do you have any pics or info about that part of the fragile tour where trent had what I can only describe as the goth makeup?? the black crusty lipstick and eye makeup and white foundation are a Look
my first ask and it's about the fragile ... god bless 🙏
of course i have pics of this look !! plenty of them actually and i will dump them all here on request
quick warning for very brief talk of overdose. and yapping
here's some pics from which i don't happen to know the exact show ... i'm working on finding out because i'm not at all a proper archivist i just do this for fun lol
BUT i do know some stuff about this specific look. to my knowledge, this is mostly if not exclusively from fragility V2.0, particularly the later parts of it. this is around the time where he overdosed as well
these pics from roskilde festival, 2000/06/29, are from just two days before
and this more popular one from the forestglade festival, 2000/07/08, was taken only a week after
there's some threads abt it on reddit, where people who were around to witness it talk about the fragility tour. someone talked about how when the fragile was released and in the first few shows he'd cut his hair to that nice short fluffy look and seemed a bit more mature, and that 'by spring he was back to this.'
obviously tragedy and suffering is not all there is to it. it's also just a cool and iconic stage look, and since it is kind of difficult to find any interviews where they actually discuss this look (or maybe i haven't looked hard enough) it being related to his state at the time is just an observation i gathered from what people have had to say about this tour and the specific timeframe these pics are from. maybe it has nothing to do with it at all. just my thoughts on it.
which, if anyone actually has more information about it or knows of an interview where this look is actually discussed pls send it my way. like i said i'm not a proper archivist i just collect and research for fun, so i love learning new stuff 🙏
40, do you have a cover song that tops the original : ironically my answer to this would be the title of the question. i know there are objectively way better and iconic covers out there, but get down make love has to be my favorite
i remember attempting to listen to the original. i spent the entire song waiting for something, and i mean ANYTHING interesting to happen. it did not. it was one of the most boring songs i've ever heard. i'm amazed that anyone could turn such a shit ass song into something listenable. but if anyone can do it it's trent reznor
44, have you ever been in a full on physical fight : plenty of times (timmy tough knuckles over here)
it was just fights at school when i was younger, like 13-14 years old, but i did get into them frequently. mostly self defense. of course i was the one who would get into trouble afterwards
nowadays not really. the closest i got to being in a fight was actually at the nin show i attended on 6/29, but it was very one sided because i was the only one who was actually annoyed and the other party was more than likely just wasted and having a good time lmfao
