Organisers Slammed For 'Duran Duran' Olympics Booking - Comments and Message Board

Why shouldn't Duran Duran represent England at the Olympics? This band is one of the most successful groups to have come out of this country, they have won numerous awards for their music and iconic videos, and toured all over the world to sell-out shows. While Duran Duran are constantly keeping their music fresh and relevant, it seems that their critics are stuck in the past by trotting out the usual sarcastic comments whenever this band are in the media. Duran Duran have always had to put up with this kind of backlash since the beginning, but they're still going strong. They are a real band, who write and play real music, and can rock with the best of them, so their success just proves how much of this criticism is unfounded. I rest my case.

That's what the next line says. "One key problem with that booking came when the organisers discovered Moon had died in 1978 after swallowing 32 clomethiazole tablets."
