Out of seemingly nowhere last week, I decided to listen to the entire discography of Duran Duran. Mind you, it has been months since I listened to any Duran Duran, outside of what I needed to do in order to write the reviews Amanda and I have been working on. For a while after the… Continue reading Leaving a Light On
Author: Daily Duranie
Once upon a time, there were two Duran Duran fans. One named Amanda, the other named Rhonda. Over many vodka tonics, they would laugh about the idea of one day writing a book about their fan experiences. While that manuscript is still being composed...Rhonda thought they should write a blog. (What was she THINKING?!) Lo and behold: The Daily Duranie was born.
Let’s Chat About Nick!
It’s our favorite day again! This week, it’s all about Nick Rhodes for Vodka Friday. We talk about everything from his new project with Wendy Bevan, to the challenge of promoting an album during a pandemic…and we even get into a serious (or not so) discussion about sexism, aging….and what that might have to do… Continue reading Let’s Chat About Nick!
Are Duran Duran Concerts On the Horizon?
Without giving much away, I’m just going to say that this episode of My Own Way is all about concerts. Check out the podcast, and let’s get talking about it! -R
The Rio Collection
This week, my schedule shifted a little bit. For the past year, Wednesdays have been focused on meetings, planning and professional development. It has been a nice break in the middle of a teaching week. Now, there has been a shift to having that planning day on Mondays. Don’t ask me why. I don’t get… Continue reading The Rio Collection
All Along the Water
So, something interesting happened when Daily Duranie took a look at our upcoming review schedule. We realized that along the way (as opposed to the water…which is something very different, indeed), we forgot to finish reviewing about half of the Liberty album. We suspect it was because once this site had been redone, we weren’t… Continue reading All Along the Water
The Week in DD History – March 7-13, 2021
Well, people of the world….we’ve made it to March. I am pretty sure that I’m not the only one spying the ending date of this week knowing that at least for us here in California, it will mark a year since we entered lockdown. I can’t say I am celebrating. It is one hell of… Continue reading The Week in DD History – March 7-13, 2021
Random Fandom: Presale Practice
I have bought a lot of concert tickets throughout my life. I remember my very first attempt to get tickets to a show. As a kid, I desperately wanted to go to concerts. Desperately. I begged and begged my mom with no luck. Her rule was simple. I was allowed to go when I was… Continue reading Random Fandom: Presale Practice
You know what day it is…
Join us as we sit down for a chat with our buddy Sandra from Windsor, Canada!
Album News and More!!
Did I grab your attention? <big grin> For today’s My Own Way, I listened to the February Katy Kafe with Nick. I took about two pages of notes, and then sat down to do a podcast about the whole thing just to share with all of you! Once again, I want to remind you all… Continue reading Album News and More!!
Sticks and Picks
Sticks Okay, so if you got me into a dark corner of a bar and supplied me with a vodka tonic or two, I’d probably admit that the one memorabilia item I don’t have but would really LOVE, is just one of Roger’s drumsticks. Whoops. Turns out I don’t need a vodka tonic at all… Continue reading Sticks and Picks
