Have yourselves a merry, merry Holiday. I snapped off a few Blackberry
pics a few minutes ago. Everyone is in the kitchen working. Some are less
likely to be snapped and I won't snap bf's and the likes. Sherri made a
pecan pie with rum also... no, like - just the fake flavoring. But I got drunk
off it anyway. Must have been the sugar.

There is so much to talk re: the band, songs, records, plans, etc. but
unfortunately for you guys - my new years resolution is to keep fans in the
dark... and to keep Eisley out of public eye from now and forever.... so
yeah, from now on you'll hungrier for what's next - like when an album
comes out or the band actually peeps out of their Tyler tomb for a tour. jk.
You know me better than that.

Cheers and Guzzel Eggnog! bd




It's a standing joke. we run out of "luxury towels"
and get so frustrated. They tried to fix the problem.









I might come back with a silly suprise clip later. Possibly more pics if i get
bored. Now I should go help the girls. cya!

I've been blessed this Christmas to listen over and over to a jillion new
eisley song demo's. Quite a plethara. I refuse to comment... that is - i
refuse to engage in hype. Omy.

Wanna see my background sceens on my monitors?





Still encoding a Christmas song for a clip. Will post today. bd

DRUMMER BOI - intro
Apologies for the bogus flash file. New cs4 Flash. I apparently imported 2
QT's to the stage (thus, the double audio). But this time around I also
uploaded to YouTube (see first file). Anyway - this is one of those lo-fi,
shot from the back of the room video clips. Sorry. The audio is lame...
very not an impressive production. Also the rhythm section is fairly sloppy;
ah well - one quick rehearsal and you try to get through it. Either way, we
had fun with it:

YouTube Version Note: i just uploaded at 12:45pm on 12.28


In case u haven't been to eisley's YouTube page since - for newbies - there are oldbie-vid's: here .

QT Version (flash - on our server)

I'm actually having a problem viewing the video Sad
It will start immediately while still loading, then once vocals kick in it starts over, but continues to play from the first time...
Did that make sense.

Anyway, happy Christmas, everyone!!

Wow! That was a pretty fantastic version of Drummer Boy! =D I loved it, and I concur, there needs to be a download made available =P

And holy dang, that was a lot of drummers.. but I guess that makes sense for a song called Drummer Boy.. Darren King is awesome.

Eisley should totally make a Christmas album! =D

The video did that weird audio/video synching thing for me too but then I just let it play the whole way through and started it from the beginning when it was finished. Other than that issue, I loved the video! It was cool seeing most of the family on stage together... in this case musical talent definitely is (at least partially) genetic.
