The internet is full of surprises these days. I was contacted by a mysterious, shadowy group of subversives who SOMEHOW managed to film a substantial amount (over 400 GB!) of raw, unedited HD footage from three separate complete shows of our Lights in the Sky tour. Security must have been lacking at these shows because the quality of the footage is excellent. If any of you could find a LINK to that footage I’ll bet some enterprising fans could assemble something pretty cool.
Oh yeah, you didn’t hear this from me.”
Surprise, the little gift from Nine Inch Nails isn’t really little. I was a little sad that I do not have the storage space or even the high end video card necessary to take advantage of this gift, but not to worry, there is a collection of Nine Inch Nails fans working to make this enjoyable for all fans. Prior to this release of massive amount of live footage, the group of fans were already working on a fan made DVD of the final show from Las Vegas. Now that same group is working to include the footage from the three additional shows with the footage Trent Reznor and crew has given us.
Thank you Trent Reznor, the coolest man on the face of the planet, for the gift of music and inspiring your fans to work together for the benefit of all. I am looking forward to see what the fan base comes up with for a live, Lights in the Sky tour DVD.
