how was Moss Eisley not an allowed band name if bands incorporating Boba Fett's name and the band Red 5 have already existed for the past two decades? is this all a new thing that lucas is incorporating?

I think there was an austrian folk metal-rap band named moss eisley that they didn't want to get confused with....

Golly, Poster


OR

the band didn't want to give george lucas the oppurtunity to sue them.

so they nipped that in the bud

i know. i saw them on tuesday night. they were wicked. was going to wear my eisley t-shirt as an ironic gesture but decided against it. so yeah they were good. not really the same genre though, unless eisley are taking a new punk-pop direction?!

Hmm, I dunno. I just went off what Boyd and them all said back at the name-changeover. I think there might even be more than one "Mos Eisley" band. Really I guess despite the genre, it could be confusing if both were to get popular, y'know? "Coming in at number ONE today: Moss Eisley! And at number two, Mos Eisley!" Laughing

eisley.

I don't even want a vague connection backwards. eisley stands on it's own...it feels like something totally different. I surely don't want to identify with a punk band - though I'm sure they're hot or the venue made them seem hot.

Juan. pm me when you have a chance.
i have beek proposishun f'da- d'yoo.
