“Duran Duran -- I remember the first night I was truly cognizant of the individual band members. It was the first Friday of December, 1984. My BFF Pam and I suffered the same affliction of not having cable TV and had to get our music video fix via NBC's "Friday Night Videos." I'd seen Duran Duran videos and knew their songs, but just wasn't all that into them. The video for "Do They Know It's Christmas" came on and I was like, "Pam, who is this hot guy with the long blonde hair???" "Oh, that's Simon LeBon. He's the lead singer of Duran Duran." Hmmm... "I guess that guy with the red and black shirt that says 'Duran Duran' on it is in the band, too, huh?" "Yeah, that's John Taylor. Like EVERYONE thinks he's hot." (And I remember thinking, "He's okay, I guess," LOL!) "Hey, Pam! Who's this guy back here? Shoot, I keep missing him! They just barely show him, with the amazing make-up and the gorgeous eyes???" "Oh, that's Nick Rhodes. He's in Duran Duran, too. I think he plays keyboards." Hmmm... The next video up? "Wild Boys" by Duran Duran! Just a few moments earlier, during "DTKIC," I had picked out these three men who would fill my dreams, diaries, and Duran-induced imagination for years and years to come, three talented musicians whose band's music would, from that night forward change my life forever and whose music would literally save my life more than once.”

Don't Crush Panic: Duran Duran Announce Second Leg Of U.S. Tour Dates

Brett Warner
03/31/2012
'80s Music

Didn't get a chance to see "The Man Who Stole A Leopard" on stage last fall? I've got some news that should make you cherry ice cream smile—Duran Duran have announced a second leg of U.S. tour dates in support of their Mark Ronson-produced return to stylistic form, All You Need Is Now. The band just wrapped up a string of dates of Australia and will be jetting around South America this summer, but you'll be able so spot the Fab Five (minus one) stateside starting August 8.

Check out my review of their recent gig at Cleveland, Ohio's State Theatre and then peep the August U.S. dates below:

Aug. 8 - Saratoga, CA (Venue TBA)
Aug. 9 - Saratoga, CA (Venue TBA)
Aug. 12 - Tuscon, AZ (Venue TBA)
Aug. 15 - Catoosa, OK (Venue TBA)
Aug. 17 - Memphis, TN (Memphis Botanical Gardens)
Aug. 18 - Biloxi, MS (Hard Rock Hotel & Casino)
Aug. 19 - Atlanta, GA (Venue TBA)
Aug. 21 - Durham, NC (Durham Performing Arts Center)
Aug. 24 - Mashantucket, CT (Venue TBA)
Aug. 25 - Atlantic City, NJ (Venue TBA)
Aug. 28 - Kettering, OH (Venue TBA)
Aug. 29 - Highland Park, IL (Ravina)

(via Consequence of Sound)

It's great to see the boys playing so many shows this time around—seriously, if you're a fan of their classic songs (think pre-Seven and the Ragged Tiger), do your self a major favor and check out All You Need Is Now. (Spotify users can and should listen right here.) Not only do the new songs fit perfectly alongside "Girls On Film", "Rio" and "Hungry Like The Wolf," some of them got an even bigger crowd reaction than the old hits when I saw them last. True story.

Any else catch Duran Duran on tour this past year? Planning to see them in August? Let us know in the comments section below and, if you haven't already, connect with other Duran maniacs on our exclusive DuranOlogy.
