I wouldn't say The Fray is similar to Eisley. I mean, if Eisley put out the same song 100 times, then they would be like The Fray. The fan bases, at least, are completely different. _________________

The fan bases, at least, are completely different. Pretty true, but the fans of the two groups seemed pretty easy to tell apart at the show I went to. I couldn't, however, tell a difference between Eisley and Gomez fans. I don't want to go into any further detail, because I don't want to get into stereotypes. _________________

Well, it helped having that Matt kid do Typical on American Idol around the time MTV was pumping the Backwards Video on M2. They followed that up with a lot of touring and it paid off cause their record was solid, even if they didn't have another single do as well as that one. Just goes to show, you are just one hit single away from success in this day and age. _________________ yup, that's my name.

I dunno, Weston is pretty big. I think he's bigger than everyone on Mute Math. _________________ My photography:www.jamiemphoto.com You can't spell awesome without emo...backwards! -Julie definingawesome (11:44:11 PM): Eisley shivers our timbers |

Irrefutable proof that Mutemath is bigger than U2: Mutemath has a song in Rock Band. U2 does not. Which is a shame, really, because U2 songs would work really well for the easy setting on Rock Band. Bassist? Play eighth notes. Guitarist? Your solo is four notes on one string. Singer? Talk about Africa during the instrumental bits. Drummer? Just look pretty. It's too bad Rock Band can't simulate having a roadie under the stage cue up all your effects for you, and you don't get extra points for wearing platform shoes and stupid jackets. _________________ INTELLECT AND ROMANCE OVER BRUTE FORCE AND CYNICISM Smokemonster |

I do remember a couple guys at the Portland MM show that were going all out for Eisley during They All Surrounded Me (at least the specific memory is during that song, I'm sure it was the whole show, though). I remember them jumping up and down and yelling each "NO" together. Actually, I think they were louder than Stacy. |

As far as a SA/E tour - I don't see it happening as from what I have read SA's would be sooner since the album is in the can and even a video and Eisley is not even half done recording their album. Maybe it will be a short set of dates - Eisley opens for SA when they play in Texas and neighboring states while still working on their new album? _________________ I am Torgo.

Dr. Dre's The Chronic is one of my favorite albums (regardless of genre). I just got into G-funk recently and have also dabbled in N.W.A. and Da Brat. Why? Do you have any suggestions of better or more obscure G-funk artists? _________________
