Nine Inch Nails: "The Frail / The Wretched" live 2000 4K Upscale from "And All That Could Have Been"

[@carllouisyoung]

This is my oldest daughters favorite NIN song and when I took her to see them live for her first NIN concert when this song came on the look of joy on her face was priceless and she said Dad, they are playing my song.. ❤😊 Great memories of this show in Minneapolis...

[@mistastingley]

Haha was just thinking of the first time I heard this song ever the other day! 2008 at the Target Center. Didn’t know all of their songs yet… I do now!

[@AnotherFacelessDigitalNoOne]

I love that she's loves them 💙💙💙

[@iTiOiOiLiiFiAiNi]

She is being raised right! I was at Red Recks for their show with Soundgarden. Tickets have only got more expensive since. Keep your daughter into the good music!

[@carllouisyoung]

@@mistastingleywe were at that show too my friend, that show was Epic Trent was dialed in and when March of the Pigs came on it was like the arena shook...

[@seektruth707]

The Fragile is definitely my favorite NIN album.

[@OGAcidSunsets]

Same. I remember listening for the first time as a kid and being blown away by the vibe. Nothing else like it

[@imcharming4808]

Same

[@kingfish1578]

Over the last few years, it has definitely become mine. It is an amazing album that I really never gave a chance.

[@edgarlugo01]

One piece of art

[@serroche]

Absolutely their best

[@cactusclimber22]

the transition between the frail and the wretched is IMO the best musical segue EVER.

[@nicknitecki2741]

No iPhone screens muddying up the crowd shots. Love it!

[@harrybawlsphd219]

That bugs me so much, especially when in GA. Do what you want in the stands but I don't want a phone blocking my view of the show.

[@CreativePixElation]

First off, love your name. Second off, Iphones, and cellphones do serve a purpose. They are a good distraction for security.

[@aapoetik]

Man, what a line up. I kinda miss Jerome's long-arm swings.

[@kevlarkevinski2212]

I'm 52, and this song means more to me today than ever before.

[@nataliealtemose9191]

Care to tell us more? I never related to the fragile or with teeth albums much until I was in my early 30s and divorced 😂 there's a nin era for each phase in life!

[@irishraider8002]

I'm 50 and I get it

[@residue1830]

23 years later and this is still the best live show I've ever seen. Trent is a musical god and creative genius. Music now just doesn't hit the same way.

[@somefreshbread]

4/26/2000 for me. 17 years old, had nosebleed seats, slipped a $20 to the person checking tickets to get down on the floor between APC and NIN. Best $20 I ever spent.

[@cooperbaird1192]

The clouds will part and the sky cracks open And God himself will reach his fucking arm through, just push you down, just to hold you down… Love that part gives me chills every time

This brings back so many memories. This DVD was how I convinced many of my friends at the time to listen to NIN. It was definitely a turning point in the discman playlist. Thank you for sharing this!

[@NIN_420]

That whole cd the fragile was how I got a shit ton of my buddies to jam NIN great times

[@BlasphometicHermetic]

I had that DVD for years before learning there was hidden content on it! Fragile era was god tier!

[@Bozar069]

In high school we had to pick one of Shakespeare's sonnets to memorize and recite with to instramental music. I used The Frail as the background music for Sonnet 97. It really blew my teacher away because I wasnt a very good at presenting in front of people like that but somehow I killed it.

[@anniesamuel4787]

Ahhh memories...I have the original dvd and love it to bits. I also love back when people had lighters instead of phones.

[@pineapplecircus]

Ugh i despise the lit up phones especially when they put it on the lighter app , fake lighters. Cant smoke at shows anymore, rock n roll you used to count on to be dirty, smokey, taboo

[@anniesamuel4787]

@@pineapplecircus I wonder if you can still bring a lighter without the cigarettes... :D

[@ROBOTWORKMAN]

Release the whole thing in this format and you can take my money again!!! THANK YOU ROB FOR ALL YOU DO!!!!

[@_shutupwesley]

Oh I was thinking exactly the same thing. I am so impressed with this new high reznorlution version. First time it's been "watchable" in years. (To be clear, the resolution has never stopped me watching it. Masterpiece.)

This and Woodstock 94 are the best NIN live performances.

[@BennyBlanco2k9]

NIN with Bowie in 95 would like a word ✌💥

[@grahamleininger1393]

Coachella in I believe 2002 or 3 was MIND BLOWING. I didn't even know NIN's music -AT ALL- and stumbled out of a giant hollow metal percussion instrument I had been stoned as fuck inside of banging on the sides hard af while people played on the outside of it to this song starting. I RAN through the crowd to the front of the crowd and head-banged in absolute joy and awe. AMAZING peak life experience.

[@DireNeeds]

A fine example of how Trent remains relevant in the music industry to this day.

[@aboutthisproduct7674]

The fragile show was one of the most violent and best shows ever!

[@pewpewpro3309]

This tour was peak Robin Finck. Great guitarist with one if a kind style.

[@trauma__queen]

And a handsome man with cool hair 😅

[@Loki-sk7bi]

He was incredible in GNR as well.

[@philippgrunert8776]

I just wish I could have seen them live around the time the fragile was released... Definitely a hypothetical time travel destination.

