I'm so bummed to hear about time to make NIN disappear for awhile (let that be at least 5 years, not forever), yet excited (for tour). I will make sure to attend at least 3 more shows (like last year). I was thinking of going to Bonnaroo, but can't afford it; plus if I did go to Bonnaroo, I wouldn't be able to afford anymore NIN shows. Make sure to come back around near TN. Much love and much respect!

...thinking for some time now it's time to make NIN disappear for a while.

I'm excited to get the chance to at least make it to one show this time around!!!
Can't wait!!!

Maybe i'm too positive or had too much AMP... Doubt it'll be forever, But you deserve a niiiice long break!
Thanks for all you do!<3

I'd rather get kicked in the nads than hear this, but TR needs a break.

He needs to recharge the batteries (so to speak), take a step back and come back in a few years.

Truly sad if he's done with NIN. We all know he won't go away completely though, which is important.

Thank you so much. I can't wait to see Jane's and NIN together. It will be epic.

TR so deserves a break but--This is not allowed to be a forever break. I can't imagine life without NIN.

TR has been a workaholic for a while now.... I knew the party would end some day..... I'm really glad for the heads up and obviously i'm really grateful for everything NIN has ever put out, there are no words...

Thanks Trent & Co. see ya when I see ya!!

Trent, I owe you so much. Sincerely, thank you.

Wave, wave, wave....

Initial reaction to Jane's... You are AWESOME! The fact that you are even sensitive enough to pick up on that implosion...and to offer it a new life (in spite of the troubles) speaks volumes about you as a person Mr. Trent...a spiral is coming full circle no?

Second reaction, sad to see this going on the back burner for a while. I SINCERELY hope it is for bigger and better things in your life. Like living...a life. You make me really want to read Outliers now. After the interview where you mentioned it, I came across it in the USAIR magazine (Cool careers/success article) on the flight to Vegas so......YA KNOW I stopped in the first book store at the airport and picked it up. LOL.

Lastly, I am glad this is one thing in my life I didn't miss, and it turn out I wasn't too late for after all. The NIN experience. THANK YOU SIR! For everything.

(P.s. if you want incredible inspiration, I suggest visiting the Valley of Fire...especially the Petroglyphs and the designs people make in the sand. I ended up pulling over on the East in-road and writing a REALLY shitty poem...it was that mind blowing! LOL IDK I swear I wanna call this place home some day...*sigh*)

Anywho, be well and safe travels ("Fare"-"well" fellow traveler) Looking forward to the final tour (for a while) and the meny meny pics of greasy spoons, roadside oddities and Brett in costume.

My response is purely selfish. I just found NIN, and now it's disappearing? Please be real about the "for a while". I understand the need for rest and reenergizing . . . but I can't stop thinking selfish thoughts. Thank you, thank you for all that your music has brought to my life these last six months, and your music will continue to be part of my life. Just please don't be gone for good.

I will be at a show if one is anywhere near me.

Woah..

OK I regret my last post. I didn't read the post thorough enough. It's great that so many people love NIN (including me), but some of these posts are so goddamned creepy. Yes Trent said NIN will be gone awhile but we still have over 500 songs and remixes to listen to and Another Version of the Truth DVD coming up, plus another tour.

I'll definitely be at the next show in my area though, front and center.

*drooling*

OK, time to listen the Jane's Addiction discography.

Trent makes me happy.

NIN is gone? forever or a few years?

If Trent says that NIN will disappear for a while, I'll take that to mean that it is not for good and he'll be working on other things.

While this is kinda sad, he's got to do what he feels is best for him and NIN, and I can do nothing but respect that.

Why do I suddenly feel like a beloved significant other just told me, "we need some time apart"? I'm not offended, and I understand; but this cold, sinking feeling in my stomach is a bit of a problem. Thanks for everything. I'll see you out there.

Also, a little "PS" or a post in here to say that you mean "hiatus" and not "THE END" would really make my day.
