LONGVIEW, Texas — In the words of Lizzie McGuire, "hey now, hey now, this is what dreams are made of!" The dreams of an East Texas teen came true this past weekend when he played drums for his favorite band, The Killers.

Others in the crowd began to notice and helped Coleman get the attention of lead singer Brandon Flowers and other members of the band. 

He was called up to the stage and helped close out the show with band's 2007 song "For Reasons Unknown." 

Before getting off stage, band members congratulated Coleman for his debut and he took a video of himself to celebrate.
