Duran Duran: Madison 1984

Today’s Duran Duran history takes us back to 1984 when Duran Duran played at the Dane County Coliseum in Madison, Wisconsin.  This show was part of the Sing Blue Silver Tour and a band called Combo Audio opened up for them.

To the best of my knowledge, this is the only time that Duran Duran has played in Madison.  Of course, they would never come here now since I live here and all.  Ha!

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. I am trying to find any local newspaper clippings about their visit, because it was a HUGE deal. I think Mayor Anthony’s son declared it”Duran Duran Day” do you remember that? I was at that concert too!!! I was only 12 years old and it was my first concert and it was EPIC!!! Let’s campaign to get them to come back!

    1. I love that their visit was a big deal! Unfortunately, I wasn’t living in Madison then but would love to encourage them to come back now. 🙂 -A
