an afternoon with Nine Inch Nails...

26MAY2009 - Englewood, CO

NIN/JA Tour

The strangest NIN show ever. 

Street Sweeper Social Club played for about 30min. Then NIN played for about 1hr 30min. Then Jane's Addiction played for about 1hr. 

The sun didn't go down until Jane's Addiction played.

The crowd was not a NIN crowd.

There was a five year old girl that thought Trent Reznor was Jesus.

Little girl, bottom left... 

Trent wore purple leather pants...

and the show was actually boring...

Dear Trent Reznor,

Please never tour with Jane's Addiction or any other band with a large following. Their fans aren't fun like the NIN'ers.  Also, make a note... the only acceptable time to play outside in Colorado is July or August.  You should know this by now, or did you already forget that you froze you balls off in Sept. 2008 at Red Rocks.  Oh, and we appreciate the visuals that go with your shows, so please play in the dark and calm it with the fog machine... poor drummer boy was hidden most of the show.

Thank you,

Emily

semi-nerd stuff...

for the book people

for the trekkies...

yes... that's trey.

some valuable lessons i learned as a photography assistant:

• always carry a sharpie. (eric always said, "a good assistant always carries a sharpie" and he was right. it's surprising how often one is needed.)
• how to properly wind a cord. (over, under, over, under...)
• anticipate ones needs (by doing this you become more useful to those around you)
• it's difficult to read ones mind when they focus too much on one thing (naked lesbian pool party)
• you will never have to buy groceries if you are willing to eat left overs (especially large amounts of one item such as a giant bag of Sonic chicken fingers or 30 packs of King's Hawaiian rolls.)
• working for free will not always get you paid work, but you might have fun and will be fed for the day.
• most of the people you meet on a set are not your friends. they are merely connections.
• never walk into an office and immediately look at the television. you never know what you might see and some people don't mind watching their porn at work. 
• don't break stuff!

I'm sure there are many more, but these were the few that really stuck with me. Either because there was some sort of shock value (like walking into an office with porn on the television) or it was actually useful elsewhere, not just on set.
