Weeeeird. But it was reported earlier that the bands drummer Will Berman, left the stage in Manchester near the end of their set, after a fan throw a full-glass of piss at Berman, hitting him directly in the chest. MGMT released a statement today, declaring this incident false….

“At the start of “Kids”, MGMT’s most popular song to date and the second-to-last song in the set, a celebratory cup of hearty Manchester ale, NOT URINE, was hurled into the air in the direction of the stage, thereupon landing in the lap of William Berman… As we understand, thrown cups of beer are a sign of affection over here, whereas thrown bottles of urine mean the opposite. So, thank you Manchester for your affection.”

Either way, I don’t think beer or piss is very pleasant to have spilled on you, let alone chucked at you while you perform music to loving fans. Anyway, Congratulations is dope and if your a fan of relaxing, beach boy sounds psych rock, get the album.
