The world is YOUR oyster, at least for today. If you could re-record any of the following Duran Duran songs, which would you choose? Bonus points for commenting with what you chose and why!
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.
Memorabilia Medley: My favorite DD shirt
Welcome to one of the new columns we are doing where we find a piece of memorabilia and write about it. Originally I was going to do today’s as a video, but at the last minute I decided I’d rather just write. Easier and less “putting yourself out there”. I rarely wear Duran Duran shirts… Continue reading Memorabilia Medley: My favorite DD shirt
The Week in DD History – August 30-September 5, 2020
Well friends, Amanda is working hard to get her school year together, and so that means you get ME for another week of history!! These are just a few of the interesting DD historical factoids for this week over the course of their career!

Point of View – How do you listen to music?
I’ve been listening to a lot of new music lately. To do so, I use Spotify and, of course, Whooosh! Streaming serves a great purpose. We have access to a never-ending library of music, and it doesn’t take up any physical space beyond whatever device we’re listening on. It is convenient especially when I’m working… Continue reading Point of View – How do you listen to music?
The More We’re Different, the More We’re the Same
I’ve been listening to a lot of new music lately, thanks to my side gig with Jason doing The Encores Club, and Whooosh! with Simon and Katy. I’m far more up to date with what has been released, or what is due to come out. One of those new releases was The Killers album, Imploding… Continue reading The More We’re Different, the More We’re the Same

Let’s pretend you were back in high school, just for a second.
Only Duranies Would Get…
Has anyone ever seen this image? I saw it sometime over this summer. When I ran across it, I took note, laughed a little but I did not think too deeply about it. Later, though, it came up again and took it as a sign that maybe it would make a good or interesting post.… Continue reading Only Duranies Would Get…
The Week in DD History – August 23-29, 2020
It’s another fun-filled week in Duranie isolation during the times of Covid-19! I see many friends with children headed back to school, or to their computers, for the first week of distance learning. So, in order to break the monotony and take your minds off of your next Zoom call or Google Classroom meeting, here… Continue reading The Week in DD History – August 23-29, 2020
Introducing Vodka Friday 2.0
Welcome to Vodka Friday 2.0! Yes, we used to do Vodka Fridays. For awhile, we were pretty dang consistent. Well, now, it is back and better than ever (we hope!) as we have made a big change. This video explains it all, we think. Honestly, we aren’t really sure what all this includes as things… Continue reading Introducing Vodka Friday 2.0
The Week in DD History: August 16-22, 2020
So, here it is: our first post under the “History” category. Truthfully, my main goal here is to populate the site with some much-needed current content—but also, I haven’t blogged in a while. It is time. Boggles my mind that this week in 2012, I was hastily driving all over the southeast with Amanda. We… Continue reading The Week in DD History: August 16-22, 2020
