I graduate from college August 31st, and my family will be visiting me. Hopefully they'll stay long enough so I can take my little brother (15) to his first concert at the Inglewood show. I figure if he's gonna go, might as well go to the best first. Because every time I've seen them they've only gotten better. The tickets for the Inglewood show go on sale this week and I got my fingers crossed for some general admission floor tickets.

What song do you guys want them to play the most?
I'm hoping to hear The Great Destroyer. I can only imagine it would sound amazing live with their sound system.

that would be great. it seems that trent is being very progressive when it comes to the downloads and presenting his work and multiple formats so that his fans can experience or manipulate the music in the best way possible.

Just scored two more tickets to a private invite-only Los Angeles show. My friend found the tickets under a rock.
Read about it here:
http://www.echoingthesound.org/phpbb...ic.php?t=37735
The official site has a file you can load in Google Earth that show all their tour locations. One marker had a question mark and a note that said "Under the rock"
Since I'm in NY visiting my family I couldn't make it there so I called my friend and sent him to find out what it was. And he found an invite for him and a guest! =-D

I like how Reznor continues to make things fun and interesting for his fans. It's also good to see him enjoying himself, at least as much as his stigma allows him to.
Cool find!

400GB of HD Live NIN Footage... FREE!

Security must have been lacking at these shows because the quality of the footage is excellent.
If any of you could find a LINK to that footage I'll bet some enterprising fans could assemble something pretty cool.
Oh yeah, you didn't hear this from me.
