Hundreds turned away from free MGMT show

Hundreds of fans were turned away from MGMT's free hometown show at Brooklyn's McCarren Pool, with some climbing fences to get in.

Hundreds of fans had to be turned away disappointed from MGMT's free hometown show at Brooklyn's McCarren Pool on Sunday, which closed a series of gigs at the empty outdoor swimming pool this summer. Fans queued for hours to gain entry, some sneakily climbing over fences and squeezing under gates to gain access after they were turned away, leading to a packed out venue. Also performing were The Ting Tings and Black Moth Super Rainbow.
