I feel as though the past week has been a whirlwind, and I’m not even in the band! Each day has a variety: things to watch, articles to read, new music, and chart news I couldn’t have even imagined. Like many of you have mentioned, it has been difficult to keep up – a very… Continue reading Plastic Paradise

Durham, 2012: Magical Memories
I have decided that I very much enjoy these Flashback Fridays. Each one supplies the opportunity to skip down memory lane a bit. While I know the band prefers the here and now, I don’t mind being the one to stir up the memory pot a little from time to time! This week, I’m thinking… Continue reading Durham, 2012: Magical Memories
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!
In My Bones – the Podcast “Primer”
So, once upon a time, I decided to record a podcast as a sort of primer to In My Bones. Thinking that perhaps it might be fun to talk about Dom’s new album as an <insert laughter here> unbiased reporter, I did my homework. I listened to the album approximately eleventy-thousand times, took copious notes,… Continue reading In My Bones – the Podcast “Primer”
Can You Feel It?
It’s time for a gushy, starry-eyed, fan post. Back when we first began writing blogs for Daily Duranie, Amanda and I swore we would not fill our pages with syrupy love letters to a band that was likely not even reading. We wanted to be taken seriously, even if we didn’t always take ourselves that… Continue reading Can You Feel It?
Fitting It In
How can a week be both monotonous and crazed? That’s how my weeks have felt. On one hand, I swear it is like living in a never-ending reel of “Groundhog Day”, but at the same time, I feel so busy! Things were fine when we were staying at home all of the time and I… Continue reading Fitting It In
In My Bones
So, today is the day that I’m supposed to write something random about fandom. I’m going to take that to mean I can pretty much write whatever I want…and since I’m a fan….it’s random anyway….!!! If you’re paying close attention, chances are that just the title of this very post itself will give it’s topic… Continue reading In My Bones
Sticks and Picks
Sticks Okay, so if you got me into a dark corner of a bar and supplied me with a vodka tonic or two, I’d probably admit that the one memorabilia item I don’t have but would really LOVE, is just one of Roger’s drumsticks. Whoops. Turns out I don’t need a vodka tonic at all… Continue reading Sticks and Picks
Let’s talk about that brand new video for “Five Years”!
Hey everybody, it’s Thursday, which means it’s time for My Own Way! Today’s blog is brought to you by way of YouTube, which means that yes, I did another video blog! In this blog, I talk about Instagram with Nick, YouTube chat with John, and, of course, that brand-spanking new video for “Five Years”…but I… Continue reading Let’s talk about that brand new video for “Five Years”!
