First off, the events that took place today (12/09/04) have shocked most of us who have been moved or inspired by Dimebag's musical prowess. My stomach sank and I felt ill throughout my body. I cannot believe that you are gone and me like so many others will miss that Godly sound that gave Metal a bright beacon.

This coward, mother fucking, piece of shit, prick bastard that stole you almost got his just deserve. The thought of having you disarmed and thrown to the crowd, I find an entertaining thought. To see your limbs torn from your body, bones breaking under the angry crowd, this is the death you should have gotten, instead you were saved by a police officer who shot you dead. This goes out to that pussy and worthless piece of shit who had to use a gun to sort out his issues!! Burn in Hell fuck face!!! This goes out to any cunt who doesn't have the balls and requires a gun. I miss a good one on one fist exchange. There is no reason to be politically correct as this is the downfall in a society where criminals get to play video games!!!

I don't want this anger to overtake what ultimately is one of the saddest days. From the passing of Chuck Schuldiner and Criss Oliva, you are another great loss in the chapter of Heavy Metal. This was no way for a person of your Greatness to go.

God Bless you my friend. A heartfelt condolence goes out to Vinnie and the family, our hearts are with you as with so many i'm sure.
