I don't think I can say how awesome TBS was last night. Considering my night started out pretty shitty, it ended on a FANTASTIC note. I got there at like 5:30 and there was hardly anyone in line, maybe 15 people, so I was like 20 feet away from the door. Will Call was supposed to open up at 6:30 but it didn't open until like 7pm. So by the time they opened up will call everyone else was already inside. Turns out the idiots at Marquee Theatre didn't have the will call lists for the people that bought tickets on like tix.musictoday.com or whatever site you can buy ticks on before they go to Ticketmaster. So I'm waiting in line for 20 mins and it's my turn and the lady can't find my name anywhere on the lists and it doesn't say my name or my DL on the reciept so she's calling Visa and asking if I actually purchased the tickets (no, I just fabricated a confirmation reciept cuz I'm oh so cool like that) and finally after about 15 mins of looking thru papers on protocol and whatnot she finally gave me the fucking ticket. So I got in after EVERYONE ELSE who was in line got in. Yea, really fucking cool. So of course i didn't get to be up front and that totally irked me beyond belief. Ticker Tape Parade kicked ass of course. Then Recover came on and they blew everyone away. I ran into Josh after TTP and I was all "Josh?" and he looked at me and his jaw dropped and he was all "OMG!!!" Then our conversation went a little like this:
Josh - *picks me up and proceeds to give me lots and lots of hugs*
me - OMG!!! I've missed you so0o0 much!!
Josh - DUUUUDE!!! I've missed you too!!
me - It's been like forever since I've seen you!
Josh - I know!!! I was just thinking about you the other day. I was all "wow, I haven't seen Ashley in a while."
me - Awww!! I feel loved!
Josh - You are loved!
*we kept holding onto eachother throughout the entire conversation*
Josh - This is my friend Matt.
Me - *shakes hand with said friend and this is friend proceeds to pick me up and give me a big hug to*
friend - You know what Josh does.
me - He drums. He's a sexy bitch. *hugs tighter*
Josh then told me that he wants to hang out with me sometime and I gave him my number and he told me he'd give me a call. *swoons* He's so hot.
There were these other boys there that were all trying to get on me. The one kid was asking me how old I was and then bragging to his friends that I was 18 and him and his friends were giving me big hugs and so of course I hugged them both back and they introduced theirselves and whatnot and they kept saying hi to me and giving me big hugs whenever they saw me. It was kind of cute. I made fun of them liking 50 Cent. They were all "who are you here for?" and I was like "TBS and FATA. Who are you here for?" and he was all like "I don't really like this kind of music. I'm here with my friend" and I was all "so who are you into? 50 Cent!" and then I broke down into the intro for In Da Club and they thought I was serious. *shakes head* Then I ran into Myc and got a big hug from him and I saw Cory and Matt (who of course didn't say hi to me because of past experiences). He looks way different than in his pictures. He's way tall too. I thought it was kinda cool when he asked the drunken loser to put out his cigarette. Props to you kiddo. Even though we've had our differences, I don't despise you anymore. I know you probably hate me, but it'd be kinda cool if we could reconcile and put everything behind us. It'd be nice to have a friend who likes hxc music as much as I do. FATA came on and my boys ripped it up in the pit. I saw some kids pulling some cool moves. TBS came on and they fucking blew down the house. I don't think I can say enough good things about them. Even though the venue was huge, Adam made it feel intimate. The crowd had so much energy. I fucking screamed my head off. I got thrashed around in the pit a couple times. I'm all sore but it was great. Hehe. I saw Derrick last night. He's so gorgeous. He totally pulled this guy off of me that was going to knock me over. Thanks babe. I love you. I hope he doesn't flake on Sunday. I've been thinking about this whole thing alot the past couple of nights and I think I wanna be with him. About the only song TBS didn't play was Head Club which is good because I hate that song. They played two new songs, which fucking rocked, and Your Own Disaster. I saw Stephanie Marema after the show and said goodbye to my friends and then I went on my search to find Adam since I've never met him before. I told the lead singer of FATA that they rocked and had him sign my ticket stub. Then I went back to my car and put some stuff away and as I was walking over to the TBS bus some kid was all "hey! I remember you from the Something Corporate and Finch shows" and I was all "do I know you?" and he was all "nah, I remember you is all" and I was all "I'm probably at a lot of shows you go to." I feel so loved when people remember me from shows. hehe. Then I ran into Midtown boy smoking a cigarette in his car and I got his number so we can hang out sometime since I see him at every show I go to anyways. hehe. I went by the tour buses and FINALLY met Adam and he signed my shirt for me as well as the other guitarist who I haven't met before. I got a pic with Adam too. w00t w00t.

Ashley bragged about her experience at 3:19 PM.
