Duran Duran Toronto Phoenix Concert Theatre April 25, 2011
















Picture courtesy of the guy from Dragon's Den. Note the camera angle, he obviously got to sit somewhere where people usually don't get to sit at the Phoenix.

Sold out show at the Phoenix Concert Theatre for New Wave eighties boy band Duran Duran and this is what they said before the show even started:

@SexTRex: Duran Duran is across the street from my house right now

@libbyricci: Duran Duran at the Phoenix 30 years later!!

@ThatEricAlper: At Duran Duran show in Toronto. So, this is what we all look like now we've all growned up, huh?

@brucepoontip: What the hell @SimonJCLeBON The audience is waiting! Get your ass out here and earn your pound of flesh! Duran Duran in Toronto!

@JaneCStevenson: What year is it? I'm at phoenix waiting for duran duran to go on!

@Deddster: Observation from the crowd at Duran Duran...Old people, I feel safe.
