Trent Reznor Peels Back Comments About Nine Inch Nails Retiring From the Road: ‘We May Tour Again’

It's gone from possibly never to not never, but definitely not "next month" or "this year."

The name of the just-concluded Nine Inch Nails tour is apt given recent statements from singer/founder Trent Reznor. Because after suggesting at a show in Tulsa last month that the legendary industrial rock band’s touring days may be coming to an end, Reznor peeled those comments back at the final Peel it Back tour stop in Sacramento on Monday night (March 16).

In a fan YouTube video from the show, Reznor acknowledged that it was the last show on this particular tour and added, “and to be clear. I think I said something the other day that then got misconstrued into something that is not intentionally, necessarily true. What I said was, ‘this is the last show of this tour and we don’t have any shows booked and we don’t have any plans to book any shows anytime in the future, so far.'”
