It's always the people the least expect this from...
20 something years ago, there was a concert of a band i really liked. They were the opener for a german band i never really cared for. It was a pretty big venue but it was pretty empty during the concert i was there to see. I was about to leave after the show and thought i might as well see the main show, since the tickets were expensive. The venue suddenly filled up and felt like 80% were straight boneheads. It was really super uncomfortable, because they weren't hiding it. Like it strated with hitler salutes, which to be fair the band strongly condemned. After the third song or so, it was getting hot in there, so people took off their shirts. There were SO MANY guys with portraits of adolf hitler. Adolf hitler doing the hitler salute, swastikas, adolf hitlers head in front of the matterhorn. And here is at least to me, the crazy part: these tattoos were GORGEOUS. I mean i was disgusted, but i myself have a lot of tattoos, and i was jealous of the the piece of shit neo nazi tattoo artist that they all seem to know.
I really think about this night a lot. Because a lot of the guys there, like myself was pretty young, and i doubt that they all just stay neo nazis. So i wonder a lot how many of these guys have the most gorgeous adolf hitler portraits on their bodies that they can never show anyone.
