Changes

It’s hard to believe that NIN got its start over 30 years ago. In 1988, NIN was asked to open for [[Skinny Puppy]] on the east coast leg of the [[VIVIsectVI Tour|“Vivisect VI” tour]]. We did that tour driving up and down the coast crammed into Trent’s hatchback. It was the most exciting thing ever. I was 21 years old and had no idea what was to come.
One of my fondest memories was when we were living in the [[Le Pig|Sharon Tate house ]] while making ''[[The Downward Spiral (halo)|The Downward Spiral]]''. We always worked hard, even though it never really felt like work. We knew something special was happening…You could just feel it. But I don’t think anyone could have predicted ''The Downward Spiral''’s success and its longevity. We had the greatest live show on Earth, capped by our now legendary, mud-soaked [[1994/08/13_Saugerties,_NY|Woodstock show]] in 1994 that we ultimately won a Grammy for.
My years with Trent and NIN are some of the best of my life, and I continue to treasure those memories. And now, those memories can live on in the Rock and Roll HOF. Thank you to every single fan…past, present, and future that continue to discover NIN. I personally appreciate all the fan support not only during my time in NIN, but for my career afterward as well. I am eternally grateful for everything we accomplished with NIN.</p>

==2022 Fan Day==
On September 23, 2022, a special Nine Inch Nails Fan Day was held. The official info from the Rock Hall website[https://www.rockhall.com/events/nine-inch-nails-fan-day] stated:

The Q&A session was hosted by Lizzy Goodman, and included all band members who were inducted in 2020, as well as Richard Patrick and Charlie Clouser.
 
The NIN performance the following night also featured Vrenna, Lohner, Patrick and Clouser for the final six songs. This reunion of past band members was originally planned for NIN's Rock Hall induction ceremony, which was altered by the COVID pandemic.[https://www.cleveland.com/entertainment/2022/10/richard-patrick-talks-nine-inch-nails-reunion-whats-next-for-filter.html]
