Brandon Flowers

the world we live in.

with apologies to Brandon Flowers and the Killers.

Brandon put on a great show, by the way, at the Roseland recently.

There's some sort of thing going on in Tangent tomorrow, some sort of demolition derby.

Let's go.

So whatever that is, we're going.

The last thing we did together was Brandon Flowers' solo concert with the country music trend.

And it was a great show at the Roseland, but he wrote The World That We Live In.

Now, I love the Killers.

I've met Brandon Flowers on a few occasions.

He's a lovely guy.

And obviously, Mr Brightside is an absolute banger.

I'm going to take you back to the very early 2000s.

We're in Las Vegas.

It's a young bellhop at the Gold Coast Casino called Brandon Flowers.

He's 20 years old.

This is Isla Routledge calling in from Scotland with my new music picks for August.

My first choice is Tiger's Blood from Thrasher by Brandon Flowers.

My second choice is Suspicion from Appalachian Smoke by Mountain Grass Unit.

I'll let my new music researcher explain what's good about these songs.

Yeah.

You know, and then, uh, so now Skrat's playing with Brandon Flowers and, of The Killers right now-

Mm-hmm

... and he's doing cool things, and doing his own little, not little band.

The bad news in sports is the White Sox, as, uh, K's had a very rough time.

He enjoyed it, or at least, uh, got his, got his mood better by going to the Brandon Flowers show at The Riv last night.

It seemed to be-

Didn't cheer me up from the White Sox loss, let me tell you.

It didn't help.

That's not good.

And I had a good time at Brandon Flowers, but I would've had a better time if the White Sox won yesterday.

So Petey Halpin, old Petey Halpin's three-run homer propelled the Guardians past the White Sox and into first place in the AL Central.

We feel the need to renegotiate our identity, especially as work becomes our identity.

Brandon Flowers is asking, are you a person or the role that you're performing? And I think he was inspired to write the song after he read this line by Hunter Thompson, we're raising a generation of dancers afraid to take one step out of line.

That is awesome.

Yeah, I love all of that and just kind of the difference between sort of what you do and who you are.

This is Brandon Flowers' new song, Killers.

Lead singer of the Killers.

Made a country album, and it's great.
