Nine Inch Nails

Supported by Jaguar Love.

Right before this show I started getting bummed out because I thought I was wasting my money having seen Nine Inch Nails so many times that I thought there was nothing new they could show me. I was wrong, completely blown away. The Fail/The Wretched intro was awesome and it was so good to hear The Line Begins to Blur being included again.

The power cut out during the intro of Burn, apparently for half of Fox Studios, and we were left in silence and without Air Con for quite some time (53 minutes according to the recording.) But lucky for you I did not include all this. All you’re missing out on is not being able to hear Trent on a megaphone, and the crowd doing their own covers of Bohemian Rhapsody. During this period the band went around handing out water and when they finally started again, claimed they would not being playing a minute less, though the venue turned the house lights on before they even left the stage preventing their encore. But when they started up the show again, absolutely no momentum was lost and they fucking rocked it as if nothing had happened.

Can’t wait to see them 3 more times.

Jaguar Love killed it as a support act, Johnny’s vocals are so amazing live. But in true KMW style they started very early and was too late for me to record. The new set up for their band is great though.

Put your headphones on and turn it up.
