This time of year always makes Rhonda and I a little nostalgic. I’m sure that part of that is because it is the start of the holiday season. On top of that, it marks the anniversary of a trip we took to the UK to see some shows. If you have been reading this blog… Continue reading Vodka Friday: UK Tour ’11 Memories

Vodka Friday: Flies on the Wall
Did you answer yesterday’s poll question? It was a good one, wasn’t it? We thought so. After all, haven’t all fans wished at one point or another to be there in the studio, to watch the magic happen? We just asked people to limit it to ONE album, which is the hard part. Let’s get… Continue reading Vodka Friday: Flies on the Wall
Vodka Friday: November Fan of the Month
A few Vodka Fridays ago, Rhonda and I introduced the idea of celebrating fans! After all, this blog started out to tell the state of Duranie-dom. What is it like? What is the state of our fan community? We decided we were not going to focus on the latest news alert or try to report… Continue reading Vodka Friday: November Fan of the Month

Vodka Friday: Voodoo Music Festival Memories and Nightmares
On October 29th, 2006, Duran Duran headlined the Sunday night of the Voodoo Music Festival in New Orleans. We thought we were so smart in buying these cheap $25 tickets with the plan of hanging out all day long to secure an amazing spot for our beloved Duran. Let me tell you that by the… Continue reading Vodka Friday: Voodoo Music Festival Memories and Nightmares
Vodka Friday: Happy Birthday Simon!
Rumor has it that next week someone is celebrating a birthday. Usually, we write a little post about said band member when their day of birth comes around but we figured we would do something different this time. Why not do a Vodka Friday about the birthday boy?! We share some stories, some highlights, some… Continue reading Vodka Friday: Happy Birthday Simon!
Vodka Friday: We Want You!
No, this is not a propaganda poster. This is not an advertisement to convince you to join the army or some other organization. (Yes, I am a history teacher. Yes, I cover propaganda.) Instead, this is about Rhonda and myself centering ourselves and this blog around our main mission, which is the fans. We originally… Continue reading Vodka Friday: We Want You!
Vodka Friday: The Video Commentary That Wasn’t…
A few weeks ago, you all might remember that we shared a Vodka Friday video with all of you in which we watched the video for My Own Way and gave commentary. Oh wait…we didn’t quite do that. No, we could only share the “after video” commentary, which was a big bummer. We had to… Continue reading Vodka Friday: The Video Commentary That Wasn’t…
Vodka Friday: Paper Gods Tour Fall 2015 Memories
I’m am beyond glad that it is Friday! I’m not getting a day off as I’ll be working my second (unpaid) job but glad that I don’t have to try to convince 15 year olds that it is really okay to turn their video on during zoom class for at least a couple of days.… Continue reading Vodka Friday: Paper Gods Tour Fall 2015 Memories
Vodka Friday: Convention Memories
Did you know that there was a Duran Duran fans convention in September of 2004? Not only did both of us attend said convention in New Orleans but that is where we met. Think about that for a second. Had we not attended that particular event, there would be no Daily Duranie. (Maybe some of… Continue reading Vodka Friday: Convention Memories
