So a week has passed since we got the news about the cancelation of The Killers Asian Tour.  Naturally there are mixed reviews about this piece of information wherein some say "Good im glad they're not coming because i cant believe they compared themselves with Led Zeppelin and Nirvana!" and others say "Well there's still a chance that their tour is just postponed but they may be here later on in the year". 

for OdysseyLive.Net, we just feel bad that we are not going to be able to give our online winners the prize they worked so hard for.  Our sincerest apologies to our winners but dont worry, we are trying to come up with a prize for you all the same. 

Further Updates: January 25

So the weekend has passed and the story is not exactly straight!  Some people believe that the band is broken up and will no longer continue, others are saying that this is NOT a canceled show but instead it is merely postponed in order to give the band time to rest before going back on tour.  While no one can really confirm anything with OdysseyLive.Net, we will remain posted for further details.

In the meantime, enjoy this:

Killers: 'We want to knock Led Zeppelin and Nirvana off their pedestals'

Apparently The Killers are kind of crazy and deeply involved with being on their high horse.

Im crossing my fingers that like the Eraserheads Reunion concert someone is able to make it happen inspite of the original cancelation.  However, this doesn't seem to be a situation wherein Marlboro simply backed out and Smart and MTV and Radiohead Productions (if im not mistaken) were able to pick it up and still make it happen.
