I was completely unaware of any of the bands that opened for Eisley. I heard of Brighten but never heard them. After the show in San Diego I am huuge fans of them now. Simon Dawes included. Blake pretty much rocks on the guitar. & I totally high-fived Taylor. Ha. That was fun. |

Last night, after the show, I saw the singer, and my friend asked him what his band's name means. He said they just wanted to have a name, and so they came up with that. His name is Taylor. He was a cool guy. Thanks, that clears that up for me. |

Simon Dawes and Brighten opened for Eisley in Toronto at the beginning of April. They're great musicians. Their music isn't completely my type of music, but they're definitly talented. |

I read somewhere that there was a Greg Dawes in the band whose female cousin's name was Simon, and they found that amusing or something like that. I'm not sure if that's true or not, I can't remember where I read it. |

Also, it was pretty cool for Blake to dump water on everyone in the front. I totally bought both their CDs (even though they don't capture the awesomeness of seeing them live) _________________ ...the language confuses like computers refuse to understand how I'm feeling today...

It's good to know his name is Taylor now, I used to just point at him and yell "Simon Dawes!". He found it amusing though...I think _________________ sweetheart your sugar is candy drunk like whiskey wine |

Awesome band although the high energy of their live show is almost the complete opposite of their mellow recorded counterpart. Thus, I much rather see them live than listen to their EPs (but i did buy both of them). _________________ http://www.nicholasvenaglia.com |

I've asked the guys numerous times what the REAL meaning is...and still I haven't gotten a straight answer...Stu (the drummer) told me it was from a book that one of them had read, Blake (lead guitarist) told me it was a random name they thought of...I swear...those boys need to agree on a story!! But they are awesome guys!! I can't say enough good stuff about them! _________________ Hailey K
