| Hey Hey all, it has been awhile since I have done any house cleaning here but it is now the time for a freshing up!!!! As of this day, 2 July 2002, Duran Duran, in its original glory, is working hard on a NEW album and hopefully some tour dates for all of us loyal and patient fans....WAY TO GO GUYS!!!! You can go to Duranduran.com, the official page for the latest news and there is a link to it right on the left side of this page, if you hadn't noticed...hee-hee. Just a note to Nick fans...The Devils project with Nick and Stephen Duffy is on its way into home and hearts of all Duranies soon. From the Video stills I saw, it looks very promising indeed, I believe 15 July 2002. Keep the flame burning!!! Pictures of the band as it stands are not far and few but there are not that many new ones to offer so I will let the Duran masters take the reigns for any new snapshots of the band, you know the places to hang out. :) This months review is for Duran Duran's Manchester '89 live performance- any one who is a fan of the Big Thing album like myself will find this disc a treat if they don't already have it. It is probably the high point of the Electric Theatre Tour. Awesome sound recording and very energetic. Simon even says " it feels like we're just warming up now". Songs like Palomino, Big Thing, I Don't Want Your Love just shine. A really great version of A View To A Kill kicks ass as do the bands form on previous material such as Save A Prayer, Notorious, Skin Trade and other classics from the Fabulous Nite Romantics!!!!! This album is a definate "MUST HAVE" for any good loyal Duranie. That is it for this month. See ya soon... and always remember to keep the SKIN TRADE alive!!! ME |
