Eric Avery quits: Eric Avery, the bassist for Nine Inch Nails, has quit the band, according to a post on his Facebook account this week.
“It’s [sic] with very mixed emotions I tell you all that I’m pulling out of NIN,” Avery wrote on Wednesday.
Avery said that the idea of touring for as long as a year and a half is a daunting task.
He said, “I know. It’s been a tough call and I don’t know if it’s the right one. But I really want to focus on my musical life here in L.A., on film work in particular. As the tour dates kept growing… I just got overwhelmed.”
Avery added: “Fortunately my friend Trent understands all this and appreciated my pulling the plug now instead of deep into 2013 and 14. Go get ‘em gentlemen.”
