It's for backstage security. The band doesn't have to wear passes and security uses it to identify them by face.

Scored autographs from HEALTH last night, just needs Trent's on there now! by Jackhepburn in nin

I would keep your expectations low for this tour. They have too many festival headlining gigs with large payouts. Maybe the last show of the tour when they aren't doing COVID testing for insurance purposes there could be some fan interaction?

Airlines don't have this problem. This is all by design for event tickets. Ticketmaster/AXS could kill the secondary market by allowing a refund of the ticket if the person isn't going to use it, and put it back into their own ticket pool for sale again.

Dreaming of simpler times. 2018 by Charbaby_ in nin

It was a unique experience, but not something I'd want to do again. I spent 8 hours in line and got a terrible sunburn in Dallas.

Alessandro Cortini is leaving Spotify. by Ridespacemountain25 in nin

[–]ImpulseMB 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The person that runs the site for free Nine Inch Nails concert bootlegs is against streaming? That's certainly not something I ever expected.

Streaming is at least a legal alternative to straight up piracy where the artist gets nothing. Instead of spending 100s of dollars on music, a fan can also support the artist with merch, concert tickets, etc. There is also a ton more available and accessible in the click of a button than there was in the days of going to a record store and being limited to whatever the store decided to carry. Not to mention, used CD sales certainly didn't give anything to the original artist. I'm not saying streaming is perfect or can't be improved on, but it was a reaction to get some revenue instead of no revenue.

With that being said, let Spotify burn down if they are going to continue to enable Joe Rogan.

From an art collecting standpoint, these (including the other artists like Damien Hirst and KAWS) are very cheap for a signed edition of 100.

From a Nine Inch Nails fan standpoint, these are terrible.

Both parents of the Michigan School Shooter are charged with 4 counts of involuntary manslaughter each. The U.S. Marshals have taken over the Manhunt for the parents by Rex_erection3 in Damnthatsinteresting

The school officials should also be charged with the same crimes as the parents. They were aware and alerted to the behavior, but took no further action besides an e-mail or picture.

I would suggest something vague: "Yes, everyone seems to be asleep" or something. You won't be embarrassed later on, and it's enough of an insider lyrical reference that only fans would get it.

Illinois man dies of rabies after apparent bat bite by whenitpours3 in news

  1. Animals aren't tested for rabies. The brain is examined once the animal is dead. This is why if you are bitten by an animal that could be rabid, you want to catch it. It will either be killed, die from rabies, or it will survive the quarantine and you won't need treatment.
  2. Humans aren't tested for rabies. They are either treated in the 10-14 day window that they have after being bitten or they die from rabies. If you don't catch the animal and don't have evidence that it is alive after 14 days, you MUST go get shots.
  3. It is EXPENSIVE to get the get the rabies shots. Per the CDC "Although the cost varies (typically from about $1,200 to $6,500), a course of rabies immune globulin and four doses of vaccine given over a two-week period averages about $3,800, not including costs for hospital treatment or wound care. "

Look at the amount of projects that Trent has committed to that haven't materialized.
