Nine Inch Nails... 1
I forgot to blog about going to see Nine Inch Nails at the Wells Fargo Arena in Des Moines on Febuary 16th. They put on an excellent show. Very cool to hear the old stuff played with the raw intensity of their new material. During the show they project some film images onto a gauze curtain that they performed behind. When it was time to bring the curtain up, they had a really brilliant move where it looked like the curtain shattered like glass because Trent threw the mic stand at the curtain.
Also the opening act, Moving Units was actually quite good as well. Kind of Radiohead meets New Order plus a little Rolling Stones for good measure. Defintiely a band to watch out for. I wish I could have seen Death From Above 1979 opening for NIN though. I would probably still be recovering my hearing from that.
I've added a few pictures from the show to my flickr feed. Mostly they didn't turn out very good, because the stage lights kept shining on those of us in the fifth row.
