MGMT Performs 'Kids' Live at KROQ Weenie Roast

Venue: Ancienne Belgique Club Location: Brussels, Brussels-Capital Region, Belgium Date: April 30, 2008

In May 2008, MGMT was riding high on the success of their debut album, "Oracular Spectacular," released just a few months earlier in October 2007. This record was a game changer, catapulting them into the mainstream with hits like "Kids" and "Time to Pretend." The KROQ Weenie Roast performance in Brussels captures their raw, enchanting energy, showcasing their knack for blending indie rock with a psychedelic flair. Interestingly, their sound was often described as a fresh take on the pop-rock landscape, appealing to both indie fans and mainstream audiences alike. The live recording might have had some sound issues from the rear, but from the audience perspective, the vibe was electric, proving MGMT was on the brink of becoming a household name.
