Birthday Season - Red Carpet Massacre

On April 23, Prince Louis celebrated his birthday.  On April 26, Roger Taylor celebrated his birthday.  On April 29, I will celebrate my birthday alongside Duke, Jerry, Michelle, and more I am certain I can name here.  April truly defines birthday season.  (Of course, Prince William and Princess Catherine stole the spotlight with their wedding on April 29, 2011.)

On April 29, 2008, I celebrated my last birthday as an undergraduate.  On May 9, 2008, I graduated from college.  On May 14, 2008, I went to my first (and only) concert featuring the one and only Duran Duran.  The concert was in promotion of Red Carpet Massacre.

The concert was the ultimate birthday/graduation gift.  So let's talk about RCM.

Red Carpet Massacre was released in November 2007.  Read the full story on Wikipedia.
