I had previously seen The Killers when they last toured New York in support of their second album, Sam's Town. The show was good but not fantastic. That show was held up by the power of the band's hit singles. However, this time around, The Killers put on a fantastic show that showed both the strength of their new album, Day and Age, as well as their older hits. The show began at a fairly early time of 8:15 and blasted right into their latest single, "Spaceman," with Brandon Flowers jumping around the stage as he sang and the large video wall offering the visual support. As good as the new album is, older hits such as "Somebody Told Me," "Mr. Brightside," and "When You Were Young" are still the fan favorites and got the crowd on their feet. The highlight had to be the main set closer, "All These Things That I've Done." That song was made to be performed in large venues. The crowd was so into it that they began singing "I've got soul, but I'm not a soldier" before Flowers even got the chance to sing it himself.
