When Jane’s Addiction alum Eric Avery announced his departure from Nine Inch Nails’ new touring lineup, the only thing that kept the butt hurt at bay was the hope that Danny Lohner might fill in.

We couldn’t think of any better outcome, but apparently that was a limitation of our own imaginations, not actual possibility.

Today, Trent Reznor announced that guitar god Robin Finck has re-joined NIN.

Some sites are reporting that Finck is the new bassist, but it seems more likely to us that Josh Eustis has moved over to bass, as these photo suggest.
