Duran Duran are an English new wave and synth-pop band formed in Birmingham in 1978. The band grew from alternative sensations in 1982 to mainstream pop stars by 1984. By the end of the decade, membership and music style changes challenged the band before a resurgence in the early 1990s. The group were a leading band in the MTV-driven "Second British Invasion" of the US. The band achieved 14 singles in the top 10 of the UK Singles Chart and 21 in the Billboard Hot 100, and have sold over 100 million records worldwide.[7]
Oakland and Duran Duran have a solid history.
In the 80's they shot video in the Oakland arena that would hit heavy rotation on early MTV.
Oakland playing host to an over the top 80's pop MTV video shoot.
Massive crowds and in the videos little clips of fans going to the nurse station and police interacting with 80's style fans.
Looking back its pretty funny, you see the casualties of the Duran Duran Pit.
On purpose i'm posting the same song 30 plus years later.
This go round it wasn't as crazy but we captured video for the fans.
