Here's a bigger one for you broadbanders. But soon, I'll take both of these off...I can't have big traffic on this server. http://www.eisley.com/test/LostatSea_big.mov For newcomers...again; this is the roughest, most vulnerable form of a song we could present to you guys... the real version has Stacy harmonizing, but honestly...it's not totally worked out...especially with the band. I'm not even sure why I'm doing this. I think it was Ali; he said he couldn't live without this song (until the full length)...so I promised to get something up. So, make sure, as this get's spread around that you let people know. bd _________________ EisleyWebGuy "The industrialists never saw the fruit of their own labor - Post Moderism, which I now proclaim as dead.

i feel like a dork thanking you over and over, like i should try to be more creative about it after a while. but what can i do. i can't imagine any other band or family or person being this generous with time and energy. i mean, i probably would have died if i didn't get this movie, so i suppose i owe you my life. that means you can make me do your dishes, or wash your car, mow your lawn, take down those christmas lights you probably still have up - you know, typical manservant stuff. well, i've gotta go pack for tyler. save me a spot on the lawn. do you guys have a vacuum, or should i bring one? oh and i've gotta go buy an apron and a headscarf... _________________ hello. |

I think my wife might rather me do all that stuff... But, it's no big deal. We're just thankful to you guys for being born with brains and ears that like Eisley's music. Today, it feels good that somebody does. I was serious...when I said I would be adding way more media whenever WB gets that website up and running. It's fun, right? Anyway...Eisley approved of the little flick. They seemed to love it. But it's their song that makes it. _________________ EisleyWebGuy "The industrialists never saw the fruit of their own labor - Post Moderism, which I now proclaim as dead.

i just saw the big version. it seems the little choppy slicy bits in between weren't put in, they were a by product, maybe.. well i still think they're cool, and i love both versions 
tell the band thanks for letting us have this so soon, without all the final work done. and thanks to your family for sharing some intimate moments  _________________ hello. |

I said it before... but I really like the video and that version of the song. They fit each other well. It looks and sounds so sad... but optimistic at the same time. I don't know. I call it a "good kind of sadness"... if that makes sense to anybody. _________________ "If you're a ninja, every day is like friday." -Jamie M. |

yeah i got that kind of sweet sadness feeling to it, like the home movies you'd watch of someone who recently passed.. but that sounds too depressing to accurately describe it. it's terrifically amazing. _________________ hello. |

hmmm. it works great on my mac. the big one is smooth and colorful and awesome. i guess we'll never work out the differences between the two platforms... are you guys on cable? no choppiness here. sorry. But, you're totally welcome. I kinda like the juxtaposition of the ambiguous darkness with flickers of light/reality against the non-descript, bright, flurry of Chorus colors.... it let's your imagination work instead of force feeding well-known imagery (thus interpretation). Then, the little V-Fest footage is sorta set up as the literal payoff to "we finally made it" - which is tounge and cheek. Nobody "makes it" by playing a festival...(that's mainly for fun and because it was the first tape I pulled out of the giant garbage bag of video tapes) and I tie it together with a dark, flickering outro (similar footage as at the start...only leaving V-Fest) and conclude with your basic, "there's no place like home", which is perhaps literal, but...I like it so...BAM. oh. the guy with us in the dressing room is Dave Holmes. (an endearing friend/manager). The other guy is Rock from Nettwerk. He was our tour manager for that trip. An awesome guy as well.... _________________ EisleyWebGuy "The industrialists never saw the fruit of their own labor - Post Moderism, which I now proclaim as dead.

I would hope that it could go on a CD exactly like that. Even with the metronome and all. Seriously. _________________ My photography:www.jamiemphoto.com You can't spell awesome without emo...backwards! -Julie definingawesome (11:44:11 PM): Eisley shivers our timbers |

wow. Boyd, i love this video, really good, but the true magic is in this song, its amazing, it has to be on the full length or a b-side, its probably the best new eisley song i've heard for a while. wow. thanks. it even has clips from the v fest, cant work out if there is any clips from the one i was at, but its cool nonetheless. _________________ "A mathematician is a blind man in a dark room looking for a black cat which isn't there." - Charles Darwin (legend) |
