Nah. Not insane at all. Relatively reasonable prices for a quality band. Worth it to me. $20 for a total if six songs is pretty bloody unreasonable, but then, so is paying headliner price to see an Eisley opening set, which is why I'm staying home with my two iTunes-purchased Fire Kite tracks. $200 Leonard Cohen tickets were my live show extravagance for this year. I have bills to pay. _________________ INTELLECT AND ROMANCE OVER BRUTE FORCE AND CYNICISM Smokemonster |

I have bills to pay. Agreed. (Wow, I am agreeing with you alot lately!) I've already been to... 7 concerts this year, and have 3 coming up. I've never gone to that many in a year. Ever. I usually don't go to shows where the entire lineup isn't just "wow." I'm picky. The only exceptions to this is the A Fine Frenzy tour next week. I can barely stand to watch her perform... But there's Landon Pigg. |

Pricing is set by the headlining band (this is standard throughout the industry), in this case Say Anything, we have to follow. Their tour their rules. _________________ New Media Email/AIM: nico@eisley.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/nicholasosborne http://twitter.com/eisley |

I saw her open for Brandi Carlile and she repulsed me. _________________ INTELLECT AND ROMANCE OVER BRUTE FORCE AND CYNICISM Smokemonster |

It's the slightly off-beat hip shaking, odd hand movements, and hair touching/pulling/mussing thing. I mean, I can get into an awkward dancer (Lisa Hannigan, I'm talking to you!)....but it's too much. Anyway... |

That's one solid setlist! In other words, I'm loving it. The ATX date needs to get here already! No wait... Cold weather needs to get here before they get here so I'm not sweating at Emo's like I was yesterday walking to class. LOL. Too hot for October. _________________ "I cannot discuss your verses; for any attempt at criticism would be foreign to me.

Marvelous Things Invasion The Valley Golly Sandra Mr. Pine Smarter (with Max on guitar) I Could Be There For You Come Clean Ambulance Memories Many Funerals ...really? That's actually sort of disappointing. Not sure what I was expecting...but yeah. Not that. Oh well. I'll still enjoy it a lot! |

Did you want more RN or more Combinations? I'm just happy they're performing Mr. Pine and three new tracks... and no Telescope Eyes. LOL. _________________ "I cannot discuss your verses; for any attempt at criticism would be foreign to me. Nothing touches a work of art so little as words of criticism." -- Rainer Maria Rilke |

I can't wait for the endless youtube videos!!! I won't be able to make it to this tour, but I will for sure be buying the online EP. I love when Eisley tours! All the new hair-do's, clothes, songs, versions of songs, it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy, much like the holidays... haha, I may have exaggerated that a bit... _________________ You can't find love; you have to create it.

I could do without Marvelous Things, Golly Sandra, and Come Clean. And Mr. Pine, to be honest. I do understand why they're playing Come Clean though. Like I said before, I'll enjoy it. The set list just seems a bit odd to me, for some reason. They said less obscure songs...but Mr. Pine? I'd take that out in a heartbeat and replace it with Like The Actors or Head Against The Sky, since both have iTunes EPs. |
