90,000 fans! Which festival were they at!  

Im guessing they didnt realise the statement about over 80,000 people being there was the combined total over the 2 days.  As it was around 35k on the saturday, and 45k on the sunday.

Interesting to see that Trent could be playing a whole album on certain nights of the final leg of dates, I wish I was seeing these last shows  

NIN opened their ‘Wave Goodbye’ tour (reportedly the final 11 dates that NIN will ever play) in New York’s Bowery Ballroom, but at the second date at NY’s Webster Hall, NIN played their 1994 landmark album, ‘The Downward Spiral’, in its entirety.

The band’s setlist at Webster Hall ran:

1. “Mr. Self Destruct”
2. “Piggy”
3. “Heresy”
4. “March of the Pigs”
5. “Closer”
6. “Ruiner”
7. “The Becoming”
8. “I Do Not Want This”
9. “Big Man with a Gun”
10. “A Warm Place”
11. “Eraser”
12. “Reptile”
13. “The Downward Spiral”
14. “Hurt”
15. “1,000,000″
16. “Terrible Lie”
17. “Metal”
18. “Lights In the Sky”
19. “Burn”
20. “Gave Up”
21. “Suck”
22. “Physical”
23. “The Hand That Feeds”
24. “Head Like A Hole”

Damn, that set looks fantastic, I really wish I could catch the final US shows myself, too

Was that the setlist at Sonisphere? Bloody hell. We got a 'best of' at T in the Park, they were amazing. Hopefuly they'll be back soon.

James Hetfield, fully rehabbed and ready, looks in the peak of fitness as he asks how many people have seen the band before. When nearly 80% of 90,000 hands go up, he replies, "You're sh*tting me. And you came back for more?"

Says 90000 watched metalica! Yar right!!

Besides, taking your logic, A lot of the saturday crowd (35K) would have made up the sunday crowd (45k). So that stat is WAY too high (even over the weekend) as it is counting the weekend ticket holder twice.

Nice try though!    

90,000 people!
