Why yes, Marcus IS Likeable!

Amber — Sun, 22 Jan 2012 22:36:37 +0000

Dear Jack,

When you post photos like this, I fall in love with you and Marcus even more.

From the amazing Jack Standen!

I’ve decided that I want to live my life big love style with you, Marcus and LiLi. But only if Marcus promises to wear that big foam thumb all the time. It’s a deal breaker for me.

Love,
Amber

P.S. Dood. Look at me. Blogging and such. The tour is good inspiration. Hopefully we will be doing more!

In The Trust Tree…

So you know how ~~27 times a day~~ sometimes Amber and I refer to our gchats via twitter?

And every once and a while will post them on here?

Yeah. We like it.

So we are rolling with it. Again.

And we feel like this is something that we will do regularly….so it needed a name.

After much brainstorming and arguing back and forth we went with ~~the first thing that came to mind~~ :

In The Trust Tree

Cause that’s what our gchats are. A safeplace to fangirl and not be judged. Or for us to get ammo to have on each other the one day that this whole thing blows up in our faces and we are called in to testify. Either way. They are fun. And sometimes too good NOT to share with you guys. Especially when pics like THIS come through our feed:

We saw this and immediately had oh so much to say about it.

Check it:

Where Amber gets back from a meeting and checks in with me….#NORMAL:

Amber: well what’d i miss???

LiLi: group shot!

Amber: oooooooo

LiLi: yes!

all of them

together

being men

and musky

Amber: and hipstery

i love it!!

Amber: it’s amazing

p.s.

they are all on their phones

which i LOVE

it’s like the boy version of our group

Amber: beer

LiLi: i need to view it larger

Amber: tweeting

LiLi: we should be gchatting this pic

at the same time

hold on

i am going to try and open it again

on my work computer and not my cell

LiLi: yay

omg

LOVE

Amber: WOO HOO!

LiLi: xmaas is like, dood, “what should i tweet next?”

and they are all trying to out do one another with gross shit

LiLi: that poor guy in the back

Amber: clearly annoyed

LiLi: he’s just trying to read a bit before dinner

Amber: he’s all “damn hipsters”

LiLi: LOL

and their iPhones

Amber: even hipsters succumb to the man every once and awhile

Where we discuss “buzz burps” and my open promise to Amber:

Amber: i’m noting that marcus’ glass is very full

LiLi: uh, that’s his 3rd

Amber: i’m hoping that’s the 2nd round

LiLi: BWAHAHAHAHA

Amber: bwahahahahaha

STOP IT!!

LiLi: that’s why he looks so quiet

he’s teetering on being hammered

i feel like he’s one step before the buzz burps

just trying to stay upright

Amber: hahahahaha

buzz burps?

i love it

LiLi: LOL

Amber: i don’t get those

i give out buzzed hugs

LiLi: er…yeah…me either

Amber: i guess i’ll FINALLY find out in may

LiLi: hahahahaha

i will probs tell you i love you like 17 times

and won’t stop side hugging you

Amber: then i will hug you 17 times

it will be amazing

LiLi: it really will be

Where we sidetrack cause we’ve found a doppleganger:

LiLi: ps–

that guy on the far right

is that Bunny**’s husband?

Amber: OMG!

we found his doppleganger!!

AND he’s on Team Foster!

WIN!

LiLi: hahahaha

(CLEARLY we don’t have friends named Bunny. We change names to protect innocent peeps.)

Where we once again prove how creepy we are AND cover Canadian tuxedos:

LiLi: and one slightly disturbing thing to note in this pic

their hair. all of them. i die. srsly. my fingers are itching.

Amber: the guy to the far left

LiLi: great musicians, great music, blah, blah, i just love hair.

Amber: i feel like i wanna push it out of his eyes

but not in an annoyed way

in a nice way

LiLi: who? jack??

in a caress?

heh

Amber: yes… uh… jack

LiLi: i just wrote caress

Amber: you know i can’t keep these peeps straight

LiLi: AND knew his name

Amber: you WIN!

and yes

a slight caress

and then a hug

LiLi: and by win you mean i win the creepster of the day award

Amber: cause i’ll be buzzed

LiLi: correction: a slight caress AS you move IN for the hug

Amber: bungo!

i mean

bingo!

LiLi: pshaw

Amber: am i drunk now?

LiLi: BUNGO is way better

Amber: something else slightly disturbing

but also hilar

the one guy

holding the cushion

i’m sure you know his name

LiLi: or bag

whatevs

Amber: oh

LiLi: um….rick

Amber: it IS a bag

LiLi: he looks like a rick

or rich

Amber: something with an ri, eh?

