Hard to pick one but I think my fave NIN song is The Becoming.
My fave Trent anecdote is on wikipedia:
Personally I find that inspiring. I may not be able to make music, but I can mop the floor real good!!!
Assitant engineer AND janitor is such a wild mix.
"Hey, do some technical stuff. AND all the small shit that has to be done around here."
I'm guessing it was an entry-level job. I think at that point Trent only had a high-school diploma and little if any experience.
