Unhappy “Dimebag” Darrel Abbott shot at Damageplan show

the former Pantera guitarist, and current Damageplan guitarist. was shot and killed on stage last night. the gunman allegedly target him because he felt he was the reason for Pantera's breakup. he was a great guitarist, and a great guy. he will be missed.

I saw them at the Worchester Pladium with White Zombie. Was one of my favorite shows. It was right after Vulgar Display came out....was a real good show.

i have been a pantera fanatic since cowboys came out in the early 90's. dimebag was one of the best metal guitarists of all time, and one of my biggest musical influences. today was a sad day. its awful to think that it is taking a risk every time you go to a show. i cant believe that there are people like this in the world.

Pantera is a metal band... with a slight southern influence. Dimebag could really shred.... RIP Dimebag

A drug reference ?

Skip - the psycho that shot everyone was shot and killed by a police officer walking by the club that heard the gun shots. i would have rather seen this guy go to jail and get his by the Pantera fans in jail.

Raider Ron - just comenting on your use of a smilie. who cares what his nickname is. did your mom name you "Raider"? seemed like a childish cheapshot to me.

I think id rather have been nicknamed "raider" as opposed to "Dimebag myself. I wonder if he liked to smoke weed? Regardless, its a sad story.
