MGMT?!!?!??!!?

WOW.

For those of you who have been living under a rock (or perhaps the motherload of work that has suddenly piled up) ViCE has announced that the "special guests" for the M.I.A. concert are none other than MGMT!

VSA President Sam Charner has just sent out an e-mail:
ViCE is extremely excited to announce this year's spring concert featuring internationally acclaimed hip-hop artist, M.I.A. (www.miauk.com). Combining diverse genres of music and politically conscious lyrics, M.I.A. has emerged as one of the most important, interesting and popular artists in music today. She was named Spin Magazine's artist of the year (2005), and her latest release, Kala, was deemed album of the year by both Blender and Rolling Stone. MGMT (www.whoismgmt.com), one of Rolling Stone's top 10 artists to watch, will open the show. And there might even be more surprise guests to come...

Mads coverage here, ViCE official announcement here.

SPRiNKLES's Take: MGMT was actually the logical choice in my opinion; both M.I.A. and them have the same sort of vibe. Incidentally, MGMT's single, Time to Pretend, was featured as iTunes' single of the week back in February... I was lucky enough to get it... They are FANTASTIC. I cannot WAIT till tomorrow!! TIXXXX!!!
