In 1995, [[Nine Inch Nails]] co-headlined the Outside ''Dissonance'' tour with [[David Bowie]]. The tour is part of the [[Self Destruct Touring Cycle]]. Although NIN were supposedly more popular than Bowie at the time, Trent Reznor felt uncomfortable having his idol open for him. So NIN played after the opening band [[Prick]] and before Bowie. Their set was named '''Dissonance'''.
After NIN played a re-worked instrumental version of "[[Eraser]]", Bowie's band gradually came onto the stage to play 5 five songs with NIN. Reznor and Bowie sang duet throughout this dual mini-set, with Reznor leaving the stage at the end for Bowie's band to perform their own set. NIN and Bowie's individual set lengths ended up being roughly equal. The joint set ended with new version of "[[Hurt (song)|Hurt]]", performed mostly by Bowie's band and sang by Bowie and Reznor. A live recording of this version appears on ''[[Closure]]''.
The concept was innovative for its time, and received low sales and mixed reviews. Generalizing here, the young crowd did not stay for Bowie's set despite the segue, and the old crowd did not get industrial. Nowadays, these shows are treasured by the [[bootlegs|bootleg ]] community.
== NIN set Line-Up==# *'''[[Terrible LieCharlie Clouser]]''' – pre-emptively begun without warning (no pre-recorded build-up such as [[Pinion]]): Keyboards, programming, additional drums, backing vocals# *'''[[March of the PigsRobin Finck]]''': Guitar, keyboards, backing vocals# *'''[[The BecomingDanny Lohner]]''': Bass, guitar, keyboards, backing vocals# *'''[[SanctifiedTrent Reznor]]'''# '''[[Piggy (Nothing Can Stop Me Now)]]''' – the remix# '''[[Burn]]'''# '''[[Closer To God (song)|Closer To God]]''' – the remix: Vocals, guitar, bass, keyboards, which probably confused the audience# '''[[Wish]]'''saxophone# *'''[[Gave UpChris Vrenna]]'''# '''[[Eraser]]''' – re-worked instrumental: Drums
== NIN and Bowie set Stage Set-Up==<ol start="11"><li> The stage design for this tour was done by ''Closure'Subterraneans''' – over top the synthesizers, Trent performed a saxophone solo whilst Bowie intoned the first verse of "Scary Monsters" <documentarian Jonathan Rach.[https:/li><li> '''Scary Monsters''' </li><li> '''[[Reptile]]''' </li><li> '''Hallo Spaceboy''' <www.youtube.com/li><li> '''[[Hurtwatch?v=b4-xRCZGDsw]]''' – The overall look was very clean and stripped-down, contrasted with the previous legs of the Self Destruct Touring Cycle. There was a unique synth part; a performance simple drapery style cloth backdrop that could be raised and lowered, hanging clusters of PAR can lights that shone down directly on individual band members, and keyboards on futuristic-looking metal stands. There were two sets of drums, allowing Vrenna and Clouser to play at the same time, when needed. All members of this version is included NIN were dressed in dark clothing while Bowie and his band were usually dressed in [[Closure]] </li></ol>light clothing. Background projections were used during the portion of the set where NIN and Bowie were performing together.
