I encountered Nick in Los Angeles .... I tell this story with the sadness that I can't look everyone in the eye and tell them what an amazingly beautiful time I had meeting Nick Rhodes. My encounter was extremely brief, but it was like seeing a unicorn. I was in Los Angeles, CA and I was visiting relatives (I'm from Michigan), and I heard that Duran Duran would be at KROQ for an interview. So my cousin and I decided to go. We were in the studio at about 7am, and waited around. There was only one other person there. I was so jazzed. Simon came in first and I thought I would pass out. I had my photo taken with him and got his autograph, etc. But as much as I love Simon, all I could think about is meeting Nick! Then he walked in...wearing a silver suit with black nail polish. He looked absolutely gorgeous. I guess that's all I can say about how he looked...I'm still speechless. He was very gracious for it being now 8am. I got his autograph and left the building forever changed. This tale is perhaps not as spectacular than others, but when you're 17 and you've loved Duran Duran as long as you can remember, every little bit counts. I just hope that those fine men realize what an extreme impact they have on the lives of their fans. :)
