Sydney
In Sydney, there's nothing xtra since the TBS show isn't sold out and it's all ages. You guys in that market, try to get a ticket and... you'll be set. Sure, i wish there could be something, but... you can't do a show on top of another one unless it's sold out. Bad form.
Brisbane
In Brisbane, we're going to do one of those nifty "semi-acoustic + 1 part electric" shows - (Small PA, vocals, Rhodes, Electric guitar and one acoustic guitar - no drums/bass). It's one of my favorite scaled down versions of Eisley. We tweaked this over time - trying different things. This seems to work. You get to hear the vocals really nice and loud - and feel the polyphonic contribution of the girls - sans the rhythm section. I will say, it doesn't rock, but it makes up in splendorousness. We'll try to mix it decently. Blame me if it sucks.

It's thundering and lightening - we're in a Tornado watch, so i'm goin to post this NOW while i have power!
(whooosh... kaBOOMb!!! scary storm)
ok. it's awl good now. So, i go now... to myspace to blast the news to the Aussies that overwhelmingly stated (in response messages) that they'd support a local show if we did it. We did a bit of research because promoters said they probably wanted the band to cover the short fall if there weren't at least 80 - 100 kids there... not enough time to promote it; not sure who's covering - the band or them, but... we sure hope you guys come out. thanks! boyd