== Trivia Typical setlist==* Later, Bowie would attempt a similar tour in Europe with Morrissey. This also received mixed reception from the public, with Morrissey dropping out after refusing to segue his set into #"[[Terrible Lie]]"#"[[March Of The Pigs (song)|March Of The Pigs]]"#"[[The Becoming]]"#"[[Sanctified]]"#"[[Piggy]]" (Nothing Can Stop Me Now)#"[[Burn (song)|Burn]]"#"[[Closer]]" or "Closer To God"#"[[Wish (song)|Wish]]"#"[[Gave Up]]"#"[[Down In It (song)|Down In It]]"#"Eraser" (Instrumental version)<br>'''Nine Inch Nails and David Bowie:'''s as Reznor had done.#"[[Subterraneans]]"#"[[Scary Monsters]]"#"[[Reptile]]"#"[[Hallo Spaceboy]]"#"Hurt"
== YouTube videos Scrapped concert film ==Low quality videos A professionally produced concert film of both NIN and Bowie was planned by Bowie's label, Virgin Records. However, when EMI Group (Virgin's parent company) ran into financial troubles, the project was scrapped. The film's editor, David Williams, claimed that the production company was probably never paid by the label and the footage was lost forever.[https://www.theninhotline.com/news/permalink/1288209177] Fortunately, Williams posted about 43 minutes of rough cut footage from the film to his Vimeo channel, featuring both NIN and Bowie. It was filmed at the [[1995/10/18_Phoenix,_AZ|Desert Sky Pavilion]]. ==Dates=={|border="1" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0"|- style="background-color:#e8e8e8"!width="250"|Date/Location!Venue|-|[[1995/09/11 Hartford, CT]]|Meadows Music Theatre (rehearsal, no audience)|-|[[1995/09/12 Hartford, CT]]|Meadows Music Theatre (rehearsal, small radio contest winner audience)|-|[[1995/09/13 Hartford, CT]]|Meadows Music Theatre (rehearsal, no audience)|-|[[1995/09/14 Hartford, CT]]|Meadows Music Theatre|-|[[1995/09/16 Mansfield, MA]]|Great Woods Arts Center|-|[[1995/09/17 show:Hershey, PA]]|Hershey Park Stadium|-|[[1995/09/20 Toronto, ON]]|Skydome|-|[[1995/09/22 Camden, NJ]]|Blockbuster Sony Music Center|-|[[1995/09/23 Burgettstown, PA]]|Coca-Cola Star Lake Amphitheatre|-|[[1995/09/27 East Rutherford, NJ]]|Brendan Byrne Arena|-|[[1995/09/28 East Rutherford, NJ]]|Brendan Byrne Arena|- |[[1995/09/30 Cleveland, OH]]|Blossom Music Center|-|[[1995/10/01 Tinley Park, IL]]|New World Music Theatre|-|[[1995/10/03 Detroit, MI]]|Palace of Auburn Hills|-# |[[http:1995/10/www.youtube.com04 Columbus, OH]]|Polaris Amphitheatre|-|[[1995/10/watch?v=KOYkGw24Llo Eraser06 Washington, DC]]# |Nissan Pavillion|-|[[http:1995/10/07 Raleigh, NC]]|Hardee's Walnut Creek Amphitheatre|-|[[1995/www.youtube.com10/watch?v=zg0yLIsNa_w Subterraneans09 Atlanta, GA]]# |Coca-Cola Lakewood Amphitheatre|-|[[http:1995/10/www11 St.youtube.comLouis, MO]]|Riverport Amphitheater|-|[[1995/10/watch?v=D13 Dallas, TX]]|Coca-Cola Starplex Amphitheatre|-FmjzFjtuo Scary Monsters|[[1995/10/14 Austin, TX]]|Southpark Meadows|-# |[[http:1995/10/www.youtube.com16 Denver, CO]]|McNichols Arena|-|[[1995/10/watch?v=zXy3CSTmHws Reptile (part 1)18 Phoenix, AZ]]# |Desert Sky Pavillion|-|[[http:1995/10/www.youtube.com19 Las Vegas, NV]]|Thomas & Mack Center|-|[[1995/10/watch?v=X1p4tsWEuOU Reptile (part 2)21 Mountain View, CA]]# |Shoreline Amphitheatre|-|[[http:1995/10/www.youtube.com24 Tacoma, WA]]|Tacoma Dome|-|[[1995/10/watch?v=PyFLTRfhNlw Hallo Spaceboy25 Portland, OR]]# |Rose Garden Arena|-|[[http:1995/10/www.youtube.com28 Los Angeles, CA]] |Great Western Forum|-|[[1995/10/watch?v=LtfsgGFSR_I Hurt29 Los Angeles, CA]]|Great Western Forum|}
