 Post subject: eisley SF show reviewPosted: Wed May 14, 2008 6:50 pm 
wow...just wow. Probably the best eisley show i've been to and the best show i've been to in 2 years. It seemed like the kicked the intensity level up to 11. Garron jumped onto a 6 foot amp to get the encore going! seriously. wow _________________ http://www.facebook.com/thismirage http://www.last.fm/user/thismirage http://twitter.com/thismirage |

I'm a long time fan, but unfortunately I hadn't seen them in a couple of years. Tonight was wonderful. They sounded great, and they were so into it. Not that their live performance had anything wrong the previous times I saw them, but they rocked it tonight. And what a set. Me and my sister were actually making jokes on the way to the GAMH about yelling out for both Mr Pine and Lady of the Wood, thinking there was no way we'd get to hear either one. We were wrong. We got both. Thanks Eisley! |

WOW!!!! Im not sure were to begin. It was the absolute best show I have ever seen them play!!!!! The crowd was fantastic! The band were very surprised at the turnout which was great and the crowd response to every song was loud and everyone cheered and clapped and sang. The sound at the venue was superb. Mark did a really really great job with the band sound. Him and John Alderman are a great team!!!!! I am pretty sure when Boyd posts on the show he will tell u it was one of the best ones. I was quite moved. As for stage presence. It was the best. Garron was running around and he even went and stood on this wooden side riser thingy and everone cheered him on . It was very cool. Sherri was all over the place too. All their voices were spot on and they were into it. My buddy Danny got some fantastic shots. Boy do we got shots. soundcheck and after show, hang out shots and comedy shots with the band and boyd and more!!. i will get him to share them with u all soon. There was so much more that went on but i don't have time to tell. i am pooped. off to bed.  _________________ TRUCK STOP SHOWER GIFT CERTIFICATES FOR EISLEY!!!! COME ON! |

Tonight's show was definitely amazing! Their stage presence has gotten much more intense, which is most apparent in Garron's and Sherri's performances. Though there were just a few songs I wished they played but didn't. It's kind of sad knowing that they won't be able to fit too many of the classics into a limited amount of time. Maybe someday they'll do a headlining tour with a two-hour set. |

I had a great time. The band put in noticable extra effort. It was real fun talking to Boyd as always. Met some boardies. Was able to get a few good shots:

Good shots, Dat! Sounds like a fun time. It'll be my 31st show when they play on Wednesday, but I'm still excited about it. _________________ My photography:www.jamiemphoto.com You can't spell awesome without emo...backwards! -Julie definingawesome (11:44:11 PM): Eisley shivers our timbers |

I decided to not bring my camera because I wanted to enjoy the show and Dat was standing next to me most of the time but he JUST left because his memory card was full. But that was pretty rock and roll. _________________ Boyd wrote: That's not rock and roll... that's just gross. |

I got a lot of videos and the sound quality is actually better than what was coming out of the speakers.  I'm sure the sound was better on the floor, but I was in the balcony right next to a speaker so I couldn't hear the vocals that well. But I can hear them in the videos, which I'm uploading right now. I believe some people next to me were filming with a more professional camera and they got an interview with the band before the show, so I hope they post what they got.
This is the only picture I took (besides meeting them after). 
Chauntelle is so fun to watch because she gets really into it. Oh, and at one point a bottle cap landed on the stage and when she went to kick it away, her shoe flew off. Sadly, I didn't capture this on video. _________________ I know how I was born and I know that I have no choice.
