MGMT

In their electrifying performance at Bonnaroo in June 2008, MGMT was riding high off the success of their debut album, "Oracular Spectacular," which had been released just a few months earlier in October 2007. This album showcased hits like 'Time to Pretend' and 'Electric Feel,' capturing the spirit of the time with its blend of psychedelic pop and indie rock. The band's dynamic stage presence during the live recording reflects how well they had connected with their audience—those songs were fresh, and the crowd was buzzing with excitement. Interestingly, MGMT's sound would later evolve, but this performance stands as a memorable snapshot of their early days, marked by youthful energy and the kind of carefree enthusiasm that only a festival like Bonnaroo can inspire.
