I'm going tomorrow as well. The setlists have been very heavy on stuff from The Slip and Year Zero. He plays 3 in a row from Ghosts in the middle of the show as well.
I won't spoil it any further, but you can read the setlists at a forum called Echoing The Sound.
The light show is supposedly epic on this tour.
It is time to admit that we used to rock like hurricanes. It is time to run for the hills and go round and round. It is time for us to shout at the devil. We've got the right to choose it, there ain't no way we'll lose it, and we're not gonna take it anymore.

I got a bootleg from the first night of the Lights In the Sky tour at Key Arena in Seattle and its amazing. I cant wait for Worcester tomorrow night!!!
i saw em at lolla too! great taste of what a full length, solo show of theirs would be like! i was blown away! trent even said he was sick but i couldnt tell AT ALL! i dont think anything could top the atmosphere and energy of a festival though... you dont get that kindof violence, and i certainly wouldnt get that great of a spot (dead center, 20 yards away) at a regular NIN show... so i probably wont see them again on this tour... though im tempted to make the trip to detroit... i was blown away by does it offend you, yeah? at lolla too and i believe they are opening for NIN at a few of the shows on this tour... thatd be a great tag team duo
I went to the Toronto show on tuesday, absolutely blown away. Without a doubt the greatest lighting/use of video screens I've ever seen. If you saw them on the With Teeth tour this blows that away by a mile. Including instrumental songs there were 31 songs played on tuesday night.
I have the worst/best luck with NIN, only other time i saw them was Amherst MA on the With Teeth tour and that show was postponed a week due to illness. I make trent sick! lol but in the long run it will probably be better cause I know he was pissed having to reschedule the Amherst show and played on of the best concerts I've ever seen that night with a lot of rare or cooler stuff. Plus I have bronchitis right now so this will give me time to recover too and not have to go to the show feeling miserable haha

Exactly what I'm thinkin'....should be a KILLER show.
Hey everyone -
Just want to personally say how sorry I am to have to do this. I never take postponing a show lightly and if there were any possible way I could pull this off I would. This is a very frustrating and maddening situation for me and I appreciate your understanding. I'll make it up to you.
Thanks

The show has been rescheduled for Nov 9 which is a Sunday. I'm thinkin' we'll all have an easy drive in, and get a phenomenal show

i heard he took the night off to do a private corporate jeans party
He was hoarse when he was speaking at Lolla - you couldn't tell during the songs, but when he talked to us you could tell, and at Toronto toward the end of the show his voice sounded more hoarse. I wonder if just a day or two off here and there is enough. If and when you get to see NIN on the Lights over North America tour you will be amazed, I guarantee that. Thankfully I still have Philly ahead.

I know how bad I feel when I get throat infections, even getting out of bed hurts, I can't imagine trying to perform a show as intense as NIN's live show is when feeling like that.
Went to the makeup Worcester show last night. WOW what a show. They were awesome. Between the setlist and light show, plus he had really good energy, it was almost flawless. Only song I would have liked to have heard was Happiness in Slavery.
Come back here tomorrow and tell us how amazed you were!
Wow, what a great show! To be honest I haven't ben a huge fan over the years - nothing against the music - but just one of those things where you don't get into a band. That said it was an awesome show. I love how different each song looked on stage. They'd go from a huge black empty stage and just rock out, to very cool visuals/lights. They had some really cool things going on I can't describe, but I'm just sitting there thinking "wow". Every beat, note, seemed to be times perfectly. Josh was great! The show for the most part was very heavy, which I didn't mind at all. The heavy guitars sounded amazing. One of the best sounding concerts no doubt.
Trent thanked the fans and mentioned how happy he was not to be a part of a label and all the bullshit.
Gotta run, but yea a great show! Even if you're not a huge NIN fan you can't go wrong with paying $60 to them them live..
Hey Canucklehead, I was at the NIN show too and I was in section 121. I too was very impressed. Like RedLukin, it was the first time I had seen NIN in 14 years. I wonder if RedLukin was at the 1994 Barrie show too. The band is flawless on stage, every sound on the album comes through and every beat is amazing. I know the first song they played had the same drum beat as Last Exit and I thought of the thread that appeared on here about that.
Did anyone else notice the light technician rocking out to every song they played as he did his thing. That was cool. Their light show is hard to top. I liked the Ghosts break-down as well. Hurt was pretty cool to hear, I thought perhaps they stopped playing that song live. I would have liked to hear Sin though.
Definitly glad I picked up a ticket for that show and will see them again if they come around again

123, row 13...great seats. In some ways I wish I was farther back and more centre, as some of the effects probably looked better from back there. I can't complain though - it was fun seeing Josh's drumming and seeing Trent and the others smash their equipment repeatedly!
Also the mosh pit view from where I was was insane - during the first song I swear the front rail was gonna break..
Edit: yea Molson Park with Soundgarden around 94' - NIN killed that show too! Soundgarden, well were okay I guess~~
I had a perfect view of the screens and all the effects being back where I was. Kinda behind the soundboard and to the right 4 rows off the floor. The tech that was rocking out was great lol. I definitely will go see NIN again, I dont think anything will top it.

(I did go to Manchester, Ottawa and Montreal in the last week so I shouldn't complain).
Fan Club tickets for NIN are very cool - your name is printed on them, and you pick them up similarly to 10 Club.

Ol' Rez is not QUITE the performer he once was, but he still puts everything he has into the show...and he still hammers ya with an honest word.
Good stuff
Come back here tomorrow and tell us how amazed you were!
