"I had been listening to nine inch nails regularly for about a year prior to the first show I attended. I knew about them since I was a kid courtesy of my mom, but never fully listened to them until my boyfriend wanted to give them a try. We both listened to the albums in chronological order, and have never looked back since. Day of the first show in Phoenix, I was blown away. I was beyond starstruck and couldn't believe the visuals and the music altogether. I didn't want the night to end at all. When the second round of touring was announced, I hopped on it right away. This second show in Glendale was more amazing than the first. The crowd was more hyped and the energy was immense. The experience was unforgettable. I will always love the community for being so welcoming and supportive of each other, and NIN will always have a special place in my heart moving forward in life."

"Somehow, Reznor's music has always been more or so like an extension of my own experiences. From Head Like a Hole, to As Alive As You Need Me To Be, somehow I see part of myself in all of it. Just like Still is Reznor's favorite record, it's also mine, I feel a lot of the emotion he put into it. Never thought I'd be at one of their concerts, but as soon as I heard they probably won't tour again after this, in my heart, I knew I needed to go. I have never thrashed or belted out his lyrics anymore than I already have at home in the shower (most of the time.) Even though I may never get to see Reznor or be in the same building with him again, I know that whatever comes next, I'll push through. However bleak the future can get or be."

"Fell in love with NIN as a teenager, and was fortunate enough to attend 4 shows this tour with friends both old and new! Saw the show from a different place in the crowd each time and it blew me away every night"

“I’ve always wanted to see Nine Inch Nails, but nothing really lined up until the Peel It Back Tour. Trent Reznor is a massive inspiration to me in all aspects and his music—whether it’s NIN, How to Destroy Angels, or film scores—have always stuck with me and helped introduced me to other media that has also molded me. While Pretty Hate Machine was the first album I listened to, The Downward Spiral and The Fragile were there during uncertain times of my life when I was still figuring out what I wanted to do while also combating terrible depressive ruts. Despite the heavy material in these works, it helped me feel less alone and offered some kind of solace and comfort with every listen. Going to the first Phoenix show was life changing. I sang and yelled and danced through every song, I cheered as soon as David Bowie was talked about and 'I’m Afraid of Americans' is played, and I sobbed when the venues lights turned on as 'Laura Palmer’s Theme' echoed throughout (this especially got to me as I was still mourning David Lynch’s passing). Glendale was just as stellar and riveting, and I hope I can see them again sometime soon. NIN is truly one of my favorite bands of all time and I don’t know where I’d be without them.”
