I think I told you I saw them in their heyday on the "Reflex" tour with Culture Club. Still have the Rio album and cover (was really into Patrick Nagel, the artist who did that cover). No more West Coast dates?

They are coming to the Bay Area. I was afraid they may have lost it but glad to hear you enjoyed the show.

I'll be there this Saturday to see them in Atlanta at Chastain.

I've got an extra ticket if anyone's interested ($100).

I have to say though, and this is hard as a fan of the band, that their latest album is the worst one they've ever made.

rubber duckie! yes yes we have similar music tastes for sure. i had the opportunity to surf your ipod with your eldest. see you in august air show!!!

sorriineneie go!!! you wont be sorry especially if you're down with goldfrapp. in the middle of the set they do this DJ kinda thing where they just all play keyboards kraftwerk style. they did maybe 6 songs like this and then return to their instruments. jesus it was great. i believe i found a video of it.




mick yes i agree the new albums take alot longer to grow on the mature ear. had i known how much fun i was going to have i would have gone both nights. i hope you have a blast.

oh course a bunch of krypton people love duran duran.....what a bunch of aholes!

I saw them a few years ago without the 'original' lineup, here in Charlotte. It was a great show. Might have been during the Pop Trash era.

Who are they using for a guitarist now? I wonder why Andy left again?

DD can call me or contact me here at LT. i think i can handle Andy's parts...

but while we're on the subject: the Cure just kicked off their u.s. tour here in the D.C. on friday nite. Played for 3 hours, 39 songs. Any Cure fan needs to see them. They rocked it hard. 3 encores. Yep, three!

I just heard during tonight's Chicago Cubs game, that Duran Duran will be singing "Take Me Out To The Ballgame" during the seventh inning stretch at Wrigley Field Tuesday night (May 13th). It will be televised on the local (Chicago) Comcast Sports Net channel.

I grew up on Duran Duran. Saw them 2 times in Pittsburgh after they slowed down around 1990 and 1993.

Still one of my favorites.

Ordinary world is my favorite song from them. I have to say that I still live in the 80's music was so much better back then. Actually, Music and TV was better then, Motion pictures are better today.

Anyway would love to see Duran Duran in concert again. They rock.

They get a few hotties up on stage for a wet burka contest towards the end of the show. Very cool.
