It's been 10 years today, since the world was robbed of the greatest metal guitarist of all time. Darrell "Dimebag" Abbott. For those of you who don't know who Dimebag was or how he died, he was murdered, shot 3 times in the head by a deranged fan, while on stage playing with his band, Damage plan, his brother Vinnie Paul was the drummer. They were both founding members of Pantera. I consider Pantera to be the best metal band of all time, unlike a lot of metal bands that seem to get softer as the years go by, Pantera started out heavy, and they just got heavier with time.
Their music inspired me to pick up a guitar 20 years ago, I was an 11 year old kid listening this stuff and my parents thought there was something seriously wrong with me haha, I have one of Dimebag's signature guitars, Dean Dime Razorback, play it every day.
RIP Dime, gone but never forgotten.
