When the Killers open for U2 in Europe this summer, Brandon Flowers hopes Bono will invite him onstage for a song.

 

The Killers frontman confessed to RollingStone.com: "I really love the song 'In a Little While,' from All That You Can't Leave Behind. And I'd die to just be onstage with them and sing that one line, "And when I go there" [from The Joshua Tree's "Where the Streets Have No Name"]. That's the part for me."

 

So is there any U2 song Flowers WOULDN'T want to sing? He says, "I was in the car...singing 'Pride.' I have some lungs on me, but I cannot hit those high notes. So I hope Bono doesn't call me out for that one."
