I feel like something happened this week. What took place? I know that the week felt like the longest month but was there something fandom related?! I’m kidding. Of course, I know this past week tickets went on sale for Duran’s 2023 North American Tour Dates. (I use the term North American loosely. It is… Continue reading Looking at the Reasons for Me to Head Back

Survey: Which Song Do You Like Better?
It has been WAY too long since I published a survey. I have been asking about the songs from Future Past. Before I get to the next set of songs, here’s the winner from the previous survey:
April Survey: Which Song Do You Like Better?
The winner from March: Anniversary
Future Past, Numbers, and Opinions
When I started thinking about what to do with today’s blog post, I knew that I wanted it to be Future Past focused. After all, the album is too new to move on, in my opinion. But what to write about, specifically? I started thinking about the fact that this is Duran’s 15th album. What… Continue reading Future Past, Numbers, and Opinions
Flashback Friday: Some Like It Hot
Despite the title, this blog post is not about Power Station or their song, Some Like It Hot. No, it is a reference to the hottest shows I have ever seen. Hottest, in this case, is not about how a band member or members look but about the literal temperature. It seems fitting these days… Continue reading Flashback Friday: Some Like It Hot
Random Fandom: Joining a fan community
Yesterday, I had a meeting with a former colleague of mine and her brother. In trying to share information about me, my friend and colleague mentioned the Daily Duranie. This would make sense, especially since the blog got started when I was working with her. The blog took up a lot of our time as… Continue reading Random Fandom: Joining a fan community
Point of View – 1/4/21
Today, I wanted to address a specific question that a few people asked me in regard to something I’d said on the Vodka Friday video from last week. Since this is something emotional, I felt that it might be better addressed over a video than through my writing, and I hope it explains my feelings… Continue reading Point of View – 1/4/21
Random Fandom: Damn Fandom Problems
You would think by now that I would know better than to search online randomly about fandom. Nonetheless, I found myself doing that very thing this week. Anything new out there about fandom that I missed during the election season? Anything that I could read to avoid doing the grading that I desperately need to… Continue reading Random Fandom: Damn Fandom Problems
Vodka Friday: November Fan of the Month
A few Vodka Fridays ago, Rhonda and I introduced the idea of celebrating fans! After all, this blog started out to tell the state of Duranie-dom. What is it like? What is the state of our fan community? We decided we were not going to focus on the latest news alert or try to report… Continue reading Vodka Friday: November Fan of the Month
Vodka Friday: Paper Gods Tour Fall 2015 Memories
I’m am beyond glad that it is Friday! I’m not getting a day off as I’ll be working my second (unpaid) job but glad that I don’t have to try to convince 15 year olds that it is really okay to turn their video on during zoom class for at least a couple of days.… Continue reading Vodka Friday: Paper Gods Tour Fall 2015 Memories
