"I've got this energy beneath my feet like something underground's gonna come up and carry me"


"We are called The Killers proxy by way of fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada"
The only photo of the show from last night that I could find for now. I can't stop from smiling when looking at it. (Photo taken from B'estfest.ro)

So yeah, The Killers last night, live at B'Estfest festival. It was AMAZING. I still can't believe I finally saw them live and to think I was actually thinking not going at one point. Wow, wow, wow!!

I remembered why I fell in love with this band so many years ago. They had palm trees on stage (how freaking awesome is that?) and played a great 1 and 1/2 hour set with songs from all the albums! I think I actually bounced like a little girl when they played Read My Mind probably my favorite!

And Brendon Flowers' voice sounds beautiful live! Dear god, I love that man so much. He's like a diva and a gentleman with the gestures and energy of a stage actor. And he sparkles both from the inside and through the ridiculously awesome blazer with sequined shoulders he wore. If there's one person's closet who I would love to raid, it's his!

The worst-turned-best part of the night was the downpour of rain that started before their concert. Everyone was soaked to the bone and there were huge puddles everywhere but I love it. Honestly, dancing and singing and not giving a damn in the torrential rain was the most fun experience I ever had at a concert!

I could watch them perform all day. Until then though, I'll have to do with enjoying this beautiful Flickr set and hoping they come back here again. Fingers crossed!

My shoes sacrificed themselves for my and the band's behalf :))





My make-up did not survive the night. I held my head in the rain and so did not care that I could feel the mascara running down my cheeks as the speakers blared.


I don't need curling irons. Just give me rain and The Killers and the problem is solved.

white top: Zara, sweater and jeans: Mango, bracelets: Killah and CK Jewelery, necklaces: Diva and Accessorize.

Because my love for these boys (and their charming and crazy singer) has grown to unbearable heights in the past few days, here are some of my favorite photos of them to keep things happy and feed my fangirl brain.

How amazing is he? A rock star that dresses like he's Oscar Wilde and Ziggy Stardust's lovechild. Be still me heart!












The feather jacket will go down in history!

The Killers is right now my favorite rock band. If you can call their music rock. I don't know how to describe it exactly.

Anyway.. I really love their song Human. I looove listening and singing to it.

Chantelle said...

Seriously... Your hair suits that colour so well! I adore the natural curls. Amazing!

Wanderlusting said...

I saw them in April - I am not a fan of their new stuff at all but they put on a VERY good show. Lots of energy.

But srsly...he needs to lose that facial hair in that photo, lol
