 Post subject: Question for the agesPosted: Wed Nov 14, 2007 5:44 am 
I'm bored right now. I have about three hours until my next class so right now I'm just sitting in the library with my laptop surfing the web. I was just looking through the forum and came up with this question: What would Eisley sound like if Chauntelle, Garron, and Weston wrote the band's songs? BTW: Doesn't Chauntelle have any solo work? |

For me, it depends on if Garron and/or Weston sang. I think it might sound a lot more like they do now than people might think. But I guess that's not as fun to speculate about. 
Boyd has said that Chauntelle has revived her songwriting in recent years, though I don't think she's written much. I wouldn't be surprised to see more songwriting contributions in the future. Of course, this sounds like they don't make their own stellar parts already ... _________________ My photography:www.jamiemphoto.com You can't spell awesome without emo...backwards! -Julie definingawesome (11:44:11 PM): Eisley shivers our timbers |

Chauntelle's "solo" work has come in the form of collaborations with other artists. "One More Day With You" is a great example. _________________ INTELLECT AND ROMANCE OVER BRUTE FORCE AND CYNICISM Smokemonster |

I tried playing Memories with my pencils and I can't seem to keep the hi hat going while he does the other stuff, do you know what I mean? Ya I know, I'm weird. |

Weston actually has a third arm he hides under his shirt most of the time. He's so skinny no one really notices. _________________ INTELLECT AND ROMANCE OVER BRUTE FORCE AND CYNICISM Smokemonster |

More so on Room Noises, admittadly, but there we are. _________________ She is handsome, she is pretty, she is the girl from Belfast City, she is courtin' one two three, please won't you tell me who is she?

Challenging in that it's not quite like everything else out there. _________________ My photography:www.jamiemphoto.com You can't spell awesome without emo...backwards! -Julie definingawesome (11:44:11 PM): Eisley shivers our timbers |

That's not his arm. _________________

I wonder if Sherri and Stacy will make a grab for more money if they start to get really popular. I hope this comment doesn't break up the band/family. _________________ Power is only pain It’s probably better to have him inside the tent pissing out, than outside the tent pissing in.

I don't think the money thing will ever happen. That's the difference between Eisley and almost any other band... they're family. _________________ Mike=] |

I tried playing Memories with my pencils and I can't seem to keep the hi hat going while he does the other stuff, do you know what I mean? Ya I know, I'm weird. The tambourine just plays a 3:2 pattern with the big beat. in six eight time, one TWO three FOUR five SIX one TWO three FOUR five SIX The four in the tambourine would line up with the snare drum hit. Just practice keeping time with your right hand, (123456) and add in the tambourine bit by bit. Other than that, it's simply a compound time rock groove. _________________ EisleyForever wrote: you're A-list in my heart! MAKECOLDPLAYHISTORY |
