Duran Duran to play The Point

The '80s pop revival gathers apace with Duran Duran announcing an April 8 visit to Dublin's Point Theatre.

Having been MIA for the past decade, Birmingham's finest reunited for a pre-Christmas UK tour which sold-out in record time.

The reviews were almost unanimously positive with such mega-hits as 'Girls On Film', 'Hungry Like The Wolf', 'Rio' and 'Union Of The Snake' sounding as fresh as the day they left the factory.

While yet to be confirmed for Ireland, cross-channel support duties are being taken care off by Goldfrapp.
