Trent Reznor Hints NIN Tour May End Live Shows

During a concert in Tulsa, Oklahoma, on February 27, 2026, Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor suggested that the band's current tour might mark the end of their live performances, expressing both pride in the ongoing shows and gratitude to fans. The remark came midway through the industrial rock group's set at the BOK Center, as part of the ongoing Peel It Back world tour.

Reznor shared the comment after reflecting on the band's early days in the city. He recounted a performance decades earlier at the smaller Cains Ballroom, where Nine Inch Nails opened for Peter Murphy. "I think one of the first times we played here, I think maybe it was Cains Ballroom, like 80 years ago," Reznor told the crowd. "I think we were opening for Peter Murphy and we were playing 'Head Like a Hole,' and I could see someone in the back screaming the fuckin' lyrics back at me. And I thought, 'This is all I ever wanted in life, is to connect with somebody like that dude in the back.'" He added that the memory shapes his feelings about returning to Tulsa. Reznor then transitioned to his uncertain outlook, stating, "I don't know if we're gonna be touring anymore after this, but I'm proud of the show...
