Today in Duran History – Gloucester

On today’s date in good old 1982, Duran Duran played the Leisure Center in Gloucester.  This show was part of the Rio tour.

Hard to believe we’re here looking back on a date that took place 32 years ago. It’s almost impossible given than I’m barely 30, right???

Listen, some believe that John Taylor is going to marry them.  Others believe Simon is coming for them.  Me?  I’m just barely 30.  Happy Monday!!

While I’m at it, I just want to thank everyone for their patience this past couple weeks as we set up this site to be “self-hosted”.  For our readers, this means nothing. For me, it has meant changing quite a few things, learning a TON of things that I had zero interest in learning even a year ago (you just cannot even IMAGINE the cursing and vulgarity that has taken place here in the past 10 days…) and it also means quite a bit more work behind the scenes this week.  Some of it you may notice, and much of it will never be seen by anyone but Amanda and I. For example: I know the daily polling needs to be fixed, our colors are slightly off, the website header is blurry…and about 5000 other things have to be tweaked so they work better.  While I get to work making all of it happen, I just wanted to pass on our thanks for not deserting us!
