→Stage Set-Up: That David Carson footage was never used for anything.
A notable piece of gear was Clouser's custom keyboard stand, similar to the custom stand used by Reznor on the [[Self Destruct Touring Cycle]], which could rotate in different directions and was fitted with a motorcycle shock absorber. The rough design was done by Clouser, and the stand was built by metal fabricator Tim Ralston, who specializes in movie props.[https://www.reddit.com/r/nin/comments/81j2mg/obscure_gear_question/] Reznor also had several custom guitars during this tour, with imagery from the album artwork on the bodies.
There was also a projection scrim in front of the band for three songs in the middle of the show, "[[La Mer]]," "[[The Great Below]]," and "[[The Way Out Is Through]]". "La Mer" was accompanied by footage of the ocean, "The Great Below" by microscopic footage of things such as cell division or a heart valve in action, and "The Way Out Is Through" by reflected water ripples that would distort and pixelate with the music. In April 2018 a tape with the ocean footage made by David Carson was bought on ebay and shared on [[Echoing The Sound|ETS]], and can be watched [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEzyMluf-q4 here].
