The Killers interrupt UK show to check on elderly Crowdsurfer – DIAL NEWS

The Killers performed in Manchester, UK on Saturday night, but interrupted the show when an elderly fan started crowd surfing.

by NMEVocalist Brandon Flowers noticed the man being carried over the barrier at Emirates Old Trafford during the band’s set and wanted to make sure he was okay.

Although he appeared to be bleeding from his head, the man, named Billy, was smiling as Flowers rushed to hug him and introduce him. “Billy was trying to surf, and he looks like he’s 68 or 69,” the singer told the audience upon returning to the stage. “I said, ‘Billy, what are you doing?’ Do you know what he said? “I’m having fun,” he said.
