Eardrum Buzz Radio Shows

EDBZ Live with Bret and Meagan featuring Tremolo and Dreamgaze 2025 bands

For our September get together Meagan Masingill and Bret Miller featured bands performing at either/both of the big shows happening September 25-27 in the Pacific Northwest. We were live under the San Diego stars, the weather was nice and we had a great time, as we usually do. If you're in the Pacific Northwest or just love the bands that much to make a pilgrimage, you're in for three great nights whichever city you choose! I'd love to see at least half of the bands live and have actually seen both Mo Dotti and Topographies live in Los Angeles.
 
We're also going to see Nitzer Ebb, Front Line Assembly and Clock DVA this Saturday in San Diego and played a set of a few of those bands as well.
 
Dreamgaze takes place in Portland at Swan Dive and features our own DJ Wednesday spinning between bands.

Tremolo happens the same three nights at Central Saloon in Seattle.

After the bands performing at the shows Meagan picked some songs to finish out the night.

Friday I'm In Love: Simple Minds (79-85)

I fell in love with Simple Minds in the early 80's (I know, I'm old) while a young teenager, still finding my footing in the world. While I still haven't found my footing, I still love Simple Minds, especially those heady, experimental, willing-to-go-big years of the late 70's and early 80's. They went from working with producer John Leckie (seriously, look him up) to Steve Hillage to Peter Walsh to Steve Lillywhite to Jimmy Iovine and Bob Clearmountain, all while expanding their sound and eventually hitting big with the Keith Forsey penned (Don't You) Forget About Me, as featured on The Breakfast Club, forever tying that song to our teenage memories.
I chose plenty of live recordings of songs and a set of Extended Mixes. While their studio recordings are incredible, they have always had a great band behind them and the early band, especially bassist Derek Forbes and drummer Brian McGee played lockstep rhythms that became a favorite as part of Simple Minds' sound for several albums. *I also included songs from their performance in 2024 at the Cruel World Festival where they had (likely) the largest crowd of the day.* I got to experience most of it and it was a highlight of my year.
 
When trying to compile a solid three hour show proved difficult due to the almost seven hours of music gathered, I asked listeners and fans what they'd like to hear.
 
Iain Stenhouse, former Glasgow resident suggested: Chelsea Girl, Life in a Day , I Travel, Changeling, Celebrate, Premonition, Love Song and Them For Great Cities, most of which I was going to play anyway and a few I had to cut from the setlist for time. Iain said he used to see Jim Kerr and Charlie Burchill waling around in Glasgow before they got huge.
 
Damian Frood suggested: This Fear of Gods, Factory (from which he named his youthful band), Blood Type O, Someone Somewhere in Summertime -12” and Thirty Frames A Second. During the show he graced us with pictures of his vinyl singles, some of them signed by the band members.
 
Marcus Mayes requested Hunter and the Hunted. He said Simple Minds were why he became a drummer.
 
Meagan Masingill suggested: Someone Somewhere (In Summertime), Promised You a Miracle, Sanctify Yourself (original and/or dub version), Book of Brilliant Things and She’s a River
