Grayson's Guestbook Messages

Hey Admin,
I have to respectfully disagree with you, in my experience, pleasures are many, dangers are to be disregarded (whenever possible). Hey and sometimes the dangers actually add something to the pleasures. But, I guess that's the hedonist in me.
Keep on keepin' on,

Wow, that there's some powerful poetry Mr. Capps, you should maybe think about a career in litritchure or maybe writin' some music or somethin'. And what about the cookies to go with the bacon, it's a cl@$$ic combination, just ask Early.
Wanted to welcome the new admin, I'll miss that lovely admin from Surinam but, I can catch up with her other places. Anyway, new admin, I appreciate your no nonsense style, felt like rock em sock em robots for a little while there.
So now there's a Grayson Capps tribute band, sounds scary indeed.
Have fun at the Duck Pond, wish I could be there, North Carolina's got to be amazing this time of year, certainly not as hot and humid as we are down in NOLA.
See you boys in July, love ya, and Grayson quit sending emails while yer in the van.

Oh one more thing, how come the admin can type f**k and we can't???, is there a special key on the admin's keyboard??

Why do you always get there before I do Grayson. Damn. That back to the country song. I did something like that a few years ago. How do you and I share the same soul you haunt me that's why I"m here. I WANT MY BIG TOE. let me colaborate with you. I'm ready to give it to you I"ve loved you long enough now. You are worthy. my research, my dedication is complete, You're I'll submitt, I'll commit I'll bow you are worthy I'll share these peices with you I'll join your fight. I"ll see you out there is what I'll do. I'm going back to my Mama's she gonna wipe my nose.

Well hell: this is some exciting $#!t; Folgerburger with cheese please and don't sneeze on the trees for it might freeze to your knees and then where would you bees, jeez, Louise, damn, "Son!" that's right I said it, and I hope I p!$$ed you off give me a beer and a cigarette and some bacon and make yourself a guilt sandwich, I hear they are really good with a side of whoo, whoo, whoo.... oh no! you're so mean and I'm so; sensitive! I'm gonna start buying Mandicello records instead of yours.

dude, never said dan fogelberg was boring,you still cant read what the f**k!

We are the first italian Grayson Capps tibute band and we would be glad to have you here in Rome, is that possible?

Blah blah blah......

September.

wait a minute, are you Greg, or Not Important? And you most certainly did rag on D. Folgerberg. Your indication was that he was boring and somber. And I suppose incomparison to "the man" he may have been somewhat so. But in his heyday, He was the man. He was simply of a different era, a different sound and sent a different message. But he was a great talent, to be respected, as are all musicians who make it that far in this world. He is now lost to us. I just thought you may want to know that. He left the circuit years ago, but was known for playing great and fun shows locally in the small gritty dives before his death. He was still well loved locally and a huge local tribute was given in his name by many, many musicians. So no harm meant dear, just a piece of news, that perhaps you didn't know. No one compares to Graysons music, I just didn't see the need to put one talent up against another. You're fine, don't be mad. They are all our herors. People who get up on stage and put their heart and soul out there. Moving us with their talents and lyrics. Changing our days from normal to being a part of something special. Making us sing their music as we drive down the road alone, feeling like a part of something bigger than we are. So put that CD in and sing along, loud and hard...

Nice to hear from you, Wook! Is the moderator anyone we know? Ahh..no matter. Be it known to all who read this: Grayson and the Stumpknockers are worth a journey of 700 miles. Hmmm....might never know where the wench will appear. Be nice to her..always. Love y'all!!!

not once did i rag on dan fogelberg, I just said you arent at a dan fogelberg concert. I have never been to a dan fogelberg concert, but I could imagine it would be a pretty mellow, and somber experience. so before you get so defensive read what was written meatball......do you love me, are you playin your love games with me?

Well, well, glad you're up and running administrator.. Just have to say thank you Grayson..I know it's been a couple of weeks since the show, but the Cove was rumbling and shaking with the Rott & Roll..Man oh man, what a night it was!!!! There was some Stumpknocker magic going on for sure. We's lookin' forward to July 18th we are!!

Hello Mr. Capps. I see you have another fan in Colorado. Vail. So, I'm calling out to all those Grayson fans in CO to bring 'em in. We need that soulful rott-n-roll here. My little one still "jams"on his guitar and screams out "big fat woman". You'll need one here, if you visit in the winter...Glad to hear the Cove went well. I miss that sultry, moist, warm breeze that you create when you guys are there. It is like no other. Cheers. L

To Not Important, Are you aware of the fact that Dan Folgerberg died last winter. His shows and music weren't Rott-n-Roll, of course, but he was a writer, a poet, a man of words and feeling, a soulful spirit, now lost to this world. He was, of course, a different genre, but that was his choosing and talent. His one Blue Gr@$$ album was a completely different sound. You would not know it Was him. "High Country Snows". To defend one, why belittle another?

