Duran Duran

Postby Gorwell » Sat Dec 10, 2011 3:40 pm

Hi,

Went to the Duran Duran Concert on Thursday 8 December 2011 at the Motorpoint Arena Cardiff.

These were one of THE bands around when I was entering into and during my Teenage Years.

Firstly, amazed at how tall both Simon and (play the f**king Bass John ;) ) John are :o
Being Welsh, I am 5'7" and it was quite surprising to see these "Giants" running around the Stage.

They played mainly new stuff at the start :eusa-think: , sprinkled with a few older songs :clap:
Unsurprisingly, most of the crowd wanted to hear the old stuff and when they started this, the place was absolutely ROCKING :thumbup:

You should have finished with Notorious Lads, you completely had the crowd in seventh heaven :clap: :dance:
Finishing with Wild Boys...mmm :eusa-think:

Anyways, a really good night and all is forgiven for postponing the concert from the Summer.

Some of my colleagues are going to see them on Wednesday at Sheffield. I'm not really a fan of them. Much preferred Wham and Spandau Ballet ( who Hatman seems to be confused with :eusa-think: ).

A couple of their records I find ok now but could never really stand Simon "Le Blob" :eusa-whistle:

Going to see Simple Minds in February in Paradiso in Amsterdam. They're doing a 5x5 tour, 5 songs from the first 5 albums, before the Don't You crap started :-)
