	Ali.Vegas	I love your playing. Makes me think of a like um... can't explain..just a really good scene. I can see it in my head when I listen to it but I can't describe it. :[ but it's wonderful. xx   Posted by Ali.Vegas on June 14, 2006 - Wednesday - 7:09 PM [Reply to this]

	Mrs. Leonor D.Sosa 1933-2009 Amber Sosa	Wow your playing is wonderful!! It very relaxing!   Posted by Mrs. Leonor D.Sosa 1933-2009 on June 14, 2006 - Wednesday - 8:11 PM [Reply to this]

	Mrs. Leland Chapman	yes! victory! i'm not the 100th comment... i'm the 4th! awesome! your music reminds me of the good/great times i had with my brother. i miss those days, and they shall never return. you bring them back, atleast in my memory. thanx.   Posted by Mrs. Leland Chapman on June 14, 2006 - Wednesday - 9:22 PM [Reply to this]

	*¤.just joanie!.¤*	You have a good sized fan base Grant, and we are all waiting for your CD to drop!   I bet that you probably already know about this, but I am goin' to throw it out there anyway!(hehehe) There is a program that we used at college, which would record what you played and spit written sheet music of it out of the printer...I do not know the name of the program...but I do know that you run the keyboard through the computer...and no more talk about dieing! THAT is to scary for us!    Posted by *¤.just joanie!.¤* on June 14, 2006 - Wednesday - 9:44 PM [Reply to this]

	♥Loyal♥eNiGMa™	You are amazing.  Simply amazing. ^_^  When the CD comes out, can I get an autographed copy? *grins* Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze? ~Jami   Posted by ♥Loyal♥eNiGMa™ on June 14, 2006 - Wednesday - 10:24 PM [Reply to this]

	Loria	just gorgeous, grant.  i added a comment to your main page, but i thought i'd add one here as well as this is more your music page.  please check out vienna teng and Mirah, both amazingly talented young women that i think you'd enjoy.   Posted by Loria on June 15, 2006 - Thursday - 1:34 AM [Reply to this]

	Mana-Mei	I never knew that there was this side of you. I am really impressed and love you even more! ^_^ I mean as only a fan can of course. Your music is absolutely breathtaking. Since I have found it, I love to listen to it while I write. You keep me inspired to write and to continue the practice of my own piano playing. I was schooled as a child to play but could unfortunately never finish my lessons. Perhaps I should teach myself as you have. I have already begun to try some ragtime pieces by Scott Joplin and in time, perhaps have them perfected. Thank you Grant!   Posted by Mana-Mei on June 16, 2006 - Friday - 8:26 PM [Reply to this]

	Iaom	Absolutely incredible...  words can not describe.  I'm glad I found this site.  I hope this album of yours will be purchasable soon, it would be a treasure to have.  I wish you the best of luck with this awesome talent.  ~Matthew   Posted by Iaom on June 17, 2006 - Saturday - 10:25 PM [Reply to this]

	Katherine is lame Katherine Avant	I never had piano lessons in my life, but for some reason when I was younger, I still thought that I could play. So I would sit with a dinky little tape recorder and record my crappy playing for my mom as Christmas presents. I don't think she ever really listened to them.. because I really wasn't that good. I just think that it is amazing that someone coould learn to play so well, never having had a single lesson.   Posted by Katherine is lame on June 20, 2006 - Tuesday - 1:13 AM [Reply to this]

	Bellatrix	Wow! I can't believe you have never taken lessons. That is truely amazing. Your music is wonderful and thanks for sharing it.   Posted by Bellatrix on June 21, 2006 - Wednesday - 12:13 PM [Reply to this]

	∞ ॐ £1SΛ ॐ ∞	Your music is so very beautiful.... your wife is so lucky to have someone so talented and real and who appreciates what they have in their life... and who focuses on the good instead of complaining about the negative, that positive energy really shows through in the music.. you feel it when you listen. Keep writing and playing and doing what you love!   Posted by ∞ ॐ £1SΛ ॐ ∞ on June 25, 2006 - Sunday - 10:14 AM [Reply to this]

	Julia	Well, you're just multi-talented!:)  Being a piano teacher though (don't you think you should learn to read notes?) LOL I started out playing by ear and still do when I have the time, I'm just not very good at it.  PS What show are you on?  Just kidding.......it's my favorite.  I even watch the re-runs. Julia   Posted by Julia on July 12, 2006 - Wednesday - 12:38 PM [Reply to this]

	Marie Byrd Marie Byrd	Your music is so lovely and dare I say haunting. I just had to say. I'm eagerly awaiting the release of a cd from you. Keep on writing and playing.   Posted by Marie Byrd on July 15, 2006 - Saturday - 5:14 PM [Reply to this]

