Deus Ex Alpha

Today marks the 1 year anniversary of Metal's greatest loss; the passing of Darrell Lance Abbott... known to most as "Dimebag".

For those that dont know, in short; Dimebag was shot on stage whilst playing with his band Damage Plan. He was killed by an angry Pantera "fan", because they had split up.

I love the dude, but feel like a poser for not even seeing him, ever...
I'm not the biggest fan too...
Bah bah bah BUT, despite what happens I refuse to be sad about it, be fucking proud even if he died, he fucking rules and still does in death.

Godamn fucking yes he was gifted, even Mr. T respects Dimebag.



1966 - 2004
RIP, you fucking awesome bastard.
*salutes*

Ross, my mate, loaded his mp3 player with Pantera and Damage Plan today. Only then did Bob realese what day it was.

We miss Dimebag.

Please include Metal's second greatest loss BEFORE DIMEBAG: David Williamson.

Yeh its a bit irrational to call it metal's biggest loss as there have been thousands of events which have changed the genre of music. This was just so famous because of the way it happened. Dimebag was good though.

I'd say a tad better than "good"

Yeh, he was tremendously fast.

What the...just tremandously fast?! o_0
Play Cementary Gates, NOW.

He is seriously the greatest loss, he was such a inspiration, inside and outside of the music.

I seriously beg to differ, he was the best shredder by far, and the most inpsirational character on the metal scene.

He was not the greatest loss ... there have been "other" losses in Metal ... I may not know whom or what, but there are ...

Don't worry, I'll teach you.

What about Metallica's "death?"

The bassist's (iirc) death pretty much killed the band, the whole community were sad, but he didn't cause as much as a effect to the genre as Dimebag did.
