I was reading through the Fark comments but I couldnt find the original poster. He said that Vinnie might be ok but the lead singer, Patrick Lachman might have fallen.

Dimebag Darrell Killed

Dimebag Darrell, of Pantera legacy, was shot tonight with another member of Damageplan while performing in a Columbus, Ohio nightclub. Today is a very very sad day for heavy metal. :no:

Yeah it seems Vinnie may be ok. Somone on the Damageplan message board that knows someone that was there said Vinnie is ok and it was Dimebag and the singer. Dunno if it's true or not though. Only sure thing is Dimebag is dead. He was a metal God IMO and he'll surely be missed. Dimebag NOOOOOOO!!! RIP

Hey ass,

This person was in the ranks of guitar influential history, as already been included in the ranks right up there with Eddie Van Halen as prob metals most influential in past 10 years. Without this guitar player, many of these bands out now would never have picked up the guitar or started. Plus the fact that you should care for your own TEX, as he hailed from TX and was proud of TX.

Way to hijack the thread and turn it into a 2nd Amendment debate! :rolleyes:

That sucks. It's just crazy. It will be interesting to find out the motive behind the shootings.

This is just really depressing to me... While I thought the music of Damageplan was absolute garbage, I loved Pantera, one of my favorite bands. Its sad to see such a talented musician loose their life. Its really going to shed some light on how poorly concertgoers and the bands are protected. This has been an issue for years now that has needed attention, and hopefully something will change.

I'll really miss those guys.

I guess that is one of the reasons why most bands suck these days? I have never heard of this Dimebag fellow... Perhaps young kids should listen to some real guitar players ie Stevie Ray Vaughan so all this new crap wouldn't sound the same.

Agreed, though it's usually not as bad in Canada. I've been to a TON of gigs and they always pat u down for weapons and check your bag. Obviously they didn't do that at this concert and someone should be held accountable

    • Windows 10 quietly gets one more year of support and updates

      By matthiew · Posted

      I called it last year that they wouldn't end support when they said there would. There are too many people still on Windows 10 waiting for something better to upgrade to and 11 ain't it! The recent promises of fixing Windows 11's many problems is nice, but unless they deliver on those promises in a big way then I expect customers will still want to stick with 10.
    • Microsoft raises Xbox console prices by up to $150, discontinues 2TB version

      By qbrick · Posted

      Full ACK. I went too far adressing your post specifically. And as you said, it up to us customers as participant of the market dynamic as it happens to decide whether we spend our money on a product or not. The responsibility is to the company. In case of this price hike one could assume that MS is expecting or even starting to see a new interest in XBox hardware so they want to avoid losses per unit sold. I find it fair enough that they granted a period in which everyone interested could grab a unit for the current price (Amazon.de has a reliable stock of XBox Series X digital, which I bought last December after having sold my day one Series X a year ago). It is not that they cash up their customers starting on Monday. Cheers and let's cling to our perfectly fine hardware as long as we deem it worthy in relation to purchasing something new!
    • Apple raises MacBook and iPad prices as memory costs surge

      By matthiew · Posted

      Not surprising at all. Apple got three months worth of marketing hype with the Macbook Neo's incredible low launch price. They have sowed the idea that the Neo is the best value laptop and that idea will last for years even though the value is no longer there. They do this every five years or so with a single new product that is amazing value which distracts from the rest of their products being horrendously overpriced.
