Getting right to the point, we're going to play a handful of shows in NYC, Chicago and LA starting August 22nd. They will be informal affairs in medium to small venues with longer set-lists, possible special guests, cool openers and other surprises. Upon reflection, the NIN/JA tour felt like we had to rush through sets due to a limited allotted set length and many shows were in daylight - it just didn't feel right to end NIN that way. An offer to headline a festival (being announced soon) set the idea in motion to play some FUN shows to end this up with. If we can get it together we'll film these shows, too.

In NYC we'll be playing Bowery Ballroom, Webster Hall and Terminal 5. In Chicago, the Aragon Ballroom. In LA we'll be at The Wiltern, The Henry Fonda, The Palladium and The Echoplex. These should be cool, unusual and unique shows and I hope you come out - this is it.

So far, The Horrors will be joining us for some shows in NYC, Mew will be with us at other shows in NYC, Chicago and LA, and perhaps more.
Details and ticket info will be announced shortly, so check back.

Thanks,
Trent

so this is the festival he's talking about here?

Btw i hate that hes doing this uber cool final shows only in the us... But i'll deal with it.

Ps. LOL at horrors opening for them

yeah he should to an uber cool show in london, just for one more time. I know he is playing next week, which I am attending. Last week when I went to the meet and greet, I saw a sound check and that was pretty cool enough. But would love to see more....

he used the 'this is it' term which MJ used for his tour which never happened.

I am sick of Trent and his tempermental ass. He always treats the East Coast fans with crap. He put on a crap show in MD, then wouldn't you know he wants to do extra shows (everywhere else). Wish he could make up his mind and not play with fans. For some reason musicians hate DC. I get it, but don't hold the fans accountable.
