Duran Duran Frenzy Hits Malta
Simon Le Bon, Red Carpet Massacre Tour, Malta.
I often say that the best plan is not to plan. And true to form, last night I had very little in the way of plans. Yet all it took was a few calls and before I knew it, I found myself being whisked off to the Duran Duran concert with VIP tickets and backstage passes in hand. In fact, this legendary band (self-described as ‘the Sex Pistols meets Chic’) was performing at the Luxol Grounds, their final stop in their Red Carpet Massacre European Tour.
Over 9,000 enthusiastic fans filled the outdoor venue, and the warm evening air was electric with anticipation. By 9:30, the pop rock band made its appearance on stage, unleashing screams of excitement from the crowd. The band (minus Andy Taylor) had Simon Le Bon, John Taylor, Nick Rhodes and Roger Taylor whip up a frenzy, performing legendary hits from their 30-year music career as well as more recent songs from their latest album.
From backstage, I managed to catch an exclusive glimpse of John, Dom and Roger as they warmed up with an impromptu jam session which was as impressive as their concert…
