Aston Villa and Duran Duran?
« on: March 13, 2017, 10:37:06 PM »
Roger Taylor the drummer is a fan and I've read accounts so is Simon Le Bon. Both the Taylor's wore Villa shirts during their concert at Villa Park in the early 80s so i am guessing John Taylor likes us too? I knew the band was formed in Brum but had no idea they were Villa fans.

I don't think Le Bon is a Brummie any way, he only went to university there. born in London i think.

Hertfordshire.

Pretty sure only Roger is Villa. And he actually goes to games sometimes.

You can blame the Birmingham Mail for saying Le Bon is Villa

I'm not sure I want us too closely associated with the band that made the worst cover version of all time.
