just slowly fade away

A handful of us headed up to Columbus a couple weeks ago to see Nine Inch Nails play at the Schottenstein center. Unfortunately on the way we hit a snow storm which slowed us down and caused us to miss Boris, the opening band, which was disappointing. But NIN played another fantastic show. We were a lot further back on the floor for a change which allowed us to take in a lot more of the visuals without everyone bumping into us. The new visuals for Closer and Ghosts 31 were highlights, as was Trent chucking a microphone stand through the screen during Echoplex. My only gripe was the lack of variation in the set list from the Cleveland and Lexington shows, although we did get a great version of The Good Soldier. All in all it was another awesome concert. Thanks to Jake for editing the pictures for me.

maybe you're not getting much of a variation because you've been to a concert on that tour FOR THE THIRD TIME!?!?

i agree, but i think they should consider that when they're in the same geograhical area, there might be repeat attendees. that would be nice.

Jess is right. See Rob, I know what other songs they've been playing this tour. It's not that they simply are just playing the same songs over and over; they've played a handful of songs this tour that did not get played at any of the three shows around here.
