John Taylor from Duran Duran is in Los Angeles tonight.  He is signing his new book, “In The Pleasure Groove” and I’m not going.  It’s not that I couldn’t get a ticket (I could have) or have other commitments. I just don’t want to go.

I LOVE Duran Duran.  I mean A LOT!  I’ve been a very long time fan and have been known to some of my oldest friends as “the one who used to cry and scream” when Duran videos were on TV.  I’ve gone to numerous concerts (even by myself) and I’m a paying member of the fan club but I’m still not going tonight.

While I have the utmost respect for the bass man extraordinaire, follow him on Twitter (@thisistherealJT), and will likely buy his book, the bottom line is that John is not my fantasy husband, Simon Le Bon.  Unlike many of the Duran Duran fans when I was younger, my screams were for Simon but not John.

Scream worthy Simon Le Bon

I feel like a bad Duran Duran fan.   […]
