“Hi London… Do you reckon it’s time for Bond?”
- SIMON LE BON
This bullet catcher has always had a fave Bond anthem. And a wish-list must to dance into Duran Duran’s flames and witness their fatal 007 kiss at least once in my lifetime.
As crystal tears could well have fallen, and fatal sounds of broken dreams were never experienced live, suddenly BST HYDE PARK created an eleventh-hour phoenix from the flames moment when Duran Duran headlined on Sunday July 5th in London’s famed park! Duran Duran are a stunning band live. A Friday in Glastonbury needs to give them some serious thought immediately.
With a two hour set and no guarantee that ‘A View to a Kill’ will make the cut, suddenly – and with zero camera notice, hence the ‘hand-held reportage’ – Simon Le Bon and his BOND ’85 agents launched Roger Moore’s 1980s anthem as their second number. It brought the park down and left one happy bullet catcher frozen with Bond musical joy.
Duran Duran are very important to Bond, Queer Bond – The Fabulous Other History of a Spy. It was an extra special touch when Le Bon gave a heartfelt shout out to their LGBTQ fans and audiences. Thank you guys!