LiLi: or marcus. cause all guys who play folk are named marcus

#duh

Amber: duh

lessons learned from the best line of fit

anyway

he looks the way 13 year old boys look

you know

when a hot girl walks by

LiLi: and puts a cushion in his lap?

to cover his ::ahem:: excitement?

Amber: yep

LiLi: hahahaahahahaha

Amber: that’s all it looks like he is doing to me

LiLi: i like him

his bag is rad

and he’s wearing a canadian tuxedo

so he’s WIN

Amber: i do like that bag

but the jean jacket can go

and i learned something new

cause i NEVER heard it called a canadian tuxedo till today

that is amazing

LiLi: dood

for reals?

when someone wears jeans AND a jean jacket??

BAM

canadian tuxedo

Amber: add boots to it and around here that’s a Saturday night outfit for Grahams

LiLi: LOL

Where we decide to make shirts and get tattoos:

LiLi: srsly though

this looks like one of our meetups

Amber: right??

LiLi: i need to stop staring at this pic

Amber: i know

but i don’t want to

i feel like i’m part of the group

LiLi: i feel like someone was standing there and was like, okay everyone, act like you are doing something and imma take a pic

1….2…..TEAM FOSTER!

Amber: BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!

you may be right

that’s why Marcus is looking down

Mr. Shy Guy

LiLi: pfft

i’m telling you

it’s all a front

Amber: dood!!

i’m starting to think so too!!

LiLi: pshaw

it’s always the quiet ones

Amber: just a front to get the ladies

and it works

LiLi: duh

Amber: even knowing it’s a front it still works

i am such a sucker

LiLi: hahahaha

you’re their demographic

Amber: can get a shirt that says that for the next show?

“i’m your demographic”

LiLi: “i’m marcus’ demographic”

Amber: yes!

LiLi: do it!

and i will get one that say’s “i’m jack’s”

and we will have to stand next to each other the whole night

Amber: bwahahahahahaha!!

omg

i LOVE it

fine fine

i’ll drop demographic off my shirt too

won’t want people thinking you are the only crazy one there

LiLi: so your shirt will say “i’m marcus’”

Amber: duh

LiLi: omg

that’s not creepy at all, huh?

i can see it now

Amber: not even a little bit

LiLi: we are wearing those shirts and trying to meet them after a show

what an impression

Amber: i can GUARANTEE they’ll never forget us

LiLi: what a way to make him think differently of US fans

hahahahaha

come to the states, where we’ll freak you out with crazy tee shirts professing our love

Amber: hey, it’s better than showing off my tattoo

if i had one

which i don’t

i think that one girl who showed marcus her bobby tattoo is probs why he said that

let’s blame her!!

LiLi: LOL

yes

omg

i die just thinking about it

Amber: that moment is seared to my memory forever

much like marcus’ memory i am sure

gah

i thought he looked uncomfortable before

LiLi: fo sho

Amber: that was nothing compared to THAT moment

LiLi: i should have been like, oh! we are showing tattoos now?

here’s my last name, in old english letters across my back

Amber: i have nothing to offer to this show and tell

sad

LiLi: hahahaha

let’s rectify this!

this may!

Amber: omg

LiLi: srsly!

ooooo

Amber: i am SOOO scared of needles

LiLi: get a marcus tattoo to show to Sam

and then i will get a sam tattoo to show to bobby

Amber: ah

the circle of creepy tattoos will then be complete

LiLi: YES

we will have to become friends with that girl with the bobby tattoo

Amber: yes!

she seems so nomal!!

Where we reminisce on Amber flashing Sam:

Amber: so, instead of the tattoo

can i just show my boobs instead

i’m pretty sure that will be just as effective

it’s all i have to offer

and since i pretty much already showed my boobs to sam anyway

LiLi: you did??

why don’t i remember this?

Amber: that’s when you were not there to save me

LiLi: when??

the last time?

Amber: yep

did i not tell you this??

LiLi: i think you did

i am just now membering

Amber: even drunk i was embarrassed

and that’s hard to do

LiLi: oh

oh my

i am giggling at the memory

this is why i don’t drink at these shows

or say much

the chances of me blurting out something inappropriate and/or showing parts of my body increase with every unit of alcohol consumed

Amber: bwahahaahahahaah!!

so true

LiLi: it’s a sad fact

Amber: for me

LiLi: there are STILL pics of my booty floating around from college

and how do i know this??

effing facebook

Amber: LMAO!!

