The Halftime Show X Squeeze Radio – Pumpkinhead Tribute (Jun 24, 2015)

On Tuesday June 9th Robert Diaz aka Pumpkinhead (or PH) passed away. It was a shock for the whole NYC underground scene and I immediately knew I had to do some kind of tribute show. I took time to gather music (i.e. digitize, clean, edit, etc) and started to reach out to those that were closest to him and set a date for the show. The last Wednesday of the month is when I give my time slot to Sucio Smash so he can do his Squeeze Radio show. I told him we needed to do a joint show and pay our respects to PH to which he responded “let’s do it”. So Big Zoo and Sucio held down the mics while I rocked the tables. The actual music played ended up being minimal compared to what I prepared, but more importantly and enlightening were the stories from our guests Marco Polo, GMS, Blitzkrieg, Immortal Technique, PackFM, Tonedeff, Mr. Met, Mr. Mecc, Poison Pen, Keith WildChild, Nems, Claudia and Pumpkin’s wife Shawntay. For anyone interested in more information on PH….this show is for you.
