When we met, we were having a heck of a week. We had been to a handful of shows already that week and had fun stories to share. We have a habit of being in the right place at the right time. That week was no exception, we had met a lead singers family and had gotten guest listed to Lollapalooza for one day. We were putting Covid behind us and having a great time.
*video included below
The up and coming band that guest listed us also would make us late getting in line for the late night show we were all meeting up at. My daughter would reach out to Angel to ask if she would hold our spot in line, she would agree.
So we show up and all of us are sharing stories and having a good time while we waited hours for the show. We made new friends and saw a few we knew from before. One of the stories was about meeting the parents of the singer and being guest listed. We were all sharing stories and we were not making a point to be rude or to brag. It is just fun stories people will sometimes tell. We are always happy to hear about anyone else’s good fortune.
We all enjoyed the show and a few of us would meet up the following day. We raced to the barricade would scream at the top of our lungs. It was the best time and we agreed to do it again. After the second performer finished their set we would go to the back of the field and make plans for the next event.
Angel had plans to visit a friend the weekend of the smaller festival near my hometown but I would later find out she LIED to get out of those plans. She would tell her friend she was offered to work for one of the bands we would follow over the summer. We were with her the whole time she was not approached nor did she work the event she told her friend she would be working, we were with her the whole time at that festival too. Again, this was a LIE, one of many.
I invited our three new friends to stay at our house and I would drive them to the festival. Plans were made, tickets were purchased and we would see one another at Summerfest as well.
After this nearby festival I would drive Angel more than 30 minutes to the bus station. On the way she started telling stories too. One of these stories was to say that she worked for an up and coming band that had a sexually allegation against them. The story would go that she was taking photographs for this band.
She would then let us in on the secret, she had been treated so badly by the female lead singer that she cried every night.
She didn’t just drop a few tears, she would cry to the headliner of that tour. He is a great guy and one of our favorites actually, but he is a feel good piano. She said he felt so bad that he kicked this other band off halfway through the tour. She said she wouldn’t tell us what happened but she told a few of her other friends.
Angel would take the story that was floating around about a sexual assault claim and make it hers. She had two versions on that a band member assaulted her and the other that is was the lead singer. Given her fabrication of so many other things I am confident when I say this also did not happen. When we went to a show for this piano guy this past year he did not recognize her, you would think someone you fired an entire band over would be someone you would remember. One of her other friends would share a photo that I remember seeing before. It was Angel wearing one of the awful looking orange shirts from his band. I asked about the shirt and I was informed that Angel never worked for them, they were offered a free shirt if they volunteered for them that one day.
On to LIE three of this blog, the more time we would spend together the more she would LIE obviously. SO next LIE, she kept trying to tell us how she had worked for this angsty political band that we were all following that summer. She would tell us she worked for them during the NY State Fair helping with merch. Never cared much to remember the finer details, it was definitely that she helped them set up. This was a show that none of us were at to verify but again, how could this be the one thing she told the truth about…so we won’t count this one just yet. So she claimed to know all of these bands but this one in particular she would have the lead singer introduce her to his mother. Did you catch that, he would introduce her to his mother??? Odd when she said his mother mentioned knowing who she was from twitter…sound familiar? His mother did not like many of her tweets as Angel would say she did. Yes, I did in fact meet a lead singer’s mother and yes we do follow one another on a social app. It isn’t a big deal but it is a fun story. When you question this chance meeting also keep in mind that she also said she met the mother of another well known female lead rock band. Sure maybe that could have happened but what I know for sure did not happen, she was never offered a job with this rock band.
She faked a conversation with the “assistant tour manager” much like she faked other conversations with other band members. She would fake texts from them saying the had gifted her money, always $300 dollars, always. She would be gifted tickets because the guest list was always full. She would also say she was in a relationship with the female leads as well.
One fake conversation that was annoying was her saying she had been reached out to by one of the new small bands that were out touring for the first time. The LIE was he reached out and said he wasn’t contacting her to send “dic pics”. When she went to send him a snap my daughter was looking over her shoulder and would see her send it to someone else. Angel spotted her and then would type wrong person. We had been suspecting that she was lying and by this time we were set to catch her.
What LIE are we on now??? Okay well same day we were at the store and she said this band who’s name is all numbers reached out to ask her if she wanted to do some work for him. I said I couldn’t make the one date but maybe the second one. This was a trend for her.
She would LIE about the circumstances so I would drive her to a show.
One such show was a 12 hour drive, yes 12 hours. Did she reimburse me for gas, no. Did she reimburse me for hotel, no. Did she at least buy my ticket, nope. At one point I got $200 bucks, that did not put a dent in what I spent. There would be thousands of miles that I would put on my car on her behalf but she would tell people that I was abusive. I did these things because I was under the impression that she was an abuse victim, she turned out to be the abuser.
All of these bands and their stories are strange because whenever we watched them interact with her they seemed uncomfortable with her, she lingered too long and they never had anything to say for being such great friends. They either did not know her…or they did and did not like her
When you lie about small things, no one can trust you about the big things…
Here is Angel admitting to not knowing one of these bands very well and having LIED about the snapchat story…made smaller clips this time
