Set List - Music Performance Comparison

Duran Duran has had hit or miss albums throughout their career, from profoundly iconic to leaked success to poor reviews.  This is true of any musician or band.

In this edition of Set List - Music Performance Comparison, consider the music industry's classic "Rio" drums as covered by musician, Astronaut2005, and the live from London performance of "Rio" by Duran Duran.

Astronaut2005 v. Roger Taylor




The live version of "Rio" caps off the concert in a spectacular and extraordinary way.  The perfect way to end an exciting night.  The audience is beyond involved in the performance and the band is fueled by the electric atmosphere.  

The drum cover seemed to be rather fast, but did reach every recorded note.  In my opinion, I can envision Astronaut2005 playing live.  The question, though, is if he can match the positively intense atmosphere.
