| has gloss | eng: Self-Destruct Tour was a tour in support of the American band Nine Inch Nails The Downward Spiral album, which took place in 1994. The tour took place over most of the North America and Europe, playing in various medium-sized ballrooms across the country. This was Nine Inch Nailss first tour since the early 1990s tours for Pretty Hate Machine. During this time, Nine Inch Nails's music became angrier and more aggressive with releases like Broken and The Downward Spiral, which led to the concerts being often very aggressive and personal, with band members often injuring themselves by accident. The tour consisted of four legs, beginning with a basic tour of North America before going to Europe, then back to North America before ending the tour with Woodstock 94. The stage set-up consisted of grungy curtains which would pulled down and up for visuals which might be played during songs (such as Hurt), or pulled up for live performances of more aggressive songs. The back of the stage was littered with darker and standing lights, with very little actual lights. |
