The Twenty Thirteen Tour was a concert tour by industrial rock band Nine Inch Nails to support the album Hesitation Marks. It marked the return of the band for live performances after a four-year touring hiatus. It began on July 26, 2013, and ended on August 30, 2014.
Background
In February 2009, Trent Reznor stated, "I've been thinking for some time now it's time to make NIN disappear for a while.", indicating the possible end of the act.[1] Nine Inch Nails then embarked on a tour with Jane's Addiction, dubbed NIN|JA.[1][2] Afterwards, Reznor clarified that the band is done with touring for the foreseeable future but he will continue to make music under the moniker.[3] Nine Inch Nails' final live performance was September 10, 2009 at the Wiltern Theater in Los Angeles.[4] Reznor also sold numerous performance gears, which include instruments, staging, amplifiers and effects units on eBay after the last concert.[5] Since the final show, until the release of Hesitation Marks in 2013, Reznor released only two tracks as Nine Inch Nails: the theme song for the film, Tetsuo: The Bullet Man and a cover of "Zoo Station" by U2, for the tribute album AHK-toong BAY-bi Covered.[6][7]
Touring
In 2012, Reznor confirmed that he was working on new Nine Inch Nails material and might be performing live again.[8][9][10] In February 2013, Reznor announced the return of Nine Inch Nails and revealed tour details. He also revealed that the new lineup of the band included Eric Avery of Jane's Addiction, Adrian Belew of King Crimson, and Joshua Eustis of Telefon Tel Aviv, as well as returning members Alessandro Cortini and Ilan Rubin.[11][12] However, both Avery and Belew quit before the tour commenced,[13][14] with former member Robin Finck returning in their place.[15][16]
On February 23, 2013, it was announced that the band would perform at Fuji Rock Festival, Pukkelpop and Rock 'n' Heim Festival in Hockenheim, Germany in mid-2013. On March 11, 2013, it was announced that they would also play Reading and Leeds Festivals.[17][18] The Tension 2013 leg of the tour had support from Godspeed You! Black Emperor and Explosions in the Sky.[19]
