The Killers are back — to celebrate a decade of the band’s ‘Sam’s Town’ album at the namesake Las Vegas resort

The Killers return to the band’s Las Vegas roots with concerts and other activities to mark the 10th anniversary of their second album.

The band’s “Sam’s Town” album is named after the Las Vegas hotel-casino popular with locals. The pop culture website A.V. Club calls the album a “love letter to Las Vegas on vinyl.”

The Killers will perform Sept. 30 and Oct. 1— two nights only — at the original Sam’s Town.

Unlike the group’s last Vegas show at the gala opening of T-Mobile Arena in April, this fall’s shows will take them to a much-smaller venue eight miles east of the Strip.

Tickets cost $99.50 and go on sale 10 a.m. Friday. Members of the Killers’ fan club will get first dibs during a pre-sale starting 10 a.m. Wednesday.

And there’s more Killer things to do. Two music experts will take guests on bus tours of Las Vegas on the same dates as the concerts.

The tours visit sites significant to band members during their early years, including Battle Born Studios and the Flamingo resort. Tickets cost $99.

“Sam’s Town” will also be re-released on vinyl as part of the celebrations. The album was first released on Oct. 2, 2006.

According to a news release, profits from the concerts will be donated to Las Vegas charities for addiction recovery and the homeless.
