trent

I went to a Nine Inch Nails concert tonight with Cyrus, Jame, Dylan, and Katy, and dizzam was it badass. We were pretty high up in the nosebleeds, all better tickets having sold out within minutes of the box office opening (I called continuously until I got some and we still ended up on the second level), but it was nevertheless a stupendous concert. Having seen Nine Inch Nails from the moshpit before (on the Fragile tour with Christine, Rodin, Matt, Amrys, Tanis, LeeAnn, and Stephanie), I actually kind of appreciated being able to see throughout the concert and not being bruised and battered by the end of it.

It cannot but be said that Trent is a consummate performer. He had superb control over the mood of the audience throughout the show, bringing them "up" in time to introduce songs from their new album, relaxing the tempo a bit to encompass Hurt, gradually bringing things back up, and ending on the frenzied screams of the audience singing along to Head Like A Hole. Listening to him perform, it's no wonder he's credited with having revolutionized (or is it created?) the genre.

Head (almost) back down: layout calls this weekend, but football, the driving range, and probably some biking lie in wait as well.
