Now in my line of biz I’m thankful to work and keep quite busy. Events lead to other events and I’ve been asked to share the stage with people from Tom Selleck to the Pointer Sisters, Charlie Daniels, Diamond Rio and even KC & the Sunshine band to mention just a few. It’s not a big deal to me as people are people. I don’t generally get photos with them or even ask for autographs, we just hang out back stage and be people. (Although here are me and the Pointer Sisters on the right)
With that said, I recently showed up at an event and saw the name Judson Laipply on the bill. Meant nothing to me….until someone said something. “Oh he’s the Evolution of Dance Guy” and I froze.
“You mean that guy! The greatest phenom in the online video and viral marketing world.” I was literally speechless and so excited to meet him.
If you have never heard of this or seen him – he has the all time most viewed online video – over 90 million views on You Tube alone. He posted this video to show a group of kids and it had over 20 million views in 30 days. He became a phenom! Judson has appeared on everything from the Today Show to CNN, been written about in countless major publications.
Spend 6 minutes and enjoy the following. Watch it with your kids, your parents, grandparents – anyone, as you’ll all get something out of it.
Having known this video for some time and the following it has created I was totally starstruck and fortunate to have met such an incredible guy, Yup – I got the autograph. Yup, I took the photo. So here is me and the internet “Evolution of Dance” king doing the best Brady Bunch pose that we could (well mainly me – he has the move down).
Thanks Judson !
