Duran Duran History: Gottschalk Live

Today’s Duran Duran history takes us back 3 shorts years to 2012 when John Taylor and Simon Le Bon appeared on the German TV show, Gottschalk Live.  The show was filmed in Berlin.  During this time, Duran Duran were touring Europe as part of the All You Need Is Now Tour.

I did manage to find a clip of this show.  Simon and John come out at about 13 minutes in.  They talked about vinyl records, working with John living in LA, Duran’s audience and lots more.

What did you think of it?  Reaction to it?

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.

  1. Hallo Rhonda, Hallo Amanda.

    I really must apologize for this poor moderation.
    This program is not run long. Thomas Gottschalk was always good with Wetten Dass .. But here … Just the question,, Have you started with CD’s or even vinyl? ” Bad repared. John had constantly sound problems. The poor guys. But I thought it was sweet as Simon had looked as if he had seen the picture of Yasmin. Goods love. Real sweet.
    Greetings
