On September 9, 2005, Trent Reznor appeared on ReAct Now, a benefit show (broadcast on September 10) put together by Viacom to raise funds to help those affected by Hurricane Katrina. Although the bulk of the show was broadcast from Madison Square Garden in New York, some artists, including Reznor, appeared from Paramount Studios in Hollywood.
On this show Reznor performed three songs acoustically and premiered a new song, "Non-Entity", which was an outtake from With Teeth. "Hurt" was sung with the lyrical change heard in Johnny Cash's cover of the song, and "Non-Entity" was done with a boombox sitting on top of the piano providing beats. The video of "Non-Entity" and "Hurt" could later be purchased via internet for $0.99 and $1 respectively, with the money going to the American Red Cross and other charities.
