Dimebag Darell

[Damageinc840]

So we are rapidly approaching the anniversary of Dime's death (Thursday.) Im wondering if anyone has any refliections or things they'd like to say in regards. Personaly I plan on drinking about as much Crown Royale as I possibly can.

I saw him with damageplan, shadows fall, and the haunted (not much of a show, but I figured at 16 dollars how coud i go wrong?) in new orleans on halloween last year. He put shots of wild turkey on the end of his headstock and passed them out into the crowd, and I got one. IT was a fucking blast. I had no idea that I would never have another chance to see him again.

Well Anyone else have any input? Maybe I'm just blowing smoke up a dead dogs ass, but whatever the fuck.

Long live Brother Dime's Memory! Cheers!

Was never into Damageplan, Pantera was good back in the day. I won't take a minute of silence for Dimebag. I personally don't celebrate the death of people, but have fun.

life sucks and then you die

never cared much for his music, saw pantera once back in '94 while on tour with sepultura which I liked at the time, he died doing what he loved I suppose, the best way to go

 

[Celtik Militia]

never cared much either...
i care more for Quorthon and Valfar, how come they don't get a "death anniversary" thread?!

Maybe because the only people that know of them are so grim they know to leave them in peace.


I'm sure they are Einherjer now, in Valhalla.

dimebag is dead.. im not happy with that cause he was a very good guitarplayer, but i dont care about his anniversary

 

[TheLastWithPaganBlood]

I dug his music alot and still do. Can't believe it's been one year. Truly a fantastic guy.

As a side note, why would Quorthon and Valfar be in VAlhalla now? As far as I know, they weren't great warriors, so they're probably in Hel. makes sense

Anyone notcie John Lennon and Dimebag Darrel Died on the same Day?
Crazy.

I loved Pantera, but didn't like Damageplan. I remember wakign up watching the news and I heard about it, and it sucked of couse, but that day my school was doing this thing where if you where in a band you can play in some shitty show, and if you sign up you can stay in the school for 24 hours where its one big Jam thing. I signed up for the 24 hour thing because I thought it was going to be fun, when it turned out everyone knew the exact smae songs (seven nation army/smoke ont he water bleechh)

anyway in a corner int he school me and some people held a tiny tribute playing some pantera songs(poorly) for about an hour. Cemetary Gates like 3 times too, bonus.

It was all wicked but i never got into Pantera untill they broke up, and never liked damageplan, and whats worse is all these poser fucks going "RIP DIME YOU WERE THE BEST EVER!!!" when they never heard of him untill the incident (not calling anybody here that, I just know a few kids like that), and if you say somthing like "well Alexi Laiho, Steve Vai, or Randy Rhoads were really good" they dont know who the fuck you are talking about.

I like ot ramble on and not spell things correctly, anyway, don't rcelebrate death, celebrate life, all that good stuff.

I believe they were both Great Warriors...

 

[TheLastWithPaganBlood]

Yeah, ok, didn't know. What were their slay count then?

 

[The Bringer]

Although the deth of Dimebag Darrell was tragic to the metal community it did not change my views on Pantera. I was never into them and I found their music quite boring.

 

[George]

Ditto. I don't need macho music.

 

[Belgar]

Only in America ... he was a cowboy from hell and died like one when a gun toting moron had to jump on stage.
A better death is one of Valfar of Windir who died frozen in the woods (after too much drinking; I think).

 

[TheLastWithPaganBlood]

Fuck yeah ur bneitheri going to Valhalla since it is reserved for graeat warriors.. fuck i' mdrunk...

 

[Mork]

I hope to die in battle one day....

 

[The Bringer]

Like a great samurai warrior?

 

[Celtik Militia]

yeah Valfar's death is beautiful... yet silly at the same time.
