(RED) is an organization that we’re proud to help support, and we’re thrilled that Starbucks will be hosting our video for charity this year as well. "

The Sun Reports Killers Playing Festivals Next Year

In their article reporting the release of 'Boots" (still waiting for release dates outside of North America) The Sun have reported that The Killers are

"expected to reunite next year for a number of festival appearances"

Rumours about festival appearances have been circulating for a while from a number of sources, however, we think while pretty likely, they are just rumours at this stage.  And as The Sun can't even get the well-document reason for the band's break right, we don't expect that they have any inside info.

You can read what they have to say here, and anyone off to see Brandon on the rest of his dates could always try and get a hint from him.  He let slip about Boots after all :)
