Every morning of 10th grade I would wake up to “Mr.
Brightside” by The Killers. My little blue cd player that was also an alarm clock would go off every morning, blasting. Saying I LOVED that song would be a total
understatement. It was the best song to wake up to and get your day started. I
still love that song, dearly. I still listen to it on the regular and every time I
hear it, it just takes me back. Rock out in the car, rock out at a wedding, rock out EVERYWHERE. I've listened to Hot Fuss prior to their performance, but ever since the VMA’s that year of going into 10th grade- I believe they
were in Miami that year. But The Killers performed. I still remember Hilary Duff
presenting them. She was dating Joel Madden and I remember her
saying something like “this is my boyfriend’s favorite band…the murderers”.
Obviously, it was sarcasm. But totally remember and think about that all the
time. I think they were performing near a pool, even? Why do I remember this so well?! So weird the things that you remember. And all the memories rush back in too.
Anyways. As you may know. They’re on tour! So I obviously
had to go. Good venue. Great company. Amazing show- I didn't want it to end! (PS. Brandon Flower's gold suit during the encore was altered in all the right places.)
