Totally! I’ve long been frustrated by this false portrayal of them as throw away bubble gum pop suited only for screaming 12 year old girls, not proper musicians, etc.by the music press for years!! Its taken a long long time for music writing influencers (in general) to start to come around having been proven wrong. Their longevity speaks for itself. I just regret that some people don’t ever get to experience the breadth, depth, strength, and ultimately joy of their full catalog. So many amazing impossibly great songs with all kinds of emotional tone that hit you hard if given the chance.

@@nocturnalmix I also think the younger journalists don't have the 'cultural baggage' of the ones who were Duran's original contemporaries, and they're more able to hear the music for what it is. I've always thought that if Duran had been less overt about wanted to be BIG the music press would have treated them very differently. And of course, if they'd been less good-looking and overtly happy

I’ve listen to them since I was a child, over 20 years ago. Even their new music is incredible. Simon is a true entertainer and the band is a great follow up. They played classic music, the hits, a song from Arcadia, and some brand new music. Then ended with the greatest hits. It was incredible and I wish I could see them again

At the beginning of this Simon talked of playing all of a new album to an audience and how it wouldn't satisfy an audience. That being said, playing pretty much the same set tour after tour like Duran do is also not good and frankly can get boring. My opinion is Duran Duran should sprinkle new and album cuts throughout the set in between the heard them a million times hits. That way they will satisfy EVERYONE and bore no one.
