NIN Saturday night

My buddy won a couple NIN tickets from a local radio station but he's going camping for the weekend. He gave them to me because he kicks ass and knows I've been trying to win them for the past month.
On top of that I won a chance today to go see Weezer in Tokyo. I hate Weezer, but if I win the grand prize I can just ask for $1000 instead of taking the trip.
Also won some tickets a month or two ago to see Switchfoot/Third Day/Robert Randolph and the Family Band. The only reason I'd go is to see Robert Randolph. There is some other Christian rock band playing since it's a benefit concert for Habitat for Humanity. I'm giving them to my little brother.
A couple of the guys I work with and I just call every damn day for this radio station. We've had some awesome streaks, with some of us winning twice in one week. We had a dead spot but now the streak is back and we'll continue to dominate the airwaves and the prizes.

Good score. I wanted to go to his concert in ATL last week, but nobody I know wanted to go. Fucking faggots. Yeah and tell us how it goes. This is the slip tour, no? Not my favorite album, but it's pretty fucking good.

I fuckin' hate you. NIN was going to come to my state a while back, but then their drummer had a heart attack. Now they appear to be passing up my state completely on this tour.

I'm surprised that the seats aren't shitty. They aren't great, but not bad. They're not on the floor. We'll be sitting on the first tier only 4 seats back with a direct view of the stage, almost dead-center.
My friend I'm taking that saw them at Lolla said their stage setup was incredible and they put on one of the greatest shows he's ever seen. I'll let you all know how it goes.

I just saw them at the Virgin Mobile Festival last weekend. They fucking ROCKED! I wish I knew more of their songs; I'd have appreciated it more. They had a really sick light/screen setup on stage. He would walk behind them and they'd change colors and shit wherever he moved. It was kind of like MS Paint with some crazy psychadelic filter on the brush, and he just painted this canvas as he rocked out. Have fun dude!
PS- Reznor's got really short hair now.

I flew to Sydney from Hobart in February to see NIN and Trent had a cry about something and didn't play.

I also can vouch for the awesome stage setup when I saw them at Virgin Fest. I'd have to say without the stage setup the show would be good, but with that huge screen and everything it just entrances you.

So good to see you, I've missed you so much.

Holy fuck! That was one of the greatest visual setups I have ever seen in my life. The free seats were awesome and the show was effing incredible.
