Changes

During In the spirit of Halloween, Robin Finck appeared on stage wearing a Leatherface mask for the first few songs of the concert. Trent and the rest of the band were also highly energetic during the show. Some of this energy may have resulted from the technical difficulties the band was experiencing on stage. Trent appeared to be very pissed about his guitar, lighting, and sound during the concert. In the opening moments of [[Echoplex]], when [[Josh Freese]] tried to activate the LCD touch LCD screen drum machine, it failed , and the beat had to be activated by soundboard. During Trent later commented on this and the absence of one of his crew members during an extended talk with the crowd, during which he also introduced the band, before performing "The Good Soldier." Here is Trent's speech in full:  “Thank you very much for spending Halloween here with us. It’s almost becoming a breaktradition. Thank you. So we normally don’t say too much on stage, but I’ll share something that’s on my mind. We have one of our crew guys who went missing today. I’m not lying. This is not a joke. He’s the guy in charge of tech with the screens. So we don’t – no one knows where he went, and we’re kind of winging it, hoping everything works, and [there’s] a lot of things fucking up tonight, but our main concern is that we find this guy, [Trent Reznorbe]] commentedcause he’s our friend. So that’s on my mind, and then somebody, some, saying that it was because uh – let me think of how to put this. When we played Echoplex, we had some trickery going on up here, and some "cocksucker with out there has a little laser pointerand decided to fuck us up tonight. Now, the old me – a few years ago – I would’ve said someone punch the motherfucker in the face or send him up here and I’ll punch the shit out of him." He But see, that was then went on . Now I’m just gonna calmly let it go. But if anybody does see someone with a laser pointer, I can’t be responsible for what might happen or should happen to say the since motherfucker who was shining it at the main visual guy went missing today (he said he hoped they would find him)screen. Meanwhile, we’ve got family here. I’m swearing, they had been winging it visuallyI’m sorry. I’d like to introduce my excellent band and friends. ”  He also said that playing then went on Halloween in Nashville is turning into a "nice traditionto introduce the band and introduced Justin Meldal-Johnsen as Justin “Noble” Johnsen."
