The 80s will never die. . . . Well, maybe eventually, but not any time soon. If Duran Durans third-from-the-top spot on the mainstage at Coachella wasnt enough evidence for you, heres more: Echo & the Bunnymen are currently on a headlining, U.S. tour, bringing genuine retro flavor to the House of Blues just one night after the venues cover-band-filled House of 80s Prom.
