Parker Signature Artist Adrian Belew Joins Trent Reznor for
Nine Inch Nails Tour
From Adrian's blog on February 25:
today it is being announced at last. something I've been wanting to tell you for a month now: I've been asked to be the guitarist for nine inch nails! we are going on an extensive world tour, reaching places even I have never been!
I'll be moving (temporarily) to LA in may for 3 months of rehearsals after which the tour begins. that's about as much as I know for sure for now.
daniel rowland will be assisting me on the tour which should allow us some time to continue our third year of making my new solo project.
here is what trent reznor released today (Feb. 25th):
"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."
