I'm suprised this hasn't already been done. For those who don't know, guitarist of metal band 'Pantera', Dimebag Darrell, was shot dead a few days ago. He made some great music, and think he atleast deserves a tribute.

I agree. I heard about this a couple of days ago. Wasn't he playing with another band when he was shot? I dunno. I think I'm going to listen to some Pantera stuff this week, though. [img]smile.gif[/img]

He was playing on stage with DamagePlan when he got shot :(

Yeah, some dingbat obsessed with Pantera was supposedly upset that he broke off from the band. Stupid...

RIP

Oh by the way there has been a thread about this in Current Events here

RIP
He will be missed by many.

I don't know who he is but he deserves a decent R.I.P. like anyone. :(

i know, this is a sad thing, he'll be in the minds of his fans forever! i wanna find the dude who shot him..and shoot him, but then it'll be another chain of shooting.. and shooting the killer won't bring him back ~_~,

rest in peace.

While this is very true ('everyone deserves a decent rest in peace') I can't help but question why we are actually making a special tribute to a musician? Not that I hate his music, I've never heard him. But what makes Dimebag so insanely special over any other ordinary human being?

This's the story on it from what I've heard, my friend told me about it... A man jumped up on stage and shot him five times and shot and killed two other people as well, and some cops shot the man who was doing all the shooting, so there was actually four deaths at that DamagePlan concert. It really upsets me that people would do that, because I play guitar and I have intentions to become famous... ;) But that's not the point, I love DamagePlan and Pantera, both are awesome bands, I don't see why he would shoot him if he really loved Pantera that much, cause now there's no Pantera and never will be again, their guitarist is dead... R.I.P. and long live metal!!!!
