2024 New York (Release Party) - Sep 19

[dull vapor]

i just emailed eric to see where they went

[stone cipher]

Justice for the discord pic

[glass drum]

Need to do a sequel at the NYE show

[stone cipher]

The amount of HYPED I am. Meeting & spending time with you all was honestly equal to meeting the band in my book of cool

[worthy gazelle]

How sad! I made it into zero of the first batch lol

[dry trellis]

there was a band?

[short oasis]

I am in one (1) photo

[dry trellis]

lexi’s one photo is my one photo

[vestal ingot]

the most romantic shit I've ever read

[stone cipher]

I’m arguably in more photos than the band. Just had to drunk yap/cry to the right people ig

[proven raptor]

Haha love it!!! Wish y’all had been able to be there. Sincerely. These shows were magical. I lost my mind when the kids came out for Thieves

[severe plank]

I'd actually be losing my mind

On the ground in the gutter

[short oasis]

Everyone should come to DC NYE 😈

[dull vapor]

someone pay for my flight and i'm there

[worthy gazelle]

Someone pay my flight and lodging... and help me figure out what to do with my kid lol

I'll be flying home from a week in AZ the 30th so alas, logistics might not be in my favor

[severe plank]

I need lodging for NYE lol

[glass drum]

I'll probably be taking the metro, gotta see if my buddies are doing a nye party tho

[stone cipher]

Lexi, Jack, and I are opting to stay together to allow the open spots for locals offering their places to go to others (if those offering feel comfortable with that!) to maximize the people able to go. Doesn’t hurt to ask in the tour chat 🤷‍♀️

[blissful scarab]

N2 was so awesome!! Met up with Eddie, and then we saw Vangeli in the crowd!! It's so awesome how the friends community can come together like this

[quaint solar]

is vangeli in the server! I remember that dude from the party, he was so nice!!

[blissful scarab]

i don’t think so,,

[proven raptor]

I remember both Eddie and and Vangeli being the absolute coolest and kindest!

[quaint solar]

does anybody know if they were just fans or with the label? i dont remember eddie! anybody got a pic?

[stone cipher]

I think they were just a fan! They’re a dancer.

[dull vapor]

i believe this is eddie

[glass drum]

Eddie rules

[dull vapor]

i didn't get to speak to them much but they cute as heck

[stone cipher]

I don’t remember what we talked about with everything that factored into that whirlwind of a night. But apparently we hit it off pretty well because we’re mutuals on Instagram.

[vestal ingot]

@viral bone literally only tagging you bc I miss your sunny vibes, hope you and Sam are keeping well 💛

[uneven sluice]

hello eddie here yall are the coolest lol

not with the label (currently, maybe in the future lol), j a fan

[blissful scarab]

best fan ever!!

[vestal ingot]

Eddie! You're so cool, gutted I didn't get to talk with you more that night

[stone cipher]

Flying this poster to Boston to see if I can get Max to sign it

[stone cipher]

He did sign it 😌

[quaint solar]

did anybody who went to the pizza party happen to ask if there were ever gonna be more pics from the release party? or are we just assuming no at this point ? only asking because i saw wild honey pie has an account now 👀

[vestal ingot]

@runic sleet hey Eric, how's it going? 😊 Do you know anything about the 2nd photo drop that was supposed to happen after the GTT album release party?

[runic sleet]

Sorry we had someone new take over after Good Time Tavern and we missed uploading more photos.

Will be doing this by next Monday ♥️

Sorry everyone

[unreal wind]

thank you friend!

[vestal ingot]

Ah no worries, thanks for the update! Looking forward to seeing them 😋

[runic sleet]

They’re up https://www.thewildhoneypie.com/gallery/sammy-rae-the-friends-good-time-tavern-at-rays-in-brooklyn-on-september-19-2024-by-emilio-herce

[vestal ingot]

Ayyyy thank you!!

[dry trellis]

i am so sorry i obliterated people out of this shot

i was crouching but not enough to save the person behind me

(trinity ?)

[stone cipher]

Yes it was me, I now have eternal beef with you 😤

[dry trellis]

hey you got one eye in

there is also a pic of me looking like a doofus next to katie and a person whose name i sadly cannot remember

[stone cipher]

Yeah what ever, you’ve ruined my life

[vestal ingot]

I love Trinity's quarter face to my half face 😂

And, ahem, Danii's whole face 👀

[vestal ingot]

Buuuuut there are some adorable photos of you with Sammy!!

Also shoutout to the photo of me openly bawling, I saw the flash out the corner of my eye and was like "ok so that's gonna come back to haunt me"

[vernal grove]

WOOOOOHOO

[stone cipher]

Honestly my best pic is when Eric is handing me the sticker when I’m still sober lololol

[runic sleet]

Haha love this

[elfin roost]

i commented on this when i saw it Im sorry it’s so good 😭😭

[short oasis]

@severe plank look how cute we areee

Even tho I’m doing the blue eyed people face

[severe plank]

I BLINKED

[severe plank]

OMG YAAAY

[short oasis]

Me being the only one to have clocked the camera in this is sending me

[severe plank]

Me and Trinity :D

[short oasis]

Dying to know what Jack and Drew were looking at

[glass drum]

I took a vow of silence. What Jack and I saw that day changed us.

