"yeeeeeehawwwwwww!" - UPDATE HOLLYWOOD

For those who don't know, my son Griffin moved to Hollywood several years ago and set up a recording studio. He's worked his butt off and put in hours at his craft that many of us would never dream of. It's been non-stop since he got there with his wife, Katrina. Katrina is a lawyer and is working for a highly regarded law firm and has worked her way up the cooperate ladder so fast it would make your head spin - she's super-talented in what she does.

Griffin did a song in the U.K. for a group called "The Saturdays". Their album, "HEADLINES" just released in Europe 30 minutes ago and is already the #1 album on iTunes U.K.! ! ! His first major label placement goes #1 ! ! !

The song he did is "Puppet" and it's being looked at for the group's next single ! ! !

The album will release in the U.S. tomorrow. I think I'll log on and buy his song - how cool would that be if it hit #1 in the states?!

Grif co-wrote, produced and engineered the song "Puppet"! THAT'S HUGE!
