November 20, Boulder, Colorodo

An afternoon live radio performance at KCSU - the #1 college radio
station in the country.
The did an acoustic set, but without the Rhodes, Bass guitar
and tambourine. (only Chauntelle's Larave')
She kept having trouble with her headphones and was moving
around while trying to sing
I had zoomed without knowing it...I was concerned about her
headset. But it made for some interesting shots.
Chauntelle and the polyphonic instrument.
That's the entire group - or at least the guys that were there
while Eisely was in the studio. They were super nice, and the
guys in the listening room were swooning while Eisley was
performing live, on air.
The Fox Theater is in the middle of this college campus; lots of
coffee and cool sandwich shops... I really loved it.
Here's a not so great image of inside.
And now for the boring shots of the band while playing their set.
What a cool venue. The Fox Theater
And the people were friendly...and they had their stuff together. It was a
great night for hanging out; Thanks to Bleach and Holland for showing
such support. Great times. Also, got to meet Jay from the forum and
other friends and other fans who aren't on the forum, but saw Eisley at
Red Rocks.
Still, it really didn't feel like the Boulder crowd totally "got" eisley... until,
of course, Jesse Lacey came out and sang the second verse of "I wasn't
Prepared" like he has the last 3 nights. Those girls go wild. But other than
that, the Boulderites seems to gloss over; There was applause and
stuff...nobody was rude. But, I have to say, it might have been the least
responsive audience thus far.
That's ok....and, Eisley's show might have had something to do with it, in
all fairness. The performance were pretty tight overall, but there were a
few vocal dips - and the mix seemed to lend itself to discrediting the
vocals, overall. Sherri's mix was shrill with no middle....Stacy's was
volumesque and often on top when it should have been on bottom. I
thought the drums sounded great...and globally, it was very cool. There
are so many dynamics that go into a show.... oh well, we'll always
remember Red Rocks - their best show of the Coldplay tour.
I look forward to Eisley headlining their own tour - I totally realize that
most everyone was there to experience interactive "ROCK" - not
experiencial, creative, sensitive, soft rock. Isn't Casey amazing on slide?
I WILL post pics from last night, of course. You can see that I'm slowly
starting to catch up....but keep in mind - I am generally a miserable
failure and hacking my way through all of this. 
ONWARD to Kansas!
From now on, when I get the images up, I'll just post them at the top.
Thanks guys. Boyd
