I only found one name under "support" on the NIN website, so I can only assume there is only one. As for when Trent takes the stage, I would wager 8ish.

NIN was awesome in Pemberton, I'm not even much of a fan and I thought it was awesome.

So tired, after two nights in a row in a NIN mosh pit (Edm & Cal) but so worth it. Great show, unless you have epilepsy. Anyways, I need some sleep...

her name was crystal castles. she had such a weird vocal style, and ill admit some of it was kinda bad... but i thought a couple songs were decent.

just got home
fantastic concert, didnt bother to stay in the pit for the opening act, the beat was pretty good, but didnt care too much for the vocals, so I just went and drank on the concourse
the floor was pretty tame for a NIN concert, but of the three times that ive seen them, I would probably have to say that this was the best

That was awesome. I can't believe the creativity of the dudes who set up the lights/stage show.

Anyone know where you can get the setlist?

The concert kicked so much ass. The effects were amazing. I can't pick out a single part that was my favorite, it was all awesome. The sequencer screw up was pretty funny.

My only complaint was Crystal Castles. The sampling was solid, I liked the beat, I'm sure the girl can sing...Why in the hell did she have to screech every word into the microphone? It hurt my ears to no end, and it didn't make them sound good at all. When she wasn't doing that I thought they were pretty good for an act I'd never heard before.

I saw them last night and the night before in EDM. Floor tix both time and insanely good setlists both times. Picked up about $150 of merch including a hoodie, tour poster, hat and 2 tees.

God I hope Trent cancels the rest of the tour and just plays Calgary over and over.

And yeah Crystal Castles does suck. I heard she doesn't sound as awful on the actual album but that woman cannot sing live. It's like a cat in heat with a microphone.
