"the killers show monday night at the col totally rocked. terrific sound, great performances... definitely a good time. and nice to see tegan and sara live again, although they were unusually quiet. they're typically very chatty and have a lot of witty banter between tracks. It's also good to see the col packed with people seeing an alt-rock show. back in the mid-late '90s it was THE place to go to see those kinds of bands. in other words, the kinds of bands I actually want to see. So it was kind of a blast from the past to see a hot, up-and-coming alt band there. hopefully it's a harbinger of things to come." - Sean Leary
