I know this is a dumb question for myself to be asking, but i was wondering whats the correct way of saying the bands name. I just assumed it was "eyes lee"? I just want to get it right instead of just assuming. Embarassed

The funny thing is, this is the only reason I remember my first conversation about Eisley. My friend was telling me about a band called Moss Eisley, and he kept misprouncing Eisley, and I knew the proper pronunciation from the Star Wars reference, so I corrected him.

The event almost made me want to look online, but alas, it took about five months for that to happen.

For a future reference to all who do not know how to pronounce Eyes-Lee:

Watch Star Wars

Yes..I pronounced it wrong from the start until my friend said "Uhmm..what did you say"..and then I was corrected..but now I cannot think of how I pronounced it before...yes and I am quite the fan of Star Wars but I totally got jipped on that whole referencing to Mos Eisley...cause, well, I just don't remember it a'tol...oh well.

My little sister pronounces it that way but I think she only does it to get on my nerves.
