i used to have a sizeable man crush on Robin
Holy crap, I want a touchscreen drum machine, like right now.
Alright, I had to find out what that thing is. It’s a Lemur, made by JazzMutant.
iDrum!
I adore Josh Freese.
The striking thing to me is how PROFESSIONAL they are. All I’ve been into lately is underground punk, local trash, and avant garde sloppiness. Just viewing something this tight, this clinically pristine, is a nice change. I would like to see some Pretty Hate Machine video liveness, you know Robin (Slash’s Snake Pit? Seriously?) misses those riffs.

Nine Inch Nails Lights in the Sky Rehearsal Videos
Wed 06/25/08
Pitchfork.tv has three clips of Nine Inch Nails rehearsing for their upcoming Lights In The Sky tour, all directed by Rob Sheridan who has done live visuals, motion graphics, videos, etc. for NIN in the past and is currently their art director.
This looks to be an incredible live band set-up for NIN, including a returning Robin Finck on lead guitar, Josh Freese on drums (he’s a personal favorite and that touchscreen drumloop interface he’s using at the beginning of the Echoplex clip is incredible!), former Beck bassist Justin Meldal-Johnsen and Alessandro Cortini on keys and guitar.
