Episode 485 of Concert Pipeline featuring Kurt Deimer and a tribute to former Concert Pipeline guest, Joe Louis Walker, who passed away on April 30 at the age of 75. First we tribute Joe by sharing most of the interview from 2016. We then talk to Kurt Deimer about his need to stop playing music at the age of 20 and coming back to it many years later, touring with Steel Panther and Buckcherry, his horror film career including being killed by Michael Meyers in the 2018 “Halloween,” his own horror franchise “Hillbilly Hollow,” and his new double album “And So It Begins…” which came out May 9.
