'Cued up: Local show goes viral
It's a typical taping night for the Midnight Barbecue. Guests are offered a beer and ushered into the green room, and the producer checks camera angles while the hosts chat with a guest who was beaten raw by a dominatrix on last week's show.
In the tradition of do-it-yourself talk shows pioneered by Wayne's World, the "studio" is the spare bedroom in the hosts' apartment. Unlike its cable-access predecessor, however, this apartment is courtesy one of the show's sponsors, the massive GrandMarc at the Corner. So are the electronics (thank you, Crutchfield). And the beer in the green room's kegerator? That would be from Starr Hill, yet another sponsor.
This is the Midnight Barbecue. Wayne Campbell, eat your heart out.
