(Well, tomorrow really...) One of my first Duran Duran shows at the Venue in Victoria, London. 13 year old schoolkid, I sneaked in with my best friend Dave and watched the show. It was 'round the corner from our school. I don't recall too much of the show except that we wrapped our school ties around our heads and kept looking at all the girls, keeping one eye on security, hoping we wouldn't get thrown out....then sneaking back into Dave's house, hoping that his Mum (worse than any security guard) wouldn't wake up and hear us.

Slightly off topic (?!) but 12 years ago today (December 10th 1998) I went to see Duran Duran play live @ the BIC in Bournemouth, UK on their Greatest & Latest tour. I got chatting to a girl (as you do!) who was a massive Duran fan like myself. Now, exactly 12 years on from that date it made me think. That girl and me have now been married for 8 years and have 3 great children!! Strange world isn't it?!

Let's see here. 2 pounds for a Duran Duran concert. 2 pounds in 1980 is about equal to $9.00 USD today. ... Any Americans wanna build a time machine? *raises hand* As long as I can stay the same age I am today....
