In the Trust Tree: The Night of No Regrets — A Four Part Series — Part Four: Um…We Have Regrets
Okay. Enough about the show. I mean, we all know what you really want to know…what happened after?
Did I hook up with that tall bartender? (Sadly, no.)
Did we go through the meet and greet line. (Duh.)
Did we end up regretting anything about that night? (Um…YES.)
Want to know about our regrets? And possibly what could be Amber’s most creepy revelation yet?? READ ON.
We left off last time discussing Marcus and his playing the shit out of his set…
Finally a Drunk LiLi, Regretting the Dancing and General Merch Table Shenanigans with Marcus
Amber: even at the merch table, i mean, he was on fire moving stuff
i was like, no way, not the same guy
it actually made me a little nervous
i was like, i have no idea how to handle this
LiLi: lol
the eight beers helped
at least for me
at that moment
everything was beautiful
and nothing hurt
Amber: hahahahahahahaha
LiLi: sorry
sometimes i like to quote pretentious authors
Amber: thank goodness all the cakeballs were gone at that point
LiLi: lol
Retro-Lee
came up to me at one point
to ascertain my drunk-ness
and i guess she didn’t like what she saw
because she told me to stay away from the cake balls
LMFAO
Amber: BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!
that.is.awesome.
alright, since we are talking about the meet & greet line
i think i need to bring up the dancing
LiLi: the dancing
yeah
i will go ahead and say
i regret the dancing
i always do
Amber: okay
i regret the dancing too
LiLi: i don’t know what the fuck my body was doing
i know it *thinks* it was dancing
but in reality?
i’m sure people where like
uh
should we call 911
that girl might be having a seizure
Amber: BWAHAHAHAHAHA!
um, my dancing
not much better
i def think i look amazing in my head
in reality
that is doubtful
LiLi:http://gf4hm.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/party-hard-pic.jpg
Amber: EXACTLY!!!
a picture has never represented me so well as that one
thank goodness none of the guys saw us
or did they
i’m gonna pretend they didn’t
it’ll make me feel much better about that night
LiLi: lol
i’m going to pretend that i never did that part
screw anyone seeing me
i just didn’t do it
deny, deny, deny
now
can i talk about the meet and greet?
cause this time
we had chatty marcus
and i have to say
I APPROVE OF THIS
Amber: YES
LiLi: he bumped us up in line
he was all, NO
just come up here
DON’T WAIT
with his outside voice
it was kinda awesome
and then you bought him out of merch
and we all had to go home empty handed
Amber: he did not complain
at all
he was like really
one of everything
i was like, duh YES
LiLi: well, well, well money bags
actually
i spent mine at the bar
whoopsie
i kept trying to talk to that tall bartender
and he kept bringing me beers
so i paid for them
Amber: i just remember i had a bunch of ones
and some how i brought up that it looked like i was going to a strip club
LiLi: OH YES
LOL
you did
or that you were about to do laundry
maybe both
Amber: and he seemed very excited about the strip club
he was like where?
are we going now?
LiLi: BWAHAHAHAHAHA
DAMMIT
i missed that part
Amber: do they have strip clubs on yelp?
LiLi: my dumbass asked about his shoes
Amber: i missed that opportunity
LiLi: HIS SHOES
why do i say stupid shit to strangers?
Amber: LMAO
those $300 shoes looked like they had already been through hell and back
LiLi: i mean
i had him right there
willing to discuss strip clubs
and i failed
i failed to ask him the most important question
“would he do a live reading of some marcus fan fiction”
i shall never forgive myself
Amber: DAMMIT LILI
LiLi: so maybe this ISN’T a night of no regrets
Amber: i have the best (only) Marcus ff ready to go
on pdf
on my phone
FAIL
LiLi: whoa there creeper
let’s not advertise that
hey marcus
i keep a pdf of a story where you bang a chick
LMFAO
oh
i’m sorry
make love to her
Amber: no
the damn author pulled it before they got there
it was a lot of talking and possibly some 2nd base action
LiLi: i LOVE that you know that
Amber: i was sad
LiLi: pfft
on top of the clothes stuff can be hot
Amber: hells yes
LiLi: lol
hi
i’m in eighth grade
Amber: what kind of girls does marcus think we are?
