The Killers recently played in front of thousands at Vivint Arena in Salt Lake City. According to the YouTube description, a teenager from Lehi held a sign reading, "let me drum with my heroes" for most of the show. Toward the concert's end, frontman Brandon Flowers decided to roll the dice on the teen and called him to the stage.
The teenager from Lehi got behind the drum kit and played "For Reasons Unknown" along with the band. The teen played the tune flawlessly as The Killers drummer Ronnie Vannucci Jr. picked up a guitar and watched.
The video is a blast to watch, and I'm grateful this youth not only lived out a version of my dream but actually did it justice.
Ladies and gentlemen, take my advice - pull down your pants and slide on the ice. ʘ ͜ʖ ʘ

That’s awesome. Good on the band for letting a dream come true. Good on the kid for delivering the goods. Feel good moment all around.

That’s awesome! A tremendous experience for everyone involved. We need more stories like this given current events.

Love things that happen like that !! The kid is really good, or course at 18 he's no longer a kid.
