==Lighting==
The lighting for the summer tour was a change from the winter and spring "teeth" panels. A grid of Versa RAY pixel lights arranged in the form of a cage hung over the stage, occasionally moving down and up to provide display visuals, through which the band may be seen. Large Seven large, vertical , immobile rectangular panels were in the background akin to those the three mobile ones from [[Fragility 2.0]], except there were more than 3 and they were not mobile. Combined, this lightshow induces an amphitheater sized disco.
==Setlist==
Signature aspects of this tour, omitting the usual suspects:
* "'''"[[Somewhat Damaged]]:"'''" - With the house lights still on, [[Trent Reznor|Trent]] would suddenly appear near the cage and begin the first verse right away. This caught fans unsuspected as the band had usually begun shows with a pre-recorded track such as "[[Pinion]]" to build up the hype.[[Image:BYIT14.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Trent making innuendos Reznor in front of the light panels during "[[Closer]].".]]* "'''"[[Closer]]"'''" with '''"[[The Only Time]]" ''' breakdown - Trent : Reznor stood in front of the center panel whilst it glowed red, reminiscent of [[Fragility 2.0]]. This produced an illusionary silhouette effect, especially for the audience members far away from the stage; it looked like the lights were moving instead of the completely contrasted dark figure that was Trent.* "'''"[[Help Me I Am In Hell]]:"'''" - Cage was down for "lava lamp" -esque visuals.* "'''"[[Non-Entity]]:"'''" - The previous song hyped the crowd up for "[[Happiness In Slavery (song)|Happiness In Slavery]],", but instead of havoc-wreaking machinery they heard this instead. The upside is the eerie "fading away" shadows tentacle effect on the cage during the chorus.* "'''"[[Only (song)|Only]]:"'''" - Pixel-y static visuals zooming in and out due to the contrast twixt cage and panels.* "'''"[[La Mer]]:"'''" - Trent Reznor begins by improvising on the keyboard a bit, and then lead into the beginning of "La Mer.". [[Aaron North|Aaron]] joins in, and right when the build up is supposed to occur, the band directly cuts to "[[Into The Void (song)|Into The Void]],", a song with the same theme. The panels glow pink for "Into the Void.".* "'''"[[The Big Come Down]]:"'''"Arguably the live perfrmance of this song is far more aggressive and energetic than the album version.* "'''"[[Head Like A Hole (song)|Head Like A Hole]]"'''" - energetic song always used to end the show. As the song faded out, the cage was lowered, this time with the "NIN" logo appearing on it. ===Set format===The following is a setlist breakdown for this leg of touring, '''a''','''b''' or '''c''' indicate that these songs are played instead of each other, or occasionally together.{|| '''1.''' | "Somewhat Damaged"| (31/31)|-| '''2.''' | "[[You Know What You Are?]]"| (31/31)|-| '''3.''' | "[[Sin (song)|Sin]]"| (22/31)|-| '''4.''' | "[[Terrible Lie]]"| (31/31)|-| '''5.''' | "[[March Of The Pigs (song)|March Of The Pigs]]"| (31/31)|-| '''6-a.''' | "[[Something I Can Never Have]]"| (23/31)|-| '''6-b.''' | "[[The Frail]]" and "[[The Wretched]]"| (8/31)|-| '''7.''' | "Closer"| (31/31)|-| '''8.''' | "[[Burn (song)|Burn]]"| (31/31)|-| '''9.''' | "[[Gave Up]]"| (31/31)|-| '''10.''' | "Help Me I Am In Hell"| (31/31)|-| '''11-a.''' | "Non-Entity"| (29/31)|-| '''11-b.'''| "[[Even Deeper]]"| (7/31)|-| '''12.''' | "Only"| (31/31)|-| '''13.''' | "[[Wish (song)|Wish]]"| (31/31)|-| '''14.''' | "La Mer"| (31/31)|-| '''15.''' | "Into The Void"| (31/31)|-| '''16-a.''' | "The Big Come Down"| (27/31)|-| '''16-b.''' | "[[Reptile]]"| (4/31)|-| '''17-a.''' | "[[Suck]]"| (28/31)|-| '''17-b.''' | "[[Dead Souls]]"| (10/31)|-| '''18-a.''' | "[[Get Down, Make Love]]"| (15/31)|-| '''18-b.''' | "[[Down In It (song)|Down In It]]"| (21/31)|-| '''18-c.''' | "[[Starfuckers, Inc.
