UPDATED: MGMT second Ambassador date yet to materialise

A second MGMT show in The Ambassador that was mooted to go on sale today has failed to materialise.

The Hot Press Newsdesk, 14 Jul 2008

Hot Press understands that there’s still a possibility that Messrs. Golsdwasser and VanWygarden – is that not the coolest name in rock? – will be extending their Dublin stay. We’ll keep you posted.

If you were among the huge army of fans who couldn’t get into the Pet Sounds tent to see MGMT at Oxegen, fear not, because Messrs. Goldwasser and VanWyngarden are playing the Dublin Ambassador on November 3.

Just added to the bill are Canadian new wavers Violens, gaining momentum on the back of debut single 'Trance Like Turn'.

Adding to the Punchestown mayhem was an errant female punter’s decision to scale one of the tent’s lattice support towers. This triggered a spate of copycat climbing and security having to shut-down the gig for 20 minutes while order was restored.

Live at the Olmpia, Dublin

Performing against a backdrop of psychedelic visuals, much of the performance sees the band getting their avant-pop groove on. You can hear touches of Bowie, Barrett and sundry ’60s art-rock oddballs throughout the show

OMG It's MGMT

They may have been one of the electro-pop sensations of the past few years, with some serious hit singles to their name. But with their second album, Congratulations, MGMT have flipped controversially into another dimension. So how come they’re so intent on leaving pop behind? And can they bring their audience with them?
