 Post subject: eez-leePosted: Sun Dec 02, 2007 6:53 pm 
The checkout clerk at Whole Foods tonight noticed my Eisley shirt and said "Oh, I love Eisley". She pronounced it eez-lee. I thought of correcting her but there wasn't a way to do it smoothly. So I just let it go. 
I've never had a stranger notice my shirt or hoodie before.

I think I probably pronounced it similar to that when I first started listening to them. They'll learn

Sounds like the nickname of a few people I know in college. |

i was at school the other day wearing my trolleywood eisley shirt and some girl came up to me and was like "OMG I TOTALLY LOVE EEZ-LEE!! their new cd is awesome!" and i was like "i feel the same way, except for the fact that you pronounce it "eyes-lee." and she was like "Wooooops. i've been pronouncing it wrong for a while now." _________________ together again like the beginning it all works somehow in the end the things we did the things you hide for the record, it's between you and I. |

I've never had a stranger notice my shirt or hoodie before. how unprofessional of her... Mind you, I reckon only about 40% of workers at my local to work Tesco are professional in their manner. I would agree that that is pretty funny. _________________ 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?

I don't see how they even get "eez-lee." It was obviously eyes-lee to me when I saw it. _________________ www.kailahandler.bandcamp.com |

I would agree that that is pretty funny. unprofessional? really? I wouldn't think giving someone a compliment on their musical tastes is unprofessional. especially for the standards of a retail checkout clerk. I see gossiping and talking loudly to other employees as unprofessional. taking interest and engaging with the customer should be, if anything, encouraged. |

My mom calls them "The Eisley's". (she thinks that is their last name) I keep correcting her but she keeps calling them that. |
