The kings of ’80s new wave pop are headed to Queens.
On Friday, Sept. 22, Duran Duran is headlining at Forest Hills’ Forest Hills Stadium for a night of singalong hits, late 20th century nostalgia and good times as part of their ongoing ‘Future Past Tour.’
And if you want to scoop up last-minute tickets to see Simon, Nick, John and Roger do their live, now is the time.
At the time of publication, prices start at $83 before fees on Vivid Seats.
Not a bad price to hear “Hungry Like The Wolf,” “Rio,” “The Reflex,” “Ordinary World,” “Girls On Film” and so many more timeless classics performed by Rock and Roll Hall of Famers live.
When you factor in that they’ll be joined by special guests Grace Jones, Nile Rodgers with Chic and Bastille at the concert, it’s a downright steal.
