ERIE ROCKS!!

NIN · Post by **NIN** » Wed Mar 08, 2006 2:52 am

The place was packed and jumping! What a show, NIN can still enrage a floor into a mosh pit frenzy with March of Pigs, Wish, etc. etc.. I had a blast and that venue was perfect. Up close and personnal but just big enough for a loud crowd.

Trent Rezner dose'nt waste time **** except for the occausional "thank you" and what not. He did take time out to speak this gem: "I have had alot of interveiws over the years and the most frequently asked question is about where all the hatred, depression, angst, etc. etc. comes from...I tell them I have lived in Pennsylvannia for 18 years."

Cue the bass for "Only" and the rock kept rolling. Phenominal show.

Let me just say that I am over joyed that he has appearently gotten through that awkward stage in his life. He shaved the hair and is a big mean angry SOB just like he sounds.

I would also like to share with you my releif that the guy who sings "Ziggy Stardust" wasn't there because my bud told me they made out on stage during the Lallapaloza tour. I am by no means a homophob but I do not care for seeing that stuff. Gay is gay but flamming homo-sexuality could be a serious buzz kill at a concert as intense as that.

Speaking of gay, that frog is possing very suggestively. Is it female or male?

I stared the sun down from the warf. Everywhere I go I notice how flat the terrain is compared to Pittsburgh. Erie is very very flat.

You've lost all cred by not knowing David Bowie

Oh I knew. It was a failed attempt at suggestion a certain baord member is figalus. Of course with my handle I am surprised that I don't get even more personal attacks.

naw ppl don't attack you because they fear your Brentwood hoodconnections.

Are you suggesting that the Brentwood beatings are like my very own Cairns looking over everyones shoulder as they type?

Speaking of racist pigs, Saul Williams is very outspoken about that stuff. It is a heavy NIN sounding mix of sounds and he just goes on a torrent of rapping about everything. I enjoyed it. The last thing anybody expects to get from NIN show is a renewed sense of racial tolerance and hope from a black rapper. Only a few people shouted,"get of the stage n^%&^r!" and the creative "you suck".

I think Brentwood still has a way to go to get to Erie's tolerance level.

Erie-ites are pissed ebcause they may have to pay an additional $.03 a ticket for the Otters. fans only sellout Seawolves games when it's buck night. It's only alternative station folded from upset people that didnt even listen to the station cried because the "shock jock" said Walt Disney was gay on air. i'm honestly shocked they let NIN and Motley Crue in. Is Brentwood that tightly wound?

Not at all. There are plenty of black people walking around and I assume living around here as well. Seems like an ordinary neighborhood to me, but I havent been here that long.

He could have gotten pulled over half a mile up 51 and the name Brentwood is never associated with it. Just a tragic incident that has alot more to do with racism then a lower class suberb if you ask me.

Of course I did'nt even live here so my entire point is mute and insenitive to a guy that died violently. I was trying to be witty Sppon because I desperately need your constant attention paid to my posts.

I guess what I am trying to say is that...there is alittle frog in all of us...

hahaha it's 3pm and you're drunk arent you. HA!

I'm just a bitter old man today so no one is safe. Not even Stoosh's dog.

Seems like all of PA is a bit prudish about stuff. Nothing wrong with trying to maintain a family oriented community and if the Crue or NIN were family oriented they would'nt be shocking and I probably would'nt like them at all. I would travel alot farther then Erie to see them perform but im glad they were able to get them to play there.

There are alot of places that don't welcome the fathers of hate-rock, even 20 miles north of where it was born. When I was driving up I noticed all the trees but as soon as I enetered Mercer county the song "The Day the World Went Away" began and all the trees became the kind that don't have leaves. I am no botonist so all I can tell you is that they were not pine trees. It looked like the skeletal remains of a cold forgotten forrest, a sinkhole of evil if you will. It really got my psyched for the show. Couple that with the cool scenery of watching the sunset over a frozen lake (that I failed miserably at skipping a quarter accross) with the techno sounding factory dronning in the background and its easy to see where the kid got his immaginative sounds.

Don't make me stop this car...

NIN · Post by **NIN** » Thu Mar 09, 2006 12:16 pm

COOL! This time I am not asking for "best seat available" because they put me right at the side of the stage. I missed all the trippy film clips during like 3 tunes.
