I've seen MGMT 3 times in the last year, almost to the date (July 27). I saw them @ McCarren Pool, Webster Hall and most recently @ Prospect Park. I can admit that I love MGMT's music, I've been listening to their album for a year now...daily. In all honesty I think their perfomance was garbage and they're not experienced enough yet to be a good live band. The Webster Hall show was byfar the best IMO.
MGMT sold out in a few hours when they went on sale wheneever. People on craigslist were trying to sell ticket for as much as $125 a ticket. This is MGMT, not the Led Zeppelin. But through my ways, I got a ticket for face value, which was a great success.
You gotta love prospect park. I love the vibe of the place, very peaceful. I love how you can find a spot on the grass to set up shop. I wish I had gotten to the show earlier because I like walking around the park and all that, but then again, had I gone any earlier, I wouldn't have met these girls.

*We all know that MGMT sounds better on record but after listening to "Congratulations" after the show, I actually like it a lot.
Nothing special,
