Duran Duran Light Up Bang! Festival
A beautiful night set the stage for headliner Duran Duran at the Bang! Music Festival in Miami's Bicentennial Park on Saturday. The veteran rockers kick-started their set with a rousing version of "Hungry Like the Wolf." Singer Simon Le Bon paraded around the stage as the band poured out hit after hit. Songs like "Planet Earth," "The Reflex," "Wild Boys" and "Notorious" had the audience singing along and dancing to every note. Le Bon and founding bandmates John Taylor, Roger Taylor and Nick Rhodes were joined onstage by guitarist Dom Brown, who admirably filled in for the recently ousted Andy Taylor. The group finished with a two-punch encore of "Girls on Film" and "Rio." Earlier, Gnarls Barkley warmed up the crowd with a set highlighted by their mega-hit "Crazy." The all-day Bang! gathering also featured a bevy of other pop groups, Latin rock acts and internationally renowned DJs.

Bang!
The festival ended with veteran New Wave rockers, Duran Duran. They have made a come back and the timing could not have been any better. The new wave style of music that they embody has been recently resurrected in the indie rock scene gathering renewed fervor as part of the whole post-punk revival phenomenon. These veterans saw this was their chance to cash in on their legacy.
But it certainly is not an ill-conceived jump back into the spotlight. They hit the stage with gusto with their most famous song Hungry Like The Wolf. There was determination in their demeanor, confidently and furiously kicking off the dust from all these years in hibernation. Things had come full circle. They were crisp and sharp and besides the pouchy look of lead singer, Simon Le Bon, they didn't look or sound the worse for wear. Le Bon's voice was as sweet, and melodious as ever and the band's energy was kinetic. A superb performance enjoyed by all, Duran Duran made it clear they are back for the next wave.
