The Killers: Tickets Go on Sale Saturday

The Killers have had one hell of a year. Winding down from their recent hit album, Sawdust, tearing up their 2008 summer tour, and then releasing yet another fantastic album, Day & Age, right before the holidays. The Las Vegas rooted band will be cleaning up the rest of their tour with a few stops on the other side of the pond and then heading back to the States to kick off yet another summer tour.

These boys mean business and they ain't gonna stop till they make yo body drop. Everyone likes at least one Killers song so it's no surprise that they keep selling out shows. No point in slowing down now.

The band will make a stop in Columbus on Tuesday, May 5 at the Lifestyle Communities Pavilion. Tickets will go on sale through Ticketmaster this Saturday, January 24 at 10A.M. All tickets are for general admission and are starting at $42.50.

Expect for the show to sell out and rather quickly. My boyfriend, Tom, isn't a big concert guru and has only ever been to see The Steve Miller Band, but he does love The Killers and bought their newest album the day of release. In hopes of breaking him into the music scene, I'll be posted up at a computer at 10 A.M. on Saturday to score us some tickets.

The music scene in Columbus is a young one considering the shear size of the OSU student body so like all other concerts in the area, expect a predominantly young turnout. The good news is that you don't have to wait in line too long for one of those potato salad container beers that only run you $7. The bad news is an overabundance of skinny jeans and high pitched screams of excitement. But this will be one of the first outdoors shows at the LC for the 2009 concert season which makes even the motliest of crews enjoyable.
