A sad day indeed... they were gunned down at a concert in Ohio, with their new band Damageplan. What a fucking world! According to eyewitness accounts, the gunman initially shot and killed the band's guitarist, Dimebag Darrell. Darrell, 38, and his brother, Vinnie Paul, 40, are former members of Pantera CNN link. |

I am/was a big fan of them. "Vulgar Display of Power" in the early 90s left me speechless. The tight playing between the two brothers was what made them unique. This is devastating news for me. -

Registered 17 years agoHoly crap, man I loved Dimebag the man was a genius on the guitar and vulgar display was massive.
I saw pantera live a few times and they were truly awesome.
Sad news indeed.
That link wasn't clear about who died exactly tho..
"According to eyewitness accounts, the gunman initially shot and killed the band's guitarist, Dimebag Darrell. Darrell, 38, and his brother, Vinnie Paul, 40, are former members of Pantera"
I couldn't find that in the link, dunno if I just missed it, or it has changed since you initially posted it. -

Registered 18 years agoBBC news have got it as well, so there go all chances of it being a fraud (Which I really really hoped it was)
RIP Dimebag, I'll be playing Cowboys from Hell neighbour annoyingly loud for you tonight man
Couldn't find anything about Vinnie dying, maybe he'll pull through

Registered 17 years agoVinnie's gonna pull through from what I've heard - not even sure if he's injured at all. There's rumours that Pat Lachman's dead and the bassist from the opening band took one in the leg at point blank range.There's a few members of the audience in hospital... and I think a security guard dead.
Weak.

Sad news indeed. He was one of the best metal guitarists of all time, trully an original. At least he died playing for ROCK!
RIP Dimebag, give the big D a high-five for me.

Registered 17 years agoApparently it might be a big hoax...
...some douche from Elektra has been saying it was a publicity stunt. Cocksuckers.
Though I can't find reference to the message that I was just emailed by a mate... so it's likely it's not.
