I cite my sources and they may differ than other people's accounts, so I don't guarantee the actual accuracy of my videos.
Prior to forming the band Filter in the early 90’s Richard Patrick would play guitar in the band Nine Inch Nails. While Trent Reznor would lead the band, Patrick would play on their debut album, appear in their early music videos and tour with the band over the course of 4 years from 1989 to 1993. After leaving Nine Inch Nails Patrick would go to form Filter and the band’s first hit song would have a truly disturbing source of inspiration. Today let’s talk about the history behind hey man nice shot.
Living in Cleavland in the 80’s Richard Patrick become a member of the Cleveland music scene playing in a nu-wave band called The Act. He would soon have a chance meeting with another local musician named Trent Reznor at a local music store who was playing a new wave pop act called Exotic Birds. Patrick’s band would end up opening for Exotic birds at a gig and the two musicians struck up a friendship going to concerts together seeing groups Skinny Puppy and Ministry. Patrick would recall that Reznor expressed his desire to start his own band and do his own music telling Spin Magazine “Trent had a collection of songs he was fishing around. He was curious; he tried things. He was like, “I think I can rap a little,” and so he does on “Down in It.” He was like, “I like Depeche Mode,” and he writes “Terrible Lie.”. Reznor would end up signing a record deal with TVT Records who would put out the band’s debut record Pretty Hate Machine in 1989.
Reznor asked Patrick to join the band and the guitarist would contribute on the band's debut record, even if it was minimal, playing the guitar feedback part at the end of track “Sanctified”.
Patrick also appeared in the Nine Inch Nails videos "Down in It", "Head Like a Hole" and Wish. and tour with the band, . Pretty Hate Machine would also set a record becoming one of the first independently released album at the time, to go platinum selling in excess of 3 million copies.
While Nine Inch Nails was riding high off the success of their debut album and playing the first lollapalooza in 1991, Patrick soon realized their was a great amount of inequality and disparity in the band. He would tell Billboard Magazine.
there was a point in time where Trent just kind of looked at me, and I said, ‘Wow, you’re going down to New Orleans to go live in this beautiful house that you’re getting, and I’m gonna go back to my mom and dad’s house.’ Patrick would reveal to author jon wiederhornin his book Louder Than Hell The Definitive Oral History of Heavy Metal that he was making about $400 a month playing in Nine Inch Nails, Meanwhile he would frequently see Reznor destroy tens of thousands of dollars of equipment on tour each night.
When Patrick revealed his concerns about not making enough money, Reznor told the guitarist according to Stop, Drop and Talk Podcast, ‘Hey, listen, Rich, I know you need some extra cash. Listen. Down at the end of [the street], there’s a little pizzeria, and they need drivers. So maybe you can go make some extra cash over there. And I’m, like, ‘Wow!’
At the same time, Reznor would urge Patrick to write his own record to get out of his awful financial situation and not solely rely on Nine Inch Nails. Patrick would take that advice and started to record his own music. He would add in the same interview
I got close to kind of getting a record deal, and [Trent] didn’t know it at the time, but I had already lined up Warner Brothers. And I was in Los Angeles to kind of work on [Nine Inch Nails‘] ‘The Downward Spiral‘ [album]. I’m only getting on this ball one time, and if I don’t step out on my own now, I’m never gonna do it.
According to the book Louder Than Hell, It was during Patrick’s final days in Nine Inch Nails around 1993 that the guitarist wrote the song Hey man, Nice Shot. He originally presented the song to Reznor, who took a liking to it and wanted to work on it. However, one day later Patrick received a call from Reznor’s manager who

    The Budd Dwyer thing was messed up, because all of our parents were following the story. We only had a few local channels back then, and everyone was watching TV when the live newsbreak cut in. The adults rushed over and turned up the volume so they could hear the press conference. Then it happened live, and we all saw it. Everyone in elementary school was talking about it the next day. Kids were running around spraying squirt guns into theirs mouths joking, "I'm Budd Dwyer," which would instantly get you in big trouble.

    He's right, it's not Faces of Death, it was on Traces of Death, a discount version of the same thing. I know this because I made the mistake of renting it when I was 16. I have never, EVER forgotten the sound of the blood pouring out all over the podium, or the image of it pouring out as though a hose was turned on. I couldn't believe our heads had so much blood in them. Here I am now 45 and it's still seared into my memory as I write this. Quite possibly one of, if not *THE* most disturbing thing I've ever seen. Probably because I was only 16 and it wasn't even a resemblance of the movies.

    Another interesting story about Budd Dwyer's suicide: The band CKY used a stylized picture of Budd Dwyer holding the gun in his mouth for their original cover of their first record. After CKY signed an endorsement deal with Volcom in 2001, it was changed. Imagine the shock of seeing that Budd Dwyer press conference live. Apparently it was a snow day and most of the schools were closed, so more people were watching it than normal. You're just flipping through the channels looking for something to watch and suddenly you see some guy *just fucking off himself* on TV.

Just like "Heart Shaped Box" from Nirvana, which looks like a warning video. "Hey Pig" "March of the Pigs" "Reptile" "Ruiner" and more..
