SoS Concert Review: Marcus Foster

No...don't do it...don't smile. ::phew:: That was close.

Today for your reading enjoyment, Amber and I give you our “Official Marcus Foster Concert Review”….because we are professionals.  And by professionals I mean that we got on skype last night and re-lived our night and maybe fangirled a little bit again.  So, if it’s a serious review you are after….well….this isn’t it.  If you are looking for a “review” that touches on word vomit, short pants and the B-52′s then sit, stay and read.

Where we try and get down to business…but we don’t. At all:

Li Li: Marcus Foster concert….GO
Amber: Let’s get to business!
Li Li: yes– is it wrong to say that that show was my fave so far out of all the guys??
Amber: NO! It was kind of my fave, too. But Marcus is kind of my fave so it’s understandable. He just gets up there and brings it. Like every damn emotion in the book comes floating to the surface.
Li Li: yes! he doesn’t filter…which i totes love…it makes each show so different
Amber: Plus, he was the only one that didn’t recognize me, which made me happy. Was afraid I’d have to go incognito!
Li Li: hahaha…i don’t think he reconizes anyone….even peeps he knows
Amber: No, not at all. That makes me happy. I like being able to fangirl with him not being able to remember.
Li Li: I totally word-vomited on him though
Li Li: i just couldn’t stop myself

Amber: Uh, me too. He actually asked me if I was okay. ::facepalm::
Li Li: that. is. awesome
Li Li: i need a freaking filter
Li Li: i whispered in his ear “I blogged about you today”…..like that doesn’t scream “creeper” or anything

Amber: No. No you didn’t!! STFU!
Li Li: yes. yes i did
Li Li: talk about ::facepalm::

Amber: It’s okay, I asked him if he googled himself. C’mon Amber!
Li Li: and then i totes didn’t back you up when you asked if I googled myself
Li Li: i was like, uh, no…..hahahaha

Granny panties and smells:

Amber: He is kind of touchy feely, which makes Amber happy.
Li Li: um, yeah with the touchy.
Amber: I liked it.
Li Li: he put his hand around my waist a couple of times and all i could think about was that I was wearing those tights…and the waistband came up really high on me…and I kept thinking, “he must think I wear really high waisted underwear”…..he was probs like, wellhellothere granny panties
Amber: No, no way. I’m dying over here.
Amber: Oh well, I got my “uninitiated by Amber” hug and I was happy as can be!
Amber: Cloud 9 baby!
Li Li: word
Li Li: i got to smell him
Li Li: wait.
Li Li: is that weird to say outloud?
Li Li: or type outloud?
Li Li: whatevs

Amber: Whatever, I take a deep breath anytime I’m around those guys.
Amber: Not in a creepy obvious way.
Li Li: ::fistbump::….well, duh
Li Li: no one wants to be caught sniffing someone else….that’s just bad form
Li Li: he smelled like man. and cigarettes

Amber: and sunshine. and rainbows. and beer.
Li Li: yes. yes. and yes. is it getting hot in here?

Young fans and kick ace shoes:

Li Li: okay now srsly…what about those two little girls in the front row??
Li Li: how freaking cute were they??
Li Li: all singing along and shit??

Amber: First off, I was shocked, cause Marcus music does not seem like it would hit home with the teeny bopper crowd.
Amber: Then I wanted to go and hug them for actually waking up and recognizing good music as something other then Miley Cyrus!
Li Li: yeah…but they were like 9. you know their mom probs has his CD on repeat in the car EVERYDAY and had no choice but to become fans
Li Li: little teeny cute hat wearing fans….in the front row
Li Li: if I had had a few more beers I probs would have been pissed that they got such good seats

Amber: Their mom is #normal. I do that to my kids.
Li Li: #duh
Amber: And yeah, how the hell did they get those sweet ass seats. Where the hell were we? Oh yeah, the bar. #whereelse
Li Li: word….I was fangirling over seeing @PangeforPrez and finally meeting my ShinerTwin @tracyvanhorne
Amber: I love, love, LOVE seeing all the ladies. I was fangirling a little on @Ashnanphillips, partly because I want all of her shoes.
Li Li: those shoes were effing BRILL
Amber: Oh and everyone was waiting for me to speak in hashtags. #theywishtheywereascoolasme
Li Li: #doubleduh #hashtagsoutsideoftwitterFTW

Read about shushing, porn and more word vomiting, after the jump…..

You came all the way from where??

