2008/09/06 Inglewood, CA

Nine Inch Nails played at the Forum in Inglewood, California, on September 6, 2008 as part of the Lights In The Sky Tour. Deerhunter was the opening act.

Notes

• Early in the show, Robin Finck had problems with his guitar and after a while grew frustrated and smashed it against the floor, while the crew scrambled to get him a new guitar.

• Justin Meldal-Johnsen apparently had bass problems near the end, but was quickly given a new one.

• During the performance of "The Hand That Feeds", a photo of George W. Bush was displayed behind the band, and as the band played the photo gradually morphed into John McCain.

• Trent Reznor thanked the crowd after "Echoplex" and said something along the lines of: "Let me introduce my band that does all the work, I don't do anything, I'm just here because I look damn good." Then after introducing each member, he turned to them and said: "Something bright and uplifting, or dark and depressing?" Then they went into "Reptile".
