The stats on Duran Duran are remarkable: a total of more than 100 million records sold, 18 American hit singles, 30 UK top 20 tunes, and a global presence which guarantees them huge concert audiences on five continents. They are timeless, defying the odds by outlasting their contemporaries and never losing the desire to innovate. Their approach—a fusion of art, fashion, technology, and pop—has always been far ahead of its time, and the band shows no signs of easing its foot off the pedal, as they're currently hard at work on their 14th studio album, with star producers Mark Ronson, Mr. Hudson and Nile Rodgers.

There is no way these are selling, right? Duran Duran is a legendary band and everything, but are they really revered enough to justify those prices? Maybe I'm just out of touch with Duran Duran's place in music history.
tears for fears is playing at the austin music hall next week for like $45. if you need your 80's fix they were the better band and you can see them for 1/6th the price. i think duran duran is out of touch with duran durans place in music history. id sooner pay $300 to see grace jones. <iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/yvLn_qC7QAs" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
People pay $500/night for *crappy* hotel rooms that weekend. It's nuts. If I lived in Austin I would become an Uber driver just for that weekend.
So, according to those prices.... In Duran Duran's mind, they were even bigger than jesus than The Beatles ever were ...
they are jacking up the prices because of F1 weekend. I wanted to see Sting last time, but Sting was EVEN MORE EXPENSIVE and it was SOLD OUT. http://www.austinchronicle.com/phot...zes-a-sold-out-acl-live-at-the-moody-theater/ Though ticket prices ranged from $250 to $750, the former Police man packed the Moody Theater Saturday night, 11.16.13.
I saw The Bravery open for Duran Duran back in 2005 for around $50 for floor level seats on row 1. What ever happened to The Bravery?
