Josh Freese drumming "March Of The Pigs" live with NIN

Here's part 2 of the live stuff I filmed with a few FLIP cameras around my drums towards the end of the "Lights In The Sky" tour. Pretty much straight out bashing (cool 7/8 stuff in the verses) but this one was exciting to play every night. One of my favorite moments in the set every night that I always looked forward to was 2nd Verse up through the breakdown.

Holy shit -- Those babies in the tub freaked me out!

[@paulysawdustpunk4862]

WFT was that!!! Hahaha i don't care this song still gets me hyped up !!!

[@hitskin666]

Was unexpected to say the least

[@sierrahenheffer9601]

Every time I mention josh and Jason Freese are my cousins no one believes me until I bring out the family Christmas cards and pictures 😊 love it

[@Turk_2023]

Hope you got to see him with NIN and APC

[@danielsayers3740]

... show us the cards. Can't bring that up and not deliver

[@sierrahenheffer9601]

@@danielsayers3740 how do I even show you this isn’t like Facebook where I can send pictures in comments

[@larrytate1657]

Can you find out which kick pedal Josh uses for me

[@sierrahenheffer9601]

@@larrytate1657 yeah I can get my father to text him/ his mom but not sure - I can’t have his number since I’m underage still and if I lose my phone or something happens and the number gets out I’ll be in shit

[@tommynikon2283]

CONGRATS Josh......the Foo's new drummer!!!! Long live the music....you EARNED it!

[@hthib9132]

Josh doesn’t need to earn anything… he’s the Tom Brady of drummers and can get any gig he wants… I’m sure Dave begged him to fill the spot

[@mkedan6741]

This is why Mr. Freese is in such high demand. He also seems like a down to earth guy in real life, doesn't take things too seriously.

[@Bobsnarls]

Not sure if you've realized 8 years later. How this comment aged perfectly lol.

[@jz8179]

Josh freese is sooo freaking awesome at drums.He makes it look so effortless and then the snare he bangs the shit out of it.Hes just very good all around.

[@antony716]

25 years and still not tired of this song

[@bobbobber6897]

Honestly people...How fucking crazy is this?! Freese is a Total Beast! This perspective is killer! Song has that freaked out beat, just shakes my soul up perfectly...or some shit! BLAMMO!

[@barbamatteo]

Josh made his own every song he play, this is the sign of pure talent. Passion and fun for drumming, not just a job for every band. This is why everybody call Josh to play drums.

[@BewareTheWater11]

the babies crying mimicing that weird sound at that part of the song makes me laugh my ass off. Josh, you are the man.

[@activehead]

The guy is fucking amazing, he actually can play to the most beautiful dynamic rythms to the kick ass stuff like this, without a doubt he is one of the most completed drummers nowadays

[@platosev]

1:20 Trent throwing a mic stand like a boss

[@AltCTRLF8]

platosev i wonder if a roadie has to go pick it up re-set it, only for Trent to toss it again in the next song

[@iridiumvalkyrie9017]

Won’t ever see that again with the new line up/ energy

[@schnozz87]

@@AltCTRLF8 haha probably every single time

[@chaseg]

When I saw them in 2009 he launched a Les Paul backwards like that

[@CDogg74]

I’m struggling to comprehend this was 10 years ago. Jeezo I feel old! X

[@lanoctambulephotos]

Josh is the freaking MAN, best drummer NIN ever had. I remember when he broke his foot on tour with APC and had to learn how to play his kick with the other foot. You couldn’t tell the difference. Dude is amazing.

[@39sakuraba39]

I seen APC during that tour...amazing

[@deal5245]

Actually the funny thing with that is that it's not that hard to play the kick drum with your left foot, especially if it's not something fast, it's the right foot on the hi-hat that is tricky, at least for me

[@lanoctambulephotos]

@@deal5245 for me, too. My right foot would want to follow my left foot when I tried it out.

[@clintawnbomb]

very very cool of you to share Josh, thanks! I have been a 20yr drummer and could only imagine doing what your doing in that video; playing with bad ass musicians, huge crowd and a million dollar setup. Now thats one sweet gig!!

[@matthewjames206]

Ahh, this takes me back. I was lucky to catch a NIN show during this tour; seeing this live was absolutely amazing. But seeing it from this perspective is a real treat. A truly great drummer 🍻

[@cesarlopez-pt2ew]

Unreal, imagine having to perform night after night.

[@dvrkvlley8571]

MASTER at his craft!

[@Epsilon015]

This is awesome, it never stops being so cool being a NIN fan.

[@rationalmuscle]

Sheer awesomeness. Thanks for posting Josh. Your playing is simply amazing.

[@mikeswishbone]

I can't think of a more well rounded musician than Josh.

[@bethwilgis6991]

Trent is a pretty well rounded musician in his own right

[@MrPetercar1]

My favorite drummer since Buddy Rich!

[@diluted8]

That's saying a lot!

[@michaelbrown507]

Simply divine. Thank you.

[@errorik-]

I wish KZbin would like me like this more than one time... cos it deserves more love. Looking forward to more of these Josh!

[@jeanrogerlamoot7632]

Thanks for flashback reminds me of the NIN tour in 91 when I was sitting behind Jeff, nice memories.

[@buickmonte]

Saw Josh jam with DEVO in Houston a few years back,he was setup on the left front stage which was bad ass cuz i could see all of his movements really good.The man is amazing on the drums.

[@adamsideshow2757]

This is an awesome video. Thank you.

[@michaelfournier4908]

He seems so kind! He's also a fantastic father. Josh

[@andrepereira744]

I'm not a drummer but your choices,fills,whatever you name it,are perfect as they always match the flow of the song(all of them),never compromise the beat or/and feeling of it.And all of that with such power!! You Sir sure did like play this songs.Fantastic drummer,amazing musician.Cheers from Portugal

[@elephantasim]

Rad! I could see this being the encore every show, Big up. The drums make this song, true talent even in those disorienting strobes etc...

[@DaddysRUS]

Sweet. Very sweet. Thanks for sharing YO!

[@crushingbelial]

[@araxen]

To be a drummer for NIN you have to be really on top of your shit.

[@gracjanrotke]

For sure!

[@patchrockit]

yea dude, but Ilan is killing it right now

[@matthewjames206]

From Vrenna to Rubin. Some of my favorites 🍻

[@bethwilgis6991]

Josh is definitely on top of his shit, freakin amazing

[@iendacard]

Yes! Man I love this song. The 7/8 part makes it.

[@jenniferwillcut]

I love how Reznor tosses the mic stand at 1:21 like it's a fucking paper towel roll. On the other, more important hand, I love this video for the work done by Josh Freese, . He's awesome for being proud of his work and not giving a fuck if anyone makes fun of him for it. Good for him for having fun.

[@SoulDelSol]

Makes fun of him, what do you mean? Why would anyone do that

[@elindgren11]

One hell of a kit man

[@cptoblvious1487]

I knew I had heard the ending to A Perfect Circle's new Feathers somewhere. Jesus Christ. They, apc, is opening their show with a transparent screen in front, kinda like NiN did a few years back...kinda like maynard did for himself a few years before that...lmao. like the cutest war ever

[@oriondrums2]

Josh and Mike are totally different. They respect each other and neither is better than the other.

[@chrisjerome4183]

Dude is so spot on. How did he learn nin songs in such a short time? Probably cuz he is that good

Genial!

AND EVERYTHING IS ALRIGHT
