After touring Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and Japan, Nine Inch Nails has just announced the full schedule of dates for its first North American tour in five years, an outing that kicks off Wednesday night in Cleveland.

Nine Inch Nails currently plans to play 43 concerts in 10 weeks for its "Fragility v2.0" tour, according to the schedule released by the band's label, Nothing Records.

The upcoming gigs will mark the first time that Nine Inch Nails will have toured the U.S. in support of its critically acclaimed 1999 double album, "The Fragile," which has sold some 705,000 copies in America since its release last September, according to SoundScan.

As we previously reported, A Perfect Circle, a band featuring Tool frontman Maynard James Keenan and guitarist Billy Howerdel, will be opening up for NIN (see [article id="1432646"]"Nine Inch Nails Taps A Perfect Circle For U.S. Tour"[/article]).
