For the first time in over three years,  Nine Inch Nails is touring the U.S., and tonight, they're stopping by St. Louis. By the time you read this, it might be too late to buy tickets, but if you're a hardcore fan, that shouldn't stop you. Head over to the Scottrade Center early to haggle with ticket scalpers.

What: A chance to rock out with one of the greatest hard-core bands of all time.

Where: Scottrade Center

When: Concert starts at 8pm on Wednesday, August 20.

For those of you who are a bit out of the loop, returning member Robin Finck and new addition Rich Fownes will join Trent Reznor, Alessandro Cortini and Josh Freese onstage.

To get you in the mood, here are a few lines from "Discipline," which is off of their intense album, The Slip, which was released (FOR FREE!) earlier in 2008:

Am I
Am I still tough enough?
Feels like i’m wearing down, down, down, down, down
Is my visciousness
Losing ground, ground, ground, ground ground?
Am I taking too much
Did I cross a line, line, line?
I need my role in this
Very clearly defined.

Long story short, you might not get a chance to see these guys in concert again for a long time, and they're known for their great live performances. If you're in the mood for wailing guitars and distorted rythms, this could  be your best shot at channeling your inner rock star for a while.
