Nine Inch Nails
Nine Inch Nails Live Performance of The Frail & The Wretched from the NIN|JA Tour
On May 27, 2009, Nine Inch Nails performed at the Starlight Theater in Kansas City, marking a significant moment in their career as it was part of their 'Wave Goodbye' tour. This tour came shortly after the release of their album 'The Slip' in 2008, showcasing the band at a time when they were contemplating a hiatus. 'The Slip' was notable not only for its darker and more atmospheric sound but also for its free digital download release, reflecting Trent Reznor's progressive approach to music distribution. This live recording offered fans a snapshot of a band ready to bid farewell to a touring era, underscored by the emotional intensity of their performance. Seeing them live during this transition period was a unique opportunity for fans, as it was one of the last chances to experience their powerful, genre-defining sound in a live setting.
