At first I wasn't much excited about the idea but since my friend is a huge fan of them and it was probably one in a life time opportunity for him to see them, I acceded to go with him.
The place where the concert took place was very cool and actually was bigger than other concert places I've been. Another thing which made it bigger was the fact that was the second concert on the same city and it was not as crowded as the first one.
While hanging around I asked to someone if she knew who were going to open the show (I was hopping to take something good from the concert), and for my big surprise I was told that a Pakistani band were in charged of opening the show.
So... they started playing and I already wanted to leave. What a shitty band! Really, it is not because they are from a weird country to me or because their looks (all of that was OK). It was the music... they played some kind of stupid, bastard, retarded punk who really got into my nerves. All of them seem pretty stoned and besides that, there wasn't anything else interesting about them.
Finally they finished and half an hour later NIN started playing.
The show was actually very good! The combination of lights, the sound and the on stage interpretation were great.
As you may understand for what I've written, I am no NIN fan... but I actually enjoyed many of the songs and ended the show jumping with my friend (who by the way was so fucking amazed, bedazzled, excited, etc).
The only song I knew entirely was "Closer" and maybe because of it... the one I enjoyed the most.
Have to say that they were worthy of my time and money, because even though I might never become a NIN fan... I will certainly enjoy some of their music.
