That concert was insane! I didn't know what to expect from this new band, but Alesandro, Trent and Robin always kill it live. That was a 10/10 kind of concert. FTW...NIN IS BACK!

I'll post more tomorrow

had my mind blown on mutiple occasions tonight

hearing A Warm Place was worth the price of admission to me, never thought there was a chance he'd play that, it was an incredible moment, I soaked that one in

Only into The Hand That Feeds was incredible

ridiculous visuals all night

I really enjoyed the concert in Toronto, though there were a few moments where I wasn't as into the show. It's possibly of the fact that I got out of bed at 6:30 AM as I had a class starting at 8:00 AM on Friday. If my class started later like at noon, I would have been less tired than this.

Anyway, for the show, I got at the nin.com pre-sale line-up at around 4:00 PM after ordering a veggie sub at Mr. Sub and ate at the line-up. Unexpectedly, at 4:30 PM, the nin.com pre-sale representative were checking at the fans, asking for ID and they gave a numbered wristband, which the fans must follow the order. I got #34. At 5:30 PM, the ticket check-in started and we were already allowed in in front of the entrance of Section 121, where fans can get floor access. I also unintentionally sneaked my bottle of water in. Fans were actually allowed to buy drinks, food and merchandise in the venue. Just after 6:45 PM, we got on the floor, where I managed to be front row on the left side of the barricade. It was a great show and I was glad to do floor. It was the first time I did floor for NIN as I wanted to "spice up" the experience. At first, I didn't understand why on Ticketmaster, Section 118 & 109 were obstructed view seats because it seemed like there was nothing blocking them, but when NIN took the stage, I understood why.

Great production and visuals and the band was great. The female vocalists did add up to the show and I thought it was a nice change for NIN. It was surprisingly mellow where I was. In fact, it was only starting with Wish that I felt it was rougher and I barely caught a female crowd surfer's leg on the right side during the song. I helped her landed safely on the other side an held her leg until I knew she would land safely. Pretty good setlist, even though they played a lot from Hesitation Mark. I love the album, just felt there was one too many songs played. Again, it may be attributed to the fact that I was up all day and feeling more tired. Overall, I had a great time.

What has the start time been for this tour? Hitting the boston show Friday

The show in Toronto started at 8:00 PM, but opening act Explosions in the Sky took the stage 5 minutes late. Played a 45 minutes set, ended at 8:50 PM. Nine Inch Nails, originally scheduled to take the stage at 9:15 PM, took the stage at 9:20 PM. I don't blame them, the opening act was a bit late.

Montreal was AWESOME! http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/nine-inch-nails/2013/centre-bell-montreal-qc-canada-53c7dba9.html

Just read about it. Pretty lame that the fans do that. Although there is a bit of arrogance about it, I overall agree with what he says. This is what I wrote on his comment:

"I agree. I was at the Nine Inch Nails concert in Toronto last Friday and I felt hugely lucky to be in front on the left side of the barrier, right in front of you. Not a single time did I use my cell phone during the show because it distracts me and I wanted to enjoy the show but more importantly, I didn't want to lose my IPhone. I even turned it off so that I can focus SOLELY on Nine Inch Nails and my surroundings for crowd surfers and other fans. If I was a bit further, who knows, maybe I would have been blocked by these idiots recording the show."

Cant wait for the show this Friday in Boston!!! Some great reviews in here!

Do they have cool tour posters?

Here's one: http://i.imgur.com/U1pTNOM.jpg
P.S: The poster you see here is only available at a tour merchandise booth OUTSIDE the venue, weather permitting. There's a very limited amount of that. At the Air Canada Centre in Toronto, it was inside the Galleria which was good because it was raining outside. It did say it would open at 5:00 PM, but it was open sooner. I didn't buy one because I was worried that I would end up losing it during the show since I did GA Floor. I actually found out about this when I got the email for ticket pick up/check-in as I bought mine through the nin.com member pre-sale.

Here's the other, which you will find it both inside and outside the venue:
