I saw Duran Duran when they supported Hazel O'Connor at Sheffield Poly Students' Union in 1980/1 (I think). They were very heavy, with the guitar turned right up. I seem to remember that the songs were played a bit slower than on record. Highlight was a song called "Friends of Mine", which is still my favourite Duran ditty. Chrous goes "Georgie Davis is coming out / no more heros we twist & shout". Lurvv it. Hazel O'Connor was shit, by the way - I've seen her twice, and each time she was a pretentious twerp. Didn't even stay 'till the end. Despite that, I still like "Stay Now", however. AND I saw the first ever concert of B A D, even before they had a name !

I'm here at Disney Online in Sunny, sunny hot southern California having a nice brew of Newcastle and feeling rather good. You know, because of all this talk about that song 'Jungle Line', at lunch I went home and put the video tape of TD that I have that has that song on it. Have you folks also heard the song 'Puppet Theatre'????? A very good song. I like the beginning the best. I don't have a tape player in my car, so I get to listen to the "wonderful" radio.
