There has been a long history of tension between Georgia and Russia, after the latter invaded the country in 2008.The Killers wrote in a statement: “Good people of Georgia, it was never our intention to offend anyone!

We have a longstanding tradition of inviting people to play drums and it seemed from the stage that the initial response from the crowd indicated that they were okay with tonight’s audience participation member coming onstage with us.“We recognize that a comment, meant to suggest that all of the Killers’ audience and fans are ‘brothers and sisters’ could be misconstrued.
