2009/05/29 Chicago, IL

Nine Inch Nails played at the Charter One Pavilion in Chicago, Illinois, on May 29, 2009. Street Sweeper Social Club also performed.

Notes

• The soundcheck was Home, Non-Entity, The Good Soldier, and 1,000,000.
• NIN did not play the whole set because of crufew. The other songs that were supposed to be played were Echoplex, Dead Souls and In This Twilight.
• Trent forgot the words to nearly the entire second verse of Terrible Lie, repeating the first line in the first verse, "Why are you doing this to me?", and the rest of the verse played out something like this: "Am I not....mmmmmmmmmmmm. Ah. - I ama blahh, a dop a dobb beleb", Finishing the verse with the correct lyric: "Can this world really be as sad as it -fucking- seems?" Trent, later that night, said to the audience with good humour, "...that's how it's done now".
• Trent commented on it being a particularly cold night, saying: "It's our summer tour, and I forgot to bring my ski mask."
