All I can remember about this set (apart from the mud!) was that the volume was piss poor. The difference between them and The Who on Sunday night was immense - we couldn't hear the Killers!
@Peeto87 Yeah true, but what I guess i meant was that your hometown, wherever that is and however big or small, starts to feel like a small town if you've been there your whole life and you haven't left it very often.
I don't know why, but Brandon's suit at the Glastonbury 07' performance was seriously cool. Especially with the blue lighting bouncing off of him during Mr. Brightside
I kinda dig the whole "Americana" theme of the album and Brandon's look - very Uncle Sam! This album totally cancelled off their label as a "British" American band.
Also - you can tell this song was heavily influenced by The Cure!
You're probably right. But still, what about the outfits? The album artwork? The music videos? What I say is completely untrue, is it? And perhaps there's a reason that the tabloids and critics and whoever else say so?
@tellytubies123 They wear those flashy outfits because they want to get into groove for the performance. That's what they said in an interview. Tabloids and critics like to get dirt to make people read. They'll do anything for a read. And no what you said isn't completely untrue. Just most of it. I'm going off what the artists say in interviews pertaining to the subject matter, and not what rolling stone, spin or some two bit journalist had to say.
@tellytubies123 Who cares about the Music videos, its about the music, people who are botherd about music videos are the type of people who listen to Britney Spears - I'm not saying you like Britney Spears, but come on do music videos matter that much?
Firstly, the point of me bringing up the Killers' music videos during Sam's Town is that their imagery looks very "Americana" to me. Which is what we are discussing. Not the music, in this instance, nor who cares about them.
Secondly, its very unfair to bring up Britney Spears with music videos. Don't Radiohead have amazing videos? Or Muse? Or the Red Hot Chili Peppers? I happen to admire the artistic value of the music video. Check out Michel Gondry's DVD collection of his work. TC mate
I love this song, I love any song, book, film with the theme of leaving a small town to experience the rest of the world. I left my small New England hometown 11 years ago and never regret it. Trust me kids, if you're not happy in your small town, get out and see the world. You won't regret it. Don't listen to anybody trying to bring you down.
@Peeto87 Yeah, but what I guess i meant was that your hometown, wherever that is and however big or small, starts to feel like a small town if you've been there your whole life and you haven't left it very often.
No, Brandon screwed up. Their tech played the intro and Brandon chimed in for the the rest of it. He even said in an interview that he often messes up on the keyboard during live shows, I guess this time was much more obvious.
it was extremely amazing to begin with = Hot Fuss era, it got a bit worse during early Sam's Town, then worse, then better for Day & Age, and now it's goood again :]
i heard it! well hes only human and i still love that performance even tho he messed up a bit! : ) his face said it all after he did it! hes so cool xD
there are people that don't like the gold suit...i'm not one of them:) so...the sound was bad back then huh? it sounded bad from the clip *shrugs*. brandon put his heart into it though as always:) thanks!
the best performance of this song EVER!
