When Duran Duran was announced as part of Coachella 2011, we crossed our fingers hoping this would be a sign of more dates to come. Well, the cats out of the bag and Duran Duran will be launching their world tour starting in May in the U.K.

Original members Simon Le Bon, Nick Rhodes, John Taylor and Roger Taylor will be firing up the bands trek starting May 18th in Newcastle, United Kingdom at the Metro Radio Arena. The tour will be supporting the bands latest album All You Need Is Now. The bands single of the same name was released December 8th.

Other dates include, Liverpool, Brighton, Cardiff and Manchester. No U.S. dates have been announced for summer yet. Tickets for the U.K. leg go on sale January 28th.
