If I wasn’t headed to Treasure Island Music Festival in San Francisco♥ this weekend, I most definitely would be hitting up the Scion Garage Fest in Portland, Oregon. And if I wasn’t able to do that, I’d be hitting up the Rumble in Ramona! Sorry LA, there’s just too much good shit going on this weekend to put you on the top of my list. Love you nonetheless.
