I dont know but Micheal used to live in Denton Texas, back when I did, then 25 yrs ago I came back out here to Aspermont Texas, was a barber for the Cowboys from these very ranches, not far from anson Tx...I now live in Clyde but the Christmas Ball is still every yr....
For everyone disappointed that the Killer's song is a cover, it's actually not. Both these songs borrow lyrics from a poem written by William Lawrence Chittenden.
The Killers are releasing their annual charity Christmas song on Thursday and it is entitled "The Cowboy's Christmas Ball"...I wonder if it has anything to do with this...hmmmmmmmmmmmm!!
the video to this song and the one that appears on his CD (cowboy christmas songs 1) are MUCH better than this live version

I honestly like The Killers' version better, even though you always gotta respect the original.
