Tragedy, metal guitarist killed (2 Viewers)

[GRK]

I regret to inform you that Dimebag Darrell (of Damageplan and Pantera) was shot dead last night.
Although I was not a fan, I still hit me pretty hard.
I know he was an idol to many. My regrets to his die-hard fans.

That is so f*cked up and sad. Dimebag was one hell of a guitar player and wrote some mighty riffs with Pantera. What the hell is wrong with this world? :frown:

No more a tragedy than when anyone else gets killed.

Still, RIP.

Indeed. Why does people get so upset when a celebrity or someone famous dies? a starving person in Africa who dies is just as sad as if someone of 'value' dies..

R.I.P though, I hope you have it nice for all eternity and not the oposit..

this is why most people will end up in hell. How can an ordinary man be an "Icon of the world" The world is fvcked up right. It's us, the humans who have made it Fvcked up.

That african kid is worth just as much as a famous metal-guitarist.
The Icon of the world is Jesus Christ. Look what he has done for all of us.

I guess it's selfishness

Think about it. You don't want your favorite actor to die, because you want to see him in new movies for your own enjoyment, right?

Pantera nor Damageplan aren't among my fave bands, but still.....:frown:
Anyhow, my fave Pantera song was their cover of Black Sabbath's "Planet Caravan" (from "Far Beyond Driven")....

As a tribute, here are the lyrics (which, for me, suits the mood):

"Planet Caravan"

We sail through endless skies
stars shine like eyes
the black night sighs
The moon in silver trees
falls down in tears
light of the night
The earth, a purple blaze
of sapphire haze
in orbit always

While down below the trees
bathed in cool breeze
silver starlight breaks down the night
And so we pass on by the crimson eye
of great god Mars
as we travel the universe


P/S: Dimebag Darrel was shot on Dec 8, which coincidentally is the date of John Lennon's death (Dec/8/80).....

UR absolutely right, of course its our nature. We want to have icons and someone too look up to! we want someone to care about and so on. So I will kiss ur ass Your are totally right man. That is also one reason why we are not perfect
