      Seriously... Losing anyone you care about in any capacity is terrible, but watching your younger brother and best bud get gunned down right in front of you is truly traumatic.. And during a live show no less!..

      That i do feel for. I didn't like vinnies attitude after. He took his frustrations out not only on the shooter and phil. But on pantera fans as a whole. Remember it was a crazy pantera fan that delusionally blamed dime for the breakup that killed him.

      @@1848revolt I don’t recall him taking it out on us. Maybe I missed something or misinterpreted something. I loved pantera. I wasn’t at their last show but one of them. The extreme steel tour with static x, slayer and one or two other bands in Dallas. I was bummed as fuck hearing about the split and was hopeful like everyone else that they’d get their heads out of their asses but after Dime was murdered I had zero interest in even listening to pantera for quite a few years and definitely no interest in seeing some cobbled together somewhat pantera. Fuck that shit. So I was fully onboard with vinnie here. That being said now that the two members of pantera that actually were all in are gone it doesn’t even matter to me. Have a reunion or remake. Like Phil said “it’s all fake”.

      I guess Rex and Phil are broke? They're basically not important anymore. But I suppose doing this tribute can get them a quick money grab? That's all this is about as far as I can tell. I doubt they're heart-broke about Dime & Vinny.

      If Dimebag's girlfriend, Rita Haney, can go on stage and sing "Walk" next to Phil Anselmo like she did back in August in Houston, that's good enough for me. If she can forgive Phil, we all can. I'm glad I got to see Pantera at Louder Than Life and you can tell Phil really appreciates and loves his fans and what he does. I'm sure he has a lot of regrets that haunt him and if he could take back what he said about Dimebag being severely beaten and the poor choices that he made leading up to the breakup of Pantera, he would. I really think Phil has grown up and changed for the better. He certainly showed it at Louder Than Life. Everybody deserves a second chance.

They waited for him to die so they could disrespect his wishes, and him and his brother's legacy. I'm not saying Zack Wylde or the rest of the guys disrespected him, it was all the management, and fans demanding it.
