Watch Nine Inch Nails Perform Classic Tracks & Cover Filter’s “Hey Man, Nice Shot” With Four Ex-Band Members

Industrial metal legends Nine Inch Nails had some surprises in store for those attending the band’s near hometown show in Cuyahoga Falls, OH tonight, September 24th. Following a Q&A at the ‘Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame‘ yesterday that saw several former members of the band sit in (see it here), the group were also joined onstage at the Blossom Music Center by those same veterans of Trent Reznor‘s multi-platinum outfit.

Among those to sit in were former bassist, vocalist, etc. Danny Lohner and ex-drummer, sampler Chris Vrenna. That pair’s sizable contributions to the group’s legacy saw them officially inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame alongside the band’s active lineup back in 2020.

Due to inductee limitations, ex-keyboardist, percussionist, vocalist, etc. Charlie Clouser and former guitarist Richard Patrick (now of Filter) were not able to make it into the hall, despite Reznor‘s best intentions.

That didn’t stop the them from also taking part in tonight’s show however. All four of the aforementioned alumni joined Nine Inch Nails onstage en masse for the tail end of the acclaimed group’s set, beefing up some earlier era tracks. They also launched into a first-time live cover of Filter‘s 1994 hit “Hey Man, Nice Shot” that saw Patrick on lead vocals.

The setlist for the show, which featured opening sets from Nitzer Ebb and Ministry, ran as follows:

“Somewhat Damaged”
“March Of The Pigs”
“Piggy”
