DURANNIES IN BIG DEMAND!

Demand forces the 80s pop legends to put on extra shows...

Duran Duran have added extra dates to their UK comeback tour.

The arena dates in April will be the first time that the original line-up have toured their home country in 18 years.

Although the band have played in America since regrouping two years ago, a surprise show at London Forum in October marked their first UK appearance.

The group have now announced second nights at London Wembley Arena (April 14) and Birmingham NEC (April 18) due to demand.

The revised dates now run:

London Wembley Arena (April 13/14)
Glasgow SECC (15)
Manchester Evening News Arena (17)
Birmingham NEC (18/19)