first
the porn site
then
i suggest a strip club
now we are talking about fanfic and over the clothes action
LiLi: uh
what kind of girls does he think we are?
uh
awesome ones
duh
Amber: of course
what am i thinking??
lol
LiLi: well
i would like it noted
on record
that i could have made not one but TWO dreams happen last thursday (LiLi edit: yeah…TWO Thursdays ago)
and i failed at both
1) have marcus read marcus ff
and 2) finally touch the holy grail
aka sam’s hair
i FAIL AT LIFE
Amber: gah
LiLi
i am crying all the tears for you right now
LiLi: me too amber
me too
The Great Poster Debate Continues and Our Hopes for How this Chat is Read in the Van
Amber: i need to ask you this
LiLi: uh oh
Amber: what did he write on your poster
LiLi: BWAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA
which time?
he tried 3 different times
Amber: lmao
LiLi: and kept throwing the drafts on the floor
Amber: oh yeah
LiLi: the final one i got said
Amber: BWAHAHAHAHA!
LiLi: ”lili, youre screwed dude”
exhibit A
Amber: OMG
BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
i was looking at mine
LiLi: and there were ink blobs ALL OVER
so now
the poster is one giant ink blob
yeah
Amber: i had that ink all over my arms the next morning
LiLi: it was the best.poster.ever
what did yours say?
let me guess
Amber: well, after i had sam translate
LiLi: ”love, sam”
Amber: cause i am pretty sure a 5 year old could have written it better
it said
dear amber, i love you, sam, xx
fuck
asshole
exhibit B
LiLi: see
Amber: then also tons of ink blobs
LiLi: you always get the love
i get “see ya”
or “youre screwed”
Amber: but then he called me an asshole
so i don’t know…
LiLi: meh
i love a lot of assholes
like you
for getting love on your poster
hahahaha
i’m kidding
kinda
Amber: well, the asshole thing was my fault
cause i was giving him shit for his crappy handwriting
and asking why he wrote fuck on it
i shouldn’t question sam
lesson learned
LiLi: hahahaha
see
so he didn’t call you an asshole
::sigh::
one day
one day i will get “hi lili. here’s my signature. now STFU”
Amber: i love how the posters are like our thing now
we can’t go without our little message from sam
LiLi: i can’t NOT get one
Amber: via poster
me neither!!
LiLi: i have them all hung up
and it’s funny to see the messages progress
Amber: YES
it’s like really, what is coming on the poster next?!
message is coming
LiLi: whoa
EWWWWWW
Amber: that sentence read all kinds of dirty
LiLi: i know
again
we are 12
ok
i have to go soon
BOOOO
Amber: i think we have enoough
LiLi: LOL
MORE than enough
Amber: lol
whatevs
i will post it all
LiLi: YES
Amber: so sam and marcus can take turns reading it out loud in our voices while riding in the van
like a script
LiLi: LMFAO
please put that in there somewhere
Amber: duh
LiLi: since marcus doesn’t drive
Amber: which is HILARIOUS
LiLi: he can read aloud
it will give him practice
for fanfic reading
Amber: BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!
LiLi: i should write a fake paragraph
of a fic
and we can attach it at the bottom
for practice purposes
Amber: LMAO
omg
please do
LiLi: hahahahaha
Amber: but really just send it to me
And that’s it folks, it’s over. No more chats to share. Sad, no? Thank you for reading our nonsense over these last few days. Anyone who has been to a Sam or Marcus show knows that you go through major show withdrawls after. These blog posts have helped to lessen our woes. Well, that and the livestream from PJs, which despite Amber’s tweets I did watch…some.
i give you exhibit C- dueling laptops.
