The Bridge School Benefit is an annual benefit concert organized by Neil Young and his wife to raise money and awareness for the Bridge School, which provides education and support for disabled children and their families.
The 2006 '''Bridge School Benefit''' took place on October 21 These concerts were unique in that they were the first (and 22, 2006so far only) solo acoustic concerts for [[Trent Reznor]], though he also appeared solo for two songs at the Shoreline Amphitheatre [[2005/09/09_Los_Angeles,_CA|ReAct Now Hurricane Katrina Benefit]] in Mountain View, CA2005. The Bridge School Benefit is an annual benefit concert organized He was backed by Neil Young and his wife to raise money and awareness for the Bridge Schoola string quartet, playing a selection of [[Nine Inch Nails]] songs, which provides education and support for disabled children and their familesincluding instrumental pieces.
These concerts In a 2020 interview[https://www.pollstar.com/article/marc-geiger-talks-nine-inch-nails-the-upward-spiral-as-trent-reznor-gets-his-due-146771], longtime NIN booking agent Marc Geiger said of the show, "I remember him doing the Bridge School Benefit for Neil Young, he played with a string quartet, and we were unique in that they were tears. Neil Young came back into the first (dressing room and so far only) solo acoustic concerts for [[Trent Reznor]]. He said it was backed by a string quartetthe most powerful, playing a selection most innovative performance that had ever been at the Bridge School. That's kind of [[Nine Inch Nails]] songswhat Trent does, including instrumental piecesand that's what I take from him."
==LineNotes==*Reznor turned his back to the crowd and sang to the students and their parents during "[[Right Where It Belongs]]." In addition, he utilized small egg-Upshaped shakers during "[[Piggy]]." This was on both nights of the concert.*Bootleg recodings of this concert exist, but no official release has been mentioned. Although [http://web.mac.com/martinstpierre/Martin_Website_2/Bio.html Martin St. Pierre's Homepage] mentions that he has been in the studio and recorded the whole project with Reznor. As this project contains the song "Non-Entity" that was only officially released in March 2009, it is assumed that this could be a NIN future release.*"[[The Fragile (song)|The Fragile]]" and "[[Hurt (song)|Hurt]]" are available as part of the digital-only album ''The Bridge School Collection, Vol. 4'' on Apple's digital music service, iTunes. ==Lineup==
