[[Nine Inch Nails]] played at the Frequency Festival in Salzburg, Austria, on August 16, 2007as part of the [[Performance 2007]] tour. 

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 announced to play Frequency Festival [http://www.frequency.at/index.php?frequencynews News]. It was soon found out 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) *In a rare case, "[[Hurt (song)|Hurt]]" was not played at the festival due to hecklers. *[[Trent Reznor]] called this concert "the worst performance and certainly the worst crowd of the whole tour by far." There are reports that people in the audience were on their phones while the band played, sat down in the wavebreaker and rude behavior in general from the crowd. *The following statement was posted in the Tour Journal at [http://www.echoingthesound.org ETS]: The blame lies with us (NIN). We should never have been booked at that festival in that slot in the first place. The responsible booking agent had been replaced a while ago but some of his shitty bookings remain. It seems from time to time we get stuck in a festival slot that is unwinnable - playing in front of an audience that doesn't AND SHOULDN'T like us. Just so happens that seems to happen in and around Germany the most. We show up and see band names we've never heard of (nor has anybody else 50 miles outside of Germany) and discover they're huge somehow.

  *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 warauch auch das NIN set anfangs eher zäh... aber mir hat es gut gefallen. 

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 ninNIN-set was a bit tough in the beginning as well.... but i I liked it a lot.
