Photo from [[The NIN Historian]].]]The stage setup design for this tour was somewhat basicdone by ''[[Closure]]'' documentarian Jonathan Rach.[https://www.youtube. com/watch?v=b4-xRCZGDsw] An onstage lighting detail was provided by very tall columns with a single spotlight atop each one. There was a large black rubber draped backdrop with a satin-like finish, and chunks of linen-like fabric hung across the top of the stage structure. There was also a three -piece scrim at the front of the stage that would be pulled away during the first song. The drums and main keyboard were both on large , rustic wooden riserswith pieces of dark fabric hanging off them and what appear to be fake blood stains. An additional keyboard was attached to the drum riser, mounted on a swinging stand fitted with a motorcycle shock absorber. Lohner's keyboard stand had nails and screws welded to the edge of it.[https://www.reddit.com/r/nin/comments/81j2mg/obscure_gear_question/] For this leg of the tour, a fourth keyboard was situated next to the main keyboard riser, on a stand that was designed to look like a ribcage on its lower portion.

This was the first [[NIN ]] tour to feature a projection screen for three slow songs in the middle of the show, in this case "[[Eraser]]"," "[[Hurt (song)|Hurt]]"," and "[[The Downward Spiral (song)|The Downward Spiral]]"." "Eraser" was accompanied by visuals of the desert, "Hurt" by compiled stock footage of various bleak imagery such as war atrocities and decaying animals, and "The Downward Spiral" by a visual of a wall that is made to appear doused in blood during the song's climax.

Also "[[Physical]]"," "[[Burn (song)|Burn]]"," "[[Get Down, Make Love]]"," and "[[Terrible Lie]]" made a few occasional appearances at the second half of the show or at the encore.
