First, an explanation of this thread's title:
Well, I just discovered Eisley the other day, and was extremely excited to find out that they are to play at Bogart's here in Cincinnati on Wednesday. I talked to a few forum members, and they were already graciously offering me rides. However, today I realized that my family has to leave for a Thanksgiving Day celebration at my brother's house in Chicago on Wednesday evening, so I won't be able to make it to the show... Sad

I was really looking forward to going, but that's the way things go sometimes. Hopefully they'll be coming through this area sometime next year, then I'll be able to make it. I suppose that one positive thing is that they'll probably have lots of new material to play by then, and will get to play a longer set too. Anyway, I just thought I'd share my sad little story.

And now, a little note to Eisley
I just wanted to let you guys and girls know that I'm very glad to have stumbled upon your music. It's encouraging to know that there are other teenagers and young adults out there who are making a strong effort at creating unique, intriguing music, as opposed to the polished garbage that the big corporations spit out to the naive masses. Being a musician myself (with many of the same influences), I'm impressed with how you're using your talents, and I'm excited to see what the future has to offer for you.

Well, I've rambled on enough, so I'll close this up. Thanks again for the wonderful music, and I hope to see you at some point in time!

Later,
Ben

Thanks. By the way, I didn't mean to sound so pathetic in part one, heh... I was just having an overall bad day yesterday, and finding out that I couldn't go to the show didn't help at all. I'm just glad to at least know about the band, as there will be plenty more opportunities to see them in the future. Smile

That's too bad you couldn't make it man, we could have hung out at the show. Maybe I can get an autograph for you and mail it to you.

Hey Jeremy... Thanks a lot! You don't have to go through the trouble, but whatever floats your boat. Smile The least you can do is to just let them know how much we appreciate them (and that they have a new fan here that was heartbroken over not being able to make it Sad Wink). We can just hope that they'll be coming back through at some point in the future. Then we'll definitely have to hang out at a show. That'd be awesome... Anyway, just have a good time, say "hi" to them for me, and let's hope that they'll get a good enough audience that they'll want to return sometime. Cool

Crying or Very sad The tickets are sold out now anyway (of course, they weren't when I was planning to get one), so it seems that if by some miracle I was kept here Wednesday evening, I still wouldn't be able to go... Crying or Very sad

Maybe if Molly had planned better, she would've gotten you an extra ticket as a surprise.
Stupid Molly. She's mean.

Heh, now that's just going a bit far... Wink Razz I'm sure I'll still have to go to Chicago, so at least I won't have to be sitting at home just 10 minutes from the show. Now that would be pure torture--much worse than at least being 6 hours away. Shocked

If by some twist of fate you do get stuck in town, I recommend the following:

a) go to the show anyway and look for scalpers - someone might sell you a ticket for only slightly above door price.
b) check with alternate ticket agencies. Sometimes the primary ticket agency is sold out, but that's because someone else bought 20 tickets they are trying to unload.
c) try your darndest to either find someone with an extra ticket or find some way to get on the guestlist.

That's all I've got....

Yeah, I was thinking of a few such options... Thanks for the advice. Let's hope for the the best--the impossible! Cool

She's just fooling with your head. Her name is Molly. I don't know why she calls herself Jeremy. That's her boyfriend.
She's a confusing person. Just gotta get used to it.

Okay, thanks for clearing things up (at least I'm assuming you have, and not thrown another complication in the works... Wink). Very Happy
