THE KILLERS Live at The Olympia!

“I'm coming out of my cage, And I’ve been doing just fine, Gotta gotta gotta be down, Because I want it all, It started out with a kiss, How did it end up like this, It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss, Now I’m falling asleep, And she’s calling a cab, While he’s having a smoke, And she’s taking a drag, Now they’re going to bed, And my stomach is sick, And it’s all in my head, But she’s touching his—chest, Now, he takes off her dress, Now, let me go … Cause I’m Mr. Brightside…”

Following their stunning headline appearance on the New Band stage at OXEGEN...

The Killers’ debut album, ‘Hot Fuss’ has just been nominated in the final list of 10 for the Shortlist Prizein the U.S. (the equivalent of the Mercury Music Prize) – the winner to be announced Nov 10th.

‘All These Things I’ve Done’ – the new single and follow-up to ‘Mr. Brightside’ – is out now.

It had to happen eventually. When you survey previous exports from the city of Las Vegas: an assortment of suspect hair metal bands; one-hit wonder Toni Basil; err… Andre Agassi… It was only ever a matter of time that a group would emerge from Sin City to wipe the slate ceremoniously clean, giving the inhabitants of that Nevadan outpost some fresh hope and an escape from their culturally underperforming past.

It’s evolution, see. The unique habitat in which our subjects developed, their native characteristics shaped by external factors (in this case Messrs. Morrissey, Bowie, Ocasek, Gallagher, Presley, Smith, Sumner, Corgan, Cocker, Byrne, Lennon, to name but a few…) would go towards creating a band so clearly the product of their environment and yet so perfectly adapted to becoming a truly dominant species in the world of pop. Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you….

The Killers:
Brandon Flowers – Vocals, Keyboards
David Keuning – Guitars
Mark Stoermer – Bass
Ronnie Vannucci – Drums

What kind of idiot are you?!? Keep it quiet, less people know about it the more chance u can get a ticket!!!! :mad:

Alana

I know, flaming heck I just found out now and all the standing tickets are gone, but at least I got a ticket I suppose, woo, I am soo excited, first the Zutons and now the Killers this kicks major ass!

Atomic Pineapple

Ah I got a lovely standing ticket, no way I could go and sit down! Just wouldnt be able to do it

Alana

Grrr, so envious, good for you though.

Bungalow Bill

Ya bastardo's I tried to get one today but they was all gone!!

I'm the only Killers fan that I know of!

CheersDarlin'

I got 3 standing tickets from Sound Cellar on Nassue Street in town just today, when the ticketmaster had said everything was sold out.

So I'd say give it a go there, but I dont think your able to buy them over the phone. Good Luck! x

jmc

Got mine! But you could also try Road Records. Themselves and Soundcellar are one of the few shops that get a set number of tickets instead of operating out of the central Ticketmaster system like the rest of the outlets.
Yeah you have to call in in person, they don't hold tickets over the phone.

Atomic Pineapple

Cant wait for this gig now they were class at oxegen cant wait to see them again, think the olympia should suit them perfectly, pitty it only holds what? 2000 odd? cos they could sell a good few more tickets.

verdidnt

They are playing a second date now on the 10th. The day before the sold out gig

I left work early to get mine, bought 2 and within 2 minutes of the olympia box office they were stolen on me. Instead of running after the culprit (he was on a moped with his buddie) I ran back to the box office to buy 2 more. I wasn't risking not getting to see them. Can't wait!

Creon

U know of another Killers fan Bungalow Bill, u just don't know it.

VERY sorry for the major bump of this old thread, but I was looking for the bootleg of this show that I had the other day and its absolutely ruined altogether... Just said I'd check on here to see if there is the slightest chance anyone has the audio of this show?

Thanks (and sorry...)