[dry trellis]

the what

[dry trellis]

please edit me out of that

[short oasis]

Like there’s a joke that people with blue eyes smile with their eyes insanely wide to show off and it looks a little insane

[dry trellis]

i have never heard that in my life

i'll close my eyes from now on

[short oasis]

Which I have noticed myself doing more recently but I think it’s actually bc that’s how you’re supposed to smile when you’re being a princess and I have formed the habit from that

[stone cipher]

Yeah I do the same thing due to being a princess

But I have brown eyes so I get away with it 😌

[short oasis]

Actually I think you should edit me out of it it’s clearly such a special moment between you and Drew that was captured

[dry trellis]

ok superimpose the front of my face onto my side profile so no one can ever see it

[stone cipher]

So true, my side profile doesn’t exist and any contradictory photo evidence needs to be wiped from the internet

[short oasis]

I feel like my eyes look like they’re about to pop out of my head in that photo but it’s ok I’m cute anyway

[short oasis]

There is literally nothing wrong with your side profile 😭

[dry trellis]

emoji 107

[glass drum]

emoji 107

[short oasis]

Is that what you guys saw on that fateful day

[dull vapor]

i hate this why am i the only one who looks whack

[glass drum]

Idk what was already in the set but this pic rules. My simple brain also loves the fat tire pyramid

[dull vapor]

yeah i said at the time this should be @proven raptor's author pic if he ever writes a book

[glass drum]

For sure

[vestal ingot]

It's honestly one of my favourite photos in the whole thing, bless u Michael 😭💛

[vestal ingot]

This is really giving dads at a barbecue and I'm so here for it

[short oasis]

I told Jack at the 3rd bar he was giving dad and he immediately did this and went “nooo”

[vestal ingot]

Not that bloody sticker 😂 why does my memory of the after after party consist almost entirely of trying to remember that it was there and give it back to its owner

My 3 memories from there are:

1. being tired and sitting down for a while, Danii going to get drinks and Sammy coming over bc she saw I was sitting on my own 😭
2. PROTECT THE STICKER AT ALL COSTS
3. Goodbye hugs

[short oasis]

My entire memory of the after after party is my feet were on FIRE after being in heels for a solid 8 hours

[vestal ingot]

Ouchhhh 😭 I had a tiny heel and my feet were sore, I can't imagine how it must have been for you

Your whole fit was fire tho

[short oasis]

I definitely wouldn’t have worn those shoes if I knew we were going to be out at 2am still 💀

[short oasis]

Thank you :’) I loved that dress I need to find another excuse to wear it

[vestal ingot]

just at home to chill in

get your money's worth 😂

[short oasis]

I almost wanted to wear it to NYE tbh but I have another dress that I’ve been needing an excuse to wear and I think I could make it work with the theme

If Chicago had been a tulle theme night I would’ve worn it then

[vestal ingot]

I did not think that night was gonna go on as late as it did, but I'm glad it did🥰

[short oasis]

^^^

It was quite literally one of the best nights of my life

[vestal ingot]

I'd be hard pressed to think of a better one

[short oasis]

Chicago is a close contender for me tbh I’ll see how new years goes and rank them

This might still be on top though bc I got to meet all of you on top of the band

[vestal ingot]

Feb road trip is gonna be insane 😋 but for me idk if anything will top the first time getting to meet and hang out with the band, y'know?

I'm glad New York was my last abroad trip of the year, that shit is gonna keep me going for aaaages

[short oasis]

I’ve been lucky enough to meet them 3 separate times and every time I’m like “that was the best night of my life” 😅 GTT was top tier though bc it was so intimate and so many great ppl around us

[runic sleet]

Looooove reading all these comments about our party ♥️

[vestal ingot]

Honestly can't wait for you guys to cross the pond!! 😋

[runic sleet]

We’re close to confirming something. What UK artist should we book? Was thinking Billie Marten, Arlo Parks or Rachel Chinouriri.

[elfin roost]

oh my god if you got billie marten i might be making a trip to europe (assuming i had time to like plan something like that)

[unreal wind]

oooooh, arlo would be so sick

[dry trellis]

i am a big advocate for sammy copley (irish though but wants to do stuff in the uk)

[vestal ingot]

If you got Ruti I'd simply pass away

Or Tom Misch

[unreal wind]

that would eat i fear

i’ve never been to the uk so pls give me more reasons to update my passport lmao

[vestal ingot]

But honestly whichever artist it ends up being I'd still come, it's bound to be a great time

I'd just swot up on their discography beforehand 😂😂

[dull vapor]

maisie peters

[proven raptor]

So nice to see new pictures of everyone! I think about this night all the time!

