I'm sorta ashamed to admit it, but I saw them on that tour. When I first discovered Duran Duran, around 1981or 82... I guess, they still had sort of an underground, undiscovered, not yet in the mainstream image with 'Planet Earth' and 'Girls On Film' and all that. Next thing you know these guys are being touted as the 'New Beatles' because all the young chicks were going ape-shit over them. So I guess when I saw them i was making up for lost time, even though at that time they had become....oh what would be the saying...um, a 'p*ssy band'...excuse my French. So much for the New Romantic underground image, eh? [ Edited by: donhonyc on 2004-11-07 00:52 ]
