NIN plays The Downward Spiral in its entirety

At Webster Hall in New York City tonight, Nine Inch Nails played the The Downward Spiral in its entirety, front to back, followed by nearly a dozen additional songs. Words cannot sufficiently convey the bristling intensity of the setlist. At one point, Trent paused to note the significance of the moment, telling the audience they had witnessed history as he'd always wanted to play the album in full and probably never will again. The event's being discussed here and here on ETS and here on nin.com, and probably several others places on both messageboards. Check it out.
