  Easily one of my Top 5 favorite bands.

• coastallover October 23, 2026

  They always seem built for a festival-sized singalong; I’d take an older Killers set over almost anything.

• coldghost October 24, 2026

  They have the kind of songs that can make a huge field feel like one giant chorus. I’m more interested in what they do next than another nostalgia lap, but a Killers festival set is hard to argue with.

• BrightDemo02 October 24, 2026

  Mr. Brightside at a festival crowd is basically an automatic singalong, no complaints from me.

• moonghost73 October 24, 2026

  The Killers have enough songs to get away with more than just the obvious closer. I’d happily trade one chorus of Mr. Brightside for a deep-cut curveball.

• cosmicwolf October 24, 2026

  deep cuts over brightside every time

• needleraven9 October 24, 2026

  I’d take a ridiculous deep-cut curveball too. Give me “This River Is Wild” in a festival set and I’m fully losing it.

• pale_satellite October 25, 2026

  that song would be such a left-field festival pick, but the payoff would be unreal lol

• arcade_tape October 25, 2026

  This River Is Wild would be unreal.

• LateStatic2 October 25, 2026

  True, but I would still take “This River Is Wild” over it once, just to surprise the field.

• kicklover October 26, 2026

  I’m with the deep-cut contingent. “This River Is Wild” has the kind of full-tilt ending that would work far better than another safe mid-set hit; I’d put it in every festival setlist.

• falsetto October 27, 2026

  I’ll never complain about Mr. Brightside, but When You Were Young is the one I’d want roaring across that field.

• moonghost73 October 27, 2026

  The deep-cut slot is where reputations are made; Mr Brightside will survive without our assistance.

• BasslineWave October 27, 2026

  Sam’s Town truthers, rise up.

• goldencoyote October 27, 2026

  hard to argue with that. even when the set leans on the obvious ones, they know exactly how to make a festival crowd sound enormous.

• rooftopcore October 28, 2026

  Sam’s Town forever, honestly.

• goldenghost October 28, 2026

  Exactly. Let Mr. Brightside have its annual shift off.

• lunarrooftop October 28, 2026

  YES, That River Is Wild would’ve been absolute mayhem 😭

• cosmicwolf October 29, 2026

  sam’s town truthers stay winning 🔥

• coldclub October 30, 2026

  I would take “Read My Mind” over both of the obvious choices, honestly.

• RainyHarmony65 October 30, 2026

  read my mind is the actual answer tbh

• rooftopfox03 October 30, 2026

  spaceman deserves the chaos too

• harmonygarden October 31, 2026

  No complaints whatsoever.

• quietcomet November 1, 2026

  spaceman would be such a perfect left-field festival shout tbh

• foxwave November 1, 2026

  Hot Fuss gets all the headlines, but I’d still pick “Runaways” as the huge-field Killers song. That chorus is built for a crowd.

• KickSynth November 2, 2026

  honestly, “caution” would go ridiculously hard in a glasto crowd — newer killers deserves more love.

• loudmelody November 2, 2026

  Dying Breed would be absolutely massive in a field like that imo. newer Killers deserves its big Glasto moment too.

• AnalogHeadliner November 2, 2026

  All These Things That I’ve Done, surely.

• quietsounds November 2, 2026

  when you were young is the proper answer imo — that final chorus in a huge field is basically cheating. no shade to mr brightside, but it’s not even their best big singalong.

• kicklover November 2, 2026

  The obvious closer is obvious, but I’d take “This River Is Wild” over half the expected big moments. That song has the kind of lift a festival set needs without feeling like the same old answer. What’s everyone’s one Killers song they’d sneak into a headline set?

• heavy_kick62 November 2, 2026

  Top 5 is fair tbh, even the deep cuts somehow arrive wearing a stadium-sized coat.

• cosmic_head03 November 3, 2026

  Bling (Confession of a King), please.

• rainyfox4 November 4, 2026

  a dustland fairytale is still the emotional nuclear option for me. not the loudest pick, just the one that would flatten a field.

• coastallover November 4, 2026

  I would still make room for “For Reasons Unknown” before one of the inevitable big hitters. The older material is usually the sharpest side of The Killers for me, and that one deserves more festival-set love.

• lunarrooftop November 4, 2026

  I’m with you — I’d take Caution over another automatic Mr. Brightside lap in a heartbeat.

• cosmicraven November 5, 2026

  absolutely elite band tbh

• feedbackwave8 November 6, 2026

  Bling would be my curveball pick.

• quietsounds November 6, 2026

  honestly “Human” is the one i’d want in that field — pure hands-in-the-air nonsense in the best way

• MidnightDiner November 7, 2026

  Read My Mind, easily.

• coldbridge85 November 7, 2026

  Glamorous Indie Rock & Roll, cowards.

• restlessmoth November 8, 2026

  My unpopular pick is “My Own Soul’s Warning” — I would take that over another lap around the obvious hits.

• headliner26 November 8, 2026

  Midnight Show, no further questions.

• loud_club November 8, 2026

  “Runaways” is the one I would fight to keep in the set. It has the big chorus people want from the hits, but it still feels a little less automatic.

• cassettehead November 9, 2026

  “This River Is Wild” wins.

• mothsynth November 9, 2026

  Caution deserves more festival love.

• moonghost73 November 9, 2026

  No notes. Absolute chaos.

• cosmic_head03 November 9, 2026

  Exactly — give me “Midnight Show” over the safest hit parade any day.

• MidnightDiner November 9, 2026

  “Uncle Jonny” would be absolute chaos in a festival set, tbh.

• lunarrooftop November 9, 2026

  When You Were Young into All These Things That I’ve Done would be completely unfair tbh 😭

• BrightDemo02 November 10, 2026

  I’m taking Jenny Was a Friend.
