DD Day -- Nov 12th

I saw Duran Duran yesterday, not on Broadway as I had planned, but at the Roseland Ballroom. The show was fabulous...three acts of great madness. The boys first played the new album in its entirety. As we already know the first three singles rock (Nite Runner, Skin Divers, & Falling Down) but the song Box Full O'Honey must be skipped and never listened to, ever. You will thank me. Dancing all night long with no complaints from any random strangers was a relief. No fighting necessary Lyn. Following a brief intermission my boys came out for a techno set (probably my favorite) with such fantastic versions of I Don't Want Your Love and All She Wants Is and the best cover of "Warm Leatherette" I've ever heard.

Nothing but the best was left for the end of the night; The Reflex, Notorious, Planet Earth shattered all previous live versions I've heard before.

Simon sadly moves like a lame old man on stage; Elvis-style karate kicks and strange hip action, but how can you not love a man who looks so good.
And don't worry about me...they did end the night with Girls on Film.

No matter how hard you try, you'll never be as good as me.

I'm starting to work on my favorite songs of 2007. Now's the time to share any titles you think I should consider before I finalize my picks.

So in doing homework for Dance Fabulous I've been checking out some choreography clips on YouTube.com. Can't wait until we can start doing stuff like this again! Here are my favorites:
