Who is Kimbra? You’ll know her best from the Somebody I Used to Know video, but that’s besides the point. The point is she’s got a number one fan right here, who is ready to tell all other number one fans and anyone disinterested, how to best prepare for a concert in which Kimbra will be headlining, in the ever-obnoxious city of Los Angeles. (P.S. I love L.A.)

1. Buff your hair up the day before. This will do nothing for your hair come concert time, but it is how you get in the mood.

2. Make a Kimbra playlist and play it on repeat until someone tells you “If I hear Cameo Lover one more time I’m turning this car around.”

 3. Make sure to remind everyone you know that you are seeing Kimbra tomorrow night at the Music Box at the Fonda in Hollywood at 8pm row GA4 Seats 3,4 Floor

4. Semi-obsessively, ogle over the picture/gif/video treasure that is the Kimbra tumblr account with your mouth half open and your eyes all glazed like you’re seeing diamonds for the first time.

5. Find your outfit in your sister’s closet. Or go to the nearest Forever 21 with that birthday gift card when she says no, and take endless pictures of yourself in every dress in the fitting room until you reach absolutely no decision.

6. And then decide on one.

Ok seriously.

Make sure to tell everyone confused about your decision that you intend to make the dress poofy underneath, channeling the Two-Way Street video.

7. Make sure your camera, video recorder, and lipstick are charged up and ready to go.

 8. Check the Kimbra Facebook page so you can see if she is as excited as you to perform in L.A. (she is).

9. Make sure she’s actually in L.A. via Instagram

(she is, that’s her band.)

10. And finally…GET THE FUCK EXCITED CAUSE KIMBRA’S ABOUT TO ROCK YOUR FUCKING TOWN!

And you’d better believe I’m gonna tell you all the fuck about it.

      Haha, thanks Vania! When you’re obsessed with an artist, you tend to go a little crazay with the preparation, haha :)
