Duran Duran
As tempting as it is to dismiss Duran Duran as a retro act that continues to capitalize on the nostalgia (and disposable income) of ’80s kids, the fact is the ever-stylish British pop band still moves millions of units every time it puts out an album. Evidently, there will be plenty of folks just dying to hear the new stuff when Duran Duran plays G.M. Place on Tuesday (April 29). Not us, though. Unless you’re talking about a porno starring Lindsay Lohan, we’re not interested in sitting through offerings from Red Carpet Massacre. The only songs we give a tinker’s twat about are “Rio” and “Hungry Like the Wolf”, so we’ll be timing our arrival to coincide with the inevitable encores.
