The band performed to a sell out crowd.
Scissor Sister Jake Shears promised fans Duran Duran would deliver a ‘f**king spectacular’ show and he wasn’t wrong.
After an intro video, paying a very knowing nod to classic 80s cult film Blade Runner, Duran Duran took to the stage with their perfectly lit silhouettes looking down upon those in the stalls. An incredibly excited woman nearby screamed ‘I’ve dreamt of him all my life’ as Smash Hits heartthrob Simon Le Bon walked to the centre of the Leeds First Direct Arena stage.
Throughout the gig there were many winks to the decade where the band cemented their stardom. During the performance, old Smash Hits magazine covers, featuring the band, would flash on the big screens alongside other famous faces from the period.
