Paper Gods – Which Is Your Favorite?

As I continue to kind of sort out my final thoughts on all things Paper Gods, I’ve been thinking about the album itself.  This album took a while to grow on me.  Amanda and I spoke about it on the way home from San Francisco, and she surmised that this was a ‘thinking person’s’ album.… Continue reading Paper Gods – Which Is Your Favorite?

Favorite Show From Paper Gods Tour

I was thinking about the Paper Gods tour last night just before falling asleep. I had a great time at the shows I attended, without a doubt.  But, if I had to pick just one as my favorite show—which would it be? First of all, this is a personal question, in that my choice for favorite show… Continue reading Favorite Show From Paper Gods Tour

Think Yourself Lucky: Some thoughts on this tour

I’ve been thinking about the Paper Gods tour, or at least the shows that I attended. I have fantastic memories from the past few years, that is for sure. There really isn’t anything like seeing Duran Duran on stage, and being able to go to these shows with my best friend, knowing that however insane… Continue reading Think Yourself Lucky: Some thoughts on this tour

Paper Gods Tour: The Final Leg

I know the final leg of Paper Gods #Duranlive is coming because I see the tweets from DDHQ.  The posts with a stage shot, sparking my anticipation a bit. I look at the calendar and recognize that next week at this time (I’m starting to lose track of what day of the week it is… Continue reading Paper Gods Tour: The Final Leg

On the other side of what we’ll never know

Today is my last post for the week. I’ll be back on Monday as usual, but in the meantime, I have a very important event to attend on Saturday. My son Gavin will be graduating from high school. Those are words I wasn’t quite sure I’d ever get to write. It marks an ending, and… Continue reading On the other side of what we’ll never know

Were you at Sunfest in Palm Beach – 2016?

It is getting to the point where I am beginning to recall dates off of the Paper Gods tour on our “day in Duran history” calendar.  That seems hard to believe. Just last year on this very day, Duran Duran played in Palm Beach at Sunfest. It was a date on the Paper Gods tour,… Continue reading Were you at Sunfest in Palm Beach – 2016?

April 2017 Katy Kafe with Roger Taylor!

This past weekend, the gift of a gleaming new April 2017 Katy Kafe with Roger Taylor was posted on DuranDuranMusic for members. I gave it a listen yesterday afternoon, knowing I’d be blogging the highlights this morning. Roger and Katy covered a variety of subjects, and as always—I took notes and will cover the more… Continue reading April 2017 Katy Kafe with Roger Taylor!

It’s about the money, honey! Those darn ticket prices

Lately, the blog has been void of truly controversial topics.  I have stuck to basics, like commemorating days in history and that sort of thing. The writing has been easy, and I’ve enjoyed not having my inbox/comments flooded with inflammatory and argumentative replies. I don’t miss that sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach,… Continue reading It’s about the money, honey! Those darn ticket prices