What happened? Is this guest book really defunct?

Grayson! Yes Sir you and the stumpknockers sounded awesome in the Hill Country Sat. night. Hope your shoulders didn't get burned from that hot TX. sun. Sure hope you can find your way out to Phoenix in the coming years. If not I will just have to cross the Mississippi. Peace, Douglas

Whoa - your show last night in Houston was one of the best I have ever seen. THE absolute best in a Yoga studio but generally speaking - one of the best. Please come back to Houston soon and we'll have a better crowd going for ya - contact the Continental Club here - y'all would dig that. Can't thank all of you for one of the best shows I have had the pleasure on experiencing. Grayson - your vocals are amazing on your CD's but live does you even more justice. Wold love to hear all of you roF**KING in the Bayou City soon!

In a Yoga studio??? You guys are SMOKIN' hot. What an awesome talent. We hope to see you guys booked at The Continental Club in Houston SOON...you would ROCK THE HOUSE.

Look, first of all there are no concerts where people don't sing along. If you think you are going to one, wake up you naive little man. Second if Mr. Capps didn't like it I'm sure he is 'man' enough to let us know. Third, you're ungratefull a$$hole should know better, your going to a great concert for relatively no money. Might be a good idee for you to bring a portable cd-player that way you can't hear the crowd go wild, which is normal at a concert, you little man.

Hey, Anybody home? Does anyone update the webpage anymore? yooooo hoooooooo..Knock, knock, knock...Wook, you home?

Thanks for . fabchannel. com/grayson_capps!! The entire live Grayson Capps concert at Paradiso!!!.. and so also I had the whole concert,(.. and not like cinderella going away at midnight! )Grazie, grazie!!

But..Is there no one else from Italy on this guest book?? Love, Letywin

Hey y'all...Grayson, Tommy, John and Josh. I am soooo happy I went to Pirate's Cove. You guys were really fantasmagorical!! There's a big, big difference in attitude between a NOLA gig and the Cove. I was beginning to feel as if it was merely my perception, but NO! It was great to see Tommy smile! Rott -n- Roll my friends!

Seeing you guys at Pirate's Cove was spectacular! Everyone in the band seemed happy to be there. Grayson and Tommy did a lot of smiling. The crowd was there and quiet *well nostly) and we had the best time! Rott-n-Roll lves, baby

Pirate's Cove was rockin as usual! Thanks for playing "Make me Smile". I love that song and do not think it could ever sound G-A-Y. (not that there's anything wrong with that)
Was lovely to finally meet THE Wench in person. She is just as cool as I thought she'd be.
Thanks for the Music Grayson, It keeps me sane. Alreadly looking forward to the next show! Peace & Love to you all.

WHOOOOOOHOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

The Paradiso concert is now on line:

All of you shut up and be somebody you twats. It's time to rock'n'roll in New Orleans.

The new album isn't coming out until SEPTEMBER? What kind of crap is that!!??

Thank ya'll for coming into this guestbook world. I love hearing all the different thoughts and opinions. It was a pleasure to see the administrator in a somewhat sedate environment In the Woods. She had the knowledge about the Paradiso last time. I personally got a kick out of all the people singing along. I had been playing every night for almost five weeks and to have a blow out like that was perfect for me. I played in Holland for a week in much more intimate settings, so for those p!$$ed off few I suggest you try to see me in a more off the wall setting. The Paradiso is just going to get more out of control in the future. I'm bringing the Stumpknockers there in late November. I had a great journey and I met some crazy-wonderful people. Keep writing in to say hello. More later. Grayson

Very good songs

Sat. night is coming on us fast..We've a piece of 8 from the El Cazador, to hang around yo wonderful neck me dear...It'll be soaking in the good karma and the magic brewing over Arnica Bay..We hears the Rott & Roll rollin in with the mist we do, and we waits with baited breath to drink a little Poison fore' we die...

It was not my intention to insult anybody, but people who act like they are alone on the planet and have no respect for other paying visitors are just plane rude! I would like to apologise for my agitated m@$$age last time, but it just p!$$es me of that a concert is dictated by people who haven’t got the decency to have some respect for other people, so sorry guys if I step on peoples toes, next time we should drink a beer together, is a karaoke bar an idée?