LiLi: i am like dood– that was YEARS ago

get some new material

Amber: omg

i am reading my “review” of that show where i showed my boobs

i am such a nerd

LiLi: oooo

send me the link

too lazy to look it up

Amber: http://shackofsoul.com/2010/11/16/ambers-drunken-concert-review-cause-thats-how-i-roll/

LiLi: OMG

you yelled out “moms rock!”

i TOTALLY forgot about that part

BWAHAHAAHAHAHA

Amber: it’s actually more embarrassing reading it now then it was writing it in november

i am DYING laughing and cringing at the same time

LiLi: srsly

i am DYING here

Where we wrap it up cause…let’s be honest…this shizz was long enough:

LiLi: okay

i am out. i am done early today

Amber: bye!

LiLi: bye!

So there it is…our latest edition of In The Trust Tree.

What did you all think?

Wanna snuggle up in the tree with us? There’s plenty of room!

best first post on new site EVER

Amber — Wed, 16 Feb 2011 15:31:31 +0000

Check out our new design! Now we can post pictures like these so much faster and all have a good ~~laugh~~ look together.

friday fangirl report: the all Marcus all the time edition

Li Li — Fri, 28 Jan 2011 18:15:35 +0000

Happy Friday everyone!

Here’s all the latest, i.e. what I could dig up in 30 mins, on Mr. Foster:

from the blogosphere:

Music Rocks Our World- Marcus Foster at St. Pancras Old Church (brief mention)

The Independent- Marcus Foster at St. Pancras Old Church (review)

from twitterland:

fingers crossed for all those planning to go

GAH! i hadn't seen the actual CD yet....GORGEOUS!

from the Tube:

A few NEW songs from Marcus’ last performance at St. Pancras Old Church. All videos are from madaboutvampires youtube channel. She has loads more so be sure to check them all out.

Nameless Path

Old Birch Tree

Rushes and Reeds

And now for a few covers that we found floating around the ol’ interwebs:

Any thoughts on the new songs? And what about that album/CD design– love or hate? Until next week….

The One Where I Proclaim My Love for Jack Standen!

Amber — Tue, 07 Dec 2010 13:00:41 +0000

Dear Jack Standen,

This letter has been a long time coming. I just had to finally go on and say it.

I love you.

I’ll admit, I was a little skeptical of you at first. Cause let’s get real. Your Twitter avi kinda freaked me out. I don’t care that LiLi said she loved it more then socially acceptable. I see crazy eyes, I think crazy guy.

But I put that all aside, cause you are in Camp Foster for the new album and were tweeting tons of deets on what you, XMAAS and Marcus were doing all the time.

And how much do I LOVE you guys for calling it Camp Foster! I never got to go to a summer camp, so I kinda think LiLi and I should come and be counselors so we can relive this part of our childhood. We”ll bring t-shirts!

How do I get to be counselor of THIS camp?!

And since I can’t depend on Marcus to tweet all the goodies from recording (srsly, teach that boy how to use Twitter), I started falling in like with you. We hadn’t hit the love part… yet.

But last week, when you started dropping the Marcus Foster pics on me, well, I knew your were the real deal. And I fell in love. How could I not? You tweeted a picture of Marcus and a freakin’ puppy!!

Does it GET any cuter then this?!

And then, yesterday, you did it again.

A banjo people. A FREAKIN' BANJO!

Can my heart take anymore? I think you should keep testing it with your tweets and amazeballs pictures that you clearly take with Hipstamatic, making my ~~fake~~ hipster heart super happy!

In fact, could you do me a favor? You know, since we are in love and all. I’m gonna need you to take all these bad ass pics and tweets you’ve been posting from Camp Foster and make a photo book, bring them on the tour and sell them to fangirls like me who want to see ~~funny pics of Marcus~~ the recording process in addition to buying the new album. I promise, these things would sell like hotcakes. And I mean hotcakes with blueberrys and hot maple syrup. Yum!

So, Jack, all I gotta say is… keep up the good work. We are depending on you over here!

Much Love,

Amber

P.S. Um, why aren’t all of YOU following Jack yet? Get on it!

sam stop. but don’t.

Li Li — Mon, 29 Nov 2010 20:08:22 +0000

Ah Monday. The Monday after Thanksgiving no less. Always fun to be back at work after a full week off, no? But, I guess I should be lucky I have a job so maybe I should just get to the point of this post, no?

So, this past week, I have felt off. Not just because I was sick, but because I was ::gasp:: offline for most of the week. Can you believe it? Yeah, me neither. I was THAT sick that even the computer was making it worse.

