Duran Duran play at Cannes
Duran Duran have played at a special party in Cannes in support of the (RED) organisation.
The band took time out from touring and promoting their latest album, All You Need Is Now, to rock on stage at a party partly sponsored by the organisation to bring awareness to the HIV/Aids epidemic.
"We feel that we help out wherever we can," lead singer Simon LeBon said. "The (RED) organisation is a very fine organisation indeed ... It seemed like a good thing for us to do."
The party was held at the exclusive VIP room and was hosted by Belvedere and (RED), which have teamed up and created a special edition bottle aimed at raising money to help fight HIV and Aids.
Duran Duran has an emotional attachment to Cannes as one of their earlier records was made in the region.
"When we came to record our third album, we rented a big chateau just outside of Cannes in the mountains and spent all of our time writing, recording and coming down here to party in the evening, so great memories, really great memories of this town," said drummer Roger Taylor.