Wow, what a great show at Paradiso! The mood was just right to sing along, even though I didn't participate in it, I thoroughly enjoyed the upbeat mood and I never ever got the idea Grayson had a problem with it, quite on the contrary.

Thanks everyone for the beautiful night but of course above all, thank you Grayson for this beautiful night.

Haters, pardon my French, but you seem like a grumpy bunch. Rub the sand out of your, eh.. vaginas and learn to be a bit flexible. Every night has its own atmosphere and mood. The Paradiso gig was a night of beer, an upbeat mood and enjoyment. I loved it!

Grayson,
I'm from Orange Beach, Alabama. I've seen you numerous times at the Cove. I'm currently living right outside of Vail. Please, please, please, get yourself out west we all need your music desperatly out here. By the way next time your in Bama check out Moe's BBQ in O.B. their big fans and the food is pretty good too.
p.s. your music moves my soul like none other.

Jodi

Looking forward to seeing you guys at Callaghans Sunday night, its been too long.

To "Can't post without a name, uh?Alright,
You mean we're not all idiots, huh, uh, ya sure? Well I guess ya learn somthin' new every day.
Grayson's music is wonderful, his words are the sheeit and he ain't too bad to look at neither, but sometimes a little singing goes a real long way. There's a fine line between being participatory and being obnoxious, the thing is that those who are being obnoxious never really see that they're being that way. Take it from one who can spot the designated a*s*s*hole from 30 feet away, just because you are having fun doesn't mean everyone around you is. I don't know, wasn't there, haven't been able to access the video for some reason, but I do know the annoyance of having the loud drunk/s next to me and walking away sometimes alleviates the problem, but sometimes not.
I have heard it from many a musician that I am an exemplary audience member, not to say I sit quietly and studiously and drink in every moment with seriousness. There are ways to be participatory and to be respectful not only of the musicians but of other audience members, in fact often times if you do it right you spur others to have a much more heartfelt and full bodied experience. Everyone has their own way of enjoying the music and the performance, just please do realize that the most fun is when everyone is allowed to enjoy it in their own way. Enough on this.
Miss my man, Grayson, and of course the rest of you lovely Stumpknockers, see you on Friday. Ya know there's always a spot in my drive for all ya'll, pop up or down.
And, Grayson, get some rest, will ya,
Elyse

well well well. I spoke with one of the Audience members from the Paradiso, and they said the singing WAS very obnoxious. From the podcast you couldn't hear it that well. I guess we will have to bring the band over to drown out any loud "belchers". Our amps go to 11.

Hey! this aint Tacky.com. So, stop it. Grayson don't care if you sing or if you don't. New people will think we're a bunch of idiots. Is that how we want to represent the man? He knows what he's doing. I really don't know that much about the man. But I think I can gather from all the songs he's wrote, that he can handle it.

Hey Grayson

Hope you made it safely back home.
Thanks for your great shows in Holland and playing our requests at Lage Vuursche and at the Naked Song Festival.

The new songs sound great too, can't wait until the new 'Tennessee' cd is finished and hopefully we'll see you back here soon.

Mark

whats up with the euro pu**y crying about people singin along. give me a break,if grayson isnt salty about it than there is no problem. its not a damn dan fogelberg concert. every body enjoys things differently,you have two feet, move away, or heaven forbid actualy confronting the man and actualy tell him how you feel. well mabey when your nuts drop you can get it right and stand up for something, like your self!

I have only one thing to say. It was great. Mr. Capps thank you for this wonderful evening. It was nice to tolk to you and you make me happy, because you signed all my cd's and a photograf who was made in
New Orleans last october 2007 when I met you there. Nice to hear about the story's behind your songs. If you come back in november for another concert, sure I'l be there. Hope to see you again.
Maarten

Hopefully the people that were loud etc were good looking and not a bunch of fops.

A message to all at the Paradiso show..... Hello all!! I'm Grayson's drummer and wanted to congratulate you all for participating in the music. I think it's great that you know the words and want to sing as well. I guess someone got "p!$$ed off" for some reason. I guess you can't please everyone. I watched the show and thought it was GREAT!! The fact that you know the words is only a testament to the beauty of the song and also the work that's being done over there by Grayson and the management, promotions, ect. We are happy to have you in our family.
Sincerely, John Milham

Hi Gray, ever think about a Colorado gig. There is so much music here all over the place, hell, you can set up on the street and YOU would draw a crowd. Boulder is awesome and welcomes all. The canyons and mountain tops have secret little private dives full of the old hippies and true ones. They would go nuts for you and your music here. Just a thought. I miss nothing about the south but hearing you play and the cove of course. Please come to Boulder before the snowfall...I still follow your site. So, if you make plans, we'll be there. Take care, safe travels. L

