The song was played beautifully....but F the NBA..the Players refuse to stand at attention or place their hands over their heart...then they break ranks before the song is over...They are all millionaires because of the hard work of so many that came before them, you would think they would have some respect..NBA = Nothing But Assholes
The 14 year old ME has a total crush on this kid (I’m 68🤪), he gives me goosebumps! I’m SO EXCITED he’s come to GH, I’ve been watching it since I was 8 or so!
I just love how he plays the violin and moves his body to the music. Has very good body movements. So very talented. Like him already. Thanks Gio keep up the great work.
What an Amazing Handsome Violinist, So talented. I have been watching him. Ever since he first came on GH for his cousin Brooklyn wedding, When he played. Here the bride on his violin. I thought that was the most beautiful music. Gio keep doing what your doing. Making Great music playing the violin. Thank you.
My!! He’s so wonderful!! I’m so glad GH brought him on. I hope he stays for awhile. I’m not sure how they’ll work in violin solos for him. But they better figure it out!
