I read this article in Borders today. Then I found it online. I sorta feel like I should post this under Press, but Boyd only has 1 post there. http://www.americansongwriter.com/current_issue.htm Allie _________________ You see how I go to pieces, that I'm laying on the ground like the sky is so heavy when I could be brave. - The Innocence Mission Myspace |

I don't know. I think they might be Bubbilicious. Good article, though. Except...I realize that the band's name used to be Moss Eisley, and I totally dig the reference. However is any else going crazy over the misspelling? It is Mos Eisley! Sheesh. I guess I'm just a nut, afterall. JD P.S. I'm glad they dropped the Moss. It just sounds better this way. _________________ "Well, hopefully that's our job, to strap rockets onto everything." - Adam Savage, Mythbusters |

I'm pretty sure it was purposely spelled Moss... I don't think it was a misspelling. _________________ "The revolution starts today, not tomorrow." :: got g-Love? |

That is not what I meant. I realize the band spelled it Moss, but in Star Wars it is spelled Mos. That is what I meant. JD _________________ "Well, hopefully that's our job, to strap rockets onto everything." - Adam Savage, Mythbusters |

Oneword.MossEisley the extra "s" was an attempt to avoid litigation with George Lucas. It didn't work. _________________ So there I go, Without my no. Only a yes And passive aggressiveness. |

JD This is gonna look wierd quoting myself, but I was looking way back to when Eisley was being advised to change their name from Moss Eisley. Apparently the misspelling really was on purpose. I mean there were posts back then stating that it was spelled incorrectly from the Star Wars location. I got the impression the misspelling was the frist step towards escaping litigation, but then they decided to go all the way.
