MGMT co-headlining Bamboozle Festival



The Bamboozle festival is starting to look like one of the better summer festivals of 2010. With headliners Weezer and Paramore and a ton of great supporting acts, the parking lot at Giants Stadium will probably be more active than tailgating for a Giants/Cowboys game. But now there’s a whole new reason to hit up the festival and it has four letters: MGMT.

The indie-rock duo will co-headline the second night of the festival (May 2) alongside Weezer, according to Spin. Not only will fans get the hits at the show like “Electric Feel” and “Kids” but also some new tunes from their upcoming sophomore album Congratulations.

Speaking of the new record, singer/keyboardist Ben Goldwasser has said there will be no singles coming from the second album. “There definitely isn’t a ‘Time To Pretend’ or a ‘Kids’ on the album,” he said. “We’ve been talking about ways to make sure people hear the album as an album in order and not just figure out what are the best three tracks, download those and not listen to the rest of it.”
