I’m Not Thinking About the Future

I really cannot believe that for Amanda and I, this tour is quickly coming to an end. We waited so long for the time to come, and now those moments are drawing to a close. We do still have one final show to attend in Chula Vista tomorrow, and it has been a fantastic time so far.… Continue reading I’m Not Thinking About the Future

Show Day in Vegas!

Also on today’s date, but in 2005, Duran Duran played in Las Vegas at the Grand Slam for the Children charity event (Andre Agassi)  at the MGM Garden Arena.  A crowd of Duranies descended upon Vegas for a couple of nights to… Continue reading Today in Duran History – Serious (and a little bit of Vegas, too…)
