We've all seen it...The Grand Rapids LipDub video. It's been 11 years since it was produced by Rob Bliss. Do you know the story behind the LipDub?

We have been hearing quite a bit lately about this area of ours.  How it's one of the best in the country to raise a family; it's one of the up-and-coming areas for job growth;  etc. Now, the web site Kiplinger.com has ranked East Grand Rapids fifth in a list of "10 Great Cities to Raise Your Kids."

Remember the Grand Rapids' lip dub video that took the country and YouTube by storm last year?  Well, the video has been nominated for an Earnie Award.

First let me say "This Is Brilliant."  It needs to be an ArtPrize entry.  That being said, four o'clock today, marked the "Official Launch" of the Rob Bliss, American Pie Lip Dub Video, filmed in Grand Rapids, last Sunday.  Good reviews so far...

Thousands participated in the "American Pie"  lip dub video on Sunday. Local celebs WOOD-TV 8's meteorologist Bill Steffen, Mayor George Heartwell, philanthropist Peter Secchia,  and Fox 17's Emily Richett got in on the act. Organizer Rob Bliss has released a trailer.
