The Killers: MEN Arena, Manchester

BRINGING A dash of Las Vegas flash to the future home of Britain's first supercasino, the Killers crowned last week's Brit Awards win for best international group with a grandiose arena show. The Anglophile quartet from Las Vegas, hailed on these shores before the US caught on, were received warmly as they played most of their casino-themed second album, Sam's Town, to a rapturous crowd. Arriving onstage in a snowstorm of glitter, they acted like high-rolling winners right from the first note.
