This tour was the very first Nine Inch Nails tour. They were an opening act for Skinny Puppy in the fall of 1988. After the Skinny Puppy support ended, they had a one-off date at Duquesne University and a one-off date for a TVT showcase at the Phantasy after NIN signed with TVT Records. The tour is part of the Pretty Hate Machine Tour series.
