Reviewers across North America are raving about the shows:

"The band was flawless, Reznor was afire, and rock music temporarily found salvation - millennium style, with pieces of all that pop music means for today's over-stimulated, under-nourished youth?" - The Gazette (Montreal), May 1, 2000

" Starsuckers, Inc.� has clearly already taken a special place in NIN fans� hearts. A panoramic glance of the Coliseum during this song revealed that the audience members who were not jumping up and down during the song could have been counted on the digits of a hand." - The Daily Cardinal (Madison, WI), April 24, 2000

"?his songs suggested smudged, impressionistic snapshots of rock ?n� roll�s past, mutant visions of classic songcraft. The Rolling Stones� sneering, leering ?Star, Star� became the brutal kiss-off ?Star[expletive], Inc.� "? - Chicago Tribune, April 24, 2000
