andy-robertson Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 just noticed something in that pick... it's obviously at a show of some sort as if you look at Trent and the two guys on his left, they all have ear monitors around their necks... which makes me think that the sign had been placed there on purpose... interesting...

MetaSouL Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 Hold up... Madison, is that picture exclusive to club members or something? The pic isn't, only if you want to email the band a fucking question and get a response.But it's not on the image list thingy... http://www.nin.com/current/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoungeFly04 Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 It looks like an elevator door, but it's not. It's just propped open. You can see the hinges on the right hand side of the right door. Wrong kind of door. I doubt this really means anything, just thought I would point it out. I also find it odd how the one guitarist is kinda standing separate from the band and is the only one in the doorway under the "Chi Dem" sign. Not to over analyze or anything....

Almost Famous Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 If you have Windows XP, you can Right-Click on the JPEG and choose properties. Click on the Summary tab at top, and then the Advanced button. You can then see the embedded Jpeg properties from the camera and subsequent editing software. You'll see "Date Picture Taken" 2/22/2006 10:31 AM Also these properties also show that the photo was subsequently edited using Photoshop CS2 Macintosh. The text at the bottom was most likely photoshopped into the photo...they probably just typed the date wrong.EDIT: Never mind, now that I actually took the time to look at it, it looks more like an elevator. Still wierd.I thought this too at first, but this door has a window in it with a no smoking sign. I've never seen an elevator with a window in the front before.Well, Trent does use Macintosh's...

G n F n R Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 That's bizarre.What POSSIBLE reason could they have for having that sign up there???Yep, that's the $13 million question.Well to fuck with the heads of gullible Guns N' Roses fans of course!

Carne_asaDA Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 What if the sign was the inspiration to name the album C.D. Keep in mind that it was in Toledo OH was the city where Axl and Slash got into that on stage altercation when Axl cut his hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrixAreForKids Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 Who's the guy in the middle sitting down? Umm.. .that's Trent! He's beefed up now -- and cut his hair. *Wish he'd grow his hair back again*But I don't think he has any plans to do so. During an online chat last week, somebody asked him what the hell was with his hair. And he replied, "Blow me." I forgot that you were a big NIN fan.

LoungeFly04 Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 Yeah Freese is the touring drummer now. The last drummer (I forget who) had heart problems when they were playing live last year and had to leave the tour. Enter Josh Freese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carne_asaDA Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 So Freese plays with NIN now?For the tour.........the original drummer got sick or something. I think Dave Grohl drummed on the album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Matt13 Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 I'm sure Trent Reznor knows about the recent GNR activity, and it's most likely he just placed the sign in that picture to stir people up. I don't really think there is actually a door in Toledo which has a Chinese Democracy sign on it. Agreed.Trent stages all of his pics - nothing is ever random with him. Maybe he posted this one so that he'd get a reaction from fans about the bands touring together? If they did tour together, it would be awesome!!!!I'd shit a solid gold brick if NIN and GNR toured together. Back to the pic... couple of interesting things, and theories about the CD reference:- Didn't GNR play at that arena on the 2002 tour? Perhaps it's an old GNR sign that was just left there as a momento or something above the door.- Someone already said it, but, Photoshop? Illustrator? Could easily be done in either one of those programs.- Trent is always playing mind games... perhaps it's a poke at Robin saying, "Hey dude, I'm out here touring, and what the fuck are you doing with GNR?"- Finally, and I'm surprised nobody's asked about the blonde headed guy, that's Josh Freese! He worked with Axl for a year or so on CD back in the day when they first got started:)And to the dude that said NIN sucks or whatever, you must REALLY love those old Scorpions and Whitesnake records...lol. NIN is one of only two or three bands in the last 15 years that have been original with anything. I utterly respect Trent Reznor, and see very many similarities between him and Axl Rose.

Dead Flower Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 (edited) I think Dave Grohl drummed on the album.Yeah, Grohl played on With Teeth. Didn't know about Freese was touring with them, though. Great drummer. Edited February 24, 2006 by Dead Flower Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
