helped a fan make one big memorable moment at when they invited him on stage to play the drums with them over the weekend.
Holding up a sign, a young fan named Ozzy had penned a request to have a go on the drum kit – something that has become a tradition at the band’s gigs.
Frontman Brandon Flowers, 42, noticed the young man in the crowd and took a break from singing their hits to chat with him.
He was filmed as he addressed Ozzy and could be heard saying: ‘Let the kid up. Here we go’.
Brandon carried on chatting with the packed festival field and explained to them he was going to let the fan jam with them.
He started: ‘Let me introduce you to Ozzy. He’s from outside of Bath. Alright you ready for this?’
An eager Ozzy nodded back and picked up the sticks in preparation for the performance of his life as the band played the intro to For Reasons Unknown.
‘Ozzy everybody,’ the lead singer exclaimed after the song had ended and stood next to the budding star as he whipped out his phone for a selfie.
The incredible footage was uploaded to BBC Radio 1’s Instagram account following which Ozzy himself left a comment that read: ‘Absolutely insane, thank you to the killers so much!!’
Another social media user claiming to be the young drummer’s girlfriend also wrote underneath the clip: ‘This is my boyfriend!!!! he absolutely smashed it. I’m so so so unbelievably proud of him <3’
Ozzy also reshared the moment to his own account and typed a caption to go with it that said: ‘Playing READING festival MainStage with THE KILLERS last night was unreal. A dream come true.’

Scottish singer Lewis had been lined up to play but – following his performance at Glastonbury this year – he announced on his social media accounts that he would be ‘taking a break’ from touring.
During The 1975’s performance, Matty asked the crowd to applaud Lewis and said: ‘Can we have a big, the loudest round of applause in our set for Mr Lewis Capaldi, who couldn’t make it this evening.
‘Give it up for Lewis. Give it up for Lewis.’
