I’ve got two tickets to see Duran Duran in Central Park on May 31. I can’t use them. You blog roll bitches should use the comments to tell me how much you like Duran Duran and why. The person who writes the comment that pleases/amuses/moves me most gets the tickets for free.* You have 24 hours. And you have to be local because I don’t want to give them to someone who can’t go. If I pick you and your mailing address is not in the area, you’re disqualified! If you’re a lurker who has never commented on my blog before, I might consider you if you write something amazing but the peeps who show me love all the time have an edge.
*This will be totally subjective and unfair. Tough!
I had this picture on my wall back in the day
UPDATED TO ADD: Woot! I’m going to see Madonna in October. No one is getting those tickets. Sorry!

Dear Wendy,
It’s a shame you can’t go. Why?!
I saw them the second time last month (the first time was about 10 years ago) and they definitely still have it! How many bands today can casually say, “Get yer tops off, ladies”, or something to that effect, and have female members of the audience willingly comply?…Simon Lebon is a charismatic cheeky evil devil.
I won’t be joining the raffle (in the wrong postcode and country) but I hope the winners – they’d better be huge Duran Duran fans – will have a fab time at what I think will be a superb show, singing/shouting along and screaming themselves hoarse, tops on or off. x

I love that when Duran Duran wanted to shake things up, they let male groupies perform the lewd acts normally the domain of the female groupie!
Sky rocketing petrol prices have grounded the Gulfstream so such frivolity is no longer within my means. I could them at the V festival and they roooocked!

Its too bad I’ll be going home the day before! *pout*
Last time I saw them was my senior year of college and this was right when they were making their “comeback”, so they were playing in some field in Tampa (or St. Augusting, hell, I can’t remember). And they had the Cranberries as an opening act.
Holy Crap! I feel old now.
Luv
Poochie

oh I wish I could go, but I live in a different country so there’s no point in asking for them! lol!
BTW, would you like to do a link exchange with me?

I’d like those tickets. Some people I know from the East Coast are coming to visit, and I need an excuse to get out of town.
WendyB says
^^Wiseacre! I guess there are no Duran-loving New Yorkers so the tickets will go unclaimed! Alas. I did enjoy reading the comments of out-of-town fans though.
evie says
what a pity indeed because i came to the comments section just to see who would get them!

I still dress and style my hair like those guys.

WAIT a second! No one wants these tix? I’ll take ’em and party like it’s 1985!! My last encounter with DD was at the Today Show a few years ago. I got up early to rock out before work and it was awesome! Love to see the boys again…
