if you notice at the beginning, brandon is at the keyboard and sort of presses something.. then goes to his mic. I think he pre-setted the synths, i've noticed that quite a lot recently! and then there's a guy in the back, who sometimes plays when brandon is singing... i hope this helps! :)
The band hired a guy called Ray, he plays any synth that you don't see Brandon playing, he also adds aditional guitar, and plays violin during the 50/50 version of Smile Like You Mean It.
It's such a shame how shit the sound was at Reading, because watching this it seems like The Killers could have sounded so much better if the festival organizers just thought to crank up the volume.
yer i mean i could hardly hear bloc party when they were on lol but luckily got to the front for when the killers came on was amzing. apart from the semi naked hairy sweaty man using me as a towel LOL
Definitely sounded a bit quiet. I think the council made them restrict it though and they couldn't go over it, which is pretty sad because that means all the people living in Reading would of complained to get the restriction.....can't even let it slide for 3 days a year.
if they perform this song on the next tour while im at one of their shows, my life will be complete. :) i love this song so much and its even better live. :)
it's both. I held her close is the studio version, I held her throat is in live performances. He's confessing :)

Shame the bass sounds faded, that's 1 of the main features of the song imo!
Still pretty damn good though :D

i dont think the synths are pre-programmed as there was a mistake mid way through