After the Blackhawks lost my poor little heart couldn’t take it. I had to go to bed and cry myself to sleep. But from reading Amber’s tweets the next morning I missed a hell of a show. And by that I mean a Drunk Marcus. DAMMIT. I blame Raffi Torres. And Jason Segal.
In the Trust Tree: The Night of No Regrets — A Four Part Series — Part Three: We Actually Talk About the Show
Part three! Aren’t you excited?!? In case you need to catch up, here is Part 1 and Part 2.
I know what you are thinking. Will these girls EVER talk about the show?? We finally got there. And we get serious. Well, as serious as we can get which is really not all that serious. We talk our favorite songs, our favorite moments (which just so happens to include our good friend Kristy busting down the backstage door to get to Marcus like the police), and much we missed Marcus over the past two and a half years.
LiLi: serious question time
Amber: uh oh
phew
okay
bring it
LiLi: other than woman you crazy, what was your fave song?
Sam. Sigh.
Amber: i really, really like the new song (amber edit: Not Your Kind, obvs)
i know it’s not quite so upbeat
LiLi: oh yeah?
Amber: but i like it bunches
LiLi: well, i really, really, REALLY like the new song
so there
i’m kidding
i like it
but i have to say
that my fave was an oldie
yeah
i will be that person
but soho whores (amber edit: sorry for the wooing. yes. some of those woos are mine) was the first song of sam’s that i heard
and i remember tweeting who sang it
and you and jbell virtually rolled your eyes at me
hahahaha
Amber: LMAO
we were like, duh, sam bradley
DUH
LiLi: and then when we were in LA someone had that song on before the show at the hotel cafe
and i was like awww..memories
so to hear it once more
was like AWWWWW
MEMORIES
Amber: that was such a better answer then the new song because i like it that i gave
i guess i have just really been digging everything new sam has done
not to sound all cheesy
LiLi: too late
Amber: but it’s just getting better
LOL
gah
i know
LiLi: please
like i didn’t get all feely yesterday
ugh
let’s not talk about that
Amber: oh no
moving on….
LiLi: so
the part where Kristy
busted in on Marcus backstage
Amber: oh my gah
she banged on his door like the police
LiLi: um…what do you think sam was trying to prove to marcus?
he was all “go get marcus. MARCUS!!”
i was teetering the sobriety ledge about then
Amber: that was an odd moment
LiLi: none of it really made sense in my fuzzy brain
do you think it was a bet?
Amber: to see if someone would bust down the door?
LiLi: like marcus said, there’s no way people will rememeber that song
much less sing to it
lol
yes!
Amber: cause if so, i should’ve put my money on kristy
LiLi: uh
NEVER bet against kristy
she makes shit happen
Amber: hahahahahahaha
LiLi: she’s kinda like a mob boss
what do you need?
done
i’ll take care of it
Amber: oh she did take care of it
thank goodness marcus wasn’t changing or anything
can we talk about one of my fave moments of the show?
LiLi: hahahahaha
no
lol
Amber: damn
LiLi: duh
of course
Amber: kiss is a knife
that was LEGIT probably the best part of the show
LiLi: YESSSSSSSSSSSS
Amber: for me
LiLi: and for anyone that likes sunshine
and puppies
and awesome things
Amber: i don’t think everyone gets how that went down
Jack and Marcus. Double sigh.
i don’t think it was planned
LiLi: i don’t think so either
Amber: sam was just bobbing his head and singing along near us and then
BAM
he jumps on the stage
LiLi: and we all died
Amber: and steals the mic from jack
(which i will forgive him for, but only this once)
kiss is a knife is one of those songs that translates so much better live then recorded
and the 2 of them were so
IN TO IT
i was a puddle my friend
a puddle
LiLi: SERIOUSLY
i can’t handle that song live normally
but with sam
AND JACK
jeebus crisp
Amber: GAH!!!!!!
