Lindsey's guitar pic?
 
Does anyone know anything about Lindsey's pick? I got one in Portland the other night, I believe he just used one on Treason, but it has NIN on one side and a no pick sign on the back- but I wondered why he'd have nine inch nails on it? Some connection I know someone will know- Any info would be fun- Thanks:confused:thumbsup:

NIN? Odd. Maybe some of the guys on his road crew supplied them...they probably tour for other bands. Interesting...

2 years ago, my daughter had gotten a NIN pick from one of the shows, I didn't think it was one of Lindseys though, but I also got one, it had Neals sig on it, I forgot what was on the other side, so idk????:shrug:

Yup, that's what he had for the last tour as well (he threw it to me after playing Under the Skin). I was so excited to have gotten the pic I didn't notice the NIN until I was at home.

I keep trying to call into Rockline and emailed his Q&A about it, but have never been able to get through or get an answer.

I thought it was pretty cool because I'm a fan of Trent Reznor as well (just saw NIN in concert, good times indeed).

Yeah...one of the crew guys was out with NIN at one point and had a bunch with him...and Lindsey got hold of one and likes it because it is thin. So he uses them.

Yeah, last tour they were also Nine Inch Nail pics. I got one at the House of Blues in Anaheim. Might have gotten a discount on them.

Ah, thank you! It is very thin- sort of see thru as well

dougb 09-18-2008 06:39 PM

the one he threw at portland and I dove for has his initials on it with the no pick sign.

WildHeart69 09-18-2008 07:41 PM

I got one at the Borgata last year and it was a NIN one as well...same as described...( he actually tried to toss one and someone else got it so he came right over to the end of the stage to hand another to me)

Someone's theory was that Ray Lindsey is a tech for NIN and had them as extras becuase they werent happy with them or something... I dont know how accurate that is though

Hm- You must be talking about last year? I was at the GOS show, he just threw one down on the stage, nothing out to the audience. I am curious if the no pick sign is just something Lindsey added or what?Is it on the NIN ones they used?

dougb 09-18-2008 07:59 PM

no I was front row he played under the skin and threw it. it was before you snuck to second row.

michelej1 09-18-2008 08:04 PM

Yes, even though he uses a pick several times throughout the show, he consistently throws it after UTS.

He kills me, because in talking about the "whore" part in Bel Air Rain he still had to mention that FM tried to make him use a pick in 1975. If Mick and John had taken him in a back room and molested him, it could not have scarred him more than them asking him to use a pick did.

Ah! That's awesome! What a fun time huh? I don't think I was very "sneaky" haha- but I couldn't let the opportunity to go to waste. I wonder and wonder why the second row was empty? Any theories? I was hoping the USC marching band was gonna show! haha:blob2:

thanks

Dosen't Ray Lindsey also do Guitar Tech for Nine Inch Nails.
I thought that was why he had them.

Apparently, most of the first three rows were sold to ticket brokers who simply cut their losses rather than sell them for below face value. I sat on the aisle in row... G? I forget.

Glad you had fun!
