Twi/Tour Concert Night

Comments Off

Confession #1: I didn’t stay for the whole concert because it was past midnight and I was exhausted.

Confession #2: I AM IN LOVE WITH PETER FACINELLI.

Just so we’re clear. ;)

Last night’s concert opened with The Twilighters, who, as the name suggests, play Twilight-themed music. To be 100% honest, I’m not really a fan of TwiRock (or whatever the kids are calling it these days), but their song “Cake” had me laughing hysterically. And Fred really does look like Edward…

Will Champlin was next, and he is MEGA talented. His band totally rocked out – I only wish for their sakes that the crowd had been bigger (and more awake!). Will also played a Twilight-inspired song called “Killing Me With Twilight” which had the fangirls all aflutter!

I almost left right after Will was done, but I’m so glad I stayed because Billy Burke and Peter Facinelli came out and “hosted” (read: stalled for time) while the bands switched out… it was hilarious! Peter showed off his guitar skills by playing “La Bamba” while Billy plunked a few notes on the keyboard, then Billy disappeared backstage, leaving Peter to entertain the audience (who weren’t complaining at all, of course!). Peter led the crowd in some acting games (I thought the chosen volunteers were going to faint with pure fangirl ecstasy) and then took questions, most of which were of the “can I hug you?” variety… Peter graciously answered questions, gave hugs, and took pictures for about 20 minutes while the next band set up.

Granted, my press pass has been used to its full power as I’ve been sitting right up front to get pictures, but this time Peter actually came down off the stage and stopped right in front of me. In fact, at one point he was so close that he actually stepped on me (I didn’t complain)! The shameless fangirl inside of me wanted to jump up and tackle him, or at least grab his leg, but I restrained myself for the sake of my press pass and just “accidentally” touched his shoe. Pathetic, I know, and probably not exciting to anyone but me, but I TOUCHED PETER FREAKING FACINELLI. And this picture? Not zoomed in at all!

Like I confessed before, I didn’t stay for the whole concert… after Peter and Billy disappeared (and my heart broke into a million pieces… kidding!), I skipped out on the Mitch Hansen Band and went straight back to my hotel to sleep (and boy, is that bed comfortable!). But today is Kellan Lutz and Ashley Greene day, so I’m raring to go! A full report and lots more pictures will be coming your way tonight!

See the rest of my pictures from the concert here!
