Unf*cking believable.

A dark day, indeed.

Jesus.  I heard a guy on the radio this morning who was at the show.  He said the guy was dressed like a security guard, so the band didn't really react to him.  Then he just opened up.  Damn.  I really dug Pantera too.  What a f***ing waste.
 
Re: Pantera's Dimebag Derrell murdered on stage:

I saw Pantera live 8 times over the years. I was looking forward to seeing Damageplan. Looks like I won't get that chance. I feel really bad for his brother/drummer Vinnie. Imagine watching some f*ckhead waste your brother.
 
Re: Pantera's Dimebag Derrell murdered on stage:

What's the deal? Was the shooter going after the band or someone in the crowd? Or was it just some whack job?
 
Re: Pantera's Dimebag Derrell murdered on stage:

I guess he walked right up to Dime and shot him 5 or 6 times at point blank range, then started shooting into the crowd.
 
Re: Pantera's Dimebag Derrell murdered on stage:

I wasn't a huge Pantera fan... but I mourn the death of anyone. Violence is such an ugly thing.
 
Re: Pantera's Dimebag Derrell murdered on stage:

Apparently the guy was upset about Pantera's breakup. He blamed Darrell. At least that's what I heard on the radio.
 
Re: Pantera's Dimebag Derrell murdered on stage:

Un-****ing-REAL. And the Security at the venue did a real good job apparently of searching everyone.
 
Re: Pantera's Dimebag Derrell murdered on stage:

I don't know the club's policies, but back when I used to play out, most clubs barely checked ID's. I've also worked as a bouncer, and it is very difficult to keep an eye on everything that is going on, especially at that kind of show. Most clubs hire no-kneck thugs for security anyway. I always preferred using my head and my mouth as opposed to my hands though.
 
Re: Pantera's Dimebag Derrell murdered on stage:

So he was clearly a nut job. If the band won't play together... kill them. ::)
 
Re: Pantera's Dimebag Derrell murdered on stage:

Which of course destroys any possibility of seeing them together again.

Actually, he was wearing a hockey jersey
 
Re: Pantera's Dimebag Derrell murdered on stage:

just goes to show that eyewitness accounts are not always credible evidence.

Woops, sorry, didn't see this and started another thread.
