Yesterday evening, Dimebag Darrell (former Pantera) was shot death on stage. During a concert of his band Damageplan in Columbus, Ohio, some crazy bastard jumped on stage, and just shot Darrell, and 4 others. The shooter was shot dead by the police immediately.
Just completely shocked. How can something like this happen....... Really unbelievable shit.... :'(
I don't know who this bloke is but fuck. It sounds John Lennon-ish*.
*NOTE TO STUPID PEOPLE - I AM NOT COMPARING JOHN LENNON TO THIS GUY! I AM COMPARING HIS CIRCUMSTANCE OF DEATH.
OMG!!!! No shit? WOW... umm.. who is he again? ;-)
seriously though.. that is aweful.. Although I never cared for Pantara I did think he was a pretty good guitar player..
I wasn't a Pantera fan myself, but some of my friends back when I was in High School were real hard-core fans. We would have mosh pits inside the bus during school trips while listening Pantera.
I was shocked to hear this on Howard Stern this morning. Some say that the reason why the guy might have decided to shoot Dimebag Darrell and the members of his new band was because he blamed them for the break-up of Pantera.
Well, I didn't care too much for their music either, but definately respect the work he's done with Pantera (Cowboys from hell is a classic).
Also a very good guitar player, maybe not the most technical one around, but still he deserves respect for his playing.

Totally agree with Brian May's Wig...
No artist deserves to be shot, not even Toby Keith... although I think Toby Keith should be sent to Iraq and fight for what he believes in instead of cashing in on false patriotism.
I agree with Mike. I hate Axl. He's such an ass. I love Slash and I thought the band was cool...just needed a different singer.
R.I.P. Dimebag.
I was never a fan of Pantera, but let's face it, the guy could lick some serious chops out of 6 strings.

Toby Keith is another story. His superpatriotism and grand ass kissing can't get him nowhere.