LiLi: i had a moment
Amber: i’m glad we were able to hold each other
LiLi: fo reals
Amber: i may not have made it otherwise
LiLi: lol
Amber: on marcus’ performance in general
can i just say
that i forgot how amazing he was live
i thought i remembered
but i didn’t
LiLi: ditto
it was like i thought i was prepared
since we’ve seen him what?
twice before?
but nope
i was blown away
Amber: 2 and a half years between shows though
LiLi: it’s like it was him
only fresher, more fine tuned
Amber: YES
LiLi: like i was rememebering AM
and we heard him in digital
Amber: that is the best comparison ever
LiLi: oh
Amber: he was so shy on stage before
and now
LiLi: well
thank you
Amber: he owns it
our wee little marcus has grown up
LiLi: gah!
Amber: with his $300 shoes
and all
marcus being all growed up
LiLi: seriously
i remember his very first show here
he kept saying how nervous he was
which i thought, dood, you don’t have to tell us
we can see
but last week?
yeah
Amber: no nervousness
none
LiLi: completely different
he’s still charming and kinda awk
but he’s not without confidence
Gah. This whole four part thing is kinda fun. I’m going through major withdrawals and this is helping so much. Now, tomorrow is the last one and you gotta read how it all ends (which is actually with a couple of regrets, regardless of the title of this post.).
In the Trust Tree: The Night of No Regrets — A Four Part Series — Part Two: Declarations
Need a quick recap of Part One??
Here’s what you need to know…
HUGS FROM JACK. The end.
But seriously– other stuff DID happen after that. And that stuff would be a rando local guy played some music, we got Sam hugs, Amber got the bitchbrow by some tweens and became a “Whoo-Girl”.
Please join us in reliving the fun:
When We Declare Sam the BEST Hugger, Amber Becomes a WOO Girl, and the Night of No Regrets
Amber: should we talk about sam and marcus
LiLi: confession
this was the first show where i didn’t listen to the opening act
at all
Amber: omg
me too
LiLi: gah
here's the moment when we started paying attention to the stage. clearly.
Amber: i felt kind of bad
LiLi: i feel guilty
but not that guilty
cause our neglect led to jack hugs
Amber: i mean, i wasn’t back there being obnoxiously loud
at least i don’t think i was
EXACTLY
we were scouting out that merch table, just waiting to jump in
LiLi: but i like that sam popped up right before he was to go on stage
at the merch table
i was like, oh
hey
i know you
i was so disoriented
Amber: enter first sam hugs of the evening
LiLi: yes!
Amber: that boy, he is a good hugger
LiLi: he really is
which is unfair to others
Amber: it really is
LiLi: i’m like hey all other people, please
please don’t hug me
Amber: i just never want the hugs to end
LiLi: lol
uh, that’s not a hug after a few minutes
ewwwwww
Amber: it’s out there
i can’t take it back
LiLi: lol
so
the actual sam set
do you remember YEAH-ing??
a lot?
Amber: YES
LiLi: and whoo-ing?
Amber: omg
what the hell is wrong with me
LiLi: you became a whoo-girl
Amber: i did
i can’t help it
the music
the alcohol
the hugs
bad combo
LiLi: srsly
and i kept yeah-ing after you
Amber: my whooing led to that entire verse of woman you crazy being sang to me though
and for that
i have no regrets
(please love my running theme during our chat of no regrets)
LiLi: this shall be henceforth known as
The Night of No Regrets
Amber: exactly
LiLi: cause i know you don’t regret those daggers being thrown your way
during that song
Amber: that.was.amazing.
this one girl
we locked eyes
and then i waved at her
and she smiled that smile that says
come at me bitch
seriously
LiLi: YES
Amber: amazing
LiLi: you totally regina georged her
Amber: hahahahahahha
#PLASTICSFTW
LiLi: awwww
the DallasPlastics
HOLLA
::tipping one out::
Want more?? Duh. I’m kidding. But if you want to read about where we actually discuss the show itself, please tune in tomorrow for Part 3. It may or may not include a moment where someone from our group banged on the greenroom door Police Style and scared Marcus.
Spoiler alert…it does.
In the Trust Tree: The Night of No Regrets — A Four Part Series — Part One: Our First Time with Jack
Wow. Read that title again. It sounds soooooo serious bidness, doesn’t it?
Well, you know us. We are far from it (except when we get all Serious Sam on y’all. but we give you fair warning of that.). LiLi and I decided rather then writing a concert review of the Sam/Marcus/Jack show we went to last week, that we’d go up in the trust tree and chat it out. And chat it out we did. So much so, that when it was all said and done, I had 13 pages of dialogue. All of it… GOLD! I couldn’t cut anything if I wanted to.
So, after some discussion, we decided to divide it all up. A four part series…. like a miniseries or Lifetime movie. But with less of Jennifer Love-Hewitt’s boobs and more of LiLi’s (i hear there is a pic floating around).
And now introducing part one….
Our First Time with Jack
we could be sister wives, no?? #normal
I think that title is appropriate. It says it all. Although you really want to read on for not only our first meeting, but also where we discuss naked LiLi, full frontal hugs and my affinity for white v-neck tees. Now, up in the trust tree we all go…
LiLi: where should we start??
Amber: we will start from the beginning
where i waved at sam like some sort of maniac when we got to the venue
LiLi: uh yeah
start there
with your creepy ability to sense when english people are around
Amber: it’s a gift
LiLi: which is better than where i would start
with that kick ass bean burger i ate
anyhoo
yes
we waved
and i saw my first glimpse of jack
Amber: gah
LiLi: i was like OMG
THERE HE IS
HE IS REAL
Amber: we won’t say that after we got in the venue and went and creepily peered out the window
nope
no
it all happened at once
LiLi: lol
Amber: we saw sam, and then hair, and then jack attached to the hair
LiLi: uh, you all did
i went to the bar
and eyed up that tall bartendar
he was nice
Amber: i kept trying to get tall bartender, and then creepy bearded bartender kept coming over
i wanted to tell him no
you cannot help me
LiLi: oooo
Amber: but that guy can
LiLi: i liked the bearded guy
cause he had sleeves
Amber: you and your tats
which had a massive unveiling that night
LiLi: ugh
i know
i felt naked
NO ONE sees those
Amber: it was awesome
your first meeting with jack and you felt naked
amazing
i love how nervous we were in approaching him
will he think we are crazy twitter stalkers?
i mean, we are, but we don’t want anyone to THINK that
LiLi: i know
i was like DON’T TELL HIM WHO WE ARE
and then i told him
Amber: i was like TELL HIM
TELL HIM
and then we got hugs
LiLi: i saw a quick flash of fear
like he didn’t know which way this meeting could go
Amber: so i regret nothing
LiLi: yes
i regret NOTHING
we got hugs amber
HUGS
from JACK
Amber: any meeting that ends in hugs is a good meeting
LiLi: full frontal hugs
Amber: GAH
we didn’t even have to creepily ask for them
LiLi: i know!
Amber: not that i was above doing that
LiLi: WIN
Amber: this is soooooo going on our facebook timeline
the first time we full frontal hugged jack
i like saying first, cause it puts it out there that we expect more
LiLi: YES
that’s not creepy at all
That's right Jack. Tune that guitar. Tune it like there is no tomorrow!
we expect MORE body contact with you jack
in the future
so prepare yourself
Amber: duh
also, i don’t know if you noticed this
but after the show, he had on a white vneck
LiLi: are you serious?
Amber: YES
LiLi: i mean
that i didn’t notice?
it was hard NOT to with you hot whispering into my ear
WHITE V NECK LILI
WHITE V NECK
Amber: well, you know what those shirts do for me
LiLi: yes
i do
and now so do my ears
Amber: lol
Now, for those of you who are all “what is with all the Jack love?” (Sam), I want to say first of all, we can’t know you if you if you don’t love Jack. There. We said it. We love him like whoa and you should too. Secondly, the other 3 parts of this series are pretty much all Sam and Marcus shenanigans. So there. We just couldn’t NOT have a Jack post. Not after all of our love was pretty much confirmed through full frontal hugs.
Like this:
