RIP dimebag

[Goodieluver]

A year ago today, Darrell DIMEBAG Abbott was shot to death on stage during the opening of the damageplan concert in Ohio. Truly an amazing guitarist and the best one to ever grace metal. Gods dont die, dime lives

Under the lights where we stand tall
Nobody touches us at all
Showdown, shootout, spread fear within, without
We're gonna take what's ours to have
Spread the word throughout the land
They say the bad guys wear black
We're tagged and can't turn back

You see us comin'
And you all together run for cover
We're takin over this town

Here we come reach for your gun
And you better listen my friend, you see
It's been slow down below,
Aimed at you we're the cowboys from hell
Deed is done again, we've won
Ain't talking no tall tales friend
'Cause high noon, your doom
Comin' for you we're the cowboys from hell

Pillage the village, trash the scene
But better not take it out on me
'Cause a ghost town is found
Where your city used to be
So out of the darkness and into the light
Sparks fly everywhere in sight
From my double barrel, 12 gauge,
Can't lock me in your cage

You see us comin'
And you all together run for cover
We're takin over this town

Here we come reach for your gun
And you better listen my friend, you see
It's been slow down below,
Aimed at you we're the cowboys from hell
Deed is done again, we've won
Ain't talking no tall tales friend
'Cause high noon, your doom
Comin' for you we're the cowboys from hell

Pantera will always be one of my favorite bands and dimebag will always be one of my favorite guitar players. R.I.P. Dime.

sounds like i'm missing out on the late great dimebag, i gotta go check em out.

why was he shot?

 

[Goodieluver]

cuz some obsessed assclown was dillusional and was sayin pantera stole his songs and said he wrote the songs. Story goes one time he went to a local band tryout and gave them some music to play and they told him "sorry we're not a pantera cover band" and he flipped saying it was his music

That's Not Why...

The guys confession stated he was pissed because he felt Dimebag broke up Pantera. It had nothing to do with that mish mash you posted.

I liked Dimebag, a very good guitarist but by no means the best ever in metal.

I ask you who was better in metal standards

Also, the mish mash i posted may or may not be true, nobody knows what happened and why, even vinnie paul

But CBS did say this, quoting nathan gales mother
"His mother said Gale was obsessed with Pantera, a popular, Grammy-nominated heavy metal band, and had a drug problem in high school. She said he believed the band had stolen song lyrics from him, a statement also made by some of Gale's friends who have said Gale complained the band was trying to steal his identity. "

and heres more mish mash
"Friends of Gale's describe him as a loner. They say over the past few years his personality changed, and they add that they distanced themselves from him.

They say he loved music, and was almost obsessed with the band Pantera. Two members of Pantera formed Damageplan.

Former friend Jeremy Brey says, "We started noticing things. We were having band practice and he came over to sing a couple songs. There were a few he wrote that had Pantera lyrics and we said you can't do this, these aren't your songs."

Gale was a Marine, but friends say he did not show extra interest in guns or violence."
