Sad news for Pantera fans, Dimebag Darrell was shot & killed in a nightclub in Ohio.
Quote: | COLUMBUS, Ohio (CNN) -- A gunman stormed the stage during a heavy metal concert Wednesday night, firing on members of the band and the audience, killing four people -- including at least one band member -- and wounding at least two others before a police officer shot and killed him, according to Columbus police...
...According to eyewitness accounts, the gunman initially shot the band's guitarist, Dimebag Darrell.
Darrell, 38, and his brother, Vinnie Paul, 40, formed Damageplan after Pantera -- a group they formed in the 1980s -- broke up last year. Their father is Jerry Abbott, a country and western songwriter and producer.

RIP to one of the greatest metal guitarists. His spirit will live on through the hearts of his many fans. I will certainly be having a few drinks today to remember the effect his music had on me.

And awesome effort to that copper that took out that scumbag as well. That is what I give full respect to coppers for.
It's such a shame it happened though. We don't have enough metal as it is in today's hip-hop pop teeny-bopper world.
