MGMT Live Performance of 'Kids' at The Tabernacle in Atlanta, GA

Venue: Orpheum Theatre Location: Memphis, Tennessee, United States Date: November 23, 2013

In November 2013, MGMT was riding high on the waves of their self-titled third album, released just earlier that year. This live performance of 'Kids' at the Tabernacle in Atlanta showcases the band's signature blend of psychedelic rock and synth-pop that first captivated audiences with their debut album, 'Oracular Spectacular.' Interestingly, 'Kids' became an anthem for many, embodying themes of youth and its fleeting nature, which resonated deeply during their rise to fame. The band's experimental sound and artistic evolution marked a pivotal moment in their career, as they began to explore new musical territories, stepping away from the mainstream hits of their earlier work while still thrilling longtime fans. This performance symbolizes a transitional phase where MGMT was embracing their artistic identity, making it not just a concert, but a moment of creative reflection.