[@kevw25]

He is so fucking good live its unbelievable

[@JohnMalone-ni3ss]

Listen to this once a day minimum. One of the most mind blowing performances ever. They just fu-kin killed it!!!!!!

[@vectorcuenta8760]

Probably one of my favorite live version of the tour

[@omarz3730]

I was at this Tour... Compaq Center Houston, Tx. In the year of our Lord 2000. I was 19 years old. It was fkn amazing 🖤

[@jaderbarros4006]

Would be really cool if one day Trent let you remaster and release a complete collection of these old perfomances in UHD. Hope you guys are still friends after all. You're also part of NIN. Thanks a lot for this treat.

[@somefreshbread]

God, I love how these turned out. It's subtle and natural and not goofy or weird or full of obscene halos (lul) like upscales can be sometimes.

[@nataliealtemose9191]

Halos, lmfao 😂❤

[@henieto]

The best memories. thanks a lot Rob. The best lineup, the best lights and screens, the best concept art between song transitions, the best tour, the best DVD by far. The best director.

[@serroche]

This show and 'Beside You In Time' are my favourite NIN shows ever. The best tracklist ever assembled, amazing visuals. And the best is that they were recorded in a time when people still used our lighters in certain moments of the show, creating a bond with the band and the venue. Nowadays people suck major balls with the bloody phones, not enjoying the show whatsoever.

[@V0lk]

Now I just want the whole film in 4k.

[@rokaanalzeer7148]

Wow!! This looks like it was shot yesterday! I love it! Also props on keeping the 4x3. Most remasters will ditch it to go widescreen but I like the whole picture is there. It’s awesome!

[@Superrobil]

NO, because lighters were used to add to the atmosphere ;-)

[@SniperRailgun]

Converted many of my friends to the joys of NIN with this DVD

[@clarkdale2394]

Being a huge fan of NIN it's great to see this gem "remastered" again. I can't forget a high school trip on the bus and listening to on the radio about this live dvd which I was craving for it for so long since Closure wasn't available "legaly". Very uderrated DVD but it changed my life forever. I also used Topaz for remastering "old" shows and this was in my list for remastering by myself af 8k/60fps to be played on modern displays. It is still so fuckingly and shockingly filmed and mounted that in my opinion is the best NIN show ever profesionally recorded.

[@petersendscheid9080]

Still epic.

[@normal1285]

It was and it is an amazing DVD, remember watching this over and over, go for the full dvd in 4K, please!

[@logandoyle3222]

Thank you for this, Rob. I wasn't old enough to have gone to the concert, so its amazing to experience part of it.

[@WHR17]

Such an amazing tour, caught back to back shows in Houston and Dallas. Got a broken key from one of the keyboards Trent smashed, still one of my most prized possessions. This remaster looks and sounds fantastic!!!

It didn't turn out the way you wanted it to It didn't turn out the way you wanted it to, did it? Now you know This is what it feels like Now you know This is what it feels like The clouds will part and the sky cracks open And God himself will reach his fucking arm through Just to push you down, just to hold you down Stuck in this hole with the shit and the piss And it's hard to believe it could come down to this Back at the beginning Sinking, spinning And in the end we still pretend The time we spend, not knowing when You're finally free and you could be But it didn't turn out the way you wanted it to It didn't turn out quite the way that you wanted it Now you know This is what it feels like Now you know This is what it feels like Now you know (now you know) This is what it feels like (this is what it feels like) Now you know (now you know) This is what it feels like (you can try to stop it but it keeps on coming) (You can try to stop it but)

[@NytronX]

Man, what a huge mistake it was to shoot these concerts in the 1990s on "cutting edge digital 480p cameras". Just like Pink Floyd PULSE, we will never see this in HD. Meanwhile, stuff shot on film can be converted to 4k or even 12k depending on the film, films shot even in the 1960s.

This comment is for Bobby S. First time, long time. I’ve surely seen this DVD more times than any other media ever released. This actually made me feel something in my brain during the first few seconds. Not emotional. Like literally some shit popped. It’s happened before; and it’s often during epiphanies…or does it unclog some plaque up there and free up some yummy neuro juice that leads me to believe I’ve had a profound experience. Alas Mr. S; even working with 75 inches of high end budget level Tcl 6 series glory; this looks incredible. I don’t know how stuff works. I think their is a podcast called how stuff works; but I don’t believe it’s the answer. Apparently you can make old stuff better without faking it. I thought studios really just wanted to sell everything again and improvements would be rather BS. That is likely the case sometimes; but not with you guy behind the guy doing stuff. I enjoyed this a lot. I swear something did pop up there. Doesn’t hurt; perhaps the fifth time it’s happened over several years. That’s pretty rad that even a Chinese TV couldn’t prevent you from giving me another mini stroke. You rule. If I lose sensation somewhere then YOU may be the giver of what ultimately leads to a diagnosis…..that would make you my guardian Angel or something. Is that what guardian angels do? I talked my way out of the Methodism thing by age 8. No bother. If you’re not Rob: Hey. How’s it going? Stop reading now, cool, you too. Bobby can you make me old homemade porn 4K? Those were better days…she’s super pretty and would totally consent. Upscaling would quiet the mind for who knows how long. I should have said, yes. True story.
