Well said
: I've been in music for most of my life. When I
: started listening to heavy metal, Pantera
: was one of the first bands I started
: listening to. With the raw raunchy chords
: from Darrell to Phil screaming like a
: possesed freak. Pantera was different and
: fresh as metal went in the 80s. I was at
: every show they put on, mostly at the
: Diamond Ballroom and even got to meet one of
: my favorite drummers, Darrell's brother,
: Vinnie. Pantera had a sound on their own. To
: have such and senseless killing of a person
: who only loved to live on stage banging his
: head, smokin weed and trying to make his
: goatee as pink as possible Darrell had the
: life that most of us little indie bands only
: dream about. It's a tragic end to a free
: spirited life. Even though we didnt know him
: on a personal level, when youre in a band
: its kind of like a rather large brotherhood.
: We back each other up and argue like were
: married. So when one of us is lost, it kind
: of hits home and puts a lump in your throat.
: Its like we lost a member of the family. I
: know that I speak for all the guys in the
: band when I say we will miss Darrell and the
: energy he had on stage. Here's to ya dude
: with "Good friends and a bottle of
: pills".
