Trent Reznor Announces the Return of Nine Inch Nails: Extensive Touring for
2013 and 2014
"The band is reinventing itself from scratch"

It's been four years since Nine Inch Nails' "Wave Goodbye" tour heralded the
end of an era for Trent Reznor's pioneering project. But since that time,
Reznor has maintained that NIN wasn't over forever, just changing focus.

Now, Reznor has announced that Nine Inch Nails will return to action in a
big way in 2013. Tours are planned for this summer and fall, all the way
into next year. The lineup will include Reznor, Eric Avery of Jane's
Addiction, Adrian Belew of King Crimson, and Josh Eustis of Telefon Tel
Aviv, as well as previous NIN collaborators Alessandro Cortini and Ilan
Rubin.

Here is the statement from Reznor:

NOTE FROM TRENT:
Nine Inch Nails are touring this year.

I was working with Adrian Belew on some musical ideas, which led to some
discussion on performing, which led to some beard-scratching, which (many
steps later) led to the decision to re-think the idea of what Nine Inch
Nails could be, and the idea of playing a show. Calls were made to some
friends, lots of new ideas were discussed, and a show was booked - which led
to another, which somehow led to a lot of shows.
The band is reinventing itself from scratch and will be comprised of Eric
Avery, Adrian Belew, Alessandro Cortini, Josh Eustis, Ilan Rubin, and me.
The first shows will begin this summer, followed by a full-on arena tour of
the US this fall, and lots of other dates worldwide to follow through 2014.

Lots of details and dates to come. See you soon.
