Exclusive: Duran Duran and David Lynch American Express Unstaged show rehearsal held at Mayan Theater

Los Angeles, CA march 22, 2011.

 

 

Lynch: "My job is, you know, listen to all the tracks. And images came. So we’re building those things right now that will go along with Duran Duran on the stage. It will be kind of an experiment tomorrow night, but I think it has possibilities of being a good experiment."

Lynch: " My role, as I told you, is to do this overlay. In my mind, it’s double exposure, going with what’s happening on the stage. The possibilities are really beautiful for things to happen. Audience participation… they’ll be able to see the show, number one, but they’ll also be able to see a couple cameras that will be available just to them in case they want to sidestep the show a little bit. They still would be hearing it, I guess. But, you know — it’s a show! The audience’s participation is to enjoy the show."

Lynch: "I’ve been a fan of Duran Duran from the past, but recently, I’m with a music company called Sunday best recordings in England. They, I guess, know Duran Duran. So my buddy Big Dean Hurley and I did a remix of “Girl Panic” — one of Duran Duran’s new songs — and then this American Express Unstaged came along on top of that. So I’ve got some kind of connection with Duran Duran".
