Angry at Rolling Stone ripping on Eisely for being imaginative,
I felt it was high time to forumlate an antibiotic for us...

More imaginative music:

This was recorded in Austin the day the band did their instore at Waterloo.
It's just an unedited, live, acoustic performance using a Rhodes, a bass,
an acoustic guitar and a tambourine.


And just so you'll know, since the RS article came out, web hits have
nearly doubled... it's 9:30pm central time and eisely.com has had 1,340
hits today. 15,388 in 2 weeks.

Also, I moistened up the voc's on this lo-fi, bedroom recording:

Awesome news on the hits, we appreciate your(and all others involved with Eisley and Eisley themselves) interaction and participation in the forum despite the scale of the expansion. The links sound great by the way.

ahh shucks; but, I swear I'm not doing this to get pat's on the back...(I'm
doin this to get "Pat back".) Wink

No. I do this stuff because, if I were a fan, which I totally am, I would
want somebody to do this stuff for me.

that's just a hard fact to get over... i mean it's refreshing to see someone running a band website with that attitude.... most of them dont care...

have you read the pitchforkmedia article where the kid joined the avril lavigne e-team for a week and they pretty much didnt do anything for all these teens that were suckered in to promotion work for avril lavigne. they were promised exclusive mp3s and stuff, and i heard the most they got was like a voice greeting from avril lavigne saying how they were helping record sales.... i don't know it was a well done, amusing article but it was sad too, because it shows how artists and the people that work with them are really losing touch with the fans... they build a fanbase when they know the artist is the next big thing, but after you've bought the album and they've got your money in their pocket, they run... so i just think its so nice that you do these things.


oh, and my thing on rollingstone worked finally. im excusememister.
