The
Killers say goodbye to UK audiences in style
THE KILLERS have said goodbye to debut album 'HOT FUSS' during their
main stage appearance at THE CARLING WEEKEND: READING FESTIVAL.
Playing just below the headliners today (August 26), the band
admitted this will probably one of the last times they''ll play
before a UK audience before they start work on their second album.
''The summer has been great,''singer Brandon Flowers told NME.COM.
''But it's almost over and 'Hot Fuss' is almost over too. It's a nice
place to send the album off, this will be our last trip to England
for this album, but we'll be back!''
However leaving fans with a taste of the work ahead, The Killers
played new song 'All The Pretty Faces'which the band debuted at
Glastonbury earlier this summer although ’For Reasons Unknown’ which
Flowers hinted they might play did not materialise.
However the focus of the set was the emotional goodbye to their
debut 'Hot Fuss' with the Las Vegas band including 'Mr Brightside',
'Somebody Told Me'and 'All These Things That I've Done' in their
set – all of which triggered the now customary loud sing-a-longs
from the audience.
''This has all been unbelievable,'' declared Flowersof the summer.
''Glastonbury, T In The Park and now finishing off at Reading and
Leeds, it's just kinda surreal.''
The band played the following set:
'Jenny Was A Friend Of Mine'
'On Top'
Under The Gun'
Smile Like You Mean It'
Change Your Mind'
Somebody Told Me'
Andy You’re A Star'
All The Pretty Faces'
Midnight Show'
Glamorous Indie Rock & Roll'
Mr Brightside'
All These Things That I’ve Done'
