Changes

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 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]]''.

All members of NIN were dressed in dark clothing while Bowie intoned and his band were usually dressed in light clothing.
