Brandon Flowers: I'd Still Be Working In A Casino If Not For The Killers

September 3, 2010
Brandon Flowers: I'd Still Be Working In A Casino If Not For The KillersBrandon Flowers has admitted that he would probably be working in a casino if it was not for The Killers' success.

The singer, who is preparing to release his debut solo album, used to work in a Las Vegas casino before he joined the band.

“It was exciting for me to work for tips and the hustle and bustle,” he told XFM.

"When I was 16 I was [in Vegas] and my parents were living in another state. When I was that age, it was very fun... we all got our fake IDs and went through that.

“I guess it was good I got it out of my system."

Flowers' solo album 'Flamingo' is released on Monday (September 6). The singer is set to embark on a UK tour in October.
