I kind of wonder how much the band is costing per show. Lisa Fischer & co don't come cheap.

Here are some thoughts on touring: When we commit to a touring cycle, it usually is at least a year long, and can start to feel stale after X amount of time. What I'm doing this cycle is making each leg of the tour have its own identity. The festival run we did over the summer was very different from the Tension tour we just finished. We're currently rehearsing with a new incarnation of the band for what's ahead. This keeps things fresh from a musician's perspective, but also keeps things interesting for fans in an era where every show ends up on YouTube. The setlist and presentation moving forward will be very different from what we just did. That's part of the incentive behind releasing the Tension footage now. That was one very specific look at Nine Inch Nails in the Fall of 2013, that I wanted the whole world to be able to see (just like you can see the festival footage on YouTube, which was its own thing). Yes, we are planning to return to North America in 2014...

There's a huge difference between a 2500-3000 seat club show and a 250-300 seat one. I doubt NIN will ever play tiny clubs like that again. I'd drop $100 on it in a heartbeat if they did though.

The Bowery only holds about 500.

795, but I thought it was over 1000 person capacity.

Other venues from Wave Goodbye:

Echoplex: ~700
Webster Hall: 1500
Henry Fonda: 1200
Aragon: 4500
Terminal 5: 3000
Hollywood Paladium: 3,700

When was the last club tour before that, the first With Teeth tour?

That performance of Copy of A was still awesome. Add Linsey Buckingham to the tour!

FM-NIN-2014

That would unironically own, as opposed to NINJA which was a good excuse to go home early.

Death Grips are playing the TIME Fest at Fort York in Toronto on July 19th so they may not be playing the LV show.

Is the seat selection any better through their presale?

Yes all seating levels available, unfortunately the selection is very limited now depending on which show,

Thank the loving lord.

I like Oneohtrix Point Never more than DEP or Cold Cave so I'm happy. I won't be able to hear him anyhow because the acoustics at the amphitheatre are garbage for openers.

A few things from Toronto:
- huge thunderstorm all night and while it sucked having to stand in the pouring rain, the thunder/lightning made for some cool moments like the drum breakdown in Copy of A and the end of Hurt
- Soundgarden was louder than NIN. Robin/Allesandro's mics were especially quiet.
- the crowd thinned a lot after Soundgarden finished, which may also have been because of the rain
- The Molson Amphitheatre's $16 beers can suck my balls
- first NIN show where I didn't buy a single thing from the merch booth

Everything was probably obnoxiously expensive, huh?

Ehhhhh not amazing. $35 shirts, $50 hoody, $25 poster. I mean, I bought a shirt at every show until this one, and I have posters from shows years ago that are still sitting in tubes. Maybe the nin online store will have some deals after the tour.

Did anyone get one of these posters? I had no idea they even existed, and now they are all loving sold out!

Jane's Addiction headlining really put a damper on the whole thing. They were dogshit and I walked out.

I told my friend we could stay until Been Caught Stealin came on, because seriously gently caress that song.

We lasted half an hour before heading for the doors.

He's an adult that realized making connections and friendships with industry people is more sustainable long term than being an angsty pariah. What would be more contradictory and sad is if he kept up the same tired schtick from from 1996 all the way into his 50s - take a look at marilyn manson if you want an example of where that gets you.

Or Billy Corgan, who has gone full illuminati.

Funny enough MM and SP did a joint tour last year.
