So the show was really good. These girls have amazing voices. they sing just effortlessly with beach boy quality harmonies. shocking. Also their lyrics are WIERD!! There was one song about people being frozen and dying that they did that isn't on the album. And another song influenced by a sci-fi book that one of the girls read. I mean how many girls do you know that read sci-fi books?! And then write a cool song about it!!? Very strange, but very cool.

only problem was they took the stage at like 11:45, and White Man, my gf, and I were at the place since 8:30ish. So it was a long wait.

We ran into Ben Gibbard of Death Cab. I wanted to kick his ass, and my gf wanted to cat fight with Ben Gibbard's gf. A couple months ago when we saw ben kweller, we had VIP passes, and Ben Gibbard's gf was like 'Get lost, you guys aren't VIP. This is for Death Cab family and friends only...' We just told her to fuck off :lol

Anywho, Eisley is really impressive to see and their new album is pretty strong for it being their first major label release.

Next outing, the mighty return of the Hot Hot Heat!!

Did Apple sponsor their tour or something?

*rolleyes*
:lol I think they had apple stickers on almost every guitar. And they were carrying around a G4 Powerbook before the show.

It was even more amusing to badmouth Ben Gibbard standing ten feet away than it is to badmouth him from a distance. It was a quality of satisfaction that I could only liken to chugging the first giant americano in the morning.

Really good show. The vocals were outstanding. The nachos, however, needed a bit of work.

I lost 3 years of my writing on an Apple. Ben Gibbard has caused me to listen to shitty, shitty music for the past too many years. Two sworn enemies in one night, and it still turned out to be a good show.

Thanks element... White Man... Thanks!
I missed their Houston show because I had a then sick dog on my hands. :(
Glad you guys were able to make this one.

I need to find a place to pick up their CD. I've been to a couple places and they don't have it. I'm going to do some calling around today and if nothing, I'll order online.

Were you mean to them when you tried to get back there? Or was that the first thing she said without even telling you? If you didn't do anything, wow, what a snob. What did Ben Gibbard say when you ran into him at the Eisley concert?

We were sitting in the VIP section right before ben kweller took the stage, she walked up to us and was like 'i dont think you belong here...' We were just sitting there.

I didn't talk to him. I doubt he would remember me.

Check Best Buy. I saw a lot of copies at a Best Buy in Arlington, Texas, so I'm sure you'll find it in Houston.

I wish we still lived in the days when I could challange a man to a duel, then I would demand satisfaction from Gibbard!