Grayson, thank you for your wonderful music and your mesmerizing performance in Paradiso! Unforgettable. You definitely make me feel good, and you definitely mean something to me. You swept me off my feet! See you again. Love, Renée

I can't believe all the bickering is starting again!! The webcast at Paradiso was great. mesmerizing (I love that word) even on my small laptop. I know all the words and I sang along from my comfy recliner. I sometimes sing along at shows too! Grayson even let me on stage once to sing, but it WAS my party and I was paying HIM. Get over it! Insomnia is killing me at the moment, so maybe I'll let GC sing me to sleep if I can keep from singing along or getting out of bed to dance.....Keep on keepin' on, Wook! We love ya!

Sorry, but apart from being a rude jerk you also seem to have missed the flow of the concert.
I was standing right in front of mr Capps, less then 3 feet from him and he seemed to enjoy the concert very much. This includes the people singing.
And isn't that what makes a concert a GOOD concert: if on and off stage everybody is having a great time?
I have seen him twice now and both concerts were great with people singing along several of his songs.
yes, Graysons work has two sides, the quiet late night listening and drowning in the words and notes and the more vivid live preformances.
Whatever you might think, I think you are a minority here.

But if you ever to manage to let him play at your house for a "houseconcert" I'm willing to share the costs and I promise you I bring a good Scotch and won't sing...

with people

Have to agree on that one, come all the way from Groningen to listen to a great musician and what do we get AGAIN!! The same dome groupies like Feb. 07 thinking that they have to let grayson know that they know every singel word of the f**king songs.
Don’t you guys realize that even Grayson wasn’t amused by that $#!t! Starting to look like u have a crush on the guy. Just also wanted to thank u dumb f”#$cks for spoiling the evening.
Think we have to arrange that u guys learn to behave next time , and I know that I speak for the rest of the audience as well.

To "p!$$ed Off"....Go find something better to do with your time, you are wasting it.

To all the folks in Amsterdam, Thanks for enjoying the performance and not being afraid to use your voice. Music is great in bringing people together from all cultures. Music has no boarders or boundaries. I saw the show and thought it was great. Congrats to you for making it special.

Cheers to p!$$ed Off from Yugolslavia,
Go ahead on wit cher bad self! Sorry some of the Wailers got their toes stepped on, but better that than some other things that spring to mind.
I think what p!$$ed Off is trying to say, correct me if I'm wrong, is that most people who pay to see an artist be it in a bar,a concert hall, a roadhouse, or a church, actually did come to see and hopefully hear that artist. Of course it's encouraged to sing along with certain, sing along songs, i.e. "Poison", "Big Ol' Woman", "Grand MawMaw",and don't forget the ever popular "Copper Kettle" but most songs are meant to be listened to. I'm sure as an artist it's flattering to have people embrace the music so much that they want to sing along, but I am also sure as an artist, that they would prefer that those singing would be respectful, not only to them but also to others in the audience and keep their volume to a minimum. So to those who think it's permissible to sing at top volume, phuck you, we didn't come to hear you sing. Some of Grayson's biggest fans, have still not figured this one out and continue to p!$$ other audience members as well as the band members off with their loud, lyric knowing mouths. And, to folks like p!$$ed Off, keep on keepin' on, spew when spewing is appropriate and tell it like it really is. You phuF**KING rott n' roll.
Love to Grayson, the band, the lovely moderator, et cetera,
Yours truly, Elyse

To the Karaoke, sing-along-wailers:
Once again: "just" listen to the artist, when HE sings,
and don't ruin other people's evening.

And yeah.... talkers during a concert are
RUDE and a F*F**KING NUISSANCE as well.
ONE BIG PAIN in the A-S-S,
but "we are the champion" wailers are even worse!
You know the lyrics: GOOD FOR YOU.
Do your wailing at home, in the bathroom.

Do that nuissance trick again in the future, and you'll get paid alright.
and that's a promise.
PERIOD!

Iammefl- THNX! 7th of june, Lucky You....the venue seems totally cool. Wish I could be there too. Just have a dutch beer on me.
I wonder what the crowd will be like. After reading the other messages, apparently some people even take a nap during...(saw it with my own eyes) but I like to think this person was just hypnotized by the performance ;-) At least he was quiet, haha.
Anyway, the wait is definitely worth it so keep your withdrawalsymptoms under control for now. ENJOY next week!!

"Tell me: did y'all get paid to do the baF**KING vocals?"

Unfortunately not.


But if you're feeling generous, it's still possible to do so!
