Oh God, another MGMT post!

I wonder if Beck is bringing MGMT along to help with ticket sales.

"I wonder if Beck is bringing MGMT along to help with ticket sales."

Yeah dope cause Beck is gonna need help selling this place out. Sure

And warning to all if you dare post the mistake made in what BV wrote I am personally gonna find you and kick the ever loving shit out of you. Just Shut the fuck up.

beck will have no problem selling out this place i just hope that he may do another "secret" show at a place like hiro again

What is a hipster?

BV gave the wrong password, 12:10?

12:10, where is the love? Seek therapy.

"Oh God, another MGMT post!"

It's a Beck post.

Of course he's bringing along MGMT to boost ticket sales. Why else would he have these guys open - do you really think Beck is a huge MGMT fan? Unlikely.

no, he forgot the vowels in "The Management"

you forgot to post you're supporting scientology by attending.

I'm letting all yalls know now, I'm cutting the line.

There's nothing wrong with what BV posted.

Presale is on August 1st (Friday) @ 10:30 a.m.

Pass = modern

I am proud to say I hate Beck solely because of his religion!

I'd like to see Beck here. I've seen Beck 2x, both in extreme situations (Bonnaroo and Angel Oransanz). A regular show would be nice.

You think he'll add some weekend shows?

"There's nothing wrong with what BV posted."

Yes of course exactly. It is perfectly correct. Now STFU and stop talking about it.

Is there an itunes presale for this show(with the codes we got) or no?

The password isn't ORPHANS?

....ugh MGMT, I saw them once and I thought it was 1986...

Actually this is a good thing. The password might be modern or it might be orphans. Someone got it wrong although i do know which is the right one. So have fun trying both on Friday. I will have already gotten into the system and got my ticket upfront.

when i was younger i used to think beck was so super creative. now that i am older and more informed i realize he has essentially made a career of ripping off previously existing sounds and aesthetics.

case in point, these ridiculous 'jan-beck' esque promos. don't insult my intelligence thetan IV.

what are you talking about 12:55?

49? I can't. I hope he plays a secret show or anything like that for less.

im talking about the fact that beck's "influences" are painfully evident on every album and throughout all of his reinventions, but never actually credited or even mentioned.

in academics, that is called plagiarism.

EDUARDO!!! GIVE ME YOUR MONEY!!! TOM CRUISE DEMANDS IT!!!

Scientology isn't even remotely good.

I swear if BV posted that the weather was nice on a cloudless 75 degree day, there would be 65 f'in' posts debating it and/or trashing it

a musician that has influences is the worst

how long before beck converts MGMT to scientology?

Cloudless days = skin cancer

I wish it would rain

I think someone should buy out Beck's next show...and give the tickets away in three shares to the following groups:

Lubavitcher Hasidic Jews
Hare Krishnas
Jews For Jesus...

that would make me smile for months

what time will MGMT come on for this show

i wanna make sure i don't miss them
is beck good should i stay for his show
i wanna make sure i get a ticket since i missed them this past sunday stuck on line

this post is influenced by 12:55

what's up with all the hasidics at the MGMT show
seriously
i'm like crossing the street from mc carren and one stops me to know if this is where MGMT are playing!!!
no lie or fake joke
i'm serious

How about you apply some common sense before asking these questions?

On TM.com, it says 7pm show. Assuming the standard concert policy applied by nearly every venue, 7pm doors, 8pm opening band.

Please don't buy tickets for MGMT only. You had so many chances to see them over the past year. They are not worth $50. Beck is great and last time I checked you don't have to agree with his religious views to enjoy his music. Go for Beck or both.

who is beck?

can i expect a raging woodrow wilson??

does he/she have big thingys???

i didn't know about them a year ago
magawd!
sorry i don't know standard concert time either
so kill me, but thank you for now informing me
and what do you mean don't come to see mgmt
this site is what came up when i google mgmt concerts
this isn't a mgmt fan site?

Hey I said I was an asshole so I gotta live up to my reputation.

Get tickets but stay for Beck, you won't be disappointed. Especially seeing as you are willing to pay $50 for MGMT. From my understanding, the album doesn't translate that well live unless they have perfected their act by now. At least get your $50 worth!

thank you will do!

thank you WILL BERMAN

My name is Willie... Willie Beamen,
I keep the ladies... cream-in',

You gon' defeat me? You drea-min'.

Uh, wild style, profile, Willie Beamen got the ladies in the stand smilin'.

Why? Getting down to the nitty gritty, makin' them all feel so they get me.

Uh, shakin' like getting they shirt

Who is that rockin' the spot? It's Willie Beamen.
Who is that keepin' it hot? I'm Willie Beamen.
Who is that bringing the pain? It's Willie Beamen.
Got the ladies screaming my name (the bitches screamin')

Thanks for the code Row CC orchestra!

ah i only got row q

Row FF for me. Also ohmyrockness is listing beck playing there on the 10/8 as well. My guess is that once this one sells out they will ad another night.

I saw 10/8 listed on ticketmaster yesterday

no doubt. get 10/8 back up, yo.

no tix-- argh!

Donkey Boner!

MGMT > Beck

finally after 10 mins i got in, and the only seats were balcony. lame.

keep trying, they're releasing lots of different tickets - i gave up balcony seats, and got orchestra on the 2nd time around. its kinda random.

Balcony row K - and that was at 10:30 on the dot!

You are FUCKING retarded. Yeah MGMT > Beck, you clueless fuck. Beck has been pumping out great albums for 15+ years and MGMT has one album which they can barely play live.

I love the MGMT album but that is utter crap if you believe what you wrote.

still are tix left, go 1 at a time

when is the public sale for this show?! I got the e-mail from the newsletter, all presale is sold out, and neither the beck website, nor ticketmaster has any date info for the public sale date! they only have the info for montreal...what the hell? by the way scientologist freak or not, beck is an incredible musician and performer!

MGMT had a huge crowd at Lollapalooza - most of it left halfway through. They were TERRIBLE.

MGMT > Beck

Can you post your address so I can come over and bludgeon you to death for that blasphemous comment?

MGMT:
2008 - Oracular Spectacular

Beck (major releases only):
1994 - Mellow Gold
1996 - Odeley
1998 - Mutations
1999 - Midnight Vultures
2002 - Sea Change
2005 - Guero
2006 - The Information
2008 - Modern Guilt

Why don't you go see both live acts as well and see if you comment still holds up. Beck is a performance master while MGMT still doesn't know how to transfer their studio tracks to a live stage.

I am a huge Beck fan, but I have to be honest and say that his post Modern Guilt shows have been terrible. He is lifeless on stage and the crowd has been getting bored. I like MGMT also, but I have not heard them live.

does anyone have tickets to the friday 10/10 show that they would want to sell to me?

He played a secret show last week in a coffee shop after the El Paso, TX concert. Details and pics here:
