[hokecybil570]

stale inscents.....not bad audio for 89 lol

[SweetCandyTOXIC]

Just perfect, such an incredible song ♥

[TheAndiePerson]

Press 3 and watch what he does. Then keep pressing 3 and keep laughing.

[Estronom1]

Breakdown = good opportunity to wreck some instruments ;)

[hornman82]

Would have loved to see them in a little intimate venue like this one back in the day....raw as fuck

[zepheramzarah]

Awesome is the only word that comes to mind here.

[moz85214]

ComatoseCA, who didn't have their have like that (myself included). I miss those early days! This looks like the club NIN played in Phoenix when they did a couple of warm up gigs for the Self Destruct tour. I remember shows were announced the morning of both shows and I barely got a hold of tix for both nights... sold out in minutes! Ah those were the days!

[hadontcare]

I just can't help but stare at Trent's clothes the hole video......... they amuse me

My sin comes down to this!!

[MrLastStop]

this is just balls out kick ass straight up good shit! that richard patrick on guitar??

[princesskellysue]

[princesskellysue]

[ap82]

Great stuff

[mechafett5]

What an amazing time in music. Thankfully Trent has continued to soldier on and the fire in his soul hasn't faded.

[252477514]

hmmm the stage looks really small and crowded but then again only reznor even under these conditions could kick ass

[TheNineinchsnails]

i am very happy that trent is wearing a belt and his shirt is tucked in...the hair is

[NINgatita]

man those were the days....although I was only 1. but look how far they've come. nin forever

[mvspiralgirl]

You're right. that is a good scream.

[PJP9623]

2:15-2:18...the scream of a God. Only other person in the world who can scream like that is Maynard James Keenan.

[AOCRkid]

mike patton beats maynard's ass.

[sickolinokio]

@PJP9623 so truth

[SoRedtheRose]

And eleven days later...I was born in Red Bank, NJ.

[ComatoseCA]

I had my haircut like that in 1989.

[AnaTwiggy]

wow trent was 23....

[AeonlLives]

omg i was 3 in newark at the time god i wish stuff like this was still around

[8Dnin]

too bad i was only born months before this. my favorite song of all time. last time he sounded this good on this song was on all tht cuda been

[ninmachine109]

That scream is unbelievable

[ninmachine109]

trent was my age now.....i feel very non famous lol

[raveboy33]

i was the house Dj at the PIPELINE..and was at this show...actually it was filmed from my DJ booth...and i drove the band to Newark train station after the show,Trent wanted to go to NYC...

[ninmachine109]

thats awesome man. did you get the chance to talk to him?

[feckkol]

Definetly fell like the sounds and effects in the earlier years were more focused then now where the guitar fills in a lot. The sound effects are more background in mainly the live performances. No matter what though NIN will always dominate music of it's kind.

[BluBel123]

I was like 3 years old

[Meetero]

Slightly better sound and effects on their current tours :B

[accountname098]

yea yea just a little bit :X

[jeepee2]

yeah but not that much :P

[carter988]

good old eightys

great

thx

[lildeniel]

Nice V neck! I love Trent!

Ahead of his time!

[Sausagedesigner]

The energy! This performace's so much better

[jrquilty]

all the touring they did for PHM got them a step bigger in the music world. espcially around 1991 and the release of Broken and TDS and Self Destruct Tou 1994 and Woodstock '94 got them huge.

[jewggerz]

Yeah, and then the Bowie tour then the Fragility tour then the With Teeth tour now this tour! Just to finish up your pointless recap.

[jrquilty]

i doubt they were thinking " wow this is history" cause NIN was still they a medium/local band in '89 still a really good band by the way. Hate 1990 Tour got them alot bigger.

[jrquilty]

i miss Trent's long hair from the Fragile tour..hes bald and buff now lol

[zones101]

Well buff maybe but not bald, just short back and sides.

[jeepee2]

I miss his longer hair from the Self Destruct tour!

[bologna1400]

I wonder if the people who were there realized that they were part of rock history?

[vurtuality]

It's possible. I certainly knew it first time someone played this album.

