Yesterday, I was taking pictures at Shape of Sin in Het Kasteel, like I often do when there are bands playing. But it didn't really go as planned..
After the second band finished playing, three guys in uniforms, with "S.S. Totenkopf" pins, "Thor's hammer" pendants, etc. came at me and started taking pictures of me with their mobile phones. When I asked them to stop, they became angry and started threatening me and they seemed to want a fight. Then they demanded that I removed all pictures of them from my camera.
After not believing me when I told them I didn't have any pictures of the audience, only of the bands, their "leader" wanted to see all the (100) pictures on my camera, while his friends were getting more and more aggressive behind him.
After reporting this incident to the people in charge, I heard the trio had been harassing other photographers as well (and there were a lot of those, as Shape of Sin is a goth party). But they hadn't approached the people walking around with video cameras..
I should probably have taken a picture of them, deleted it while they were watching, and then restore it using photorec. But things like that are easy to forget when you're trying to avoid a fight with three people at once..
