October 28, 200816 yr Thank you bubbles. That video just won best MTV video of all time. Pretty cool huh!? Thanks again
October 31, 200816 yr October 26th, 2008 For Simon�s 50th birthday, John, Nick and Roger gave him an unusual present. Inside the giant silver DJ box were 50 albums, one released in each of the years since Simon�s birth. The three of them argued long and hard about which choice was appropriate for each year, and of course, many years had several great albums known to be favourites of Simon�s, which made the task even harder. Over a period of several months they gathered the collection from far and wide, and although most were found in the US and the UK, the Cocteau Twins �Blue Bell Knoll� and Kraftwerk�s �Man Machine� were found by Nick and John on a shopping spree in Rimini, Italy! When the gift was finally presented to Simon, he was actually visibly taken aback. The choices ranged from Elvis to Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, from David Bowie to Dr. Dre, but admittedly there is one Duran Duran album - they included �Rio� for the year 1982. Here are some images of the gifting process, which occurred in London at Shoreditch Town Hall, where the band were doing a photo shoot on location at an art exhibit. Thank you whyellebee for these pics and the article.
