True confession: I didn’t hear the show from Miami on Saturday night. I was thrilled it was being streamed, but what I forgot in my excitement was that I had somewhere else I had to be – my daughter’s dance show. I probably could have snuck in the first portion of it before we needed… Continue reading Miami and that set list: Maybe it’s time to stop worrying about it?

No rest for the weary?
When I last saw Duran Duran in July of this year, the shows were bittersweet. Of course I enjoyed seeing them. I always do. Yes, I’ve seen them perform that same setlist or very similar many times now, and in tours past I would comment on how I’d wish they’d change it up. I still… Continue reading No rest for the weary?

Long days are coming up and staying out and playing
It is Lyric Friday…no wait, that isn’t right. It is Lyric Sunday! What was my result when I hit shuffle? Taste the Summer. I call that irony considering that we have now entered the winter holiday season. Christmas is a month away. Despite that, I took a gander at the lyrics and picked out a… Continue reading Long days are coming up and staying out and playing
I’m Thankful…
Yesterday, Rhonda wrote a heartfelt blog about what she is grateful for during this Thanksgiving holiday so I figured that today might be my turn. Like Rhonda, I’m very thankful for my family.

The First World Problem of Front Row
So the pre-sale for Vegas is tomorrow. Amanda and I, along with our touring buddies, have a plan. The general plan is simple: get tickets. Let’s be honest here, shall we? I mean, I’ve already admitted I’m an addict—so really, there’s no holding back now. Why bother? I’d love front row. Who wouldn’t? There isn’t… Continue reading The First World Problem of Front Row
My Name is Rhonda, and I am an addict.
My name is Rhonda, and I am an addict. On Tuesday I ran across a rumor. You may have heard or seen it yourself, although I didn’t see many people talking about it. Apparently word was out that Duran had plans to play at The Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas on December 30th. Like many… Continue reading My Name is Rhonda, and I am an addict.
On this date in DD History – The Joint in Vegas!
Do you remember 2003? I sure do. It was the summer of Duran Duran shows, and not just “ordinary” Duran Duran shows…but reunion shows. John, Simon, Roger, Nick and Andy. On stage. Together. For the first time in 20-some years. Complete insanity. My summer began that year with a show in Costa Mesa at the Pacific Amphitheater.… Continue reading On this date in DD History – The Joint in Vegas!
