The Killers performed last night at the storied Minneapolis venue First Avenue. The band paid tribute to Minneapolis-native Prince by covering one of The Purple One’s songs.
After opening the concert with “Sam’s Town,” The Killers tackled Prince’s “I Could Never Take The Place Of Your Man.” The song appeared on Prince’s 1987 album, Sign O’The Times.
