MUSIC NEWS - Trent Reznor is back on the internet, and used the Nine Inch Nails website yesterday to offer up some details about NIN's farewell performances. Straight from Mr Reznor:

"Getting right to the point, we're going to play a handful of shows in NYC, Chicago and LA starting August 22nd. They will be informal affairs in medium to small venues with longer set-lists, possible special guests, cool openers and other surprises."

"Upon reflection, the NIN/JA tour felt like we had to rush through sets due to a limited allotted set length and many shows were in daylight - it just didn't feel right to end NIN that way.

"An offer to headline V-Fest in Toronto (being announced soon) set the idea in motion to play some FUN shows to end this up with. If we can get it together we'll film these shows, too." "Upon reflection, the NIN/JA tour felt like we had to rush through sets...it just didn't feel right to end NIN that way" Trent Reznor

He further explains"In NYC we'll be playing Bowery Ballroom, Webster Hall and Terminal 5. In Chicago, the Aragon Ballroom. In LA we'll be at The Wiltern, The Henry Fonda, The Palladium and The Echoplex. These should be cool, unusual and unique shows and I hope you come out - this is it." "So far, The Horrors will be joining us for some shows in NYC, Mew will be with us at other shows in NYC, Chicago and LA, and perhaps more. Details and ticket info will be announced shortly, so check back. Thanks, Trent"

Yes, I know, we've heard it before from artists; Farewell Tour, Final Shows, Good bye Tour, but we can only take Trent at his word, this is it!!! But time will time if he gets the itch to re-visit NIN someday in the future. Just in case, go see one/two of these shows !!! And, you could always go the reunion tour, too!
