2005
Went in 2007 as well and The Killers were headlining, and had a brave stab at being almost as dull. This is probably due to the fact that they only have two songs (both of which were written by Duran Duran), something which can't be disguised in a live setting.

I think the Communards were '83 or '84.
Something like that.

I saw The Killers back in 2009
At the V Festival. They sounded exactly the same live, which can't be a good thing.

That was the same festival where I was turned into an inadvertant dogger when I saw two people shagging in the open boot of their car. The man was buck-naked, save for a pink tutu. Images like that tend to stay with a man.

Yeah, I remember thinking that they may as well have stuck a CD on
The Killers, not your dogging couple

Come to think of it, I bet they did.
And just mimed on stage. Not a single ounce of creativity.

Watching the Ting Tings was more fun.
