Grayson's Guestbook Messages

Grayson, I've been loving your music for years now. I'd never heard Songbones though. So I purchased it today. Wow. It's incredible. I always adore stripped down versions.
Thank you so much for the wonderful songs. Can't wait to hear what you do next.

I would have to add to Stacie's comment.... It was an honor. The best feeling show I have been to in years! Thanks for coming, hope to see you again soon!

What a privilege to have experienced such an amazing performance, in such an intimate setting, Saturday night in Kirkland, Il. Fantastic!!!

So, when are you coming to Switzerland?
Your music in the movie A Love Song for Bobby Long have lead me to write this first message to a song writer. You have a very gifted voice and talent for writing lyrics.

Please come to Germany with your great Blues

"Philosophy is said to begin in wonder and end in understanding. Art departs from what has been understood and ends in wonder." (John Dewey 'Art as Experience' Late Works Volume 10 page 274.)

"Art is the extension of the power of rites and ceremonies to unite men, through a shared celebration, to all incidents and scenes of life. This office is the reward and seal of art. That art weds man and nature is a familiar fact. Art also renders men aware of their union with one another in origin and destiny." (John Dewey, 'Art as Experience' Late Works Volume 10 page 275.)

thanks for your autograph. my son ,the 14 yr old sax player, and I enjoyed meeting you at the Jazz Festival. Hope to catch you soon, would love to see another concert of yours. Joe

Miss Fifi LaFortune were you talking to me? You know I cut my hair and then just forgot to go back to church. I started dancing at Grayson Capps gigs for beers instead. I'm flying pretty high but I haven't p@$$ed God lately in his UfO. What the hell is that down there in the water...

Just like to tell you. Saw you at The Larry Keel Family Function and that Killer. Hope to catch you soon.
Peace

good moring grayson and daron,
love you all ; have a goooood trip : would be honored if you used my pictures --no cost .
still hold down the fort on MUSIC ST.

Hey There, I just saw a movie called A song for Bobby Long! At the end the song with aforementioned title was playing and I had to look you up! Great vocals, great song! I am from Connecticut and learning guitar (at almost 40 years old), and can really appreciate some great lyrics and vocals and guitar! You guys rock. Hope you eventually make it up to NY or Boston (or even CT), is is great on the water here in the summer! Rock on!!!! Beth from CT

helllo all

Hey Zack from Pell City! You are right on the mark with your praise of my pal Grayson. If you can find a buyer for a piece of commercial land I have for sale just south of the Century 21 office, I will have a huge @$$ party with Grayson as the entertainment. Free food, free beer. The Baptist Church on one side and the wicked witch on the other should pose no problem! I am, after all the great granddaughter of the founder of that town, Sumter Cogswell. You in? Thanks in advance Grayson! It'll be a heck of a party!!!

Upon becoming convinced that God does indeed drive a UFO, Sister Sande Faye, Deaconess of The Church of I Ain't Cuttin' My Damn Hair has become an adherent to the Church of the UFO in her spare time. This will in no way interfere with her pastoral duties to her flock at The Church of I Ain't Cuttin' my Damn Hair. Go SSF! Ride the UFO!

Happy Birthday! Hope to catch at the Cove later on. Chow Baby

Well what can I say but wow. Such talent. I am so happy I stumbled upon your music on iTunes. I have mention your music to the Dayton Blues Society (I'm a member) and I hope you come to the great State of Ohio soon. God Bless you Grayson and thank you for sharing your gifts with the rest of us.

I was fortunate to discover your music opening for Tab Benoit in Bham this week and loved every bit of it. Great story telling, just down home feeling the blues and great acoustic guitar piF**KING. My gauge of a guitarist is based on the sound you can get from a raw acoustic and again, we loved every bit of it from the dolbro to the old beat up gibson. Will be looking for you to come around soon and definitely wont miss when you are in driving distance of Bham.

Just Holland in Europe????????? Do we vikings have to travel down to the tulips???

Fell in love w yr music after seeing Love Song for Bobby Long. I saw on the ArtsQuest site you are going to be at Musikfest in August (Bethlehem PA). Can't wait!! We'll buy you a beer!

Hi sweetie! Can't wait to see you in Hattiesburg!! And JazzFest and dba and LeBonTemps and wherever! Happy festival season! We miss you!

See you in The Hague next month! Looking forward to it.

Happy Easter to you and your family! We had a blast this weekend at the Keel Family Function. Beautiful land, lots of music, and great people. Great show man. You were the highlight of the festival. So good to see you again. Enjoyed hangin out, talkin and sippin a little shine. My dad will really appreciate the signed cd. Thanks for that. We picked up the dvd and have been diggin it tonight.

Hey Grayson,great shows at the Shed and the BlueGill.We had a blast the whole weekend.Got an e-mail saying you would be at Capital Oyster Bar here in Mont.Just wondering if true,it's not on your schedule.Good place for music,but weather could force show inside,and that's small area.ARMS has good membership so maybe they will be able to book you at larger place in the future.Take care,don't eat the yellow snow.Good nite and may God bless.Terrell and Martha.

Rob, that's great news! thanks for sharing. zag vandaag op facebook dat Grayson in mei weer naar Europa komt.

A tip for those Dutchies out there who don,t know where to get the great DVD: Just order it at Amazon, and don't worry about the DVD regions. I did, and got my copy via some Swiss (?) company and it works perfect on European players.

And there are rumours about a tour in May, see the website of the Zwijnshoofd cafe, Bergen op Zoom.

Listening to you now on the zew. It's great to hear you... you sound terrific!

hjello alll

Leavin' some lovin'. Dig "I Can't Hear You." The fiddle mesmerizes me. As does your voice. Sing it, man. Peace.

Closing Call

At the closing call
when comraderie and the night wanes
I look so pretty,
and I don't have to be alone.
Touching breathing whispering
I always say
You'll never meet anyone like me.
A meaningless truth
in the drunken darkness.

There was a time
when it seemed so special
to be listened to long enough
to give more than was given.
Casting hope laden pearls
till the string was too bare
to have any worth.
Understanding came too late.
Some lessons can't be unlearned.

Longing for nonexistant feeling
has grayed the color of my soul.
Hope deferred sombering silly dreams.
And yet still I know
there is no one like me.
I stitch together scraps of care
to replace what is worn.
At the closing call
I still look pretty.

I just listened to Stavin' Chain this morning. I had no idea how great it was going to be. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE "Susanne" and "Harley Davidson." Pure pleasure.
