God I'm a bitch

Well said...I mean your rant...I just didn't want to quote all that.

I'd be unbelievably pissed off too, but couldn't hold it against the man. Even if he didn't want to bend over backwards for all the possible shit to go through for those shows, I would understand. But hey, I'm in California, already seen one show and ready to see a second in a few months...that said, I'm sure he'll keep y'all in S.A. in mind for the next tour, which should be even more amazing and mind blowing than this one.

And to aad to the grapevine [more like a whinevine]: I heard the US embassy got kicked out of one of those countries...

This thread should be locked until further news is released. At the moment it's just the same thing being posted over and over again it's completely irrelevant.

80% of the stuff that is written in this whole forum is irrelevant. But it's not about being relevant or irrelevant. It's about NIN and the feelings of their fans. So if people are pissed off or disappointed or whatever, it's their right to write it, even if the same thing is being posted over and over again. If they lock this thread, they would just show that they don't give a fuck about the NIN fans, especially the ones who wanted to go to the cancelled shows and the ones who posted something in this thread.

I feel very sorry for all!, and I know you already expend a lot of money, but there are still possibilities in Chile and Argentina...

Just for posterity, a friendly reminder:

I just deleted some name-calling posts (and instances where they were quoted) from this thread. The only place for that is the shitlist. Let's stay on topic please.

Thanks.

ALRIGHT PEOPLE, I know we as Brazilian and Colombian citizens have the right to bitch. But we all saw what really happened, what was the true reason for the cancellations, and you still wanna speculate about it. So do it! Still not sure why the Colombia gig got cancelled (low ticket sales, for what I heard!), but the Brazil ones have an explanation, even though it's a lame ass one!

I still don't wanna believe I'll not be seeing NIN here in my country next month. I'd love to go to Chile, but it's very expensive and I only took one day off work for the concert. It's not that easy. And yes, I'm still waiting on a word from TR about this, at least to know that he is also angry about it and will make up to us in a near future (a very near future, hopefully). That's the least we deserve.

(Just got my money back today... )

Yeap...., from VENEZUELA!!!! Where they ARE going to perform...

But anyway...said it before and I say it again,though it's truly a bummer having bought my ticket for the show in Bogota, ColOmbia in late July and having the show cancelled a few weeks before, I understand there's a lot of possible explanations.

For now, I hope things work out and I get to check out the show NIN puts on. From pictures it seems this tour is mindblowing, but if there's something I've been taught by NIN is that it can always get better.

Sorry for all those who had plane tickets, hotels,etc.

Cheers to the rest and I hope that if you have a chance, enjoy the show for all of us who won't be able to do so!

You have a point about the way we SA shouldnt pick it on TR. But, i think that is clear from past week and all posts in the general tour discussion. So, i dont see a point about people coming in here to defend Trent, as if 1) he needs help, and 2) most of us were blaming him.

And please PEOPLE, stop bringing the stupid issue about the VISA. Any american can get here, anytime!! this is a whore country where anybody can get... it is not like were in a small town where businesses are made differently. All major banks that rule the u.s. are also in here, and there is an obedient class working and making the same mba´s americans do. There are 8 million people in this city! Unfortunately, not enough to buy a ticket for this wonderful show.

We already know it was because of low tickets sales! so, stop making new theories or giving us new hope for now. We realize the facts and WE are not blaming TR or his crew.

Ps. pickleblossom, get some real lessons! you´re story seems taken from a tom clancy book.

This is not fair!!!

Por que si van a ir a Caracas y adelatan la fecha y cancelan el concierto de Bogota, segun la gira Colombia estaba primero. No es justo con los fans que desde hace mucho tiempo estamos esperando este concierto.

Pickleblossom FTW.

And for those who say we are "blaming" TR...
We're not. We know they didn't cancel the shows from out of the blue just to screw with us... We just want to know what happened.

Due to unforeseen technical issues, Nine Inch Nails' October 15 show at the Poliedro de Caracas in Caracas, Venezuela has been moved up a week to October 8. Tickets for the October 15 show will of course be honored at the new date. The same issues have unfortunately forced the cancellation of the following shows:Tue-Oct-07 Sao Paulo BR Via Funchal Thu-Oct-09 Porto Alegre BR Pepsi on Stage Sun-Oct-12 Bogota COL BIMA MallTicketholders seeking refunds should contact the Via Funchal and Pepsi on Stage box offices for Sao Paolo and Porto Alegre respectively, while those seeking refunds on Bogota tickets should contact Tu Boleta.Fans who purchased nin.com pre-sale tickets will receive a refund.

to me, seeing nine inch nails live is one of the events that make life worth living. The first experience I had was simply amazing. I never felt so fulfilled before. Now I can't find the words to express the impact this cancellation had on me... I had my ticket for almost three months, and having to return it was worse than the worst of all break ups. I am sorry for people who share these feelings...I just hope it goes away eventually... I still can't believe this is happening...
