    “We’ll do a shot for you.”

    That’s a bit insensitive, is it not?

      Or maybe your just thinking too much…

      “BLACK TOOTH GRIN” Learn about the man, THEN try and sound “sensitive” I already did mine. And I have not taken off my “Getcha pull” Braclet since they came out. They are even in my wedding photos. And I am sure that Rita does not think that the original commment that Axl made was “insensitive”. RIP Dime. You will always be missed.

        John Lennon has impacted my consciousness more then Dimebag.

          I didn’t realize that they died on the same day, 24 years apart…

          Brian Jones and Jim Morrison died on the same day, 2 years apart.

    Rest In Peace Dime Bag Darrell! …And to all the hater’s & asshole’s just remember it could easily happen to you or someone you love. He might of not been the best guitarist in the world, but he no doubt was very influential to many.

    can’t believe it’s been 5 years. 29 years for lennon. it’s a bummer to think of the multitude of music that we were robbed of because of two assholes with guns.

    As a fan that has had the honor of meeting Dimebag on a few occasions, I can tell you, he really was as nice as everyone says he was. Other then his brother Vinnie, I have never met anyone famous, who has been as genuine as Dimebag.

    Since Dimebags unfortunate death, I have had the privilege of witnessing the sights and sounds of various metal bands in Dallas paying their respects to Dimebag in their own special way.

    What I put on YouTube are a few special moments that I have been lucky enough to capture on video to share with you.

    RIP, one of the most influential guitarists ever. Pantera got me into metal, Dime is the reason why I want to play an instrument. Sucks I never got to see these guys play a show, was too young at the time.

    A Cowboy From Hell, that was Far Beyond Driven, you were Goddamn Electric, the Medicine Man, who wrote his Message In Blood, using The Art Of Shredding, you died in a Vulgar Display Of Power, Walk to the Cemetery Gates, Rise above the Floods, you are forever Stronger Than All, and we are forever Hollow.

  • Hammer_Smashed_Hurtt

    I really wish that Phil and Vinnie would squash this bullshit between them, maybe it would make things a little easier each year. I wish they would go into a locked room, no Rita, no press, No Metal Fucking hammer (whom by the way can go broke and wither) and just say what they have to say, beat the shit out of each other, and at the end of the day realize that this bullshit between them- Vinnie’s grudge and Phil’s arrogance wont ever bring back dime. Nor will their reconciliation, but at least fans will get back a small piece, a small thread of hope that something that I, and every other die hard fan wants is to know is that Pantera did not die from a pathetic war of words. It will lie down when Phil, Rex, and Vinnie can sit in a room together and let fucking bygones be bygones.

    I know this is no means a perfect world, but fuck it.

    And yes i got choked up typing “Die”and “Pantera” in the same sentence.

  • elijahbtorn

    black tooth grin tonight or this morning. and im going to Vinnie’s strip club.

    • LoomeyTUnes

      Do both. He would. I met Rita at Mayhem in San Antiono and she was the coolest person to meet. I will never forget the moment I heard on the Radio that he is dead. But, he lives on in his music and in his fans. So stop the Bullshit and let the man have his due and his day. (no you elijahbtorn).

    I did a LOT of Black Tooth Grin shots on 12/8, but not just for Dime, but for my brother, who died one year ago on the same day. Dime was his favorite guitarist, and he even played one of his Washburn models. The date of his death was pure coincidence (heart failure).
