I'll be taking a stroll of the grounds while they're "entertaining" the dumbstuck audience.
A couple of nice tracks on their second album Sam's Town (that won't be played).

But yeah...a very generic, vanilla band being used to justify the ticket prices and make it feel like a big US sporting event. Each to their own though, you like it? Enjoy it.

I played that album a few times, some years back, and while I didn't hate it, they didn't do much for me.

Exactly. Those who like them, great. I'm sure you'll enjoy it, even though the sound will be appalling (always is when it's not a genuine concert).

Nailed it.

The "entertainment" could be worse, and the sound will be more cringeworthy than a rectal revisionists first use of the horn muffler.

But if you like the band and have a ticket? Soak it up.

95% of the people at the ground would have no idea who they are. I'm a music fanatic and when it was announced I had to google them
90% of people under 40 know who the killers are or would know some of their songs if you played them
