MGMT Tickets

i had heard from a few friends that MGMT, in the past, were fairly bad live but i was hoping after a year or so of touring with a great album this would no longer be the case...ohh...no luck there. they were awful. the sound quality was awful...the warm up band was lounder and much clearer, the were so boring to watch that it didn't make a difference that i could see the stage perfectly...no engery, no passion, worst song order ever (who ends the night with an almost ballad that no one has ever heard before!) PLEASE PLEASE someone help produce their concerts! the music is fantastic but they are not living up to their name and are in dire need of new management...

MGMT's music is great, however their stage presence is forgettable. Their interaction with the crowd is non existant, the overall loudness of their music was so low I didn't even need to yell to speak to my friends and I was about 80 yards from the stage. While their play list was good, I wish I could have gotten more into it.

Great show, loved the new songs and the stage lights were great. Also loved the addition of the funk guitar - it really brought out the psychedelic aspect of the band and was great for the park atmosphere. That being said, they could have given the keyboard more volume - especially on songs like Time to Pretend, but it could have just been that the sound was lost in the park.

The band put on a great performance, and had very cool and trippy background lights and screens. The songs from their first CD were performed exceptionally well, and were improvised frequently to include intervals of instrumental jams and lead-ins to other songs. The focus was primarily on musicianship, and I enjoyed every minute. The band's new music, I suppose which will be released in the coming months on a new CD, was very country-western based. It had twangs of Hawaii Five-O along with James Bond theme song-based undertones, and the occasional slower blues. I enjoyed the new stuff, but It's going to take some getting used to.

MGMT last night was epic. The songs, the atmosphere, the fireworks display, it all tied together to make a fantastic concert experience. And the weather actually cooperated!!

They could have talked a little bit more- the show felt really short, but the lights and the sound was fantastic!

And also rocked out at times. Loved the hits and dug the lesser known songs!

This so was an amazing experience! It was almost as if a festival came to Brooklyn. The band played really well too. A lot of there songs sounded better than the album versions which is hard to come by these days.

several songs were a blast, but overall the performance was lack-luster. the band seemed a bit inexperienced to handle such a large outdoor space. slow songs got lost. the set could have used more of the 'kids' and 'time to pretend'-like energy. i'd consider seeing MGMT again, but at a smaller indoor venue like bowery or music hall of wmsbrg

The opening acts, Sucker and Kumora, showed some potential, but were not quite ready for the big stage. This was more then made up for by MGMT. This was the first time I saw them live, and they were much better than I expected. I will definitely see them again after they release more recorded material.

awesome show - great venue. really cool that they had a few fireworks to celebrate upcoming fourth of july...

I saw MGMT as opening band for Beck in October at United Palace of last year. The show lasted 35 minutes and the sound was terrible. Andrew V did not talk at all to the local crowd which was expecting them to be as entertaining as Beck, or even better. Very disappointing at that time. Now in Prospect Park, in Brooklyn - their neighborhood - we could at least expect a greater performance. I went there to see them again without high expectation since open air concerts are rarely very good for the acoustics. What a disappointment, the singer still has a very weak and gauzy voice - arrangements in studio for the album are amazing... They played a couple of rocky new tunes which were ok, but the whole band lacked energy and pep. Basically, some bands are better live than on their cds - MGMT are definitely the opposite.

MGMT music is super awesome. However during the concert they are very static, they kick started the show with one of their new songs and the audience simply stood there in a puzzle. Overall, it felt like people paid money to see them on one of their rehearsals, but nevertheless, we still had fun.

MGMT was fantastic. Good vibe. Prospect Park was easy to find and get around in !

Surprise, surprise - for a 2 person act, with 3 additional session guys live.. they did a great job. Unlike alot of the DJ inspired music being sold as original today, these guys are "real deal" musicians. They bring back a lot of 60's and 70's influences to create a new fresh sound. See them if you can - D.

Not only was this a great show (although the main act seemed a little short in length), but this is one of the best crowds I have been a part of in YEARS - great vibes, friendly, no pushing, just a little making out here and there (who knew MGMT was love music?) I love this venue, and would definitely see MGMT or any of my other favorite bands here again.

They are still the same as 2 years ago. Nothing new relevant.

the show was way to short (1 hour max), but they did play all the favorites. while those were great, they ended the show with a slow new song. not the best way in my opinion.

MGMT was great live--they slowed down and funkified the songs on their album. Their musicianship was precise and completely in synch. They played four songs from the new album and it sounds promising. See them live if you can!

They weren't that great live. I could have sat outside and listened to the show. A little boring.
