Quotes

After failing to set up Trent Reznor's computer/keyboard:

"We had something cool for you too. I guess that's what you get for making music with computers. Let's see what
else we can do."

In the intro to "Only," Reznor's guitar wasn't working properly:

"We're gonna play a version called the 'Broken Guitar Remix.' We're gonna just keep playing 'till my fucking guitar
starts to work. Could be a couple seconds, could be a couple hours… looks like it's gonna be a couple hours."

Then, while singing "Hurt," hecklers were interrupting the song. Reznor then said:

"You know what, what did you say? I'm just wondering, am I suppose to pretend I can't hear some asshole yelling at
me through the whole song? You got something to say? Huh? You're unbelievable!"
