I posted earlier on how well this show went for us…check it out and read the comments, someone vehemently disagreed with me.
I Found this on YT just now (I’m not monitoring, or nothing); a little better sound quality than the Kids video I posted earlier.
Here’s Time to Pretend…
If last night’s MGMT concert was prologue to what’s in store this Halloween weekend. Holy. Toledo.
Dressed handsomely as a mariachi band, they put a hurting on Webster Hall in NYC last night. I scored a ticket last minute, because somebody wanted to go see Philadelphia burn. Sports and Rock n’ Roll converge, and everybody wins. It’s a beautiful thing.
Check out the song that got this band signed, Kids. Got to battle horrendous fan vocal stylings (from what sounds like a singular douche, possibly the same guy with camera) – par for the course with in-crowd videos. The highlight comes about 3:00 minutes in; I’ll give you a hint: it’s shredding.
If anyone gets their hands on photos or the cover of ‘Girls Just Want to Have Fun’, send it my way!
From the band that incited bikini-clad slip n’ slide at McCarren Park Pool this Summer…
Here’s MGMT’s new video for “The Youth”…
That was directed by Eric, of Tim & Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! fame (Adult Swim)
Here’s a sweet wedding band that played some nuptials I was at last weekend.
They annihilated Otis Redding’s Try a Little Tenderness, obviously.
The Ting Tings were fantastic opening for MGMT on Sunday, and I think I’m in love with their Dublin lass lead vocalist.
…the other band that opened – Black Moth Super Rainbow – was a super waste of my time. See more Tings Tings after the links:
NBC’s Music Lineup For The Olympics (Awful Announcing)
WARREN SAPP ON DANCING WITH THE STARS? (The World of Isaac)
I Hate It When People Say Things (Fire Joe Morgan)
Border Patrol (And One)
Deco: The Definition Of A Dog (Deuce of Davenport)
MGMT went from covering This Must Be the Place at Zonker Harris (??) Day, to this…
It’s been an upwardly mobile few years for MGMT. It’d be irresponsible not to also embed girls in bikinis getting their slip n’ slide on, which also happened at the McCarren Park pool yesterday.
…Here they are doing Invisible Touch back in their Wesleyan days too. (Collins? Hell yeah)
MGMT at McCarren Park Pool this coming Sunday is the Rock ‘n Roll social event of the week. (it’s free too!)
Check out a video after the linking gold…
