Lights in the Sky

For those not aware, NIИ is currently on their Lights in the Sky Over North America tour, and making their stops throughout the US and Canada. Tomorrow night marks the 5th performance of the tour. Just a few days ago [July 26th], the first "official" day of the tour, they stopped in Seattle, and I got to see the most amazing band ever preform live! :o)

In This Twilight


We got there a bit late, so we missed most of Crystal Castles' performance. And frankly I'm not too upset about that... I do admit to liking two of their songs [Crimewave and Alice Practice], but they kind of scare me.

Anyways, NIN was AMAZING. They played lot of my favourite songs [and I have to say, Year Zero is now finally starting to grow on me] and the light show was spectacular. Apart from there being some idiots in the audience, it was an awesome night.

Since I'm very talented, I took my camera in with me and got some kickass pictures....

Robin, Josh, and that nine inch nails guy..... whatshisface... oh, right, Trent ;o)

He lost an arm. Poor guy.

Why does Justin always stare up at the sky?

Nevermind.

Survivalism, with a live 'music-video-like' visuals. We got to see a lady pee, people walking around, and creepy closeups of Trent screaming. Yay.

Love the lighting.

I guess they decided it's cool to hide from the audience behind a screen for half the show.

Pink.

Head Like A Hole, or The Hand That Feeds or something weird like that.

Pink again...?

Bow down before the one you serve....
