To be young, hip and Mormon

With his manly stubble, flannel shirt and skinny black jeans, Brandon Flowers looks every bit the hipster frontman for his rock band, the Killers.

With songs about drowning one's sorrows in bourbon or exploring the seedy underbelly of his hometown, Las Vegas, Flowers has sold more than 15 million records worldwide. In the past, he has been candid about his drinking, smoking and taste for blackjack.

In the spirit of Halloween, the band dressed a little more extravagantly than they usually do for their shows, Robinnette said. The ’80s came to life: The singer looked like Madonna, dressed up in a blonde wig and a belt that read “boytoy,” an allusion to the pop star’s famous buckle....
