According to quite a few reports in the press and on various myspace, facebook, bebo and fan sites, today is Duran Duran Appreciation Day. Every year this fact makes us smile. Thank you very much for "our" day.

We don't know many other bands who actually have a National Holiday in their honour, and for this we are very grateful.

For those of you who came to a show, it was great seeing you - and for those of you that didn't (or couldn't), we hope to see you soon!
