This time, there are no cameos, but West carries the show with no shortage of energy. "We ...

... -- i.e. nobody will be painting the walls -- only this time with a slightly bigger ego. Did you know he put Chicago on the map? He'll tell you. ( Brooklyn Vegan has nice shots.) Nine Inch Nails, well, that was a little different: Trent let his voice, catalogue, light show, and chiseled forearms do the talking. The stage lights and jumbotron camera work were jaw dropping -- all interactive fake waterfalls and disorienting image superimpositions -- and the hits hit with industrial bliss. Singing "Hurt" with 25,000 others on a skyline-lit, perfect summer night is not the sort of ...
