The Killers were in Toronto this past Tuesday and Wednesday at Budweiser Stage, and we were there covering it live on the Tuesday night. We’ve had some amazing weather still in Toronto and it was a beautiful night down by the water that made for a great atmosphere for a great concert.
The band set it all off with “Bright Side” which is their brand new track just recently released, and this was followed by a setlist of hits like “Somebody Told Me”, “The Man”, “All These Things That I’ve Done”, “Human”, and of course to close it all off, their smash hit, “Mr. Brightside”. I’ve personally been a Killers fan since they dropped their Hot Fuss album back in 2004. The only downside to the show was that they didn’t play “Bones” on the Tuesday night show (I heard they played it on the Wednesday night show). I absolutely love that song and was really looking forward to finally hearing it live, so that was a bummer, and literally the only downside of the entire concert. The man himself, the singer, Brandon Flowers is an absolute machine on stage, such an incredible performer with a ton of energy from the very first song all the way to the very last. His vocals don’t seem to have changed one bit, as he delivered powerful performances of all of their hits! As he said himself in the show, “We didn’t come here to pacify, we came here to electrify.”
Another great show at Budweiser Stage as we get closer to the venue being closed for the winter season, The Killers delivered for a sold out crowd and Toronto showed them the love that they rightfully deserved!
