==Notes==
On March 29, 2007 [[Nine Inch Nails]] were confirmed to headline Frequency Festival in Salzburg, Austria [http://www.frequency.at/index.php?id=frequencynews&no_cache=1&tx_music_pi8%5Bnewsid%5D=680&backPid=244 News Archive].Two months later, German fun-punk-band Die Ärzte, whose fans are known for their obsessive fandom, were also announced to play Frequency Festival [http://www.frequency.at/index.php?frequencynews News]. It was soon found out discovered that they were to headline on the very same day as [[Nine Inch Nails]].
The release of the timetable [http://www.frequency.at/index.php?id=frequencylineup2] caused some disconcertment discontent amongst Austrian and German [[Nine Inch Nails]]-fans as [[Nine Inch Nails]] were to play between Beatsteaks and Die Ärzte, two German bands who are very close.
During "[[Something I Can Never Have]]" parts of the crowd in the wavebreaker started chanting "Wir wollen Die Ärzte sehen..." (We want to see Die Ärzte)
outside of Germany) and discover they're huge somehow.
Lesson learned!
Extract of the organiser's review of Frequency Festival 2007 [http://forum.frequency.at/viewtopic.php?t=12416]:
Am donnerstag ging es dann von den fans heiss her und speziell der wellenbrecher war heissbegehrt und DÄ fans haben sich dort den ganzen tag nicht mehr weg bewegt.. was dann ja bekanntlich trent nicht "so getaugt" hat. ich hatte gehofft das alle fans auch bei NIN mit gehen würden aber das war dann leider nur teilweise so, allerdings war auch das NIN set anfangs eher zäh... aber mir hat es gut gefallen.
Translation:
On Thursday it heated up between the fans, especially a place in the wavebreaker was wanted and Die Ärzte-fans didn't leave it the whole day... which wasn't really to trentTrent's pleasure. iI've hoped that all fans would be totally into nin NIN as well, but unfortunately this was only partly like that, however: the nin NIN-set was a bit tough in the beginning as well.... but i I liked it a lot.
