First and foremost, I want to apologize to Mediaguy for posting the video. We have discussed the matter and now that both sides of the story have been told, I think it is pretty easy to see how it was deemed acceptable.

I never touched him; I only filmed it and posted it. No different than JFK posting pictures. Fact of the matter is that lots of people held my camera. I will say this however; those people that did put ketchup on him did so because they deemed it acceptable because of two reasons:

1) Prior post where he stated it was ok and it was his way of Marketing.


You all have to understand something, if you go to shows, you see some crazy marketing schemes. This is not an unbelievable scenario. Companies do a lot of crazy things for exposure. We don?t all agree on the methods, but I think we can agree on the strategic diversity.

2) He did not seem that intoxicated at times. Believe it or not, he repeatedly asked to write his site name on his head. People were trying to do that for him, it just isn?t all in what I put in the film.


Next to JFK, I likely have more show pictures than anyone in the industry. I have always been sensitive about the footage and pictures that I have made public. I apologize for being irresponsible with this specific footage; I would never want to harm anyone?s business. I know my pictures are posted everywhere, I have come to live with how shows are. I have been told there are people that try to get me in compromising pictures so people can take pictures from afar.

In Montreal, after I helped him out, he thanked the ones who wrote on him and called it publicity. This, more than anything, is the central issue in where I got confused. After speaking with him, he is a very nice guy. I think that he will move forward and everyone will forget. In both Montreal and Florida, he never once harmed anyone and he was very much energetic about his program.

Like I said, if I had been asked not to post the video, I would not have posted it. Although the video is now considered ?controversial,? the pictures from Montreal and Florida are not much different. My video came under fire because it appeared more set up than it was. A lot of those same people in the video tried to help him numerous times.


I never had a personal problem with the guy. It was a communication issue, plain and simple. At the end of the day, I will help him out if he so needs it. Maybe it will turn out to be a good thing. I don?t get involved in drama, this was rather new for me. I will say this, it is very time consuming!

I wish him all the best. Please keep this a happy thread and remember that he is a nice guy and was really trying to do his job. Maybe he should come in and tell us about his program. We all know the url, but lets hear it from him.

Cory.
