Stage Set-Up
The stage setup was basic, but an added element was two black banners with the letter 'N' on them in white, which hung onstage behind the band. The second 'N' is backwards, implying that the banners were supposed to resemble the NIN logo, but the 'I' is not present in any photos or footage from the tour. The banners had holes in them, most likely to reduce wind resistance as the outdoor stage was sometimes open at the back.

- "Terrible Lie"
- "Sin"
- "Physical"
- "The Only Time"
- "Wish"
- "Get Down, Make Love" and/or "Ringfinger"
- "Down In It"
