MGMT

Caught The Whitest Boy Alice and MGMT live on 24/03/11.
I really enjoyed myself that night. Muon(postrock local band) opened for them and I got in half-way through their set. I've heard their stuff during the Mosaic fest and I'm not a much of a fan of their music, but I think there were quite a few in the audience that enjoyed their set. I think I would've appreciated it more if their frontmen(well, I don't know whether postrock bands have one but it was the only guy that talked on the mic) sounded more enthusiastic. He was just so. monotonous. But anyway, TWBA was gooood. Actually I'm not such a big fan of them because erm I just think that Erlend's voice makes all his songs sound the same(including Kings of Conveniences') but. IT WAS STILL FUN + He is v cute.

I loved MGMT! I don't really care so much that the ~critics~ say that they're not good live but HEY! You make your own happy fun times in these sort of situations. It did help that the crowd(at least in my area) was pretty good (especially relative to esplanade crowds - blargh, they're a terrible bunch). So very happy when they played The Youth, Kids(Oh, I know, I know) and Brian Eno!

Other than this, so far this year I've caught Blonde Redhead, 65daysofstatic(!!!!!!!) and d.v.d. Yeah, I should record gigs that I've been going to down before they just diminish into nothingness in my mind. So yes, that's what my blog seems to be for.
