Duran Duran does bring back the memories, too, as they played every song of theirs I've ever heard. Well, they didn't play the theme to the last Roger Moore James Bond film, but I didn't really expect them to. I didn't realize I knew so many of their songs, actually. Here are the ones I recognized from the set.
- (Reach Up For The) Sunrise
- Hungry Like The Wolf
- Notorious
- The Wild Boys
- The Reflex
- Save A Prayer (for the morning after)
- Girls on Film
- Rio
They also played a nice instrumental number to give Simon a break and a song called "What Happens Tomorrow" about the war in Iraq. I thought it was really nice.
After the concert I headed back to the metro. Public transit in the US will probably never be as good as it is in Europe, but I'm getting ahead of myself. On the way there, I almost tripped on something on the ground. I turned around and looked at it. "What is that? A koosh ball? It's pretty large for... Woah! It's a hedgehog!" I'd never seen a hedgehog just wandering the streets before. It was a cute little bugger. It started moving and I kind of herded it back towards a grassy area. That was cool.
What was less cool was the drunkard who tried to take a bed in our room at three AM. Oh well. Hostel life. I'll be better about locking up in the future. Today it's time to get my walk on again. There's a huge park, and if I don't see anything else today but its insides, I'll be happy.