Anyhoo, last night as I was getting ready for night night times, I realized that the “off-ness” I was feeling was that I hadn’t checked or really been on twitter in what seemed like years, save the half hour that I listened to the Fearless interview with Mr. Bradley. I started sweating at the realization. What had I missed? What important tweet did I miss RTing? GAH!

With shaking hands I grabbed my cellie and quickly scrolled through both my accounts saving the SoS one for last. And. Then. I. Saw. It. My worst fears came true. I MISSED a GENIUS TWEET.

http://twitter.com/samueltwitt1/status/9074693944385537

With THIS pic linked:

anddddd....i DIE.

You’re probs thinking uh, what’s so special about that? Erm. That’s where I have a confession to make. HATS. Hats are my kryptonite. A guy in a hat is like a girl in a school girl uniform for guys. Like WHOA.

And it’s NOT the first time people. Did you all see this (where he apparently got that hat in the pic)? GAH. I mean, sometimes, even THIS is goo, although, I could do without the beibs hair. and that huge watch. But whatevs.

Naturally, I got on gchat with Amber and I might have virtually squeed all over her (heh) about the hats. Which of course led us to thinking about hats that we could give Sam during the next meet and greet. I mean, don’t be surprised if we show up with one of these to give to him the next time he rolls through Dallas, although, this post might just make him skip Dallas on the next tour. So maybe I will just send him this for Christmas, yeah?

a blog divided

All the good hats are college ones, right? And since Amber and I are from dueling nations, she being a ::ahem:: Sooners fan, where I am a die hard Longhorn gal, we couldn’t decide on which school to give so there.

Although, I guess this one would be goo too, don’t you think?

cafepress rules

What hat would you like to send Sam? Let us know. And in the meantime, please to be NOT stopping with the hats, mmmkay Sam? Preesh.

I’m THIS Close to Pulling the Emergency Handle Marcus!

Amber — Tue, 23 Nov 2010 15:43:13 +0000

Yesterday, LiLi and I got all kinds of jazzed up! We were kind of dying for some Marcus news for awhile, and finally last week, you came out of the woodwork and tweeted for us:

Of course, we were walking on air for you! I mean, I literally squeed out loud and did a happy dance. So then, yesterday, Chris Maas (XMAAS on the Twitter) tweeted this:

LiLi was excited. I said WTF. Because back in June, you tweeted this:

Now, here is my question… is the new EP still coming? Or are you ::gasp:: starting over since you got the record deal? Cause let me tell you, I’ve been eagerly awaiting this EP and I don’t know how much longer I can wait.

Since it’s what we do, LiLi and I had a little chat about this. Here is my reaction, in real time:

Amber: no

srsly

what’d i miss

LiLi: hahahahaha

it’s nothing major

at all

just that today is the day that they start recording

Amber: Oh

damn

wait

i thought they’d been recording an album already

tumble down

or is he starting over

since he has the deal now

c’mon

interpret that tweet for me

i need answers

LiLi: LOL

right

let’s ask him

Amber: hold on

i’ll dm sam

ask for marcus’ cell #

LiLi: BWAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAAHA

Amber: i’ll be like listen

it’s totally legit

i just need to ask a few questions

in the name of the blog

1. what the hell? i thought you were already recording songs! are you stating over?

2. where do i find pants that come 2 inches above my ankle? i’m trying and failing

3. do granny panties turn you on? i just need to know so i can plan my outfit for the next time i see you

see

that’s like a 15 min convo

tops

LiLi: LMAO

omg

marcus– your tweets are confusing us

we might need to pull the emergency handle, aka use the DM that shall never be used

Amber: hahahahaaha

LiLi: unless in an EXTREME emergency

like clarifying what the H is going on with your album

Amber: dood

that is EXTREME!

lol

now all i can think about are those guys in harold & kumar

LiLi: LOL

So there. See what you are driving me to Marcus? Not only am I thinking about pulling out Harold & Kumar this weekend, watching, laughing, and then being all sad panda about not having a White Castle near me, but I’m also getting impatient and am THIS close to pulling the emergency handle.

Give us a little update. Do it for Sam, cause trust. He does not want to be on the receiving end of that awkward DM.

P.S. I just saw and rememebered I mean to ask you about this tweet:

Srsly. Dude. I will blow your ass out of the water on Words with Friends. I am this close to just searching for MarcusFoster1 and starting with this battle royale of word play. Oh, and don’t cheat and use your English words on me. I only can write in American.

