Nine Inch Nails Toronto Concert

[Annessa]

Hi all,




Is anyone going to the NIN concert at the Kool Haus either tonight (May 9) or tomorrow night? (May 10)

They are my favorite band since 1994 and I haven't seen them in concert yet and I'M FREAKING OUT!!!!!!


What do you guys/gals think of the new CD 'With Teeth'? I don't think I have to tell you whether I love it or not. *lol*

i heard the same thing on the edge. show tonight.

No i have not heard the new stuff from NIN except the one song played on the edge. The hand that feeds. NIN is different.

 

[Photoguy]

I was online at 5 minutes before 5pm and up to a half hour after trying to buy tickets online and i ended up calling TicketMaster and they said it sold out in 5 minutes.... i'm crying with my With teeth album too.

NIN's new song is wicked.. listen to the actual CD and play it loud not just on your radio... it's better than u think. as for the whole cd... All i can say is, Thank God Trent is back!!!!

btw, if anyone is selling tickets, let me know too!!!!

I went to the Kool Haus today around 5:00PM and bought my ticket from a scalper because they actually sold out in 3 minutes. (grumbles..... F*cking scalpers) and they are not going cheap because it's an intimite venue that only holds 2200 people, there were no scalpers that were selling any tickets for less then $300.00 smack-a-roos. So, I bought 1 ticket for tomorrow nights show (May 10) and now I'M REALLY FREAKING OUT!!!!!!

If you really want to go to the show the scalpers will be there tomorrow selling tickets for that nights show about noon. So don't show up with less then $400.00 bucks. I hope you are able to go to the show and if not I'll let you know what they played, etc.

I take it that this mean that you are not taking me. Damn

Damn sweetie, If they were cheaper then $300.00 bucks I would.
I wanted to take my best friend Tiffany to the show so bad because their opening act is one of her favorite local Toronto bands, but I can't take her because I couldn't afford 2 tickets.

They'll be coming back to Toronto in the summer with a bigger venue which means alot more tickets and the tickets won't be as expensive.

Trent is one of the most influential and underrated musicians of our era.

Trent is one of the most influential and underrated musicians of our era.

SO VERY FREAKIN' TRUE!!!

He's on the cover of SPIN magazine. The first interview he has done in 4+ years and if you are a NIN fan the magazine is worth picking up because the article is beyond words with what he has gone through these last few years that I was totally shocked and a few tear drops fell from my eyes.
Trent is back and better then ever. I would type the article out but it's about 6 pages long, with awesome never before seen pictures.

The video for 'The Hand That Feeds' (which is farking awesome can be found here and click on the second (middle) link;
http://www.nin.com




THE HAND THAT FEEDS


You’re keeping in step,
In the line,
Got your chin held high and you feel just fine,
Because you do,
What you're told,
But inside your heart it is black and it's hollow and it's cold.

Just how deep do you believe?
Will you bite the hand that feeds?
Will you chew until it bleeds?
Can you get up off your knees?
Are you brave enough to see?
Do you want to change it?

What if this whole crusade's,
A charade,
And behind it all there's a price to be paid,
For the blood,
On which we dine,
Justified in the name of the holy and the divine,

Just how deep do you believe?
Will you bite the hand that feeds?
Will you chew until it bleeds?
Can you get up off your knees?
Are you brave enough to see?
Do you want to change it?

So naïve,
To keep holding on to what I want to believe,
I can see,
But I keep holding on and on and on and on,

Will you bite the hand that feeds you?
Will you stay down on your knees?
Will you bite the hand that feeds you?
Will you stay down on your knees?

ALL THE LOVE IN THE WORLD



Watching all the insects march along,
Seem to know just right where they belong,
Smears a face reflecting in the chrome,
Hiding in the crowd, I'm all alone,
No one's heard a single word I've said,
They don't sound as good outside my head,
It looks as though the past is here to stay,
I've become a million miles away,
Why do you get all the love in the world?
Why do you get all the love in the world?

All the jagged edges disappear,
Colors all are brighter when you're near,
The stars are all afire in the sky,
Sometimes I get so lonely, I could,
Why do you get all the love in the world?
Why do you get all the love in the world?
Why do you get all the love in the world?
Why do you get all the love in the world?

ONLY




I'm becoming less defined, as days go by,
Fading away, well you might say I'm losing focus,
Kinda drifting into the abstract in terms of how I see myself.

Sometimes, I think I can see right through myself,
Sometimes, I think I can see right through myself,
Sometimes, I can see right through myself.

Less concerned, about fitting into the world,
Your world that is!
Cause it doesn't really matter anymore,
(no, it doesn't really matter anymore)
No, it doesn't really matter anymore,
None of this shit really matters anymore.

Yes, I am alone but then again I always was,
As far back as I can tell, I think maybe it's because,
Because you were never really real to begin with.

I just made you up, to hurt myself,
I just made you up, to hurt myself, yeah,
And I just made you up to hurt myself,
I just made you up to hurt myself, yeah,
And I just made you up to hurt myself ,

And it worked,
Yes, it did.

There is no you, there is only me,
There is no you, there is only me,
There is no fucking you, there is only me,
There is no fucking you, there is only me.

Only...
Only...
Only...
Only...

Well, the tiniest little dot caught my eye,
And it turned out to be a scab,
And I had this funny feeling,
Like I just knew it's something bad.

I just couldn't leave it alone,
I cut off that scab,
It was a doorway trying to seal itself shut,
But I climbed through.

Now I'm somewhere I am not supposed to be,
And I can see things I know I really shouldn't see,
And now I know why now, and now I know why,
Things aren't as pretty, on the inside.

There is no you, there is only me,
There is no you, there is only me,
There is no fucking you, there is only me,
There is no fucking you, there is only me.

Only...
Only...
Only...
Only...

RIGHT WHERE IT BELONGS




See the animal in his cage that you built,
Are you sure what side you're on?
Better not look him too closely in the eye,
Are you sure what side of the glass you are on?
See the safety of the life you have built,
Everything where it belongs,
Feel the hollowness inside of your heart,
And it's alright where it belongs.

What if everything around you,
Isn't quite as it seems?
What if all the world you think you know,
Is an elaborate dream?
And if you look at your reflection,
Is it all you want it to be?
What if you could look right through the cracks,
Would you find yourself, find yourself afraid to see?

What if all the world's inside of your head?
Just creations of your own,
Your devils and your gods all the living and the dead,
And you're really all alone,
You can live in this illusion,
You can choose to believe,
You keep looking but you can't find the words,
Are you hiding in the trees?

What if everything around you,
Isn't quite as it seems?
What if all the world you used to know,
Is an elaborate dream?
And if you look at your reflection,
Is it all you want it to be?
What if you could look right through the cracks,
Would you find yourself, find yourself afraid to see?



=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=



YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE




I tried to sing myself through, tried to get to the other side,
I got to patch up the cracks in the holes that I have to hide,
For a little bit of time we've been making it work okay,
Just long enough to really make it hurt,
When they figured me out and it all just rotted away.

Don't you fucking know what you are?
Don't you fucking know what you are?
Don't you fucking know what you are? (c'mon get back to where you been to)

You better take a good look 'cause you're full of shit,
When they reveiled my heart I tried to believe in it,
You can push it all out, you can try to pretend,
But you cant change anything, you cant change anything, in the end.

Don't you fucking know what you are?
Don't you fucking know what you are?
Don't you fucking know what you are? (c'mon get back to where been down)
Don't you fucking know what you are?

remember where you've came from,
remember what you are.
remember where you've came from,
remember what you are.
remember where you've came from,
remember what you are.
remember where you've came from,
remember what you are.

Don't you fucking know what you are? (c'mon get back to where you been to)
Don't you fucking know what you are? (c'mon get back to where you been down)
Don't you fucking know what you are? (c'mon get back to where you been to)
Don't you fucking know what you are? (c'mon get back to where you been down)

WITH TEETH





She comes along,
She gets inside,
She makes you better than,
Anything you've tried.

It's in her kiss,
Black as sea,
And it runs deeper than you,
Dared to dream it could be.

With teeth...
With teeth...
With teeth...
With teeth...

Wave good-bye,
To what you were,
The rules have changed,
The lines begin to blur.

She makes you hard,
It comes on strong,
You finally found,
The place where you belong.

With teeth...
With teeth...
With teeth...
With teeth...

I cannot go through this again.
I cannot go through this again.
I cannot go through this again.
I cannot go through this again.
I cannot go through this again.
I cannot go through this again.

With teeth...
With teeth...
With teeth...
With teeth...

She will not let you go,
Keeps on and on.
She will not let you go,
Keeps on and on.
This time I'm not coming back,
She will not let you go.
This time I'm not coming back,
She will not let you go.

EVERY DAY IS EXACTLY THE SAME




I believe I can see the future,
Cause I repeat the same routine,
I think I used to have a purpose,
But then again, that might have been a dream.

I think I used to have a voice,
Now I never make a sound,
I just do what I’ve been told,
I really don’t want them to come around, oh no.

Every day is exactly the same,
Every day is exactly the same,
There is no love here and there is no pain,
Every day is exactly the same.

I can feel their eyes are watching,
In case I lose myself again,
Sometimes I think I’m happy here,
(Sometimes)
Sometimes, yet I still pretend.

I can’t remember how this got started,
Oh, but I can tell you exactly how it will end.

Every day is exactly the same,
Every day is exactly the same,
There is no love here and there is no pain,
Every day is exactly the same.

I’ll write it on a little piece of paper,
I’m hoping, someday, you might find,
Well I’ll hide it behind something,
They won’t look behind.

I am still inside her,
A little bit comes bleeding through,
I wish this could’ve been any other way,
But I just don’t know, I don’t know what else I can do.

Every day is exactly the same,
Every day is exactly the same,
There is no love here and there is no pain,
Every day is exactly the same.

Every day is exactly the same,
Every day is exactly the same,
There is no love here and there is no pain,
Every day is exactly the same.

THE COLLECTOR




I pick things up, I am a collector,
And things, well things, they tend to accumulate,
I have this net, it drags behind me,
It picks up feelings for me to feed upon.

There are times, plenty of times,
I wish I could let it go,
But it's time to breed,
And it's got to grow inside me.

There are times, plenty of times,
I wish I could let it go,
But it's time to make me think things,
I don't wanna know.

I'm trying to fit it all inside,
I'm trying to open my mouth wide,
I'm trying not to choke,
And swallow it all,
Swallow it all,
Swallow it all,
Swallow it all.

I am the plague,
I am the swarm,
All your heart sticks on me,
And I keep it warm.

It'll make me stay,
It won't let me leave,
There are so goddamn many of them,
It gets hard to breathe.

I'm trying to fit it all inside,
I'm trying to open my mouth wide,
I'm trying not to choke inside,
I am a good boy, and I will,
Swallow it all,
Swallow it all,
Swallow it all.

Every last one...
Every last one...
Every last one...
Every last one...
Every last one...
Every last one...
Every last one...
Every last one...

LOVE IS NOT ENOUGH




The more that we take, the paler we get,
I can't remember what it is we try to forget,
The tile on the floor, so cold it can sting,
In your eyes in a place worth remembering.

For you to go and take this and smash it apart,
I've gone all this fucking way to wind up back at,
Back at the start.

Hey, the closer we think we are,
Well, it only got us so far,
Now you got anything left to show?
No, no, I didn't think so,
Hey, the sooner we realize,
We cover ourselves with lies,
But underneath we're not so tough,
Oh, love is not enough.

Well, it hides in the dark, like the withering vein,
We didn't give it a mouth, so it cannot complain,
We never really had a chance,
We'd never really make it through,
I never think I'd believe,
I believed I could get better with you.

Hey, the closer we think we are,
Well, it never got us so far,
Now you got anything left to show?
No, no, no, no, I didn't think so,
Hey, the sooner we realize,
We cover ourselves with lies,
But underneath we're not so tough,
Oh, love is not enough.

Group: Nine Inch Nails
Song: You're the Best

Try to be best
‘Cause you’re only a man
And a man’s gotta learn to take it

Try to believe
Though the going gets rough
That you gotta hang tough to make it

History repeats itself
Try and you’ll succeed

Never doubt that you’re the one
And you can have your dreams!

You’re the best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you down
You’re the Best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you down
You’re the Best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you dow-ow-ow-ow-own

Fight ‘til the end
Cause your life will depend
On the strength that you have inside you

Ah you gotta be proud
starin’ out in the cloud
When the odds in the game defy you

Try your best to win them all
and one day time will tell
when you’re the one that’s standing there
you’ll reach the final bell!

You’re the best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you down
You’re the Best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you down
You’re the Best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you dow-ow-ow-ho-how-ho-own

INSPIRING GUITAR SOLO

You’re the best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you down
You’re the Best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you down
You’re the Best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you dow-ow-ow-ow-own

Fight ‘til you drop
never stop
can’t give up
Til you reach the top (FIGHT!)
you’re the best in town (FIGHT!)
Listen to that sound
A little bit of all you got
Can never bring you down

You’re the best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you down
You’re the Best!
Around!

repeat to fade, occasional background shouts of “Oh Ye-eah!”

THE LINE BEGINS TO BLUR




There are things I said I would never do,
There are fears I can not believe have come true,
For my soul is too sick and it's too little and too late,
And myself I have grown to weary to hate.

The more I stay in here,
The more it's not so clear,
The more I stay in here,
The more I disappear.

As far as I have gone,
I knew what side I'm on,
But now I'm not so sure,
The line begins to blur.

Is there somebody on top of me?
I don't know, I don't know,
Is anyone stopping me?
I don't know, I don't know,
Why won't try and hold my breath?
I don't know, I don't know,
Just how far can I go?
I don't know, I don't know.

As I lay here,
The fabric starts to tear,
It's far beyond repair,
And I don't really care.

