The Links section has been cleaned out - many dead links were removed. If you'd like to add a link, send us the info.

Tooting our own horn: the Temple had a little hand in helping VH1 with the 1st episode of True Spin, where they debunk the myths surrounding popular songs. The 1st episode featured Rio.

Photos from the WSTW All-Request Lunch on 10 November here. (Thanks, Joy!)

Since this week we (here in the US) will celebrate Thanksgiving, a holiday of sharing, I thought it appropriate to make this week's Confessional Pic artwork that was shared recently with the Temple. More of this anonymous fan's Nick artwork can be seen on Discord & Rhyme.

GreyOktoberMoon from the DD.com message board had the opportunity to speak with Nick at this weekend's concert in Atlanta. She reports that Nick would like to release a 20th anniversary DVD of Arcadia complete with a missing track that never made it on the original album. Read her report here.

Do you have an "I Met Nick!" story or pictures you'd like to share? We'd love to include it! Read our previous reports here (including a new one from Hannah!).

Some new articles have been added to the Article Archive.

Duran are scheduled to receive the Outstanding Contribution Award at the Brit Awards to be held 17 February at Earls Court in London. Congratulations!

20 November

So much happening in one week... let's try to catch up!

The Duran Duran Italian Convention will be held 7 December in Pescara, Italy at the Temple Bar Irish Pub. The program will contain: videos of all the Duran's career; exhibitions of records and photos; collector's stands; various gadgets; a concert by the "RIO TRIBUTE BAND" with special guest "BARBARELLAS TRIBUTE BAND"; and 80's tunes will spin after the concerts by EML d.j. The Italian fanzines will be also present for the event. (Thanks, Marco & Piero)

The latest issue of the Friends of Mine Duranzine was released earlier in the week. Email fom@fanzine.freeserve.co.uk for prices and information. (Thanks, Linda & Rupert!)

Some video clips from the gig in Atlantic City can be downloaded from Duran Duran Italy. (Thanks, Giorgio!)

A Nick interview in the Chicago Tribune from last Sunday is here. Registration is free. The print edition featured it in a large color format.

A few links I found while catching up on Duran news: Nick in Atlantic City here; Nick at the China Club here and here; some Meredith pixs are over at NR.info; Nick at the Royal Oak show here; more concert pix here and here (click on Duran Duran - candids).

The next Confessional photo will be posted on Monday.

Some personal notes: I'd like to thank Penelope, Christophe, Catherine, Katia, Pierre, and Franz from the French Duran Yahoo! Group SimonNickJohnetlesautres for all the fun I had while in Paris last week! Especially to Penelope, un grand MERCI for the guided tours for all places Duran. Secondly, (and not Duran related) - would the woman who was translating a letter written in Swedish for me send me an email? Sorry, I've lost your address!

7 November

Meredith pictures from the Love Actually premiere in NYC last night are over at Dear Saint Nick.

Some pictures from Duran's June rehearsals can be found at denis.co.uk.

Rumour has it that Nick's really a vampire - well, for a movie anyway. Got pix?

New solo gig: 9 December in Melbourne at the Metro. Tix went on sale today.

A reminder - the Temple is on holiday next week, the next updates won't be until the week of the 17th.

6 November

Scan of the Q magazine article by Salvo - larger view is here. More readable scans of the article can be found on the DD.com messageboard.

4 November

Duran will be doing a "rehearsal concert" for WPLJ radio at the China Club in NYC this Friday the 7th. You can win tickets to see them at WPLJ or, if you have a membership, you can win a pair from duranduranmusic.com.

There's a Halloween pic of Meredith over at Dear Saint Nick.

3 November

Steve announces the retirement of minDDilation. We're sorry to see it go! Thanks, Steve, for all of your hard work!

The Confessional has added a new gallery - gallery IX. Confess your sins!

For those with saintnick.zzn.com e-mail accounts, ZZN is changing their service and while they will still technically offer free accounts, they will only be free for 30 days when you sign up for one of their paid e-mail services. I believe the current accounts will expire on or around 3 December. The Temple will search around for another free e-mail service to offer to you - however, you may want to make alternate plans in the meantime.

Next week the Temple will be on holiday - the next pic of the week will be posted the week of the 17th. Tour pics may also make an appearance that same week - but in the interim you may also want to visit the LK and DD.com messageboards for the latest pics. (You will probably see the pics that we share with Duran Duran Chile and Simonjohnnicketlesautres on their sites after the 17th as well.)

Mark your calendars: tune in to Wilmington, DE's WSTW 93.7 on Monday 10 November beginning at 11:55 am to hear Nick and the gang host the all-request lunch hour. Click on "Listen Now!" and you should be able to hear it from your computer anywhere in the world...
