concert experience
The Killers
I watched The Killers in San Diego, California. Event was the Wrex the hall 2012 on December 7th. It was my first rock concert I had been too. I have been to reggae, rap and a few house dj concerts but never a rock. Definitely a different crowd comes to these events. For the majority they are mostly white Americans and they seem to be passionate about the music being played at the time. Not so much dancing but a lot more singing along with Brandon Flowers with some jumping up and down. From the events I have gone to this one was more passionate but I enjoy dancing a little so that is the only compliant I have about it.
The energy shown by the crowd was amazing it was great to experience. The arena we were in also was neat and the fact that I was in the pit it felt like everyone in the stands were looking down at you as if you were the musician. It was the first time I listen to more than one song of The Killers consecutively and with the crowd around me and the energy from the people I felt as if I was a fan. It was easy going and the music was great.
The song I have grown to like from them is Mr. Brightside which is played on the radio a lot and was one of two reasons why I went to the concert. The song performed live is a lot better than I expected because when I view performances on youtube you see the singer getting the crowd involved way too much and he does not do much of the singing so it defeats the purpose of paying to see the musician perform his piece. Brandon Flowers the lead singer of the Killers did just the right amount, I have the entire performance recorded on my iPhone and he lets us get in on a little bit of the song but does not overdue it. The Killers were a great band from previous experiences I have had with sound and energy. I only went into the venue right in time for The Killers so I did not get to listen in on other rock bands and how they do live, but from the other genres I have been too and comparing it
