Connan Mockasin - Bardot - Miami, FL (Dec 3rd, 2015)

[hotwaxmusic]

Some pics of Miami from a trip I took last week to see Connan Mockasin. It poured the whole time, but it was still a fun trip despite the deluge.

Haven’t really been feeling this whole Tumblr thing for the past few months. I’m going to post my Favorites of 2015 on Saturday and then probably bounce. See you guys when I see you.

My incredible girlfriend @kelseyamerzeebra filled my queue with lovely aesthetically pleasing things because I have been on a hiatus with school, work, and other time consuming activities.

You should follow her.

Make her day.

My birthday is December 20th, and the birthday gift I’d enjoy the most is someone taking me to go see Connan Mockasin perform live in Miami on Dec 3rd.
