Band brings back “True Faith” and performs “Ten Storey Love Story” for first time during third show of four-night stand in British city.
The Killers paid tribute to two of Manchester, England’s most beloved artists as the band covered both New Order and the Stone Roses during their concert in the British city Friday.
At the third show of a four-night stand at Manchester’s Co-Op Live, Brandon Flowers and company first whipped out their rendition of New Order’s “True Faith” for the first time since 2019.
A few songs later, the Killers showed additional love to Manchester’s musical history with their first-ever performance of the Stone Roses’ “Ten Storey Love Song”:
The Killers are in the midst of a tour of the United Kingdom, covering artists from the Isles along the way, including a take on the Kinks’ “Come Dancing” and a tease of U2’s “The Sweetest Thing” during their shows in Dublin. After the Manchester shows, the band will next play a trio of gigs in Glasgow before setting up shop at London’s O2 Arena for a six-night stand.
Later this summer, the Killers will begin their Hot Fuss 25th anniversary shows at Las Vegas’ The Colosseum at Caesars Palace on August 14, with eight shows currently scheduled throughout that month. The group also has headlining sets at both Chicago’s Lollapalooza and San Francisco’s Outside Lands festivals on the schedule.
