Blast from the past
havent been into metal etc for years- but i was a big pantera fan at one point.....

Awesome guitar player- in fact all of them were fantastic musicians. Vinnie paul was a huge inspiration when i was a drummer

Nooooo, that's sad. He was one of my favourite guitarists, never got to see him play live either.

So much sadder when it's actually a talented musician and not some hyped-up, self-professed-gangster, "i'm asking for it," rap star.

OMG!

Can't believe Dimebag's gone! Totally shocked!

If Vinnie is also dead the drumming community will be devastated - he was a true inspiration to me when I was learning to play!

I read on a website that Vinnie is alive, I really hope that it´s true

US is a mentally disturbed country with their weapon laws. Open a bank account and get a shotgun free :-/ how sick is that...

I were and still is a Pantera fan and have seen them several times so the news are real shocking that this could happen.

R.I.P

Dimebag will be missed by many people

I saw him play with Pantera at Newcastle city hall about 12 years ago. A damn good guitarist, probably better when he took the makeup off!

RIP

just read the news - totally gutted. Such a great guitar player.
Damage plan was sounding cool. Was really looking forward to seeing them.
Was just like the old stuff.
