Re: The Killers in Birmingham

Yep, was a pretty amazing show they put on. I haven't really got into the latest album - Huge fan of Sams Town- but now I am liking a lot of the songs. He's defintely camping up the frontman role though.

Didn't seem too crowded in the standing area either so unsure if all the tickets were sold or if they let fewer people in there now.

Re: The Killers in Birmingham

for me The illers are very much a singles band, the albums tend to be 50/50, but having said that they have a great set list.

Re: The Killers in Birmingham

Saw both nights at the O2 and they were both incredible. The second night however was out of this world. The O2 is a great venue in terms of amenities etc the sound has never been amazing but the Tuesday night was fantastic. First time I had heard the Abbey Road version of Sams Town Live and with a Violinist......probably on of the most memorable live performances I'll ever see.
