The Killers cancelled a show mid-show in Colorado last night after Brandon Flowers split after the second song. I woulda freaked my shit completely. Not that the Killers are a band to get freaked out about but concert tickets are all expensive and stuff! Going to a concert is like drudgery nowadays, especially at an arena or whatever. And you sit through shitty opening bands and then this happens? I would have throw my weed and hidden nip bottles at the stage in protest! Kidding. I don’t smoke weed and I use a flask.
A doctor took the stage just before 10 p.m. and told the crowd that it would be a detriment to Brandon Flowers’ voice if he sang Thursday night.
Ronnie Vannucci, Jr., the band’s drummer, told the audience they would come back to make it up to their fans.
It is unclear when that make up concert would be scheduled for or how people can get a refund if they cannot attend.
And sometimes “throat injury” = “complete mental breakdown” or “too stoned to play”. We’ll see how this pans out. Trust no one!

Drugs?? I don’t buy that. From what I hear, this guy is fairly anal and would dare but drugs in his body. Plus he’s Mormon

Goodness. He had one decent album and he thinks he’s Pavarotti!
I hate pretentious pricks.

Brandon walked off because of a throat injury. He was diagnosed with Epstein-Barr syndrome a few years back, which weakens his immune system terribly and leads him to get nasopharyngeal infections easily.
At the show in Chicago the night before the Colorado show, Brandon also had difficulties with his throat and pretty much creaked and croaked his way through the show.

ok so, I highly doubt Brandon Flowers would do drugs and just walk out like that.
I think this comment above me says all that is needed to be said, to believe Brandon’s no drug user!
