way to represent! Cool show respect for opening bands

no one is telling the whole story

what actually happened was is the guy threw the bottle and Garron leaped out of no where, grabbed it in mid air and flung it back at the guy, dead-on accuracy, cut through the dude's frontal lobe, labotomized him on the spot.

Garron felt awful but when the bobbys got there he found out the state had already issued a required labotomy for that guy anyway and he was in fact an escaped mental patient. Heralded as a hero and an unofficial state employee Garron was to be brought before the queen to receive tea the very next day. However Eisley ran into some fire golems on the way to Buckingham Palace and we all know how tough it can be to fight fire golems, even if you are a super powered family team. By the time they got the last one tea time was long over and the queen was none too happy with Garron. So they took him to the Ministry of something or other...maybe Secrets? or Mysteries? Those limey wankers change the names around all the time to confuse us, anyway, long story short, band can't talk about it, matter of national security, England's Home Land Security allowed them to finish the tour but Eisley has to clear their baggage through a hardcore screening process before they can leave or re-enter the country.
Makes trips to Ireland a real bitch.

I never heard tells of them getting "beered" (is that a word?), in Australia.

As for only going out with bands similar to them...who would that be?
Also, they get chosen by these bands, Brand New, NFG, TBS, to come out with them.
These bands LOVE Eisley! It's a small percentage of their pea brain fans that act out, and cause trouble.
Yes, it is to be expected, but the band is human. Stacy has feelings.
I talked to her tonight, she was still pretty upset about it. I told her she should have just said, "uh...no thank you...I'm still not old enough to drink." and then went on. I think her "sheesh" response probably let the jerk know, that he/she was a jerk.
The TBS guys made it known to thier fans, that they needed to straighten up, but picking up the bottle, and by sitting visibly side stage. That's how a gentleman handles it.
It is true also...Europe's culture is more of a drinking culture. The person could have been drunk, so I hope Stacy bounces back and just tries to forget it.
I will say this, it better not ever happen when I'm out on tour with them, and the day one of them gets hurt by some idiot, and I'm on the tour....there will be no mercy. Charges, and arrests will be made.
I think each venue should have video cameras of the crowd, so that charges can be made against such idiots.
bleh...anyway...tomorrow's another day. Smile

On a positive note...they have been enjoying the beautiful country, and a very greatful for the new fans, and no so new fans that they have been able to meet.

Well, obviously no one really sounds like eisley, but I'm guessing what people mean is bands like Arcade Fire and other indie bands, not so much the hard core like NFG, BN, and TBS.

Eisley should tour with Luvbeat.
I know their music is different, but that would be an awesome tour Smile

Repeating the point...
Eisley gets chosen by these bands to tour with them. Those fans should respect their "pet bands" choice for openers. But, we are talking about humans, and humans can act juvenile, and rude.
Soon...Eisley will design their own tours.
Yes, to Pilotdrift, Midlake, etc.

I think I'd die from joy over a Pilotdrift/Midlake/Eisley bill. But I like Eisley going out with these other bands, too. It forces everyone to reevaluate their boundaries. I think one of the worst things a band (or anyone) can do is to get too closed off to the world around them.

I just hope that jerks keep their beer and other projectiles to theirselves in the future.

These people should just leave during the opening bands if they don't like them and come back for what they really want to see.
