Saturdays are meant to be like this. A string of awesome shows, new music, and of course a new video for Time To Pretend from everybody’s new favorite band MGMT. I can honestly say I never expected to see zebras, tribal wars, surfing, and hunting mass armies of dolphins in this video…but that’s what we have…and I like it. Take a gander for yourself here.
