History

Throughout the summer of 2017, The Killers played festivals across Europe and North America as well as performances in smaller venues. At many of these shows, the band previewed several new songs from the then-upcoming album Wonderful Wonderful including the singles "The Man" and "Run for Cover".[1] On August 28, 2017, the band announced on its website and via Instagram and Twitter posts that guitarist Dave Keuning and bassist Mark Stoermer would not be present on the tour; guitarist/keyboardist Ted Sablay and bassist/keyboardist/guitarist Jake Blanton, both of whom have toured with the band in the past, would fill in for Keuning and Stoermer respectively.[2] The band also added more touring musicians: Robbie Connolly (keyboards, guitar), Taylor Milne (guitar, keyboards) and backing vocalists Erica Canales, Danielle Withers and Amanda Brown. On December 1, 2017, Keuning and Stoermer performed with the band in Las Vegas for the Vegas Strong Benefit Concert, raising money for victims of the October 1 music festival shooting.
