Ash:

The last few weeks had been a blur, now that Gerald was locked up, Lo and I were able to have some peace, and even though the trial had brought us closer in the moment, we were drifting again. I absolutely hated it, it didn't make sense why she was being so distant, dare I say cold?

because the trial was over, I had been able to stop PRing with Matty, although we remained on close terms. I had also been able to come clean about the trial and Gerald, but they were consistent about not letting anyone know about Lo. It makes her mad, but I see where they are coming from. It's not about my sexuality, (I'm open about that) it's more about protecting her.

I had gained a decent fan base since the trial, I have a show tonight at House of Blues, in Chicago. It wasn't the biggest venue I had played, but it was cool! Lo had flown back home for a bit. Camila was having troubles with the baby, and Lauren wanted to be there to help.

I didn't question her when she wanted to go visit Camz, maybe I should've, but I didn't want to mess with Lo. Her best friend was pregnant and she was just a mess. I hate describing her that way, but it's the truth.

I was at the venue 6 hours early, just to work out the set-list and effects, because I didn't want something to happen in the middle of a song. That's why we were always there early, that way, I could have more creative freedom, and I could learn that side of the business.

--

hours passed, and before I knew it, I was getting ready to start the show.

"Ash." I heard a woman say "Good luck out there."

"Thanks." I nodded,grabbing the microphone and flipping it. As soon as I went on the stage

everyone went crazy

"CHICAGO" I shouted into the microphone, looking at the crowd "HOW YA'LL DOIN TONIGHT?!?!"

Screams filled the venue.

"I need y'all to scream these lyrics if you know em!" I stomped my foot, and waited for the song to start.

As soon as it did, the crowd list it

Cigarettes
And tiny liquor bottles
Just what you'd expect
Inside her new Balenciaga
Viral mess
Turned dreams into an empire
Self-made success now she rolls with Rockafellers

Survival of the richest
The city's ours until the fall
They're Monaco and Hamptons bound
But we don't feel like outsiders at all

We are the new Americana
High on legal marijuana
Raised on Biggie and Nirvana
We are the new Americana

Young James Dean
Some say he looks just like his father
But he
Could never love somebody's daughter
Football team
Loved more than just the game
So he vowed to be
His husband at the altar

Survival of the richest
The city's ours until the fall
They're Monaco and Hamptons bound
But we don't feel like outsiders at all

We are the new Americana
High on legal marijuana
Raised on Biggie and Nirvana
We are the new Americana

We know very well
Who we are
So we hold it down
When summer starts
What kind of dough
Have you been spending?
What kind of bubblegum
Have you been blowing lately?

We are the new Americana
High on legal marijuana
Raised on Biggie and Nirvana
We are the new Americana

We are the new Americana
High on legal marijuana
Raised on Biggie and Nirvana
We are the new Americana

I finished the song, and I sang a few more.

Ghost
Tilt You Back
Slow
Is there Somewhere
and
Finally//Beautiful Stranger
