This is the paragraph I use in the channel comments on my YouTube channel. "Come join The Greyson Chance Forum (It's Free!) greysonchance.proboards.com/ . Its UNOFFICIAL, but its where I find out a lot of "little known" or "new" information before it gets out. Info like "Summer Train", the new summer tour dates, etc. KIDS, BRING YOUR PARENTS. IT IS SAFE FOR THEM TO JOIN TOO. The only danger is that they may quickly become Greyson Fans like us. " I also use something similar when posting comments to other people's videos. So far, no one has accused me of spamming . If anyone has any suggestions as to other ways we can promote the forum, please comment here.

Is it possible to make the "page numbers" larger across the bottom, or list them 1,2,3,4,... with click-able links across the bottom to make it more obvious to newbies that there are additional pages available? Just a thought.

I didn't follow Billy Gilman's career but he was AMAZING when he performed "Ben" on that Michael Jackson special that I can't remember the name of. I remember that kid. I haven't thought about him in forever. I think he might be a couple years younger than me, but I do remember when he hit it big. 1:28 will bring tears to your eyes and a smile to your face.

Greyson's "official" website is www.greyson-official.com It is powered by Interscope. If you type in "Interscope artists", and then go to Greyson Chance, it brings you to this exact website. The other 'Greyson Chance Official' websites are just fans, I think. You guys are so great. I learn a lot just by getting on this forum. Thanks for all your hard work. Can't say who I am 'cause then I'd have to kill ya. Thanks B&W. Glad to know you are here. Many of us here are "grown up Greyson supporters & know how to find the official page. My concern is for all the kids out there who automatically go to facebook and see false "official" pages. I hope they are all just legitimate young fans, and not something else. Guess its just my "Public Safety" background. Am I being overly concerened? In that Clevver TV interview that I posted on the Unfriend You thread, Greyson says that he doesn't have any other Facebook accounts except for the official "fan one." Hopefully that will spread around, but I am sure an imposter would just say "well, I said I didn't have any others, but that's b/c I didn't want tons of fans bothering me" or something similar to try and rope people in. At least it is something though!

Dang! When I made the first post about the Facebook Imposters, I had no idea this would turn into such a Hot Topic. Or that it would become a Twitter issue. If you go to facebook and type in "Greyson Chance Official, several "Official" pages come up. I haven't seen anything dangerous yet but you never know.

No offense intended, but these other kid artists are obviously marketed to their target audience. Which is fine. But seeing this just makes me appreciate how truly unique Greyson's talent is. All these kids have some talent, but I, as an older male, would not be interested in following their careers. For me personally, hearing about Greyson via talk radio, seeing the Papparazzi vid, then on Ellen, I feel his talent and his meteoric rise is Divinely Inspired. The unique tonal qualities of Greyson's voice remind me of that special quality that The Beatle's harmonies, or Karen Carpenter's Voice had. There is something really special there that you just have to listen to.

I guess if I heard LUTD on a country station I certainly wouldn’t feel that it sounded out of place there. I think Billy Gilman was signed to Sony at 11 and released his One voice album at age 12. It went platinum in like 3mos. and then on to double platinum. For me, he is the benchmark by which I measure all young performers in terms of vocal skills. On one song, like Psalm 23, he sounds like a Vienna choirboy; and on the next, he’s pure country. Billy’s fanbase ran from tweens to their grandparents. Greyson may be the 1st young artist since Billy to have that broad of an appeal. I didn't follow Billy Gilman's career but he was AMAZING when he performed "Ben" on that Michael Jackson special that I can't remember the name of.

"greysonchancee" is not a real twitter acct. it will be taken down tomorrow by greyson's management. If this is true, I hope they can do something about all the facebooc accounts that contain the words and phrases "Greyson (or Grayson) Chance OFFICIAL. Again, my concern is for the young girls out there. Facebook needs some kind of policy against anyone claiming to be an OFFICIAL page of any famous person. And my last little pet peeve is the internet squatter who grabbed the domain name "GreysonChance.com". I hope Greyson gets control of that domain. Court cases have already been won by stars whose domain names have been held hostage & the squatters have been forced to give up the domain.

I always thought it was "New York State of Mind" because that's the way my swiss-cheese memory remembers Billy Joel singing it. Or maybe that is a different song all together. But my memory cells still hear Billy Jorl's voice singing the words "New York state of mind".
