my gf n i i had some pretty bad experiences at SIN as well. rest assured Stratix, you're not alone.
my bad
experience with other "photographers". quotes used cos i dun think they deserve the term.
i also had an equally unhappy experience with the security personnel at SIN. during one of the stage shows, i was at the first row in front of the stage with my gf and a couple of frens. some Indian (not being racist or anything, but they ARE Indians) security personnel came before the show and asked everyone to move back.
a simple question: in such a situation, if the ppl behind refuse to budge, how are we going to move back since we're all the way at the front?
a couple of them then started to inch their way forcefully against photographers to push us (including my gf n i) back. :thumbsd:
then this burly young punk of the security team came n knocked against my lens (i dare say it's deliberate). :thumbsd:
lucky it's not a very powerful knock, if not... but i was still furious.. i stared at him n waited for his response. he stared back at me for a couple of seconds before moving away, without a word of apology or explanation. :thumbsd:
i wasnt intending to stay rooted at my spot, but i had to wait for the ppl further behind to move back before i could do the same. so wat's with the hostility n aggressiveness? :thumbsd:
all they knew was shouting and forcing their way through, and even manhandling paying customers to the show. :thumbsd:
i reckon it's a tough job having to ensure the well-being of the import models. but the actions taken? lucky thing is my lens was not damaged, and they didnt come into contact with my gf. if not i'll seek help from vince123123..
5 thumbs down to the security personnel of SIN. i hope those losers are not permanent staff of the contracted company. if not, i hope the company takes action, failing which i "bless" that they dun get similar large scale event jobs..
