  • I'm sure that Brett and Rob are on ebay pretending to be legitimate bidders just to drive up the price; it's not hard to do. That would be just like Trent--a final "f--k you" to his fans.

    • His gears top-shelf so there are legitimate offers from bands looking to save some money. What a memorabilia collector/seller thinks NIN stuff is worth on the market.

    • ...is what I really want to know. Bidding will go higher than it should because of fanboys/girls but a legitimate assessment of worth would be nice to know.

  • So I guess NIN are over if they're selling off all of their stuff.

    • He's making sure everyone understands that NIN will not be touring anymore, ever. He'll just hire for stuff broadcast over the Internet is what I'm thinking. PPV is what will happen eventually to make money.

  • lmao Like he trusts that Idiot to box up anything of value. Brett's doing that. lmao MQ is locked in the closet painting her hooves.

    • He'd trust her to box it up if he were standing over her bossing her around. Perhaps this is why she hasn't been seen, he's got her earning her keep and allows a few hours each day so she can go on MS to see who's ignoring her.

  • TR's not gonna "off" himself. He's too much of a wimp. Of course, he's trying to make money. If he wasn't, he'd be saying the proceeds are going to charity. Probably a clearing of junk as well. Storage costs a lot.

    • Uh, yeah, did you see how much some of these people are bidding? Thousands and it's only day two of the bid. Who the f--k has a few grand just laying around to throw away on a used guitar?

    • Other musicians would bid on his stuff because he's known to have top of the line of anything worthwhile that's out there. I'm sure there's some collectors thrown in.

  • Saw a blurb that TR is having an EBAY sale of his NIN gear. A newlywed categorizing s*** for sale instead of hanging with the wife...interesting. Now, is this a clearing out the past, an attempt to make money, or is he being all depressed and "now I...

    • There are plenty of great bands still around. I loved NIN but like lots of other bands-like AC/DC, Maiden,Korn, Def Leppard, to name a few. And they are much nicer to their fans.

  • It was always funny to me how sure Trent was about "getting married." He had this planned out. Nobody is that sure in a new relationship. MQ and Trent had a false iness about it, and that's how I knew it was fake. No woman talks about golddigging...

    • that soon, and no man like Trent who has intimacy, emotional, and fidelity issues is that sure that early about marrying a woman for real. His trust issues don't allow it. Just a fail all around. The best revenge is him looking like an Idiot to...

  • I never believed he was on steroids. That's just my opinion though. I think he started working out constantly and changed some of his bad habits.

    • He looks like an Idiot, and can't see it. Karma is amazing! It's a long time coming too. I love it, and I'm glad I've gotten to see self righteous Trent looking like the Jack*** he always said everybody else was.

  • I'm still wondering about the steroids. If they do bulk up cause major depression, rage, anger and moodiness that about covers all of him and his personality lately.What does any one one else think.

  • To get it put in the press that he used him. Makes him look more Hollywood. It's all a game. "Robert Evans" is top notch. Not only that, he probably thought he'd be able to sell the photos. FAIL. Delusions of grandeur.

  • im surprised that he hired that expensive photographer Robert Evans for the wedding, everyone keeps saying how cheap he is? why shell out the dough for all that?

    • Maybe Robert Evans is the only expensive thing he did pay for. He did it at his house and the suit and dress could have been rented.So he thought why not.It might have been his only way of getting ppl to believe it.
