    that's pretty much my feeling too. they didn't have to go crazy and do every song with kazoos or anything (though that could be interesting for a couple of songs).
    ...
    Remember when Ed was on the ukulele kick? Remember the fits that were thrown because of that? I bet if Mike and Stone switched sides... some people's worlds would be turned upside down.

    i bet the trent fans loved it.....

    yes. yes. and yes! Wasn't there but have seen the clips - I think Non-Entity may have been my favorite of what I got to hear. Or Something I can Never have, segued into by The Frail. There really isn't anyone else like him.

    lol re Mike and Stone changing sides. PJ sounded good too - loved Throw Your Hatred Down.

    Just waiting for all (I hope!) of this to come up as good quality on itunes.

    I personally fell in love with Trent Reznor over the weekend. Damn, that was something special and I know NOTHING about Nine Inch Nails. NOTHING.

    What a special weekend that was.
  • yeah I agree that PJ may have lost a few..Trent was amazing... I wonder what NIN fans would say about the show? that is not the Trent they know and love.....I am still in shock over how many people left after PJ on Sunday...


    That is the Trent we know and love. Trent is a multifaceted artist and has done this kind of thing before.

    I would strongly suggest that you buy the Still CD. It is truly one of the most heart wrenching albums I have ever heard and, I believe, many NIN fans would say it's some of Trent Reznor's best work. It is truly beautiful and different than what you might be used to.

    You can purchase it here:

    If you liked what he did at the Bridge School show you will love this. Unfortunately it's not available for purchase anywhere else. I personally defy anyone to not feel something when they hear this CD.
  • What is your take on Trent?
    My take on Trent is that he's a musical genius. He's elevated his art form to whole other level over the years.

    If the Bridge School event is the first some of you are hearing from trent Reznor, then you definitely need to check out his other work.

    Works he's done that are along the same vein are the "Still" CD and, to a lesser extent, "The Fragile" double CD. - Beautiful music. Still is mostly stripped down and piano-driven. The Fragile is more electronic, but still based on piano/synth and electronica.

    I only signed up to this message board to give a little NIN/Trent feedback. Some of your posts have been posted at The Spiral (NIN fan club site) and some of us wanted to give you feedback. Expect more NIN fans to join today :)

    BTW - I wore my copy of Ten down to a coaster when I was in grade 9 :o
  • Hey folks,

    So I am late to this thread, but I was at the second night of Bridge this year and have finally unearthed some good-quality audio from Trent's amaaaaazing set (to tide you over until Tuesday when we get to see what tracks are offered up on iTunes):
