" Got this from a source on IRC. REMEMBER THERE IS NO WAY TO VERIFY IT. Asshole's speech (!) "he was yelling something about how "you broke up pantera.... you ruined my life.... what about phil??? he needs heroin money..." or something like that then i saw the gun and he shot DBD right in the head... when DBD went down he kept shooting... then he turned around for bobzilla then vinnie...""

i was just watching a video of pantera and zakk wylde playing together at ozzfest.....heavy duty stuff......although i didn`t particularly get into pantera this is very bad news.....very bad indeed... r.i.p.

wow that sucks. While I was never a big fan of Pantera, I always thought Dimebag was a pretty talented guitarist, and it sounds like a really f'd up way to check outta here.

most lately i have come to appreciate the quite excellent recreation he had done of Sabbath's Planet Caravan...

Lead me from death to life,

from falsehood to truth.

Lead me from despair to hope,

from fear to trust.

Lead me from hate to love,

from war to peace.

Let peace fill our hearts, our world, our universe.

What a nut case and the scary thing is we seem to forget the world is full of these fuck ups and there is nothing we can do to stop them.

Really scary but you just have to let life go on.

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
