Hey guys, gals,

I was talking to my mate Stuart during Physics about the band, more specifically the logo, cus i was busy tipexing the Eisley E onto my school bag (think of it as free advertising...). Anyways, he asked why the dot is in the top part of the E. I said, ummmm, i'll get back to you!

So, question; Why the dot in the E?

hahaha i thought this was discussing the topic in eisleyblog titled " . "

but as for the dot it probly has a really deep intellectual meaning like.... the outer circle is what we as boardies idolize, but they inside of the "E" in question there are also those that they idolize... radiohead










im totally just kidding
i hope everyone knew that

Actually,
it's probably just design. I should ask Boyd, but I feel pretty safe in saying it was just design.

As a designer, I'm saying that's probably what it is, too. A little flavor.

im not sure at all on this, but if anyone remembers the old moss eisley logo, that dot was there, and i always visioned it as an eye or something. then when the name was changed to eisley, and the logo was rotated (and the E was taken away) i guess the dot was just left. but who knows, maybe im just a fool.

so, really, the best bet would be design, to "spice up" the E a bit?

The old MossEisley logo utilized the dot to make it look a little like a face. When the band decided to be Eisley, the logo rotated, lost the extra "E," and the dot remained.
