don't worry luke, i have an idea! you see, i'll type up a nice long setlist including, well, all of the songs (some twice). all YOU have to do is say "oh, boyd, let me get those set lists out there for you. you've worked too hard."

ready? go.

I really like "Telescope Eyes" live -- all the parts seem to fit together exactly, like a perfectly manufactured box.

Over the Mountains. Hands down, no contest. The song sounds great on CD... but the harmonies live sound amazing! They send chills down the spine. And if you don't think so... you have no spine.

It doesn't get much better than hearing the lyricless chorus in concert... with the oohing and ahhing. The very first time I heard it (the very first time I saw Eisley) I was wowed.

And I really liked all the weird, noisey sound effects they used to play at the beginning and in the middle of the song. Don't know if they still do that though.

head against the sky... but that's because i've only seen them once live, but of the clips that boyd has posted, i'd say sun feet. and that's because we haven't heard a full studio version of it. so, head against the sky's my vote.

Head Against The Sky or Marvelous Things. I'll go with Head Against The Sky.
But from the videos I've seen, Over The Mountains seems pretty amazing too. I really want to see that live one day.

Over the Mountains.

Listening to it live really gives a different feel than it does listening to the CD.

Very chilling.

i definately think their best song live is either They All Surrounded Me or Plenty of Paper.
after i saw them play They All Surrounded Me live, i had the song stuck in my heard for a week (one of the best weeks i've ever had) Laughing

See... that's what I said! Kind of.

Rock on, Jamie!

Over The Mountains.

I saw them play it on the Winter West Tour in Dallas, and even though the sound guy had a bit of an issue with it, I think I melted into a puddle of happy canadian goo.

They probably will, they seem interested in the Casbah from Boyds tour journal entry.

i just saw them on friday, for eisley experience #3, and my favorite was 'memories' this time...the bridge part towards the end sounded really intense, especially thanks to weston's stupendous drumming. the first time i saw them, i think i liked "mr. pine" best, and that was the first time i had heard the song. this is also my first post of all time.
