more than just support your work through the purchase of CDs, merchandise, and tickets. You have a constituency that will do whatever we can to help you in good faith that we can be of service to you.

You have made an unforgettable mark that I will continue to strive for as a musician who takes the stage in order to present my craft to people willing to watch and listen.

I cannot speak for anyone else but I doubt that I am alone in expressing my everlasting gratitude for the body of work you have laid before us.

Thank you.

Sincerely,
-Adam Marcus Batley a.k.a. The Viirus

Is everyone that sad? =X I don't think that the shows will end, I honestly just think he'll take a break, which I think he deserves since he hasn't stopped much for a while! Camon guys, TR wouldn't leave us hagging like that...!

And ok, I hope this is not a translation problem, but "forseable future" isn't something like "near future"? honestly, help me out here, becaused if I should be freaking out, someone please just tell me so and I will O_O

You can freak out. It's kind of amusing.

well like I said in chat, this was kind of inevitable since he's been touring non stop since With Teeth, I hope he gets the rest he deserves.

Other than that... I'm an asshole and this is why:

Thank you and feel very privilaged to see the tour again. Please make no decisions comming off a tour about touring. Take some time off and then rejouvonate yorself and you might feel differently about any other tours.

THANK YOU SO MUCH TRENT AND EVERYBODY WHO STUCK THROUGH TO PUT ON THE BEST SHOW IN THE WORLD FOR YOUR FANS WHO WILL ALWAYS BE BEHIND YOU!

The best concert that I've ever been to, and I've had the pleasure of going 3 times and will never forget them. On another note I feel fairly confident in saying that Trent's had this planned from the beginning. With Ghosts so closely followed by the release of the slip, and the fact that the Slip was FREE, " this ones on me" thats what he said. It wouldn't surprise at all if he's had this in the works for awhile. Nevertheless I will cry the day NIN is officially done. But does that mean the end for Trent's music? I think not. Its too much a part of him for him to drop it completely.

Yes. Deep breath.

(Okay, No more fighting my self about this. I'm posting.)

The Light In The Sky is/was Amazing and Original. I'm very glad i was able to witness it, and I'm sure all others who did know how ...(lack of better words) Fucking godly it was.
Fuck Anyone who DARES to to argue that.
Having Caught it on a recording would have been awesome and Immortalized It.
But you know what?, We dont need it. Maybe its even more precious now, We just cant forget.
"Yeah, You know that fucking NIN Tour, when they had all that awesome equipment and the visual effects?,Dude."
"Yeah, i was THERE."

If anything, Its something that Can Be Marked In Trent's and the NIN teams Personal accomplishments checklists.

And, Not To sound insulting. But I really Hope No one gets Concerned over Not having any other show Now rank up to the others.(Performers AND Fans)
Trent, All other shows can and will be just as Spinetinglingly awesome, All the energy...it flows right through.
You could have a Performance in a pitch black room; and they would still be rocking their asses off, I would still cry.
You can just feel the...something. The seriousness of it all. & The Hidden connection of all the people. 'Long as there are lyrics, as long as there is bass, and creative genius, and the will. No Fucking Show will be less worth it.

I Feel extremely Lucky and grateful for have had the chance to See Nails During Lights In The Sky.

Just, let me See you guys one more time, Okay?

Thanks To all the People who Contributed the the wicked tour.
And The Finger to all who jacked it up.

Thank you Reznor, For trying, for Not stopping, and For the music that has Penetrated me into eternity.
I, Like everyone else. Cant wait to see what will come next, And will Hold all memorys indiscriminately.

<3 Everyone,
~LFY

"the shows we have announced in 2009 and any more that may be announced will be a completely different approach"

There we go, that's the usual... Big shows in Canada and the US, then they return to the "old world" with a stripped-down set. Guess current shows' awesome production doesn't fit into a plane (ship???) to Europe?

But well, we are used to suffering when it comes to NIN shows. And it doesn't matter, just drop by, with any production... we will love it anyways ;-)

I am almost positive that after Trent posted this, the suicide rate went up 17.2%.

That'd make my job a lot easier.

Thanks for that one!
You managed to make me laugh in such a sad context.

Okay. Let`s be honest. If Trent calls it quits, as i understood, i mean touring, this could turn out to be one of the worst months of my teenage life, so i hope he`s just pissed as usual and so on, but i hope he changes his mind. Unless he`s thinking of starting a family and, well, you know, the whole nine yards.

Trent Reznor, you're my absolute musical hero, I'm relatively devastated you won't be having another tour of the same scale as LITS. I really hope you're going to tour again, if you stop the touring or recording, the world of popular music will become the dullest thing in existence. Just a few more years of NIN, that's all I ask!!
