Oh lordy, short dream last night with an MGMT appearance.

So I'm grading papers at an outdoor cafe somewhere near an ocean or sea.  And all the sudden I hear music start to play and a crowd forms around a little makeshift stage.  It was MGMT!  So I abandoned my papers and went over, but in the time it took me to get closer, a bunch of other people had joined them on stage.  The crowd loved them and were singing along with whatever the hell they were singing.  Then one of my annoying freshman stands right in front of me and starts taking pictures and I said, "get out of the way, you fucking idiot!"  Not very teacherly of me.  But then MGMT goes, "LET'S GO SWIMMING!" and everyone ran for the lovely body of water.  I saw Cam Avery from The Growl and was like, "Oh my God Cam, you have the most amazing voice!" and he seemed shocked by that.  So everyone was playing in the water and having fun when this total dick decides to tie me to himself using fishing wire.  He was evil.  I yelled to Cam to save me and I woke up as he was running over.

Weird.

haha that is weird and cool, even weirder is that in real life Tame Impala announced today that Cam Avery has replaced Nick Allbrook playing bass for their live shows!

No shit, for real?  I have mixed emotions on that.  I love Cam, but I'll miss watching Nick doing silly things on stage.

i know i feel the same way. i loved how nick was so staunch and spacey on stage... it was his decision though. probably to focus more on pond, i dunno. its sad though!

"...due to the label not getting clearance from Sony for the MGMT track"

maaaaaaaan we should send sony a strongly worded letter

lol its not really posting weong information or too soon when we ordered it from a legitimate website and were waiting for it

anyways, im sooo disappointed, this is really poopy!

wow... this is really strange to hear. im also in shock. i had a similar experience with a crazed fan gettin wild, this girl kept goin crazy in front of me screaming andrews name and being so wild... not just enjoying the concert, thats fine, but like on something and jumping allover everyone. she ended up trying to rush the stage and security threw her out! im surprised security wasnt all over the fights at your show. that really sucks and it really doesnt suiit the kind of music at all! id be disappionted.... hope this was a one time thing. if they ruined i found a whistle i'd sob.

Yeah I got the postcard weeks ago. I have my card with me, but I haven't heard of anyone having any sort of special discounts or merch or anything. I'll report back in about 36 hours.

on tumblr some girl showed her card and got a bag of mgmt merch for free (i think)!!

I really wish I knew this 2 weeks ago. I thought that Funzone section was to get people to sign up, so I didn't even bother asking about renewing, or anything.

aww thats okay, like they said you'll geta chance to renew when the album comes out. as for the free stuff, hopefully there's always next time! im still waiting on my postcard

I have heard the golden throne, good track! I'm also looking forward to their album and a North American tour. they're playing a lot of shows in the uk so I'm thinking they should be coming soon. I'm gonna try to look for their EP again thanks for the heads up!

it's high time for a thread for this cool klub!
who's in the fuNzOne!?


thanks to Fetusfryer for the update on the klub... as he/she stated, there will be a postcard sent to members saying this:

Hello Funzone Member,

MGMT has a new album coming this summer and will start playing live dates this week.

We hope to see you at the show! Be sure to bring your Funzone membership card. Look for the Funzone sign at the merchandise booth and show your card to the merch peeps to find out what's happening in the Funzone. And you can post in the MGMT forums to meet other Funzone members at the shows. We have some fun surprises lined up for some shows and we want you to be a part of it.

We're receiving emails asking about Funzone membership renewals and they will be available in conjunction with the release of the new album. Funzone members will be sent coupon codes for a discount on the pre-sale of our new album and membership renewal. If your current membership is recently expired, don't worry, bring your card to the spring/summer shows.

Hey, send us a letter!