As far as I have gone,
I knew what side I'm on,
But now I'm not so sure,
The line begins to blur.

GETTING SMALLER





Getting alittle erratic here,
And i dont know who to trust,
I guess they got a way of reading my mind,
I guess i gotta adjust,
I got my arms they flip flop flip flop flip,
I got my head on a spring,
Well i thought i got u on my side,
I havent got fucking anything.

Im just a face in the crowd,
Nothing to worry about,
Not even tryin' to stand out,
Im getting smaller,
And smaller and smaller,
And i have nothing to say,
Its all been taken away,
I just behave and obey,
Im afraid that I'm starting to fade away,

I cannot see through the cracks,
When im pressed up on the wall,
Im not looking to stand up real high,
I'd be happy to crawl,
I think i'm losing my grip,
But i can still make a fist,
You know i still got my one good arm,
That i can beat,
Oh that i can beat myself with up with.

Im just a face in the crowd,
Nothing to worry about,
Not even tryin' to stand out,
I'm getting smaller,
And smaller and smaller,
And i have nothing to say,
Its all been taken away,
I just behave and obey,
Im afraid i am starting to fade away.

And for what it is worth,
I really used to believe,
Maybe theirs some great thing,
That we could achieve,
And now i cant tell the difference,
Dont know what to feel,
Between what ive been trying to hard to see,
and what appears to be real.

Fading away...
Fading away...
Fading away...
Fading away...

My world is getting smaller everyday-yea-yea-yea,
My world is getting smaller everyday-yea-yea-yea,
(and thats ok)

My world is getting smaller everyday-yea-yea-yea,
My world is getting smaller everyday-yea-yea-yea,
(and thats ok)



=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=


BESIDE YOU IN TIME




I am all alone this time around,
Sometimes I'll decide I hear a sound,
Places parallel I know it's you,
Feel the little pieces bleeding through.
And on,
This goes on,
And on,
And on,
And on,
And on,
And on,
And on,
And on,
This goes on,
And on,
And on,
And on,
And on,
And on,
And on,
And on,
Now that I've decided not to stay,
I can feel me start to fade away,
Everything is back where it belongs,
I will be beside you before long.
And on,
This goes on,
And on,
And on,
And on,
And on,
And on,
And on,
And on,
This goes on,
And on,
And on,
And on,
And on,
And on,
And on,
And on,
Oh, we will never die,
Oh, beside you in time,
Oh, we will never die,
Oh, beside you in time.

INVISIBLE MAN

You can hardly
wait to tell all your friends
How his kisses taste sweet like wine
And how he always
makes your heart skip a beat
Every time he walks by
And if you're feeling down
He'll pick you up
He'll hold you close when
you're makin' love
He's everything
you've been dreaming of
Oh baby

I wish you'd look at me that way
Your beautiful eyes
lookin' deep into mine
Telling me more than
any words could say
But you don't even know I'm alive
Baby to you all I am
Is the invisible man

You probably spend
hours on the phone
Talkin' 'bout nothing at all
It doesn't matter
what the conversation
Just as long as he called
Lost in a love so real
And so sincere
You wipe away each other's tears
Your face lights up
whenever he appears

I see you all the time baby
The way you look at him
I wish it was me sweetheart
Boy I wish it was me
But I guess I'll never be...

[Chorus]

 

[tonymontana.jr]

my ex's daughter and her tattooed punk freak psychotic boyfriend will be attending the show tomorrow night.

 

[scouser1]

I saw this band years back when they toured with David Bowie and I am sorry but I just find them boring and pretentious that appeal to 15 year old teenage ideal of I am angry but I dont know why, and Trent Resnor please get off your high horse you arent the greatest thing that ever happened to music

 

[Photoguy]

Anessa, who is the opener?

Btw, i just heard Chris Martin of Coldplay on the radio and he said he was at the show last night.... damn... why am i missing out!!!!!

And yes please let me know their setlist... or of what you remember

 

[raiders]

NIN Show was Great

Show one was great, can't wait for round two tonight.

The fact he is now clean and has the energy he does every night to do this kind of effort is a great ad for being fit and living well.

This is the most alive and up I have ever seen him.

If you are a fan and did not pay the money, in some cases a lot of money you missed a great show

There are people at these shows that have come over a thousand miles for these two concerts

 

[langeweile]

I wonder if Annessa like NIN???

 

[xxxseer]

Anessa, who is the opener?

I am not Anessa but the opener was Dresdon Dolls.
They do a pretty cool rendition of War Pigs.

Oh and they are not local. They are from Boston.

AWESOME!
You are going to be at the show tonight? What time are you going to begin waiting in the line up? Perhaps we can go together or meet up outside the venue in the madness of the line ups.
