A fantastic recording, there is a little bit of phasing here and there, but its really not noticeable. A very very clean recording. Its good to have so many recordings of the last show.

Good recording. At some points it does tend to overload on the bass or clip with the crowd noice. But this recording is very good.

Notes
This is a silver pressed bootleg. It was condensed to one CD so most of the show is missing. The bootleg is missing "Eraser", "The Downward Spiral" for sure because those were standard songs for a show. This recording could also be missing "Dead Souls" and "Something I Can Never Have" as well which were main songs that were played during the encore with "Closer."

- Added: 2014-02-13
Notes
This is on the silver cd, "Hellraisers." The first 13 tracks were from this date. Songs missing from the performance are Reptile, and Gave Up. The last two tracks of this silver cd is from 12/09/1994 New York. The Columbus show did not have an encore. This was due to Trent finding out during the encore break that his dog had passed away at the hotel that evening. House lights came on ~10 minutes after "Head Like A Hole" ended. (Thanks to Brent U. for this info).

Notes
Misses Gave Up, Happiness in Slavery, and Something I Can Never Have. They were probably recorded, but to keep this Silver to one disc they probably did not put those tracks on the CD.

Notes
A silver CD release. Sometimes this is mistaken for one of the Atlanta shows from late July (misprint on the back sleeve), but this is not true. It's a pretty long story and was investigated by TheBang thoroughly. When you download the recording, the text file has all the reasons why it is from the NOLA show and not Atlanta. Also, new infromation from the taper has confirmed that this is the NOLA show. One of the best recordings of this early tour.

Another PERFECT audience recording. Pinion fades in at the beginning. This recording has been highlighted on RITC's NIN Recording of the Week.

Notes
This recording comes from the pressed CD called "Crossed Nails". It is a great recording and one of the best sounding from the Downward Spiral tour. This recording has been highlighted on RITC's NIN Recording of the Week. This recording is mislabeled! Its said to be the 04/21/1994 Portland show but it is indeed not! This news article from the Oregonian from 4/23/1994 states that Trent was not mad at the crowd at all this night. But in this recording you hear him yell about how the fans were in their seats during "Sin". The article states that in Portland, Trent Reznor talks about how lame the 04/20/1994 crowd is. In this recording you don't hear it because this is the 04/20 recording! Thanks to Chris R. for digging this out. This is taped by Ed Phernetton, the same person who did the 04/19/1994 show. We've later come to find out that Ed purposely mislabeled this recording for certain reasons with the venue. Would love to get a DAT clone of this recording if anyone has a copy.

Notes
This is the same recording as below on the Silver CD, but this is the superior source coming from a DAT clone of the DAT master. Sound is amazing. This recording was transferred at 16/48, same rate as the master tape for archival purposes.
