Duran Duran Tour Dates & Upcoming Concerts

It. Was. Amazing! Where to even start? First was Nile Rodgers and Chic and I cannot express how much of an energetic and quality show that was! Their part had so much energy to it that I feared to run out steam for the rest of the concert. It’s incredible the talent Rodgers has and his influence in the music industry. Then came Bastille which I wasn’t too familiar with but had a great time when they were on stage. Knew a lot more of their songs than I thought and they were an incredible live performance. Then came the boys! They are truly at their best. I saw them in National Harbor in 2017 and while they were great as always then, last night they were a hundred times better. The energy. The performance. The playlist. The tech on the show. The audience interaction. I’ve never seen palpitating so much positive energy! LeBon is always a showman and of course the rest of the band is at their prime. I can honestly say it was one of the best nights and shows of my life.

I had a blast seeing Duran Duran! I have to mention my disappointment though at the seat prices. I went online when the event went on sale and sadly knew I wouldn’t be going. $750 to $1,000 + a ticket. Most of these all became resale tickets of course and the priced went up. I continued to check every day anyway up until the day before the show. The venue released single seats along the side of the theatre and I didn’t have to pay too many extra fees and ended up closer to the stages. For some reason I feel like a lot of guests attending were there because they were comped from gambling. It didn’t seem like everyone there was familiar with the songs. I was really hoping to hear more songs from their new album, but they only played a few.. Because I’m a fan, I have heard the popular Duran songs over and over for the last 40 years. I still had a really great time though, and I am happy that I attended.

Nile Rodgers / Chic were GOOD ... the mix/sound was perfect for them 👍🏽 HORRIBLE and inconsistent mix/sound ruined most of Duran Duran's set. The only times there was a good mix were songs that featured saxophone - otherwise, either one instrument (guitar, bass, or keys/synth) randomly would be way too loud in the mix and sounded (unintentionally) distorted. In addition, the general overall sound level/volume was way to high/loud - Simon Le Bon's vocals would frequently distort. I frequently attend shows by metal bands, so just being loud was not the issue, it was being loud enough to cause distortion. Also, in my younger years I used to run sound (at much smaller venues) - it's possible that I was just in a "bad spot" and that the mix was perfect elsewhere in the auditorium, but I highly doubt it since the opening act had a perfect mix. This was the worst sounding show I've been to at this venue. Can't fault the performers - Duran Duran played well, just couldn't enjoy it due to bad mix.

Uno de los grupos del pop británico de los 80 que hay que escuchar en vivo para entender esta gran era . Me gustó mucho el show, tocaron todos sus grandes éxitos, y aunque todos nos hacemos mayores , no me defraudaron: en su línea, con esos vídeos coloridos y ochenteros, lo que son. Me alegro que por fin penséis en esos “jóvenes” que crecieron con esta música británica. Ojalá traigáis a Depeche Mode, The Cure, The Pet Shop Boys, y algún otro grupo que se reúna: Spandau Ballet, Ultravox,, Tears for Fears, A-Ha, The Human League, OMD, Talk Talk, Erasure , Yazoo, y seguro que olvido a alguien más . Buena acústica, en el Movistar Arena se puede ir a escuchar música, y en un futuro y para vuestra consideración también en Vistalegre. Fui al concierto de OneRepublic y estuvo increíble. Imagine Dragons, Teddy Swims, Benson Boone , Sia y Chappell Roan, y, por supuesto Miley (Miley Cyrus) serían algunas de las otras muchas sugerencias que ahí os dejo.

Duran Duran were brilliant. I've never been a huge fan however, their performance was in point - they're pure entertainers. The musicianship was great too. Would definitely see them again. However, I've not given 5 stars due to the venue which which impacted my overall experience and memory of the night. On a rainy day security were quite heavy handed in trying to confiscate my friend's mini umbrella. My Smints were even taken away which is absolutely ridiculous! It didn't bother me too much, but it felt like they were making a point of taking away little comforts from people who'd paid hard earned money for their tickets. The prohibited objects info was not made clear enough on ticket info or on the Ticketmaster App. Finally the car parking was a nightmare - what seemed to be alack of real planning resulted in a very long wait to get out of the car park of a relatively small venue. I have exited Glastonbury quicker by car, which tells you how bad the planning must've been.
