Fun Again With Phantogram at MGM Music Hall

On Monday, October 7, the veteran electronic rock duo Phantogram accompanied Kings of Leon as both bands returned to MGM Music Hall at Fenway for the second time in less than a month. The additional Boston show was the triumphant conclusion of Kings of Leon’s Can We Please Have Fun tour. Phantogram’s Sarah Barthel set the bar high for the evening when she greeted the audience, “Welcome to the best show of your life; happy to be a part of it.” Barthel and the other half of the duo, Josh Carter made the most of their 45-minute intro set. With such limited time, they prioritized performing some of their more well-known songs from their repertoire such as “Black Out Days,” “Don’t Move,” and wrapping things up with “When I’m Small.” With their first new album in nearly four years, Memory of a Day, due to release soon, they also made a point of performing two newer songs, “All a Mystery” and “Happy Again.” Phantogram’s opening set was a welcome taste of things to come from a band that has left fans waiting patiently for more, and with Memory of a Day out this past Friday, October 18, they’ll hopefully be back with their own headline tour before long.
