Duran Duran at Red Rocks Roger Taylor Stops Playing Suddenly!
On 8/28/2023 Duran were performing their cover of "White Lines" by Grand Master Flash.
Roger Taylor, the drummer, stops the song due to technical difficulties and returns about a minute and a half later and starts the song over.
 Simon Le Bon is genuinely confused and trying to make the best of it lol.

    Sólo sucede cuando hay músicos de verdad. Cuando Warren el guitsrrista, también detuvo varias veces el show, por el bien de un buen sonido. Luego partían otra vez y seguía el show. Mientras tanto, Simón parece asombrado, pero también es parte de lo que debe hacer para no empacientar a su público. Bien por Duran Duran. Bien por sus buenos músicos que tonas aumún en vivo y son sintetizadores como era la crítica en los 80.

    Something was really whacked in his monitor mix....he was probably playing to a loop and/or click track. If the drummer can't hear it, the whole band is headed for a major train wreck. If that was the case, he did the right thing.

    Such crap posted . . . Roger has used in ear ( and over ear! ) devices from the very beginning. He is particular about what his monitors give him. Having one not function in a live environment, with technical timing necessary in Duran's music, it would be near impossible. They are all very accomplished musicians and would be among the least likely of their genre to resort to "faking" it. Any live show comes with the fear of equipment failure. I've had it happen myself with an amp head going south. Switched to my combi amp, played on. But it sucked for me. . .

I have seen many shows, worked many shows, seen performers fall off the stage into an orchestra pit, seen heavy can lights fall from the rigging, good grief last year a poor dancer in China had a huge projection monitor fall right on his head. This is nothing.

      "Improv" is the shortened version of "improvisation", not "improve" which is a completely different word - as in, you need to improve your spelling skills before dissing the improv skills of others. However, if for whatever reason, that would be difficult or impossible (maybe you're dyslexic) then maybe just lay off dissing improv skills.
