Hello connellmcg(your synonym),
My name is Ray Rubyn, I am the manager of Mr. Wolfgang Flür, / Düsseldorf. I have to inform you that you must delete your video film which you took from Mr. Flür during his performance at the Leechrum Mountain Festival in Ireland North. You were not authorized by Mr. Flür. Only his filmer (kratzda) was authorized to film and upload Flur's performace on YouTube. Flür's international lawyer Rudiger Plegge is observing now this site and he gives you a time limit until August 06. Thursday 20:00h to delete your film. Your film contains immense comments which are damaging to business for my artist and can develope very expensive for you! Costs of lawyer / court / compensation money for Mr. Flür.
We also get in contact with the YouTube legal department.

i think nhe is spoofing, what do you think? also he spectifies a dat, august 6th (which has passed) and says it is in ireland north, when the festival was in the south. there are other vids of wolfgang flur that have not been taken from this guy. kinda ****ed off at this, im thinking of replying "do one, son".
Also, if he really did have a lawyer on the case then the lawyer would have written to you directly. Absolute nonsense this 'you need to do this because my lawyer said so.
See if there is any information from the festival (on the tickets etc) that specifically states that you may not film the event.
If there's nothing that says that, explain that you never entered into an agreement that you would not film said artist, and therefore he can go fcuk himself.
The guy is probably just trying to get more views on his video. Sounds like a load of rubbish, basically if it was so terrible you had your video on they would of contacted youtube and youtube would of just removed it.
