Hello there folks. I trust that all is well. Welcome to Testing For Echo Episode 66 on CHSR FM 97.9 in Fredericton and around the world. I’m your host Tim Scammell.
If you’re a regular listener of Testing For Echo you’ll know that my son Braydon has contributed quite a bit with song and band recommendations that I have never heard before AND bands that he has been involved in and was a member.
So I decided to do this differently today. I’m calling this episode “Braydon’s Picks” and they have all songs have been selected by him.
It’s a pretty sweet list!
I just want to mention something really quickly here. You may have noticed that some of the show ID’s are doubled up between songs. Well, I’ve gathered quite a collection and I don’t have the heart to omit using any of them, so I squeeze almost all of them in. The people were kind enough to record them for me so I owe it to try and play them. I trust that’s okay.
Take care,
Tim

Harvest Music Festival will be making some changes heading into their 35th anniversary next year.
In a Facebook post the festival announced that they will be combining two of their main tents, the Blues and Mojo, into a new site for the festival that will make use of the new outdoor stage in Officers Square.
Courtney Steeves, Harvest’s General Manager, says the new setup will include open air space, an unwalled tented area and an increased capacity of approximately 2000. She says it aims to reduce noise from crowd chatter for a better listening experience and adds that it will leave more resources to improve other Harvest destinations as well.
The festival runs from September 9th – 14th, 2025, with their first round of announced headliners including a trio of festival debuts in Indigo Girls, Melissa Etheridge & The Head And The Heart.

If Ozzfest 97 or the Family Values Tour was your dream concert event, this is the episode for you!
I’ve been wanting to do a hard rock/metal episode for quite a while and this is the one! I was a teenager during the late 90’s nu metal era and if it was in Hit Parader magazine I was into it. This was super fun to put together and while I don’t listen to most of these bands regularly it was great to reconnect with what was a pivotal part of my teenage years. I hope you’ll enjoy the show and my stories! Pairs well with WCW Revenge on N64 and pepperoni Pizza Pockets.
