Few bands have a grip on the UK quite like the Killers. You only have to find a karaoke bar or watch the band’s rendition of ‘Mr Brightside’ at Reading Festival last year to gauge just how much Brits adore them: needless to say, a Killers show in the UK is a proper event.
Right now, the band is touring the country as part of their Rebel Diamonds Tour (which saw them play Manchester the other week) – and now it’s London’s turn. Brandon Flowers and co have already played three nights at the O2 Arena, and they’ve still got three spectacular shows to go.
Planning on heading down to Greenwich to see smash hits like ‘Somebody Told Me’, ‘When You Were Young’ and ‘All These Things That I’ve Done’ live and in the flesh? Here’s everything you need to know about the shows, from doors to support acts.
