Boring boring boring

  • February 27, 2008
  • Popjustice

We went to see MGMT last night and were treated to the (in some ways) impress­ive sight of several men taking a very listen­able album and, via the magic of live musi­cian­ship, making it seem terrible.

Christ on a bike they were boring. There were several lengthy muso spag-outs and they didn't play 'Kids', one of the handful of songs they are currently using to make people think they are good.

Also one of them was wearing a gold blouse.

IMPARTIAL ADVICE TO MGMT
1. Get a drum machine
2. Sort out some sort of laser show or glitter cannon
3. Etc

One of the people we were with is a fan of Proper Music and liked the big muso spag-out at the end so if you like Proper Music maybe you too will enjoy the MGMT live exper­i­ence.

For political reasons we would like to point out that last night's event, an NME-sponsored show put on in the run-up to tomorrow's NME Awards, was
otherwise extremely well organised and enjoyable.
