Wrong thread. Meant to be in the NIN one. I have too many threads to manage here.
I'm going to try and turn this into something PJ related. While I would love for PJ to do a really arty, non-commercial and moody album, that's exactly what NINs latest is and it's completely boring.

I love my Sleight Of Hands but I think I love my Lightning Bolts and Fixers more.

Can anyone confirm if that opening ambient guitar piece of the tour video is from "Betterman (live)"?
