... OMG, f**king brilliant!! Not been to a concert that good in years - absolutely fantastic!

We were standing and were really near teh front so had fab, fab view and they belted out all the old songs - highlights being The Reflex, Rio, Girls on Film, Save a Prayer and , at the end, Wild Boys.

So on a high!!!!

And did we all have trendy wedge haircuts and couldnt see very well out of one eye-I certainly did!

Lucky lucky you!

JT is gorgeous too.. he's aged a bit worse than SLB thought, due to his drug ravaged days.. but he still IS very gorgeous.

Met him outside his house once, and I have to say he had the most beautiful skin... and face.

Mistletoo · 20/12/2005 22:51

JT is gorgeous - I like the sound of that

Glitterygook · 21/12/2005 13:38

JT looked crap compared to SLB.

Duranfan - SLB DOES throw himself into the crowd and, wait for it, gets a girl up on stage!!!! Get to the front woman!!

Report back tomorrow

John Taylor couldn't have possibly looked crap!!

Glitterygook · 21/12/2005 14:06

Hmm, he's good looking I suppose but not sexy. SLB is less typically good looking but he was sexy on stage I thought. NEver thought so before.

He will always be sexy to me!!
Very that you saw them live. I was their greatest fan!

Misspiggy · 21/12/2005 20:07

GG - who were the support band? Were they any good? When we saw Duran last year Scissor Sisters supported them and were great.

Duranfan · 22/12/2005 17:22

They were bloody fantastic. SLB looked drop dead gorgeous... wearing the tightest jeans and going commando (I'm sure!).. Phwooooooarrrr!!!!

JT looked gorgeous as well.. the only man (apart from SLB, goes without saying) who can get away with leather trousers... !!

Screamed all the way through it. They definitely have not lost it... in fact, they are better than in the 80's. The set was great, the affects were great and they were on top form (it didn't even matter than SLB forgot the words on a few songs... bless him!).

GG... he threw himself to the left of us. Was about to launch myself in the air to get to him, but realised it was just too far away (bloody typical!)... but then when you have met the man and kissed him.. a quick grope doesn't come close anyway!!!!

Am considering stalking him again like I did when I was in my teens!!!!

SIMON YOU STILL GOT IT!!!!!!!

Duranfan · 22/12/2005 17:23

MP - support band were Olsen... quite good actually.. !! The other dates were Mylo.

Gutted I missed the Scissor Sisters last time... Goldfrapp were complete crap !!!

kitegirl · 22/12/2005 22:00

I saw them last year in Wembley, they were awesome!!! if a bit old and fat though - Simon tried to do this rockstar jump on the stage but couldn't quite manage, being a bit porky... but it took me right back to being 14 and lusting after John Taylor. I wrote to him and he never replied, the bastard. back in 1984 I hasten to add. I kind of like some of their new stuff . And the concert started and ended on time and was not too late. I've lost it really haven't I. it's Westlife next.

Duranfan · 23/12/2005 00:10

Being a bit porky...Kitegirl? You are bloody joking!?? He's probably fitter than most 20 yrs younger than him.

You need glasses love...!!

pineneedle · 23/12/2005 15:37

Went on Weds and Thurs, standing three people back from the stage last night - they've still got it! Simon has got a great sense of humour, and the rest of them are as sexy as hell! Two really good nights out, one big party!

Duranfan · 23/12/2005 19:37

Ah Pineneedle.. you don't need glasses..!! They are bloody brilliant aren't they.. so much more than just a concert. Simon makes me laugh and smile all the way through it. Love the interaction between him and JT as well...

Oh God, I must stop...

Glitterygook · 23/12/2005 19:51

Porky? Er, NO!

Misspiggy · 23/12/2005 20:17

I went last night with my friend and loved it! We said exactly the same DF that Simon looks scrummier these days than he did back in the 80s and his voice seems stronger as well. Wasn't too sure about John Taylor's ankle swinger trousers with those red socks though!

Duranfan · 24/12/2005 11:12

Oh yes MP... he does look better now... always did look gorgeous mind you... but he ooozes charisma and sex appeal...!!

The amount of people I've spoken to at a concert who have said "I never fancied him before, but WOW"....

JT wore his leathers at ours.. thank goodness by the sounds of it...LOL.
