Nine Inch Nails ask fans to edit live videos

By | Published on Friday 9 January 2009

Trent Reznor has been alluding to a “gift” on the Nine Inch Nails website for a little while now, and yesterday it finally arrived: 400GB of raw, unedited, high definition live footage, filmed on the band’s recent ‘Lights In The Sky’ tour.

As presents go, it’s pretty impressive. All that remains now is for some more commited fans to edit it into some kind of presentable form so that those of us without futuristic supercomputers can watch some of it.

Announcing the download, Reznor said: “The internet is full of surprises these days. I was contacted by a mysterious, shadowy group of subversives who SOMEHOW managed to film a substantial amount (over 400 GB!) of raw, unedited HD footage from three separate complete shows of our ‘Lights In The Sky’ tour”.

“Security must have been lacking at these shows because the quality of the footage is excellent. If any of you could find a LINK to that footage I’ll bet some enterprising fans could assemble something pretty cool. Oh yeah, you didn’t hear this from me”.