	Your Neighborhood Toyota Girl!	I can definately tell what your inspirations are - your family. i guess because as i listen to it, i get the warm fuzzy feeling, and i relax and i think about my loved ones, my puppy, my family back at home and my happy life. when someone can feel what you feel - you know you are a true musician. keep it up.   Posted by Your Neighborhood Toyota Girl! on July 20, 2006 - Thursday - 2:43 AM [Reply to this]

	Miss Mary	You're music is absolutely beautiful...   Posted by Miss Mary on August 6, 2006 - Sunday - 10:27 PM [Reply to this]

	Lucy Lucy Brott	Hearing your music is awesome..... and I thank you for sharing it with all of us. It's obvious that there are so many others that feel the same. More wonderful, is reading this personal info. I love to learn about people.... what they're about, where they come from, and what inspires them. This blog post very much satisfied some of my curiosity about you! I too, am very much looking forward to seeing a cd being out there to purchase of your amazing work! Playing for & from emotions is truly one of the best ways to be YOU. It's a great way of expressing yourself, through your beautiful talent... and also a way to "escape" at times, I'm sure, as well. Listening to these songs, the emotions are honestly felt... and at the same time, it's great music to sit back and "escape", for me too. Thanks so very much again, for sharing... I look forward to hearing more! *** Hugs from TX *** =0)   Posted by Lucy on August 23, 2006 - Wednesday - 5:42 PM [Reply to this]

	ang Ang Merrick	My daughters and I were playing around the T.A.P.S. page and came across yours and your music.  We haven't heard music so beautiful in quite a long while.  We look forward to the CD and will keep looking for more clips to clur us in to what's ahead.   Posted by ang on September 3, 2006 - Sunday - 4:42 PM [Reply to this]

	Nicole	I really didn't know you played piano, Grant...that's awsome.  So do I, but I've been taking lessons for years, I can't believe you taught yourself that well.  I make my own songs, too. =)  Anyways, I really enjoy listening and when you make that album I'll buy it for sure, your pieces are really beautiful. Oh yeah, one more thing...you might remember me from somewhere... =þ DragonCon or Penn State, mmhmmm!  (Crazy people from Ohio that love you.)  Hahaha, keep up the great work!   Posted by Nicole on October 8, 2006 - Sunday - 5:03 PM [Reply to this]

	Mary Mary DeRose	Grant I have been playing since I was 10 years old.  You have SO much talent! I haven't played for so long......it inspired me to play again.  Your songs are beautiful...I just love them. Mary    Posted by Mary on October 18, 2006 - Wednesday - 1:15 AM [Reply to this]

	Myspace Sucks-Go to Facebook Michelle Steele	Wow, there are so many different sides to you. Nice to see someone outside of the TV box and see what else they can do. I love the show,  I get kick out you on there.  Still trying to figure out why Brian is back on though, but oh well. I am in MI and we have the 4  seasons here. I love fall, there is just something in the air in the fall. Like the calming before a storm.  Anyway, keep sharing, we love to hear your music. And keep smiling, we love to see you happy!   Posted by Myspace Sucks-Go to Facebook on October 21, 2006 - Saturday - 12:46 PM [Reply to this]

	Erin ǤƉ Erin Walsworth Moore	Hmmmm....I wonder if some wonderful machine exists that will put down what it hears onto paper, as a way to preserve your music for all time.  It's great that you are recording now to keep it alive in the world, and it would be fabulous to keep it in writing...When I see music on paper, it is poetry to me....I can hear it by looking at it, in the way it was intended by the composer....I love Mendelssohn, Songs Without Words, because music is meant to be communicated on its own, and words can be good sometimes, but they are not necessary to the message of the music itself....your playing of the piano does this, and I appreciate you.   Posted by Erin ǤƉ on November 8, 2006 - Wednesday - 5:32 PM [Reply to this]

	Marco	Can't wait to hear the rest...awesome work! You have a real gift of capturing emotions...   Posted by Marco on November 12, 2006 - Sunday - 7:01 PM [Reply to this]

	アナ	I know it's kinda been awhile since this blog was first introduced, but I just wanted to let you know that your music means more to a lot of people otherthan something that's pleasing to hear. I'm a musican and been playing the piano since I was 4 years old, roughly the time I was going deaf and before I had ear surgury to be able to hear again. And having the piano helped me to re-teach myself to hear things. I sent you an email back around Easter of this year, and I just wanted to re-post it to show how much your music impacts the general public. "Date: 09 Apr 2007, 17:32 I just wanted to let you know that you have made an impression upon people yesterday on Easter. I work for a hotel (Best Western) and I had my laptop with me and I decided to play some music minus the rock/alt. So I went to your profile and started to play the music and for about 2 hours, every customer that came up to me asked if I was playing a CD and if they could buy it (if it was in stores) and I told them it was on line and I didn't know if it is for sell yet. But they liked it all the same and I thought I would let you know. Give some note of confidence within your music. Keep the faith, AD Mantzouranis (Best Western, Porterville Inn, Porterville, CA 93257) " To this day, I get emails from those customers asking for the web site, and I do give it to them, and they resend an email thanking me, when actually, they should be thanking you for having the guts to even put it out there for the public. Granted, I haven't worked there since the beginning of May, but I still talk with customers that got my email address and I keep up with new music and whatnots. Keep the faith Grant, you have inspiried all of us, and don't think otherwise. You are very talented and gifted. Ana Mantzouranis aka Shortie PS, too bad that we can only give the max of 2 kudos, should be able to put a gillizion or more lol.   Posted by アナ on July 27, 2007 - Friday - 7:51 PM [Reply to this]

