-You have three boys. -Yes.
-You were saying backstage -- 11, 9, and 7. Right?
-Yes.
-Do they like that their dad's in a rock band?
Do they go to shows?
-They're into it.
They're so used to it, you know.
Since they were born, that's what I do.
And they -- you know, they love music and they've been to gigs.
But none of them have ever made it through an entire gig
without falling asleep.
-Oh, really?
-Because we go on at 9:00. -Yeah.
-And so -- I mean, that's already,
you know, that's bedtime. -Yeah.
[ Laughter ]
-So my wife's documented a couple instances
on her Instagram where they're just like dozing off.
And I'm, like, on fire on stage, like, giving it.
And it's pretty funny.
-You did the Panorama festival.
-Yeah.
-Here in New York. [ Cheers and applause ]
And you -- you brought someone from the audience
up on stage to play drums.
-Yes.
-How does that happen? What happens?
-They bring signs.
-Okay, so someone was holding a sign saying --
-Yeah, we had never done it --
until November last year, this hadn't happened.
A kid in Dublin brought a sign.
He wanted to play keyboards on a song of ours
called "A Dustland Fairytale."
And we brought him up and it was -- it was amazing.
Because people are already, you know, coming together
at this concert and they all agree on something
and it's beautiful to have that sort of
congregation of people cheering.
But when that kid came on stage, everybody was rooting for him.
And we were rooting for him. And it was beautiful.
Then all of a sudden, it just took on a whole life of its own.
And now at every gig, there are people with signs.
-So you had a --
Let's take a look at the drummer you brought up here in New York.

-He's singing along. -That's fantastic!
[ Cheers and applause ]
So, how -- be honest.
How often is it good? -Okay.
[ Laughter ]
It is -- I think 60 -- 63% of the time.
-That's a good -- [ Laughter ]
-Yeah.
-And I will say this is a photo, you know, obviously taken.
Here you are getting -- I mean, look at that crowd.
Look at the amount of people you got to perform with.
That's really incredible that you do that.
I do want to say, I know I told you this once before.
We met in 2008 when you did "SNL"
and my mom was at the show,
and I introduced you to my mom and you were so polite.
And this is sort of a famous story
because a lot of people overheard her.
And you went back to your dressing room
and we were walking down the hall and my mom said,
"I don't know why they call them The Killers.
They couldn't be nicer." [ Laughter ]
And it's as true today as it was then.
Thanks so much for being here, man. I really appreciate it.
Brandon Flowers, everybody!
