A Dustland Fairytale - The Killers Live in Minneapolis

The Killers perform "A Dustland Fairytale" live in Minneapolis, MN on January 19th, 2009 at the Northrop Auditorium. The audio gets a little staticky at points, but is pretty decent for the most part.

Please ignore the screaming fangirl at the beginning, it's just me and I'll stop in a couple seconds. ;-)

There's also a bit of the beginning of "Shadowplay" at the end of the video.

do u think the song can be played with drums and guitars only?? please reply thanks!

[TheDevilsWater]

Yes, I think it's possible, if it's organized correctly. I'm not an expert on intrumentation, but I would suggest using both acoustic and electric guitars, especially since the beginning starts off slowly.

[nurfbar]

instead of using the harp at the start, what instrument can be used? im really confused. and i really like the violin sound.

[TheDevilsWater]

You could try either acoustic guitar, or if you have a piano or synthesizer available, you could use that too. Just something with a softer sound.

I love this song. The best off the album by far for me and it is just magical! I can't believe I missed this concert! Stupid finals!!!!! I love The Killers with all my heart. The reviews were great and The Killers are the best. I love them! Day & Age is great! The album just grows on me everytime I listen to it. honestly I was a little disappointed the first time but it keeps getting better and better. Best song. Best band. They should singlize this song!

oh my gosh I was at this concert and that was seriously me screaming in the beginning hahahaha I LOVE THE KILLERS AND THIS SONG ESPECIALLY! I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL THEY RELEASE A NEW ALBUM!

no way it cant. the master recording is done with 3 guitars, thats why its so dynamic. where is the palm mute gonna come when the melody is playing in the first verse?

this song was meant to be epic.
