Maybe this is wishful thinking, but if we post over 1000 replies, maybe Trent would invite the people who posted to an exclusive concert...

hahahahaha now that actually made me laugh out loud

hahahha that would be the greatest thing ever!!!

Don't you just hate bad timing/relying on others for answers?

I went to the Lexington, Kentucky and Columbus, Ohio shows. I loved both equally and was so amazed and in awe of the amount of preparation it must have taken to put together such a large scale show.

Now about this project that you had lined up with Cameron and Co: just let it slide off your back. You have had a very ambitious year and you've already kicked major ass. Unleashing what I would consider the greatest box set, (ghost uber super duper deluxe version), of music to come out in a very long time and a tour to match. There is nothing half-assed about you my friend. When you set your mind to something, you know what you want, and won't settle for less than the best.

I too would have loved to have seen a film from this tour. To date it has been my favorite NIN show. You have grown so much as a person. The older mature Trent Reznor that's got his shit together is very appealing. Don't give up. You have many other brilliant projects ahead of you and I'm sure they'll blow us away. Besides, the economy sucks now, and an expensive project like that after an expensive tour can't be good on the wallet. Save your funds, stay in touch with your fans, and get yourself ready for the next step, after a much needed rest

Nobody is expecting Trent Reznor to jump out of a giant lemon* or a disco ball* (*pop mart and madonna tour reference) Well, maybe a Jeff Koons egg, but not a lemon or a disco ball

Be true to yourself and everything else will come into place.

This really sucks. I've been going through chemotherapy for the last six months, so I couldn't be out out around crowds.

That sucks; sorry dude; hope you are recovering well.

Aside from the no DVD thing which sux. everyone is making too much of a deal. It just seems like TR wants a break or is going to do something completely different. Trent I don't think would be the type to not tell if he was planning on retiring .

I hear ya, Trent. I recently read a "Best Tours Of 2008" poll that included Carrie Underwood and Usher. Not a breath about Lights In The Sky...




...what do they know, anyways?!?

clearly the dumb asses were blinded by the ridiculous mainstream shit that gets put out year after year after year it all starts to sound the same. WAKE UP ASSHOLES AND TRY SEEING A REAL FUCKING ARTIST FOR ONCE!!!! FUCK

probably cause their shows sell out everywhere because that shit gets promoted to no end.its not even good music.what a fuckin waste of $$$$ airtime, promotion and press.

Hey, I just remembered. Celine Dion made the list as well.

Y'know, it's probably a good thing they didn't include you in there...

I have nothing when tour is over except the memories of the best times ever! fucking priceless ! Im lucky that im going to more shows thanks Trent for being you! c u soon

Ok Trent i have an idea about the DVD. Why don't you start a Chip-In account and we will all donate lots of money for the DVD to be made.
You know we would!
Hell more then half of us would show up and Film it for you!
Just say the word

hell yes

yes yes and yes

Um...you may want to re-read a post to make sure you're reading it correctly before responding. Not trying to be an asshole, just don't want my fellow nin.com peeps frantically freaking the fuck out for the wrong reasons.

We then achieved the impossible by finding alternate production / funding but the timetable is too rushed to get it filmed comfortably with the remaining time left on the tour.

The fact that there are over 500 replies to this in less than twelve hours proves the dedication of us nin fans. : )

ya know this was the best tour ever, and what a way to do it. You bleww the sox off of people that had never seen you perform and upgraded the performance for your die-hard fans. Trent your the best. We all live through our trials & tribulations as do U. I got to see this fantastic performance 5x and it left me wanting more each time. I hope there will be more NIN-the future but you have the right to pick & choose how much or how little ya want to do. By this age we think a little differently about doing things (the minds allways stronger than our bodies are willing) Not saying that U're old or anything but I'm your age & I've slowed just a bit. You've definately done things that others could only dream of and we've all been impressed by your showmanship and diversity. I'm so happy to be one of your NINpho's as many here are. We cheer & applaud your trek in this crazy life hoping that you will endeavor another feat. We all love you Trent. You have converted us into your cult. Thanks!!!!

All of the fan filming, even in its low or grainy quality. All of the fan pictures, all of the professional pictures. Its all here. The memories, they are here. I know we could never singly mirror back the magic we saw live, but as a whole, the spirit of this leg is there inside the pictures and video.

Good point. We've got evidence of the show's greatness. It's not Titanic, but it's real. Also, there are a couple of songs filmed by Rob--it's all here in bits and pieces. Besides, I don't think anyone who saw it is going to forget it for a long, long time. This leg lives, even if record companies are trying to strangle it.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. NGL, I'm a little disappointed that this won't be available on DVD. But that's not at all your fault Trent! I'm just grateful that I was able to go to one of the shows, as it was truly one of the best, if not the best live show I've been to. My only regret is that I only saw it once!

So thank you, thank you, thank you for continuing to produce such revolutionary, innovative music. you do so much for us fans already! your genuine concern and consideration of your fans is something unparalleled in today's music industry.

The shows we have announced in 2009 and any more that may be announced will be a completely different approach with some different personnel and will likely be the last for the foreseeable future.

That is unexpectedly unfair. You should’ve told us earlier. We deserved it. Now it’s too late. It wasn't fair not to say anything.

Maybe the deal just recently fell through. That's how record labels roll. A bunch of decrepit old white guys who string your ass along until you break.

But didn't Trent already know that? Why did he go messing around with a record label for the DVD when he knows very well that record labels can't be trusted? If he was able to find alternate funding, couldn't he do that before recurring to a record label?

Everything is far more complex then on the surface. Trent has being in the industry for 20+ years I think he has a better idea then you or I have.

I think he has certainly earned a long break from NIN, if no the tour. After giving us all of these concerts and blowing all of our minds, I know I'd need some time to settle down.

It's certainly not a post we need to lose our minds over...not that I'm saying anybody is. I don;t think he's trying convey some kind of hidden "touring is over" message. If something that big were happening, he'd straight up tell us.

I agree. Also: if we look at Trent and NiN's history then we see that there have been long breaks between albums etc. Since 2005 we've almost been spoiled with all the new nin stuff.

And I suppose that that is one of the reason people are reacting so strongly... If say trent had only released one album since Fragile and announced that he would take break, people wouldnt have reacted this way.
