Duran Duran History – Diamond Awards

Today’s Duran Duran history takes us back to the Notorious era of 1986 when Duran Duran received an award at the Diamond Awards Festival in Antwerp, Belgium.  I’m not sure what the award was specifically for and from what I read, this was the first year of these awards.

While there at the awards ceremony, the band also performed (lip-synched) the songs, “Notorious” and “Vertigo”.

According to YouTube, this is the performance of “Notorious”:

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.