Amber: What I think is hilar is that none of the Brits, even though they been all over the U.S. have no idea where anything is!
Li Li: i don’t either…and I live here
Amber: I mean, don’t tell Marcus that Oklahoma City is close, cause he may take that hug back.
Li Li: hahaha…he totes thought you came from miles and miles away
Li Li: i was like, dood, she was in a plane for like 40 mins

Amber: I was all kinds of ready to shush you if necessary.
Li Li: i was waiting for my shush
Li Li: i guess only Sam brings out the shusher in you

Amber: #truth
Amber: I’m too busy word vomiting on Marcus to think about shushing anyone. Someone needs to be shushing me.
Li Li: i was too busy being 1st hand embarrassed at you telling Marcus about SoS to shush you
Li Li: i soooo wasn’t drunk enough for that

Amber: No, he was so sweet. I seriously doubt he has been on a computer since then.
Amber: Which is cool. It’s good to have anonyminity with at least one of the 3.
Li Li: he was like, “what’s it called? Love Shack?” and I was like, yes, go to LoveShack.com and you’ll find us there
Amber: You know damn well that LoveShack.com is probs a porn site or something.
Amber: Great, now we REALLY look like creepers.
Li Li: whoops
Li Li: and by whoops I mean WIN

We actually talk about the show…..for a bit:

Li Li: maybe we should talk about the actual show….since he did sing there for awhile and not just listen to our word vomit and let us take pics with him
Amber: Yeah, since you gotta go to bed that might be a good idea.
Li Li: well, it effing made my night that he opened with “You, My Love”
Amber: Yes! And can I say, he hit it with my fave… Circle in the Square… GAH!
Li Li: that is totes my fave song of his #truth
Li Li: i mean, i may or may not have listen to that song to and from work
Li Li: on repeat
Li Li: it might be on now
Li Li: #normal

Amber: And the new song Bones has “Amber” as one of the lyrics. I about lost my shizz right there.
Li Li: I don’t remember hearing that part. ;)
Li Li: i think that my fave song is You, My Love on his EP but live, my fave is Kiss Is a Knife
Li Li: he always plays it differently….and he gets soooo into it

Amber: YES! If he wouldn’t have played that one, we would have had to have words after the show. LOVE Kiss is a Knife cause it is NEVER the same!
Amber: The way he just starts jamming out is so cool. That’s what makes him my fave.
Amber: Sorry to Sam and Bobby, it’s just the truth.
Li Li: i love to watch his face when he sings that song…it reminds me of ::ahem:: other things
Li Li: yeah
Li Li: i went there
Li Li: don’t judge

Amber: You went there
Amber: And I agree
Li Li: yes. yes i did #noshame

Mood Lighting and the B-52′s:

Amber: Okay, on the Marcus show, I was kind of sad that the lighting sucked.
Amber: Made it SO hard to see him.
Amber: Felt like I missed a lot of the cute faces.
Li Li: yeah. it was dark as shit in there
Li Li: and not that sexy mood lighting shit either…it was too red
Li Li: no spotlight
Li Li: lighting FAIL

Amber: No, like the I don’t want to see your face lighting.
Amber: And the venue seemed decent enough.
Amber: The worst part… there were lights. They just weren’t on.
Li Li: yeah….the space was pretty cool. there were NO bad seats
Li Li: right?! they were just there. not being used. #annoying

Amber: I did like the bar. I thought we had some pretty good spots. Got the side view, which worked well for me.
Li Li: yes, I LOVED where we were
Amber: You know what we need from Marcus now? A live CD.
Amber: Kind of like Bobby has.
Li Li: and yes….totes agree
Li Li: let’s bring that up in a post. he’s bound to see it when he goes to LoveShack.com

Amber: LMFAO… LoveShack… what are we? The B-52s?!?
Li Li: LOL….TIN ROOF…..RUSTED

Deal breakers, aka man-pris and where Amber comes out as “easy”:

Amber: I do have to say one negative thing…
Li Li: uh-oh….what??
Amber: Imma need Marcus to buy his pants about an inch longer….just sayin’.
Li Li: OHDANG!!!!!!!!!!
Li Li: you totes went THERE
Li Li: but…i agree

Amber: See, I’m a girl. I notice these things.
Li Li: shush…i won’t tell, if you don’t
Amber: Please don’t. He could have been wearing man-pris or jorts and I’d have been happy!
Li Li: um…man-pris??
Li Li: that’s a deal breaker for me
Li Li: i don’t care how well you sing
Li Li: or how soft your hair looks
Li Li: i’m out

Amber: I’m too easy I guess.
Amber: TWSS
Li Li: hahaha…you beat me
Amber: #twinners
Li Li: i mean, let’s be honest here…he knows they are too short
Li Li: we wouldn’t be breaking secret new info here
Li Li: they were probs $2 at the salvation army

Amber: Probs got them when he hit the Salvation Army earlier this year. Remember the tweet.
Li Li: oh yeah
Li Li: good membering
Li Li: hahaha….member-ing….sounds dirty

Amber: YES! Love it!

