Today, I’m writing about another favorite touring memory. This time, it is Glasgow, 2011. Actually, that’s not even completely true because we stayed in Edinburgh that night, but let’s just call it Glasgow out of ease. This is the final concert for Amanda and I before we fly back to America the following day. As… Continue reading Glasgow 2011
Music Lives!
This past weekend, I went to my first concert since Covid began. It was everything I had hoped and wished for…and I even danced! I have to believe that this is only the beginning, and that this summer will bring the same joy I felt this weekend to many others across the globe. Let’s talk… Continue reading Music Lives!
Big Bang Generation
We are beginning this week with a Big Bang as we listen to the second track off of Medazzaland – Big Bang Generation. One of the only true dance tracks off of this album, Warren Cuccurullo stated that most of the finished album was derived from reworked TV Mania material written by himself and Nick… Continue reading Big Bang Generation
What is Red, Green, White, and Black all over?
Like many, I went online shopping last week. As it turns out, a certain band released a certain single named “Invisible”. If you’re already feeling lost, you need to turn around, go back and do your homework. Read last weeks blogs, watch a couple of videos, and get back to me. The forthcoming album, out… Continue reading What is Red, Green, White, and Black all over?
The Week in DD History: May 23 to May 29
What a week last week was! I suspect that Duran fans all around the world will remember last week for a very long time. I love that we had some new things to add to the Duran calendar. Will this next week be as monumental? Was it in the past? May 23: Simon joined Smashing… Continue reading The Week in DD History: May 23 to May 29
Guardian Article Reactions
For a long time, I struggled to figure out what to write about because not much was happening in Duranland. This week has been the exact opposite. It feels like a LOT has been happening. Am I the only one thinking that or is it simply because it has been so quiet that it is… Continue reading Guardian Article Reactions
Ready for a little more “Invisible”?
It’s Friday! There’s vodka…and there’s the entire Daily Duranie team on a Zoom call! Hey, would you look at that, we CAN all be on the same screen at once! What could possibly go wrong??! Join us for another wildly entertaining afternoon of Rhonda attempting to drive the Vodka Friday train. Will they agree that… Continue reading Ready for a little more “Invisible”?
Invisible, maybe…but also alive!
Today is Thursday, which means it’s time for a My Own Way post! I don’t know about anyone else in Duranland, but I’m still exhausted from yesterday! I am way out of practice when it comes to video premieres, first single releases, apparently. I have never heard my phone as active as it was yesterday,… Continue reading Invisible, maybe…but also alive!
Are You Feeling Numb?
As promised, Amanda and I sat down to quickly assess our initial reactions to “Invisible”. The spoiler is simply that if we didn’t love the song…we wouldn’t have done a video. (LESSON LEARNED, THANK YOU!) At Amanda’s urging, I agreed to go ahead and do a little something, just because we were feeling so good… Continue reading Are You Feeling Numb?
Before it all changed
I know everyone is obsessing over the new single, “Invisible” today. You should be. I certainly am! However, on Monday evening, it hit me that everything I thought I knew about Duran Duran was about to change. One more tiny piece in their puzzle was about to be added. The moment seemed, well, monumental in… Continue reading Before it all changed
