 Post subject: Tour...Posted: Wed Mar 02, 2011 9:45 am 
So, I know we already have a thread like this, but with the album there's a new sound. At this point, who would you like to see Eisley tour with? I think Beach House would be perfect. I wasn't initially sold on Teen Dream--I liked a few songs quite a bit, but didn't really get into the album as a whole until recently. |

Sleeping at Last, Young the Giant, Good Old War...I don't know really. Way to hard to pick. |

With the new songs added to the setlist (aka upbeat melodic rock and sophisticated mid-tempo laments) they have a good enough expanse of styles to play with all kinds of bands, but I'm holding out hope more headline runs than opening slots this go around. That said: Headline: Company of Thieves makes too much sense right about now if I had my druthers, but I don't think their album's done yet. Another run with Vedera would be a nice treat too. I'm not down on male fronted bands, just can't think of any or solo artists, that would match up well, and be legit openers As Support: U2, why not swing for the fences, I have no desire to see Interpol in a Stadium, but I think Eisley's ready! Death Cab if and when they tour. If Ryan Adams tours the 3/4 material, it would make sense to pair them up given his wide range of styles and that albums take on upbeat modern rock and mid tempo ballads. _________________ yup, that's my name. FOR YOUR RATING PLEASURE: 4 LIKE Buttons, 1 NEUTRAL, 1 VEXED, 5 DISLIKE buttons. LC > FB           
 = personal fave  = Eisley fans should dig it

The Decemberists just finished up a tour. It would have made more sense, I think, to go with them than with Rooney (there were quite a few Rooney fans in the Chicago audience who were mocking the girls and calling them "stupid" because they talked about cupcakes). Really, they need to go tour with a band that's more melodic and less hard core or upbeat than the bands they usually open for. _________________ Taylor | @thbrogan http://inconnumag.com |

They could get Jeremy Larson to go with them and Stacy could open w/ some of her solo stuff! |

I'd love Eisley to have openers like... Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin Margot & the Nuclear So and So's Mates of State The Envy Corps (again) Minipop Freelance Whales Smith Westerns (They cleaned up their lo-fi sound slightly on the recent album. Also, they have some incredibly cute songs! But this is probably the longest long-shot ever. 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 |

Oh, I'd love Christie as an opener and them headlining, but I think a tour with peers could be a little more helpful. A lot of people have forgotten about Eisley, it seems. |

How about Phantogram? Eitherway, I do like the Company of Theives idea! |
