Lost in Fandom: Comparing ABC’s Lost to Duran Duran

I recently re-watched all six seasons of the hit ABC show Lost. During the show’s run, I would read several blogs and message boards to see what theories other fans had about the show. I revisited some of those blogs as I binge watched it last month, and I have to say, there are definitely… Continue reading Lost in Fandom: Comparing ABC’s Lost to Duran Duran

Feel It in the Air: Duran Duran – Mohegan Sun

On Thursday April 7, I attended my 16th Duran Duran show. Although I’m a lifelong American fan dating back to Rio, I had never seen the band until 1997.

Celebrating Pop Art and Artistic Influence

On today’s date in 1987, the world lost Andy Warhol. Many, if not most Duranies are at least familiar with the name – if not for his infamous soup can artwork, than definitely for his friendship with Nick Rhodes. I remember hearing that he’d died, likely from television or perhaps the radio, and wondering how… Continue reading Celebrating Pop Art and Artistic Influence
