Great shot of Twent Wezner looking like a fat boy.
Dio can still kick his ass and he's 60 years old!

Is there some sort of rule that all photos of NIN have to look the same?

Whoa, it really looks like Jay Reatard has slimmed down in that second picture.

I guess making fun of Trent Reznor's physical fitness is the new overdone BV joke. (Though I still don't see what's so funny about it.) Move over, "what time does Daft Punk go on." You kids are hilarious! And not at all repetitive!

i know it's nothing new, but what the fuck happened to the Trent.
dude's looking big in a bad way.

If you seriously think Dio could beat up Trent, that is just retarded.

Dio is a dwarf...

Dio rocks harder than Trent.

I heard Dio decked Fat Twent Roidner with a right cross and Twent called Sharon Osbourne to plot revenge.

Dio is a rock legend and Twent Roidner is a sad wannabe Charlie Manson on steroids.

Dude, did he fuck your ex-girlfriend or something? You've posted this shit in like 17 different threads. Get a life, man. It takes more energy to hate on this guy than it does to ignore it.

Twent is taking over for Billy Mays -- he's going to be a steroids pitchman.

Twent's new recipe for a speedball: shooting up creatine mixed with nitric oxide! What a way to get that roid rage revved up for the stage!

Ted Kennedy is MEH'ed, er, dead.

I hear Kathy Griffin is going to be at Twent Woidner's next "undead undead undead" concert. he tried to get Phil Lynott but Phil figured he wasn't worth doing a Lazarus for.

Posted by Anonymous | August 26, 2009 7:09 AM

Wow. Howard Stern was there. How impressive. Was Artie Lange there too? He'd be disppointed when he found that Trent's syringe only had creatine and nitric oxide supplements in it. I hear Pee Wee Herman might be at the next show for a duet on
"Hurt."

Posted by Anonymous | August 26, 2009 7:21 AM

Was Chuck Zito there? That would be impressive.

"Ted Kennedy is MEH'ed, er, dead."


Yep, and everyone Tuesday night was mourning the death of someone who boozed his whole life, road the coat tails of his criminal family, helped his nephew get away with rape, and got away with murder himself. But oh, he's a KENNEDY!! I love how the liberal media makes him out to be some sort of disciple (just like Obama), yet if a Republican who made actual accomplishments in our government (other than wasting our tax money) passed away we'd probably hear next to nothing about it. Good riddance!!
