The Killers headlined the third day of Lollapalooza on Saturday. While in Chicago, Vegas' finest paid tribute to a Chicago band, Material Issue, covering their 1991 song "Very First Lie."

The '90s power pop trio was a big influence on the Killers, frontman Brandon Flowers told the Lolla crowd. "They have some superb records -- you should check them out," he added. Watch some fan-captured clips of the Killers covering "Very First Lie" below.
