If you know me, you probably know that:
1. My two favourite bands EVER are Radiohead and Nine Inch Nails
2. It has always been my dream to see them both play the same show.
This fantastical situation became a reality (although I wasn't there) in Chicago, when both bands played lollapalooza. Lucky Chicagonians.
While I won't get to see Trent and Thom share a stage anytime soon, I do get to see both bands within the next couple of weeks. This coming Tuesday, I'm taking a study break to go see NIN at the ACC. I've just seen some setlists, and while The Slip is not my favourite NIN release, I can say that I'm looking forward to hearing some With Teeth and Year Zero stuff played live. This will be the fourth time I'm seeing them, so some new stuff will be good to hear. On the 15th, I'll be seeing Radiohead (for the second time - hooray!!), and I just saw one of their current setlists as well. I'll be super, super happy if they play "All I Need", like they did at the show I just read about.
Even though I've thought lately that I'm getting a little too old and cranky (mostly at the other people there) to go see concerts, I'll always make exceptions for these two bands, as long as I can get a ticket.
... and if I happen to meet a certain frontman backstage somewhere, and I don't happen to come back, don't come looking!
