I'm pretty sure mourning over his death is basically pointless now. It's been what, 2 or 3 years since then? People need to get over it.

edit: yet again someone posted the same thing and I didn't notice, oops

ftr I do like some Pantera though
 
The mourning is over, but the memories remain... Pantera concerts ruled back in the 90's with all that alternative crap being shoved down everyones throat, Pantera bridged the gap of a dead metal scene inside america. With hardly any radio play, or Mtv airtime Pantera shows sold out frequently, and were the rowdiest, wildest, drunkest, concerts of that time period in metal.
 
Seriously, wtf. This thread is so hypocritical. "rest in peace" eh? Well LET HIM REST THEN. It's stupid and pointless to keep digging up graves with threads like this. People really need to do some thinking about what "rest in peace" actually means instead of automatically firing it off like a predefinied mental script.

god i can hear you whining from over here. yes, i am waking him from his eternal slumber over a message board. seriously.

people all over the world celebrate the lives of people by remembering them on the day of their death. who the fuck are you to say people cant? and moreover "rest in peace" does not mean "dont let people bother that dead guy"... it is an blessing or expression of hope that a deceased person is at peace.

Ditto, I don't know what the big freaking deal is. If you don't like a person, why go through the trouble of whining about it in a message board post about said person.
If you don't like it, don't read it, it's simple...

BTW, R.I.P. Dimebag...:rock:

Exactly.

I say Rest in Peace to honor a great guitarist who had a whole lot more potential than I think had been expressed. He was an awesome guy, I wish I could have met him and seen him play.
 
wow, my mistake for thinking this was an intelligent board. I keep forgetting. People die every day, you know. I don't mean to belittle a particular person, but how many days go by unremembered and deaths forgotten? Why are only a few remembered, over and over and over ad nauseum? If, as you claim, they don't even care beyond whatever grave there is, then what's the point of even going through the motions like this? If this is the most meaningful event of anyone's life, besides the family of the deceased, then that to me just speaks of a life unfulfilled and left wanting. Every year I see RIP this guitarist or that, and defenders of such topics proclaim "but they did so much for the world!" Well, I don't see RIP Gandhi threads. So you see, I just find this sort of thing hollow and pointless. But carry on, if you must.

you honestly believe that only a few are remembered "ad nauseum"?
what about the family of the average joe who dies? his family will remember him. hell they will probably even come to his gravesite, where his tombstone reads "RIP". Maybe ever get a tattoo with his/her name. so hollow, I know....

I do with my friends/family. I also remember figures who were influential in my life. Dimebag, I never met him, but i was inspired to play guitar because of him. I got into METAL because of him. Reminding people of him on the day of his death is not hollow or pointless for me.

(I usually see only one "RIP DIMEBAG" thread a year btw, usually around.. I dont know ...December 8th)
