Anyone else think that Brandon Flower's (The Killers) wishes he were Freddie Mercury (Queen)?

Anyone else see the similarities? I saw The Killers in concert a few months back and totally got the feeling Mr. Flowers' is definintly a Queen Fan!

I have also seen them in concert and they are deffinitely very similar. Many people beleive that he is bisexual, "Andy, your a star" and "Somebody told me" both are considered to have a bit of sexual ambiguity and his make-up in the Mr. Brightside video... he is a very flamboyant on stage and almost demands energy from the audience, much like Freddy but is still a little toned down and has a little less of the flare that Mercury possessed.
Reply:no i don't see any similarities.
Reply:I don't think Flowers wishes he was Mercury. I haven't seen The Killers live, but I don't think his persona is as "over the top" as Freddie was. Flowers is certainly charismatic and commading, but surely that's necessary for a singer in a rock band. There's definetely an 80's influence in The Killers music, but it obviously works for them, because they're selling lots of records.
Reply:Lol, you never know.
Reply:Yeah! I have thought that and he reminds me alot of Elton John with his constant changing - guess he can't figure out what he wants to be. One thing for sure - he can't strut around like Mercury did!
Reply:I think he was influenced by good ol' Freddie some. I doubt that he "wishes" to be another lead singer who dies before their time.





Yeah, I was draw to the Killers because of the blatant Queen tributationess.





Is that a word? Hmm....
Reply:I am totally with you on that one!

How did the packers do in the draft?

I wanted them to pick up brandon flowers, then we trdaded down for Jordy Nelson? I think KC had the best draft, also ended up w/ flowers coincidentally. So how did the packers do, and how did your team do?

How did the packers do in the draft?
I give them a B- because they got a few players that provide depth, but they didn't really wow me yet. We're just going to have to wait and see how some of the players pan out.
Reply:Well, the Packers definitely believe that Brett Favre is retired, and they sent him a message just in case he was reconsidering his situation when they picked Louisville quarterback Brian Brohm with the 58th overall pick in a trade with the Browns. Brohm slid this season even though he started the year as a potential top 10 quarterback. The Packers went for value, much like Ted Thompson did when he grabbed a sliding Aaron Rodgers a few years back. The Packers spend their first choice on Kansas State WR Jordy Nelson, who caught 122 passes last season. Nelson has track speed, but the Packers already have a lot of youth at this position. Young defenders Jeremy Thompson, an end from Wake Forest, and Patrick Lee, a cornerback from Auburn, are very athletic guys who figure to stick and compete on a very young defense.


Grade: C+
Reply:The Packers did ok, if picking up another young quarterback with no seasoning like Aaron Rodgers is good then they did good. The Brohm pick might come back to hurt them or it could push Rodgers to do more. As a Vikings fan I really hope it hurts them. But who cares because Jared Allen will throw both of them on their cans on the opening game on Monday night.
Reply:Packers: B-


My team the Bengals: C (screw Chad) lets hope those wide recievers play good.





It's hard to grade a draft because you never know! Although, I firmly believe the Chiefs had the best draft.... but IN 5 years you may look back and give them an F instead of an A
Reply:I've had my doubts about Ted Thompson but you can't argue with the results. Besides when it comes to draft classes you really don't know what you got until a few years done the road.
Reply:Very well actually They got some solid offensive people.
Reply:they did better than the falcons that is for sure

What type of tie is Brandon Flowers of The Killers wearing called?

What type of tie is Brandon Flowers of The Killers wearing called?
I think that its actually a normal 'skinny tie' but its tied like a dicky-bow with the ends left hanging out!


Hope that makes sense but my boyfriend has a skinny black tie %26amp; we tried to re-create Brandons look for the laugh (when I read this question!) sad I know! but anyway, if you try to tie a tie like a 'dicky bow' and instead of having the 'bow' part just pull them out to hang, it looks just like Brandons!!


Hope this helps you! Its worth a try though as you'll see what I mean!! Good Luck!! :-) x
Reply:Maybe a bow tie worn differently? or a cravat. I looked on wikipedia, that's how bored i was.
