"I wonder if I can grow an actual beard" - This guy

Brandon Flowers is a huge fan of Cirque du Soleil. I guess. I mean, I’m making that assumption because his new video for “Only the Young” is a full on Cirque du Soleil with Flowers hanging out in the middle of the whole performance thing. Flowers is also doing some weird 80’s New Wave dance thing that I’m not real sure about.

I dig on the song but the video is kinda… eh. I guess if I liked Cirque du Soleil even a little bit then I’d probably like this video more. But I don’t like Cirque du Soleil, primarily because I’m not a 50-year-old grandmother of three.

Just sayin’.

Anywho, check out Brandon Flowers’ video for “Only the Young:”

This video does remind me of Vegas (because that’s where Cirque du Soleil lives) and I do love Vegas… hmmm. Anyone want to go to Vegas this weekend?

"Good night Cleveland!" - Whoever these guys are

Yesterday I posted a link to a bunch of different bands that were headed out on tour. And since I posted that I’ve had a billion (literally, a billion! Ok… maybe not literally) people email me other people that are headed out on tour that I should have included.

So… to make everyone happy, here are a bunch more bands with link to their tour dates:

Brandon Flowers
Jason Mraz
Ted Leo and the Pharmacists
of Montreal
Kele Okereke

Again, I’m sure there are a bunch more so feel free to email everyone that I keep missing.

Brandon Flowers’ new video for the song “Crossfire” everyone:

The Killers, and I guess Flowers since he is a member, generally make decent music videos and this one is no exception. I sure wish I was rich and could pay Charlize Theron to rescue me over and over again. Rescue me from Ninjas. Ninjas are assholes.

As far as the song goes… it’s growing on me. It’s definitely better than most of the last Killers’ album, that’s for sure.

More! More new music!

Brandon Flowers, who you will remember as the oddly mustachioed lead singer of The Killers, has a new solo album coming out and today we get a glimpse of what it will sound like. And you know what? It kinda sounds like The Killers. That’s not a bad thing, I’m just sayin’. But why are you even listening to me? You should check it out for yourself.

Here’s Brandon Flower’s new single “Crossfire.”

Whatchu dudes and dudettes think?
