Jamming to Mohabbet!
OH my god. I would love to win these tickets! I had gone to see her at Holocene… whenever that was, was SO excited… had gotten a dinner date with my friend just before and got SO SICK I had to leave after the opener, so didn’t get to see her! I was so sad! I have loved the recorded stuff and would love to ACTUALLY see her live.
I love this music!
I’m in this sounds great!
