 Post subject: starbucks loves eisleyPosted: Fri Feb 29, 2008 2:14 am 
Well, they did this morning when I stopped to get my coffee on the way to work. Clad in my Eisley shirt, covered in a v-neck sweater (making the t-shirt work appropriate), I stopped my Franklin, TN Starbucks for a little coffee when the barista helping those customers standing in line says, 'I love Eisley. Seriously, they're one of my favorite bands.' To which I say, 'Same here.' Then as I get to cash register to pay for my blueberry scone and tall coffee, the cashier says, 'You like Eisley, huh? My roommate used to have a crush on all those girls.' Glad to see that in this instance Eisley love Starbucks, and, at least at my Starbucks, the baristas love Eisley. _________________ "The term is ended; the holidays have begun.

I was on drive thru and in between cars i was like "hey sweet eisley!" then i went back to cashing out people. could have been a mistake but im pretty sure i knew what i heard  _________________ Honey, your feet, they're not as pretty as you think. |

This is not because of my undying love for Eisley but I think their CDs should be sold at Starbucks more than any other band.. Seriously.. _________________ www.timkimdesign.com www.myspace.com/timkimdesign change is happening. |

Hmm... I thought Starbucks has a set music playlist for what they play in the store... so if they played Eisley we would have known about it? I really wish they would though. It would make one good thing about the company...  (i'm not really liking them lately, or their crappy tasting drinks. so tired of it.)

There was an article in the New York Times a few weeks ago about how the quality has suffered at Starbucks because of they're trying to expand too much. The former president is taking the reigns again to try and turn it around. Lots of luck. I mean you figure when they start putting them in Targets, you know " somethings not right! " Besides they have surpassed Walmart in the percentage of employees without basic benefits. _________________ Mike=] |

(you probably heard about this because i saw it all over the news the next day). This was because the former president wants all the focus to go back to the coffee and culture and image that comes from that. Good publicity stunt for sure! _________________ Honey, your feet, they're not as pretty as you think. |

Least of all music from a band as unique and inventive as Eisley. If they must continue to push overpriced CDs on the hipster masses, they should stick with the unremarkable beige pop-jazz crossover crap they've been shilling for the past couple of years. I was crushed when Radiohead decided to sell In Rainbows through Starbucks; if Eisley did the same I might not survive. _________________ INTELLECT AND ROMANCE OVER BRUTE FORCE AND CYNICISM Smokemonster |

It's evident that franklin loves eisley, because I went into the franklin starbucks today with a eisley shirt and got the same responses! |
