I have to disagree. I saw them Last year at Voodoo Fest (where they dressed up as The Mystery Gang from Scooby Doo) and while they weren't the best show I've ever seen they were still pretty awesome. It may have been the three blunts I smoked, but MGMT not only seemed to be really enjoying themselves but the entire crowd was definitely into it.

I feel like most people who dislike their show are the same who hated Congratulations because it didn't have sugary as fuck singles like: Kids, Time to Pretend, etc.

During the show MGMT waited a while to play Kids because they knew that a lot of the audience only wanted to hear it and would leave immediately after. Near the end they said they would play Kids after the next song and dedicated the next song to "the stoners in the crowd" and proceeded to play Siberian Breaks (for those who don't know the song is around 12 min long and is made up of 8 mini songs). Every time a mini song would end a bulk of the audience would cheer and clap because they thought Kids was coming on. This happened again and again and again and it was the best troll to all the Congratulations-haters because they became more and more indignant as the song went on until the began acting like spoiled 6 year olds.
