Yes, I listened to Trent’s “interview” on that whole episode. Very moving and touching in all honesty.
I was explaining to one of the little DoodleBobs that Trent Reznor is the real deal and Marilyn Manson is a joke. That was before the latest brouhaha.
I know someone who saw NIN live. They said the band simply went from song to song. No banter, no dialogue. Relentless. It wasn’t until the end of the final song that Trent acknowledged the audience - he simply said “thank you” then walked off stage. Now THAT is bitchin’.
Reznor is brilliant and deep.
Manson is a worthless freak *but* he did “Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This) like it was meant to be done.
Best thing I ever saw was Alice ambling onstage while manson was singing that and the crowd went berserk, confusing manson, no end.
And then Alice ate his lunch and finished the song.
