I normally don’t pay any attention to television in the morning, even though it is usually on in the house when I get up. It’s just background noise.
For some reason, however, a Today Show video clip from the Video Music Awards caught my ear.I don’t usually watch awards shows, but the story about Kanye West jumping on stage during Taylor Swift‘s acceptance speech stayed on my mind all morning.
Finally, about lunch time, it dawned on me why i couldn’t get this off my mind.
We had provided all the batteries for wireless mics used at the VMA Awards.
The batteries in the mic that Kanye West grabbed out of Taylor Swift’s hand had come from us. About two weeks ago we shipped a huge battery order to Radio City Music Hall for Moonman Productions, the video production arm of MTV. It was a great order, but I didn’t really give it much thought. Now we’re a side note to entertainment history.
I am usually proud to proclaim the reliability of ProCell batteries, but, just this one time, it might have been better if there had been a catastrophic battery failure.