[konkelberryfinn]

i guess many people did ask themselves.

It's so fuckin' brilliantly done.

[boyztomen]

They did, but they just didn't give a fuck.

[adarkangelac]

I miss the old nin from back in the day. Starting with the fragile it's all been down hill from there. He can't even scream no more has his backups doing all the heavy parts.

[sgf1989]

that's such a team america quote, I like that movie

[MustBeUnearthed]

Did he shave the front of his head or something? Awesome : P

[Trentholic92]

his hair... no. his scream... yes.lol. great vid. thanx 4 posting!

[reznoria]

wooh this place so small and dark and the crowed near of trent they're lucky .. and that scream fucking 5 stars

[CorrosivePigHead]

Just so fuuuucking amazing. Thanks for this one. Back then when Trent was a real underground badass involved with all those industrial bands of the late 80´s-early 90`s (working with Al Jourgensen & company... being a member of Pigface... touring with bands like Skinny Puppy, PIG, Die Krupps, The Young Gods... remixing KMFDM, being remixed by Foetus, etc, etc, etc..) But then, he discovered money and fame and, since then, keeps making shity music fot the MTV generation. So sad.

[CrossOfLorraine]

An artist who is the real undeground (like you said) in 42 is loser...understand? If Reznor have money it's because he's a great musician...why you have problem with it?

[amaniteprototype]

Exactly

[zeelog1]

CorrosivePigHead, are you bitter, small minded? His music has gotten better, it's not so self absorbed. Now don't go slitting your wrists.

[tutusbean]

Enough said. It´s obvious you don´t know fucking shit of what I´m talking about... I´m talking about industrial music... Got that??!! Fucking idiot kids. Pardon me but I´m a fucking industrialist of the 80´s who lived and experienced the industrial revolution, the decade when NIN did this. Please research and then talk..... again, FUCKING KIDS.

[machineinfection]

damn u are pissed

[tutusbean]

Oh fuck, sorry.... my mistake... the last comment was posted by me: CorrosivePigHead

[ruiner2121]

wow...can't say enough about that scream

[kikaijin]

I remember that tour. Back then their show was at small venue's but today it's a stadium concert. Over all this is the best album.

[666Nukes]

Woahhhh!  It seems they had a more explosive energy back then in the undergound.

[muslimmusician]

Indeed. Groups tend to be more powerful/energetic when they're five feet from the fans. It's quite amazing what being that close to the crowd does to you.

[MzMaihem]

Ooooh thanks njscorpio....this is fucking amazing.

[mooky9669]

I had Pretty Hate Machine on cassette when I was younger...I started listening to them when I was in my teens and after The Downward Spiral...I quit listening to them for some reason...I haven't heard the new stuff yet, but heard the RIAA was in an uproar about the new NIN tracks being leaked...Trent was the one who wanted them to be leaked...guess it's a matter of miscommunication.

[korndawg879]

no, more like greed. trent's been bashing almost everyone in the record industry cuz theyre ripping off fans and suing people just to make a buck. even someone involved with producing the record said the RIAA was being retarded cuz they attacked something the label signed off on..

[kamikazit]

Wow, the scream does sound amazing, with the echo near the end.

Trent looks like an angry dork <3!

[jrquilty]

that scream sounds so wicked lol. Sin is one of the best songs ever.

[reznorfan15]

look at trents shirt all nice and tucked in!

[thelowerclass]

look at all those lucky mutherfuckers in the crowd...

[bsdaemon666]

wow.... this is OLD... and amazing

[greyishblue666]

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK! I wish my then 10 year old ass was into them and NOT C+C Music Factory at that time...but I repented and mended my ways by age 11-12 :)

[jimmibear]

They opened for the Jesus and Mary Chain in Philly and blew the audience away.

[bunone4billy]

I wish I saw them back then but I was 7

[UKHoboso]

this gig looked like it was SOOOOO much fun

[tintin23x]

it looks like the "Pipeline" in newark, goodtimes goodtimes, shit was that almost 20 years ago?
