MGMT headlined day one of the Treasure Island Music Festival with a set containing every song from their debut album and four new tracks. They played in front of a backdrop of live light projections and silhouettes made by a crew of performers off stage.

The music festival, thrown on the scenic island in the middle of the San Francisco Bay, also hosted electronic artists Girl Talk, Dan Deacon, MSTRKRFT and local boys The Limousines on the sold-out opening day. Just of the comments overheard from mesmerized attendees: "MGMT is one of the greatest bands of our time," and "holy crap, just when you think you've seen every type of Girl Talk performances...FIREWORKS!! Amazing Treasure Island show and MGMT was awesome."

Here's MGMT opening their set with Time To Pretend:
