Great set. And Johnny Marr too. Yes.

    I was there last year. Only headline set of the weekend we managed to catch. Was really impressed, had kind of written the Killers off post-Hot Fuss as a singles band but no more. Live they were great, must get a chance to rewatch it at some point.

    This was my view \m/

    Great live band, and possibly the one band I've seen the most (at least 6 or 7 times). Though I do worry they're not quite the same without Dave & Mark.

    I've gone off them a bit after finding out how easy it was to completely dumbfound Brandon Flowers with humanist debate.

    Pretty good music though.
    Some folks like water, some folks like wine.
    My feedback thread is here.

    ^ This. Every time I've heard The Killers it's the drumming that stands out for me.

    I play guitar because I enjoy it rather than because I’m any good at it

    Our band and drummer is in hiatus. Family health issues. Middle aged problems frankly. I want The Killers drummer as replacement. I’d pick him over pretty much everyone.

    Yeah, he's right up there, one of the best drummers of his generation I think. He knows what a groove is!

    Yep. Aside from about 4 tracks which are just brilliant he’s the only reason I watch the Killers. 

    The singer has an Ok voice but is a bit annoying. The guitar playing is ok but basic and a bit dull over the length of a concert. They used to have a great aggressive bassist but this replacement guy is a bit boring and too laid back.  But the drummer. Bloody hell, what a star.

    I preferred the "secret" Glastonbury gig in 2017.

    Here is a fan video, but there is a pro shot version of the concert floating around..


    If we are not ashamed to think it, we should not be ashamed to say it.

    Brandon Flowers is a good looking boy thought.