	DanYELL ツ	WHAT the..? Why arn't ppl believing that thats you playing? How odd. Your a fartknocker but not enough that you'd put someone elses tunes up and claim them as your own. Silly folk.

	Becky Ayers	Grant, as I have always told you, music is your "thing". Ghost Hunters will always be a great show and all, but you were born to be a musician. God gives us all a "gift" and music is yours. Don't ever give up on your gift. :)   Posted by Becky Ayers on September 20, 2007 - Thursday - 2:07 PM [Reply to this]

	Leese	I love your music! It's really beautiful. I will be standing in line for a CD WHEN (not IF) you decide to do one! Not only that, but I really like your artwork, too.

	Stacey Stacey Christine Smith	Hey Grant, I Love All Your Music And It Is Simply The Best !   Posted by Stacey on September 20, 2007 - Thursday - 8:03 PM [Reply to this]

	Barbi	I love your music and I'm glad, as you said, you don't have lyrics to force people to see it 'your way'. Most musicians I know that write for the piano are the same way. I don't think truly good piano music needs anything else. Keep up the good work!   Posted by Barbi on September 20, 2007 - Thursday - 8:38 PM [Reply to this]

	Maria Maria Childers	Beautiful music! You are so talented!   Posted by Maria on September 21, 2007 - Friday - 1:13 AM [Reply to this]

	Carrie	Thanks so much for everything you do. Not just for the music (which is beyond awesome!), but also for being so real and honest with everyone. There just aren't that many people out there willing to do that anymore. And thanks for the FAQ's, too. Now, when people ask me about you, I can refer them to these for their questions!! lol Keep up the good work, and God Bless!   Posted by Carrie on September 21, 2007 - Friday - 3:43 AM [Reply to this]

	.	Listening to your music is like reliving my childhood and I think of life events. My Dad started playing when he was young and played by ear...didn't take lessons at all. He played the piano a lot in the house while I was growing up. He made a song for my Mom and for me and each of my sisters composing music is his passion~Every song he has made are all in his head, every single note, just like you and anybody who can do that are musical geniuses in my book. And you Grant, are one of them.   Posted by . on September 21, 2007 - Friday - 9:10 AM [Reply to this]

	Orginal Platypus	Grant, I don't normally post that much but i have to say I just love your music, it really speaks to me and makes me think. I like music that takes me somewhere...your music does that for me. Good luck with the CD, I will be one of the first to get it..or at least download it from Itunes :) Danielle-   Posted by Orginal Platypus on September 22, 2007 - Saturday - 2:59 AM [Reply to this]

	Susan loves Jared Padalecki	Hey Granto, I love the music and if there were a few more drawings, like the one I saw for the first song, it would be awesome. If you are ever asked to violate your artitic integrity, tell them to forget it. I love writing poetry and I , like you, do not need anyone to validate how I am feeling. Thanks and can't wait for wednesday night's premier of Ghost Hunters, Susan   Posted by Susan loves Jared Padalecki on September 22, 2007 - Saturday - 7:02 PM [Reply to this]

	Stephanie Stephanie LeVeque	Your music is so beautiful, Grant. I have also never had a lesson (and was strangely about the same age when I started playing around on the piano) and I can relate with the whirlwind of emotions that can surge when playing and all feelings, thoughts, and musings flow straight to your fingertips. Piano music is such a stress relief, and I look forward to all the stories and memories that flicker through my mind when I hear such a well written piece, which is what yours does to my mind! I see autumn, I feel breezes, I see clouds rolling by, I remember smiling faces and glances that connect two souls...thank you for writing music that instills such joy in my soul :)   Posted by Stephanie on September 23, 2007 - Sunday - 5:05 PM [Reply to this]

	Kelli	i find it interesting to see some of your responses to the aforementioned questions......in similar q & a's i've read with other musicians, similar responses ensued....i think it denotes truly gifted musicians, from the rest of the herd.....like with the guitar----you can listen to steve vai, and you don't need lyrics.....the emotion is expressed by how he plays....keep up the amazing beauty......~namaste~kb   Posted by Kelli on September 24, 2007 - Monday - 4:16 AM [Reply to this]
