This Friday night, Duran Duran are playing the Treasure Island amphitheater, and I wouldn't be a good host of Transmission if I didn't celebrate that fact and their continued awesomeness as a band. That's why this week's program will be nothing but the Birmingham, England group, filled with album cuts, B-sides, solo material, side projects and more. It's an hour of "The Wild Boys," and I hope you’ll join me.
