Atlanta, GA. July 1, 2005. Nick's Olde Bar and Grill

Twenty-One and Up

Hey Everyone. It's 3:33am; we just got back to our Comfort Inn after loading out around 3:00am from Nick's Olde Bar n Grill. I'm terribly sleepy but am committed to spewing out something to mark tonight's episode in this short journey. There's only one "first" us headlining tour in their history.

I can honestly say taht Atlana's 21+ market is smaller than some of the other 21+ markets we've been to. I'm not sure why I thought Atlanta was a very Eisley friendly crowd. Well, not to say tonight's crowd wasn't friendly. They were.... under 200 total. Somehow, playing with Brand New, Snow Patrol and later - NFG seemed like it would have been more productive in terms of reaching a solid foundational eisley fan base...

then again, it's the beginning of the 4th of July too.

All that aside, the show was great. Aside from a few boggles or missed power chords, the set was tight and wonderful. The medium sized croud seemed to like the music/band. I hope I have good vido up.

I am too sleepy. More in the morning. Thankyou for coming -

Unfortunately, we won't be back in July w/ Hot, Hot Heat. Eisely has a wedding to sing at. But the shows before and after, they shall play indeed.

goodnight.

Don't be discouraged...as you said, the timing and the 21+ venue had a lot to do with the light crowd...definitely hit up the Roxy or Variety Playhouse next time
