According to ultimateclassicrock.com, the original lineup of Nine Inch Nails made a surprise reunion appearance during the band’s concert in Ohio on September 24th. Trent Reznor was joined by Richard Patrick, Chris Vrenna, Danny Lohner, and Charlie Clouser as they performed along with the current members of the band for the last six songs of the set. The surprise appearance came after the former band members’ appearance at the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame’s Nine Inch Nails Fan Day in Cleveland the previous day. Reznor admitted he had felt cynical at the band’s Rock Hall induction in 2020 saying, “I hesitate to look back, It’s not just me and it never has been just me.” His aim had been to gather all the former members to celebrate a “great job,” but “COVID had other plans for us.” He continued to say that: “We’ve been friendly throughout the years and I thought it would be nice to have everyone come up and just acknowledge it, feel okay about it.”
