Point/Counterpoint: Nine Inch Nails and Jane’s Addiction at Cricket Wireless Pavilion Nine Inch Nails should’ve headlined. Period. If Trent Reznor’s recent statements about how this is NIN’s “final” tour are to be believed, then a longer set was warranted for his Phoenix swan song. I’m glad for what I got, spending…
