The Killers – On Top (feat. Danielle Haim on drums) – Outside Lands Night Show, The Independent

The Killers - On Top (with Danielle Haim on Drums) – San Francisco, Outside Lands Night Show, Live, 8-9-14, The Independent, front row. Brandon Flowers: “We’re going to play a song we haven’t played in a while“ :P Other Tidbits: Indeed, The Killers haven’t played ’On Top’ since 2009! The band, who were the final act to play at Outside Lands, also did a show at the Independent the night before. The band usually plays before tens of thousands of fans, so the ones lucky enough to get tickets lined up as early as Friday morning to see them in this intimate 500-person venue. After their soundcheck, Brandon came out to meet the fans and took a few selfies with some of the girls in our group, which was nice. Many people recognized Danielle Haim in the audience, long before she came up to play. She was watching the show from the side stage. Mark Zuckerberg was there as well, and he entered and left through the same door the artists go through. Aaron Axelson, the guy who Brandon Flowers dedicated the final song to, was also in attendance in the balcony. He is one of the DJs at Live105 FM. The Killers started playing at ~11:30pm Saturday and ended at ~1:30am Sunday. Brandon Flowers: “Is it Sunday morning? Saturday night sounds a lot better than Sunday morning... It feels like Saturday night“ :P Brandon Flowers before performing ‘All These Things That I’ve Done’: “I’m going to give this next song a little introduction. I’ve only done it 3 times, but you might have seen it on YouTube... so if you’ve heard this story before, bear with me. Some of these people here it will be the first time hearing this story, and I want you to know this story..“ :P In one of the many nods to being in San Francisco, The Killers’ intro music was the theme from the TV show ‘Full House’, lol.