P.P.S. For any of you wondering… I would NEVER pull the emergency handle. Ever. And I stay away from that mofo when I am drunk, cause I don’t trust Drunk Amber with the emergency handle. At all.

LiLi’s Sober Recap (cause someone has to drive)

Li Li — Wed, 17 Nov 2010 18:32:23 +0000

which is funny, cause I let Amber drive after the show. Whoops.

Anyhoo….

So, you all know that Sam played in Dallas last Friday, thanks to Amber’s revisit yesterday.

It was AMAZING. He sang Lights. And Scared. And a song about Sugar Mamas. And then the heavens opened and angels poured in and filled the HoB with rainbows and sunshine.

Did that really happen? Well, no, I mean, DUH. But if it did, I wouldn’t know cause I wasn’t effing there! Yup. I missed the WHOLE set. After all my planning and determination and speeding and changing while driving (HOLLA old man at stop light in Kaufman who gave me a courtesy honk while I took off my jeans) I didn’t get to see nor hear ONE song.

BUT, I did make it in time for the meet and greet after Sam’s set– which pretty much made up for the fact that I missed the WHOLE effing show. Yeah, in case you missed that– I MISSED THE WHOLE SET. At least I am not bitter, right? Heh.

Approaching the HoB, I recieved a text from Amber letting me know to come right in the door and she would be waiting along with Sam. This made me laugh out loud since I had been reading her tweets (at stoplights– not while driving) and I could see the drunk progression as the night went on. Yet, she wasn’t kidding. I opened the door and boom, there he was. Right there. It kinda made me jump cause I really thought Amber was kidding. He was in the midst of talking with some fans so naturally I did what needed to be done. I went to the bar.

Finally, with a beer in hand, aka my liquid courage since I am not good at talking to people, I made my way to the line only to be assaulted by Amber and her 10sec recap of the entire set. It was impressive. She sounded like that micromachines guy that used to do those commercials. And then she ::ahem:: directed me to get in line so she could get in line again. To which I laughed cause this girl loves her some meet and greet lines.

It didn’t take long for us to reach the ~~holy land~~ Sam and much to my surprise he not only remembered me but also noticed that I had cut my hair. Pretty amazing if you ask me since there are peeps that I have known for years that have yet to notice. It wasn’t until later that I realized I had missed my chance! I should’ve used his complement to my new coif as my segue into finally ~~completing my creepsterness~~ touching Sam’s hair. UGH. Foiled again.

After that, much is a blur as I was trying to buy a CD from TwoShoes (HOLLA– who I was supa excited to see in person again) while attempting to sound coherent to Sam with people stopping by every few seconds to wish him well and say goodbye. As always, he was generous to everyone that stopped to speak to him, giving them his undivided attention. This is one of the reasons I like him so much, outside of his music. He is genuine with every fan that he encounters, making sure that everyone has a good time at his shows.

After a break in the people saying goodbye, I got my chance to tell Sam how much I enjoyed the album, to which he replied, “I heard.”

Um. Say what?

I asked him to clarify and that is when I found out that he has, in fact, heard both mine and Amber’s audioboos.

::facepalm::

He only laughed and said, “Well, I do follow you guys on twitter.”

er…..yeah…..about that…..

Amber and I both try not to think about the fact that Sam does follow us, otherwise, I don’t think we’d have the balls to post half the shizz we do. Let’s just say it’s a good damn thing he can’t see our gchats. Whoa.

Ignoring the increasing embarrassment at knowing now that Sam has heard me sound like Sylvester the Cat on the ol’ Boo, I asked for my CD signed, we got a few pics and then I returned to my lover, I mean the bar to get a refill.

That is when Sam excused himself to uh, ::whispers:: use the john and then he never returned. I’m pretty sure that he got caught up in whatever it is musicians get caught up in after their shows– I shall not venture a guess– either that or he’d been eating way too much Mexican food while in Tejas and he really did get ::ahem:: caught up in the bathroom.

Either way, the night was awesome, even though I didn’t get to hear him play, I got to hang with Amber, meet some new peeps, get my copy of Zuni signed and managed to squeeze in a little side hug from Mr. Bradley. Not too shabby. The only thing that would have made it better would’ve been the hair. ::sigh:: One of these days…..

Now– have you entered to win a SIGNED copy of Zuni???
Why the eff not?? The contest is open to anyone and ends tonight at 11:59pm (central time, yo).
So getchyoself over there and enter!

And the Winner is…. Plus, Our Reactions to Zuni, Audioboo Style, AND New Marcus Pics!!
