John's IMMORTAL
John, I am thrilled that Duran Duran is back together. Anyway, I
really do enjoy your solo music and lately can't get enough
of 'Retreat Into Art' - an amazing CD. I love `Immortal', it's my
favorite of all your solo work. Do you miss playing your own music?
And is there any chance that down the line, Duran Duran may do what
groups like New Edition have done where the members branched off to
do solo work. Let each member perform a few of their own songs and
then perform as a whole. Would love to hear some solo JT and AT
stuff on the road. Love and thanks for the music, Tarcia

"I doubt very much if DD will ever perform a show like that, we are
competitive enough with each other as it is! I don't honestly know
if I will ever get back to singing or writing for myself again, I'm
so focused on the new DD songs, I don't even want to think about it.
The solo stuff I did do was very important for me however, it helped
me back to DD with a renewed sense of purpose, particularly when it
comes to just 'playing the f**king bass, John..' But I'm glad you
are enjoying the music, 'Immortal' is one of the best, I think.
Love, John"

It's probably a good thing they dont' do shows like that. I'd hate to lose Roger and Andy again!

I have to say I wouldnt mind an on stage Arcadia reunion! How sweet would that be?

[Simons Arena]

I SURE wouldn't mind an Arcadia show! But if I remember correctly the main reason they didn't do a tour was because the songs were so over-mixed. It wouldn't sound the same in concert. But it'd be nice.

I downloaded a song they performed back in the 80s - prob when Andy and Roger had left - called Maximum Big Surprise. Its a mix of Some Like It Hot and Election Day which sounds quite good. I dunno how many times they actually performed it and they probably won't perform it again.

I just thought I'd mention it cos I think if they do perform side project songs, it would be better if they performed something like that.

But, indeed, we do not want anyone leaving now!!
