So, in my Downey-obsessed frenzy I popped online for a minute and came across a very interesting tidbit. To preface said tidbit, one must know that Bob also has a side gig going in music and has released an album aside from his mini-stints including a rendition of Smile on the Chaplin soundtrack, etc. Consider this for a moment if you will...
Robert Downey Jr. opening for Duran Duran.
How about that? Back in '05 they offered him the gig, but he had to turn it down due to film schedules. If I remember right, that's the year that they came to Houston/Austin but chose to do so on a Sunday, thus testing my resolve. I did the right thing and skipped the show. But seeing two of my most favorite "things" at once in such an unlikely pairing would have been truly wicked.
Maybe next time.
