R.I.P DIME

my old band was actually scheduled to be direct support for Damageplan at the machineshop in Flint Mi the day after the al larosa(sp?) gig... I was pumped to possibly meet and share the stage with the last metal guitarist that really mattered to me...

I remember getting up for work feeling great for the nights festivities when a friend told me the horrible news..I still have unused tickets and a poster from a show that never happened

R.I.P. Dime!!!! The Riffs, the tone, the chops, the attitude..it will never be forgotten!

Damn thats crazy. I'd have mixed feelings about such items. In a way it seems like they would be sort of morbid artifacts of a tragic time, but also, they're valuable mementos of great possibilities. Don't let those go!
 
One of my best memories was from when I was 13 or 14 years old and standing in line for hours to meet Dime. Great guy! Some funny stories came from that experience, but busy at work right now...may type them up later.

:kickass:
 
I made this video for the 1 year after his death. I just used clips I had lying around and from other tribute videos. Just wanted some feedback on what you guys think.

I was watching the Vulgar Videos today and I got the willies watching that video too.

The finger and the face Dime makes during the solo is one of my favorite moments in Pantera History hahaha.
 
+1 for that Moscow gig!
I get chills down my spine when i watch "Monsters in Moscow", it has to be the best gig played by Metallica, AC/DC and Pantera ever.
So incredibly tight, and the fuckin' kick in the face is so hard it actually hurts to watch!
 
FUUUUCK. I am getting so shitted on for this, but I just saw it and CAN'T RESIST.
