When we got there at 7:00, we were ready to go, but filming was still going on inside. So we waited outside.

It's very cool inside and the people are really nice.

We waited for about an hour.

I zoomed into VeeVee and saw the host of BeerGeeks.TV Michael Ferguson, filming with Dan Valachovic from VeeVee and Mystic Brewery's Bryan Greenhagen.

That was the only time I saw Michael, other than when I introduced myself and shook his hand at the door.

That's the life of an extra.

We were finally let in and Dan, owner of VeeVee, started filling up our glasses from the taps.

PSY - GENTLEMAN M/V YouTube Video depicts a physically abusive dating relationship

Steve Garfield — Sat, 13 Apr 2013 14:30:28 GMT

I watched this PSY video to compare it to Gangnam Style, and although it has some beautiful videography and choreography, PSY's character comes across as someone who is in a physically abusive dating relationship. It's immature and not funny.

Bad examples:

Speeding up the treadmill while someone is on it, making them fall off.
