JEORDIE WHITE | BASE TENDENCIES

First San Paulo and Rio de Janeiro and now there is more good news for our neighbors in South America - Nine Inch Nails have confirmed that they will be announcing more South American dates "very soon". Keep checking nin.com and/or this site for further updates.
The Press page has been updated with a blast from the past - an August 1997 interview with Kerrang magazine where Jeordie, more commonly known as Twiggy Ramirez back then, talks about his record collection. Click here to go directly to the article. Thanks to 2freakettes at encirclepaedia.net for sending this in.
NIN have updated their Performance page with a new U.S. date at the Wachovia Arena in Wilkes-Barre, PA on 11.6.05. The November appearances at Brazil's Claro Festival have also been confirmed. The festival takes place on 11.26.05 in Sao Paulo and on 11.27.05 in Rio de Janeiro. Ticket information is not yet available for any of the newly confirmed shows.
Keep in mind that nothing is confirmed yet, but there is growing talk suggesting that not only will Nine Inch Nails be returning to Europe after the first of the year, but that another round of dates in the U.S., Australia and New Zealand might be on tap as well. Trent himself has allegedly spoken of such dates at recent meet and greets that have taken place. I will let everyone know when/if new information comes to light on any of this.
According to this article posted by The NIN Hotline, Nine Inch Nails will perform at the Claro Que E Rock Festival in Brazil in late November. The festival takes place in Sao Paulo on November 26th and in Rio de Janeiro on November 27th. There is no official update on NIN's performance page as yet.
Some of you have expressed concern that Jeordie would cut off his hair based on the fact that Trent cut off his. However, a new photo from Japan's Summersonic Festival just added to the NIN Live gallery shows substantial evidence that all of Jeordie's hairs remain intact. Is that a collective sigh of relief I'm hearing?
[11:40 a.m.] The following photo galleries have been updated: APC Live (5 photos; thanks to Mrs.Goony), NIN Live (1 photo)and NIN Promo (2 photos).
Following up on last week's announcement of NIN ticket auctions, many of which start today, this is the link to the page which will give you access to the auctions where you will be able to place bids on either general admission or reserved tickets. All of the information you need to participate in these auctions can be found on this page, including the schedule of auction start dates for shows not yet up for auction today. Good luck to all who bid!
If you haven't already seen this over at nin.com, starting on Monday, August 8th, Nine Inch Nails will join forces with Ticketmaster, initiating a series of online auctions where fans can bid on premium tickets to shows on the band's upcoming arena tour of the U.S. and Canada. This is part of a two-tiered effort to thrwart scalpers, the first part being the recent launch of the NIN fan club, The Spiral. NIN will donate a portion of the proceeds made from these auctions (which otherwise would have made some scalper's wallet fatter) to The Innocence Project, a non-profit organization which provides post-conviction DNA testing to yield conclusive proof of innocence.

More itinerary changes are being reported this morning on nin.com's tour page. First, the November 11th Albany, NY show at the Pepsi Arena has mysteriously been replaced with a "TBA". Guess they won't be going to Albany after all. The second change is that they have now added the November 14th Winnepeg show at the MTS Centre, thus "officially" confirming the show, which a lot of people already knew about anyway. Tickets for this one go on sale this Saturday, August 6th, at 10:00 a.m. through Ticketmaster. On the subject of ticket sales, there is a discrepancy regarding the Toronto show, with nin.com showing the date to be Saturday, August 6th, while Ticketmaster's website shows the onsale date as being a day earlier. I would advise checking with Ticketmaster to confirm the onsale information.
