Anyone that has seen a good SDE would know it is not merely a replay of the ceremony. That would be boring.

When the occasional standing O does happen they are not looking at me as they clap. They are looking at the B&G. They were the stars of the SDE and not Trisha or I. Sure, we receive...

Hi Travis,
I really wasn't trying to sell you something, just answer your questions about WEVA, but non-the-less, thanks for your order. We have received great reviews on "The Art Of" Combo Pack.

Hi Bruce,
I hand hold the controller. I'm usually in another room away from the cameras. I guess you certainly could mount the contoller to a tripod, I just haven't had the need to do so.
