Dimebag Darrel from Pantera is Dead!!!

[Mr. dB]

From Damageplan board:

"all i can say is holy crap!! that was such a freakin' nightmare... i don't ever want to be a part of anything like that again... i'm still shaking.... i don't even know what to say...

i was up close to the stage on the side where DBD was playing.... then i saw the guy jump out of the crwod onto the stage... he was yelling something about how "you broke up pantera.... you ruined my life.... what about phil??? he needs heroin money..." or something like that then i saw the gun and he shot DBD right in the head... when DBD went down he kept shooting... then he turned around for bobzilla then vinnie... teh hole time i thought it was part of the show... i had blood on me i was so close... i'm still freakin' out here...

after he turned around and kept shooting i was gone... i swear i almost crapped my pants... it was ####' crazy as ####... people were totally messed up outside... i was standing next to this one chick and she was crying and couldn't stop... she fell on the ground and it was like she was possesed or something... dude it was so kayotic its not even funny... the cops showed up and then people started sayin' that DBD was killed... then people started freaking out even more...

i can't belive this happend... its so crazy... its totally unreal and there's no way to describe how messed up i am right now...

i had tickets to the show in flint michigan too... i don't know whats going to happen... theres some blood on my ticket stub so i'm going to sell it on ebay or keep it or something... i know DBD is in heaven (or ripping some mad riffs in hell)

I suspect that this writer is full of shit. And the bloody ticket on eBay thing is ghoulish.

Dimebag was the type of guy who never cared if you weren't a fake blonde with big knockers. He'd sit down next to ya and order you a beer w/o a moment's notice. He'd sit for hours with his fans. For a tough metal guy -- he was the nicest guy around.

I worked a show for Damage Plan a few months ago at my small 300-seat venue, and they were all just as nice as can be. Dime and Vinnie were both friendly, polite, and funny. The crew were all ex-Pantera and all sweethearts. Their whole outfit was a class act, top to bottom. What a senseless loss.

What makes this story sad is that the fans fucking loved that man. I had the pleasure of seeing their show a couple weeks ago, and chants of "Dimebag! Dimebag!" were the loudest from the crowd all night. The man had a smile on his face the entire set.

It could have just been an hour of Darrel up on stage fucking around with his guitar, and no one would have minded a bit.

Such a sad day in the music world.

Why!?!?!?!

Great, the club where I work has been approached by all three local TV news organizaions. I guess it's because (1) Damage Plan played here a few months ago, and (B) we're a similar size club to the one where the shooting occurred. I guess they want to do an exposee on security at bars.

Fucking ghouls, they were all over us the next day after the fire in Rhode Island too.
