California Zephyr
Died Too Young Show
They say it's sexy to die early and leave a pretty corpse. Life is pleasant. Death is peaceful. It's the transition that's troublesome. Banksy once said: “I mean, they say you die twice. One time when you stop breathing and a second time, a bit later on, when somebody says your name for the last time.”

On the Died Too Young Show, DJ Knockout pays respect to artists who passed on too soon, but left behind some of the greatest music ever made. Only playing music from artists or bands with members who died before the tender age of 30.

That includes the infamous 27 club, the 'Day the Music Died' and many other incredible stories of booze abuse, drug addiction and motorcycle accidents.
