Thursday, October 26 2006 9:45 AM, EST Grand Entertainment & Music, Inc. Announces Share Retirement Market Wire "US Press Releases " MONTREAL -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 10/26/06 -- Grand Entertainment & Music, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: GMSC) is pleased to announce that it has entered into several securities retirement agreements with company officers, directors, and consultants. Grand Entertainment is finalizing the agreements and instructions to the transfer agent this week. Barring any unforeseen events, these shares should be cancelled and returned back into treasury by the end of next week. These agreements will retire approximately 43,233,334 shares, and will reduce the total outstanding share count by more than 10%. The company is continuing to meet with other shareholders and trying to work out similar agreements in an effort to reduce the outstanding share count as much as possible. President, Fred Berlin, stated, "As we announced earlier this week, I met with several key players last weekend and discussed future corporate strategy for Grand Entertainment . We are all committed to increasing shareholder value, and the retirement of shares is one of the best ways to accomplish this goal." Berlin went on to say, "This reduction is a great start, but it is by no means the end of these actions. We were forced to issue more stock than we originally intended in our effort to ensure proper funding to grow our company. This was unfortunately necessary at the time; however, we are now making it up to our shareholder partners. We believe with our ongoing efforts we will be able to reduce the outstanding shares by a larger percentage in the upcoming weeks. As always, we will keep the investing public advised of these decisions." About Grand Entertainment & Music, Inc.

BY the way, news out about retiring approximately 10% of shares. I think that's the cause of the volume coming through now.

Well, we closed unchanged for the day and up 6.25% for the week. Obviously nobody is selling and by looking at the charts who can blame them. The chart looks like a rocket the only think it needs is a match to ignite to the sky.

Typical behavior. This will go back up. MMs will bring this down to pick up cheap shares. I'm still holding. Expect to see some good PRs coming up this week.

Grand Entertainment & Music, Inc. Offers Update on Acquisition Proposal Tuesday October 31, 7:00 am ET
MONTREAL--(MARKET WIRE)--Oct 31, 2006 -- Grand Entertainment & Music, Inc. (Other OTC:GMSC.PK - News) offers update on recently announced proposal to acquire an independent record label.
ADVERTISEMENT On October 25th, Grand Entertainment announced that it had signed a letter of intent to purchase 50% of an independent U.S. record label. Over the weekend, executives and consultants from both companies met to further discuss this acquisition. Grand Entertainment is pleased to announce that it has completed its due-diligence and has offered its verbal commitment. Attorneys from both companies are now working together to finalize all the necessary contracts.
Once completed, Grand Entertainment will own 50% of Lost City Records, a label based out of New York. The label has a long operating history and has over a half dozen signed and award winning artists. Completion of the deal will give Grand Entertainment access to the label's 500+ song catalogue, as well as their studio and equipment.
"This is a rare and exceptional opportunity to expand our company and our musical talent," stated president Fred Berlin. "I know this deal may seem rushed, but I have known the executives from Lost City for a long time and as I stated in our recent newsletter, I have kept in contact with them over the last twelve months." Berlin went on to say, "Both sides are committed to this deal and we hope to have everything wrapped up by the end of next week. I want to reiterate that this acquisition is a non-share, cash only transaction and will not dilute the shareholder equity in any way. I look forward to finalizing the deal, and I can't wait to start announcing Grand Entertainment and Lost City joint ventures in the near future."

Excellent News! I think Lost City Records deals with alot of underground Hip-Hop/Rap. Thats a great addition. Almost all rappers that are big now started off in the underground scene.

That's the reason they din't want to except the offer of .02 per share from who ever offer it. With this acquisition we might hit the 10 cent range. This is great news I don't think anybody is going to be selling anytime soon.
