“WOULD SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN? The Best of Duran Duran's Ask Katy”
MILLIONS OF FANS WITH HUNDRED OF THOUSANDS OF QUESTIONS AND ONLY ONE PERSON WITH THE ANSWERS... WOULD SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN?
Q: “I noticed on last night’s Set List there was a song called “Encore.” Is that a new song? I’ve never heard it before.”
Q: “If Duran Duran's next video contained a highly choreographed dance number in the same vein as the Backstreet Boys, which one of our boys would have the most trouble?”
Q: “Hey Simon, I was wondering how much money I would have to pay you to record my own personal copy of you singing In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida by Iron Butterfly? Just wondering. OH and thanks for the memories and such.”
There is something timeless about writing a fan letter to your favorite band, as tried and true as any ritual of fandom. Maybe you’d get a form letter back thanking you for your interest or if you were lucky, a signed photo.
With the launch of their official website www.duranduran.com in 1997, Duran Duran – pioneers with infusing music, art, fashion and technology – took the concept one step further. They entrusted an employee to field questions sent via the Internet and pass them along for a direct answer from a band member. Thus ASK KATY was born, and quickly became the most popular portion of the Duran Duran’s website, averaging 15 million hits a month.
10 plus years later, the band brings you the new book “WOULD SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN? The Best of Duran Duran’s Ask Katy”. Culled from thousands of submissions, the book highlights the best, the craziest and the most creative questions the dedicated and devoted fans of Duran Duran have sent in over the years, with thoughtful – and often funny - answers from band members Simon Le Bon, Nick Rhodes, John Taylor and Roger Taylor.
“WOULD SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN? The Best of Duran Duran's Ask Katy” is a delightful bite of pop culture. This collection of fan letters to Duran Duran lets the reader in on the touching, mortifying and laugh-out-loud world of celebrity fan mail.