  1. Now I’m getting all fangirly!!! Hilarious post, ladies.

    I’m going to see him Thursday in Boston with my sister (she thinks I’m crazy, but we’re family). The venue is hilarious, like a place I went was I was 21 and made out at the bar with a guy. (not happening now, hubs would not like it). So, I’m curious to see how it goes. I loved that I may be able to talk with him and get a pic. Wish I knew someone else local that was going and we could secretly squee together.

    Anyway, loved that you guys had fun, makes me just get giddy for Thursday!!!!

  2. Yay! I made the blog!

    And, um, Amber…I totes wish I was as cool as you. #duh

    And for the record, as Marcus’ #1 fan, “You, My Love” is on both his EP and his Live album. “Kiss is a Knife” is only on his EP, not on his Live album. Just FYI. ;)

    @TxLiLi I was so excited to see you too!

    Stupid work calls. *grumble*

    • ::fistbump:: you are his #1 fan to keep track of all that. ;) I was just saying though that Kiss is my favorite song to hear live. Like in person. Not on the live album….well….cause I don’t have the live album. Nor have I even seen it. #badfangirl

      • Ah, I gotcha. You have seen his “Live” album because it’s the one he sells at his shows. As in, not his iTunes EP. Does that make sense?

        I mean, it’s titled Live, but it isn’t really live. I think he’s just toying with us.

      • Duh, LiLi…

        The Live Album (that’s not really live).

        http://shackofsoul.com/marcus-foster/albums/

        You make me smile.

  3. OMGeeez! I am still ROFLMA! I love you two so hard! My fave thing about coming to these concerts is …shhhh! don’t tell the guys.. really the social aspect involved! Don’t get me wrong, I love me some live music, and Marucs Foster has become one of my new favorites, but it’s great music and great people that make the whole event a complete #WIN!

    Thanks for the shout out! I was completely fangirlin’ to see you both again and meet @tracyvanhorne and @pangeforprez as well! HAHA, especially after I called @tracyvanhorne #awkwardpantz… ;) ask Tracy.. but she ended up being #Iloveherpants to which she replied..”I know! They give me a cute booty right?!” *eye roll* What fun girls! Oh! Almost forgot! Amber, we can talk shoes any time you want!

    • Ummmmm….. Ash, I’m pretty sure I don’t say booty….. is this like Mr. Roger’s Neighborhood blog I stumbled upon? I thought I came to LoveShack.com? And for the record, those pants make my ass look faaaaaantastic!!!! (sing it when you say it, for real) I had such a good time meeting all you lovely ladies! I can’t wait until the next meet up…. Ash, please bring those fabulous silver heels from your twitpics…. I NEED to borrow them. Please & thank you! <3 Amber and Lili (shinertwins!!) are the two best ladies evaaaaaa!! Hey didn't someone take mine & Angie's picture with Marcus…. I wanna see!! Love all you ladies so hard! (oh yeah I'm talking to you Angie hehe)

      Love always
      #Iluvherpantz Tracy

      • Love you babe! =)

        And you’re right! Somebody did take our pic with Mahcus. Imma need to see that nao.

        And I snort-laughed at “Mr. Roger’s Neighborhood blog.” Bwahahahaha!

      • Dearest #SnatcheroftheSassypantz, Bring those pantz back biznatch! :P I was trying to be respectful……. so yeah.. #shutupinurface! And what silver heels? We need to discuss this but not on their blog.. it’s dedicated to the fantabulouness of Marcus Foster.. oh and the other two.. what are their names again? ;) Sorry! After seeing Marcus perform, I only have ears for him when it comes to this ‘britpack’ of boys..

        Ash

      • Ash, #Iloveyoulongtime

      • It might be me that has said pic….i might be emailing it as I type this. okay. not really, cause i would need four hands for that….but I’m gonna email it right….now….

  4. Ooooh! And I almost forgot to tell you guys. At his Nashville show, Mahcus actually played the keyboard! It was an epic moment. I don’t remember what the song was, but I’ll be sending you those pics, hopefully this evening. LOL

  5. So you guys liked the Prophet Bar? Minus the lighting anyway… I couldn’t make it to the show – but had heard that it was very “intimate” – love that! Great recap – you girls are a hoot. Had to look at the shoe blog Ashnan….cute! I’ll be back!