[proven raptor]

Oh it will be!

[blissful scarab]

OMF OMF OMG HUGE

guys i look so crazy here why am i giving eric crazy eyes 👀

[vestal ingot]

You don't look crazy 😂 you look happy! 😋

[blissful scarab]

thanks for saying that lol

[vestal ingot]

You honestly look thrilled, it's precious 🥹 for the one where it's just me sobbing I think I look constipated 😭 but I hope it's just me thinking that 😂

everyone else looks normal here 😂😂

[blissful scarab]

u look so incredibly normal

[blissful scarab]

i see crazy eyes here but i know i’m just SO jazzed to be getting a poster from eric 😂

[vestal ingot]

deeply offended at this /j

[worthy gazelle]

I thought the only picture I made it into was a sliver of my back and shoulder, and then I saw this! Yay!

[blissful scarab]

you look beautiful!! @worthy gazelle

[worthy gazelle]

Thank you! I almost didn't recognize myself when I was scrolling through the photos 🤣

[vestal ingot]

my darlings my loves it is HERE

@quaint solar this one 😂😂

[blissful scarab]

https://linktr.ee/thewildhoneypie?mc_cid=4f6272ac55&mc_eid=b7baac8c02

@runic sleet is hiring in case anyone is curious 👀

eric if u see this i am a diligent follower of ur newsletter 😜

[stone cipher]

I put a pic of Eric handing me the Sammy Rae sticker on my dating profile and I just feel the need to update you all that so many people have sent a message on that photo saying he looks like Tobey Maguire or a Culkin brother- he’s arguably more popular than I am on my own profile

[vestal ingot]

@runic sleet you're in demand in Oklahoma 😂

[quaint solar]

can you share the pic here? I wanna see toby maguire

[stone cipher]

As seen on my hinge profile

[severe plank]

Yeah he looks exactly like Kieran Culkin

Which is crazy because the actual Kieran Culkin walked past us outside the venue when we were waiting

[dull vapor]

what????

[severe plank]

Yeah he walked past us with a pizza box and I looked it up when I got back to my hotel and he lives in that neighborhood

He frequents the bar across the street

[vestal ingot]

Oh my god?? 😂😂

[vestal ingot]

Bold move to have your actual fiancé on your dating profile smh 😤

[severe plank]

It was fucking crazy

[vestal ingot]

I see the resemblance to both Culkin and Maguire ahaha

[stone cipher]

Bahaha gotta break it to them one way or another

[blissful scarab]

WAIT THERES ANOTHER RELEASE PARTY??

[proven raptor]

I’ll be so sad to miss it. That is the date of my rehearsal dinner (brunch in reality) as I get married on Sept 21st. I’m probably already going to miss the North Charleston show as it is. But if it is real I know yall will have the best time! ❤️

[dry trellis]

since their next album releases next week it'd be a little late to throw it a party in september

[proven raptor]

Yea definitely misunderstood the other day. Haha. Still sad to miss it as I won’t be able to make it work without more notice at work. 😦 but I know whoever makes it will have the best time

[dull vapor]

does anyone remember the name of the afterafterparty bar? with the excellent frozen piña coladas? @runic sleet

[severe plank]

With the pizza? Or was that another one?

[dull vapor]

the one after the pizza!

we went to a bar

[severe plank]

Oooh yeah idk about that

Do you remember the name of the pizza place? I literally cannot find it lmao

[dull vapor]

paulie gee's?

[severe plank]

Yup you did it

[dull vapor]

now i just need someone to do that for me with the bar lol

[severe plank]

I unfortunately went back to the hotel from Paulie gee's

[dull vapor]

yeah i thought you left earlier

someone must know

[severe plank]

I was eepy

[vernal grove]

It's called Broken Land I believe??

[vernal grove]

Tagging u!

[quaint solar]

yeah i have exactly one accidental picture from that bar, the ceiling and the pillar we sat behind to hide

the address is 103 Franklin St, Brooklyn, which does appear to be Broken Land on the maps!

does this ceiling look familiar to anybody else? 😆

[vestal ingot]

Lmao actually it kinda does 😂😂

[dull vapor]

legend thank you!!!

i remember the hanging stars

[vernal grove]

Yaaaay I gotchu

[short oasis]

This is what the location of this photo of Jack at that bar says

(Ik we figured it out but I wanted to send the photo again)

[vestal ingot]

I had forgotten just how noodley that boy is

[dull vapor]

incredible

[stone cipher]

I love the special bond this chat has- longest running tour chat thread! None of my other past ones are still active

And I have had an excuse to join a lot of them

[short oasis]

Ik 🥹 bonded for life from that experience

[proven raptor]

A life changing night will do that haha. We’re all bonded forever

[vernal grove]

Still thinking abt this almost a year later 😭

How has it been that long?!?!?

[vestal ingot]

A real good time

[short oasis]

My life was quite literally changed bc of that night

….For no particular reason at all..

[short oasis]

Happy one year y’all ❤️
