I certainly doubt there will be any more album tours, and I don't think we really need any.
I completely agree with you Alex. I do however hope that they keep the interview CDs coming!

I liked them! I might have a spare one I can send you, as I grabbed a couple.

They had all the recent album covers on - COIII, Electrofear, From Trash, TCM, Sideways and LFAR I think. Good bit of advertising.
Cheers Alex!

I agree with others that there may be 'The Garden' tour at some time, even if after a regular tour. I also think there could be more live albums to come. As it would not make sense to release 'Retro Future' from '98 and then not release any from the great shows John and Louis do lately.

As for more interview cds, i dont mind them too much, but for me part of the 'quite man' image is that John lets the music speak instead.

It is possible that John would not want it any other way! It seems to make Sideways more special somehow. wink [/b]
Now that is an EXCELLENT point and very pertinent observation, Mr Puddle. It does indeed add to the element of 'mystery' surrounding what will come to be regarded a s a masterpp=iece...

I agree too, as it confirms my post above about not wanting too many interview cds. The less said about 'Sideways' the better its mystery, and obviously the same goes for early albums that John has said little about til lately.

It continues......
Duran Duran will be on Broadway for 2 weeks. They will be playing the entire Red Carpet Massacre album (their latest) plus the hits.

Yes I heard something about that. Duran Duran will probably be the first to play an album gig of a latest album. Or are they??

I thought Bowie did it with "Heathen" in 2002... (playing Heathen and Low back to back)

Are you all talking about just performing a new album, or releasing an album of the concert? I'm not being deliberately dim, the thread and responses have just been a little confusing, that's all.
