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.
Lesson learned!
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 Trent's pleasure. I've hoped that all fans would be totally
into NIN as well, but unfortunately this was only partly like that, however: the NIN-set was a bit tough in the beginning as well... but I liked it a lot.
