And All That Could Have Been (also known as Halo 17) is a live album set and double DVD released by Nine Inch Nails in 2002. The live album contains music recorded during the Fragility v2.0 US tour in 2000; a limited edition set added a second disc titled Still containing "deconstructed" versions of previous NIN songs and some new material. The double DVD set, sold separately, has video recordings of the songs performed on the CD, as well as additional song performances and footage from the Fragility 2.0 tour.

Still

Still contains subdued renditions of older songs and four new songs. According to the NIN website, four of the songs were "recorded live in a deconstructed fashion." Instruments include piano, acoustic guitar, electric piano, or other 'real' instruments backed by computer-generated synth textures.

Reznor said that "Adrift and At Peace" is the conclusion of "La Mer" from The Fragile. Some of the tracks of Still are evolutions of rejected themes that were originally written for Mark Romanek's One Hour Photo. "Leaving Hope" is also the name under which Reznor has published music since the beginning of his songwriting career. Reznor later allowed "Leaving Hope" to be used in a public service announcement for Hurricane Katrina disaster relief.

Videos for the performances of "Something I Can Never Have" (with Jerome Dillon), "The Becoming" (with Dillon and Danny Lohner), and "Gone, Still" were published on the official NIN website.

The band also performed an intimate acoustic set at the Chicago Recording Company during the Fragility 2.0 tour, which is available online and on bootleg CD, as The CRC Sessions; it includes arrangements of "Something I Can Never Have" and "The Day the World Went Away" that prefigure their Still recordings, as well as two versions of "Hurt" and full band performances of "The Fragile", "Even Deeper", and "The Big Come Down".

  • @ericwadeeric "Oh, and "Annie" was abstractly referring to a college sweetheart/ heartbreak situation that, at the time I was writing that song, was a valid source of emotional pain to draw from. Her real name is Andrea Mulrain, and her phone number is [number deleted for privacy purposes. -Patriot Act Ed.]"—Trent Reznor
