Not trying to sound mean or anything, but if they get killed onstage from some "fan", doesn't that mean you suck?

JohntheSpartan, shut the -blam!- up, this guy was a psycho, and pissed at pantera's split-up. DimeBag was the greatest guitarist ever born, and inspired me to start playing guitar.

He will be sorely missed.

I may sound like as -blam!- - but damn that is ironic that a fan of Pantera music would be complaining about sensitivity.

I agree with Denis Leary on this one - Kill your Parents, Kill the band then yourself -- bunch of self hating pukes -- and the message of that music was violence -- sound like it was inevitable.

"Let he who lives by the sword, die by the sword"

For all you that can't understand it - Preach Violence and you reap what you sow.

I have a heart -- but last Pantera Concert I went to, my pal got a broken arm and I got a tooth broken, and we got off light. Violence is encouraged by these bands -- and while the music is good, it's not the only release they crave.

Go stand in the pit for 30 seconds at a BadLuck13 or Pantera concert. Well -- I guess not Pantera anymore...

Scottish and stereotyped

Frankie, you will be usurped!

I couldn't believe this when I saw it...last time I saw him was the Metal Hammer awards in London I think…drunk on stage and accepting the award for "Golden God". He was so wrecked that he was talking to an invisible drummer and said "A 1, A 2, A 1234", trying to start a rhythm. It was funny...but sad at the same time. It's also sad that I'll remember him partially the way I should have; a guitar hero.

RIP Darrell

Cynical as I may be -- You're a sick -blam!- man...

Seriously -- step away from the computer and get help.

Why the hell do you care? You planning something?? Quit acting like an idiot. Seriously -- for even asking that question you need severe emotional help.

Indeed.

Even though I may have given the cynical response earlier (and that's still the way I feel) I didn't think it was 'cool' that it happened. Far from it --

I wasn't surprised, and I don't feel particularly sorry for him in particular (Like I said earlier - you reap what you sow) , but I do feel bad for him as a human being. The same way I would feel bad for any other human who had their life ended prematurely. (Almost any other human -- Drunk Drivers and -blam!-s can suck my dick. I hope they die early)


I would have felt bad if someone shot Steve Vai, the only thing he ever did wrong was make crappy hair metal in the 80's.
But hell of a guitarist.

RIP Darell, you will not be forgotten. It is 24 years to the day that John Lennon died by another fan, angry about the Beatles breaking up. Another guitar legend passes from this world.

And no, Pantera was not about violence, it wasnt thuggery, it was about shoving it to the man. Most of their lyrics actually teach you to defend yourself and let no man walk over you. It was about standing up for yourself when no one else would. It was self-esteem for the poor man if you will. So all you people who say that Pantera was violence, it really wasnt, and you havent really listened to the lyrics, otherwise you wouldn't think this.

RIP Darell !!

A few of their songs are about fighting repression, but the descriptions in those songs is what I mean by violence -- and no matter what you're fighting against -- violence is violence. I stand by my statement. (As it was only me who said they were about violence) Maybe that wasn't their overall goal, notoriuswun, but it was certainly their underlying metaphor.

If you look deeper into it, alot of
Pantera's lyrics were actually about Heroin addiction. How heroin addiction ties into violence is beyond me, but if anyone can give me an actuall lyric that specifically has violence in it, ie shooting some one, stabbing someone, or any other physical violence then they are a much bigger Pantera fan than me, and I consider myself a pretty big Pantera fan.
