Today in Duran History – Maryland

On today’s date in 2008, Duran Duran played at the  Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, Maryland.  This was during the Red Carpet Massacre tour.

As an aside, I just express my joy for dd.com. I can say that there is rarely a single day that goes by that I don’t need to go to the website for something, whether it’s to check a date, look at the discography, read some news…or in this case, find a set list.  While they don’t have every single tidbit of information, they have a lot…and I know that Amanda and I are among their frequent visitors.

So…what did they play that night in Columbia, Maryland?  I’m so glad you asked!  Here’s the setlist, and you’ll note that this was during the time when they performed the beloved ElectroSet:  (copied from duranduran.com)

Once upon a time, there were two Duran Duran fans. One named Amanda, the other named Rhonda. Over many vodka tonics, they would laugh about the idea of one day writing a book about their fan experiences. While that manuscript is still being composed...Rhonda thought they should write a blog. (What was she THINKING?!) Lo and behold: The Daily Duranie was born.
