ex-Pantera Gitarrist...
...Dimebag Darrell erschossen!
In der Nacht von Mittwoch zu Donnerstag, 9.12. kurz nach 22 Uhr Ortszeit wurden in Columus im US-Bundesstaat Ohio der ex-PANTERA Gitarrist Dimebag Darrell, ein weiteres Mitglied seiner Band DAMAGEPLAN, sowie zwei weitere Menschen von einem anscheinend gestörten Mann erschossen. Der Mann, der sich Berichten zufolge als "Sean" ausgab, stürmte mit einer Pistole auf die Bühne und schoss gezielt auf die Band. Als er nach mehreren Schüssen auch in das Publikum zielte, wurde er von einem anwesenden Polizisten erschossen. Von den zwei überlebenden Opfer ist eines schwerverletzt, das andere ausser Lebensgefahr. Wer genau das andere Todesopfer in der Band ist, wurde noch nicht bekanntgegeben. Gerüchten zufolge könnte es sich um Vinnie Paul, ebenfalls ex-PANTERA handeln. (JF)

I've known them for 16 years. He wasn't just a guitarist, he was a friend.
One of the nicest people I've met. Here is what I have been able to
ascertain. Realize I could be wrong on some of this, but most of it is
gospel.

1) Daryl is dead. We all know this.
2) Vinnie is fine (I have confirmed this)
3) A bassist from the opening band tried to shield Daryl and was shot. I do
not know his condition, but I imagine critical.
4) Fans were shot
5) The other member dead is believed to be Pat Lachman. This has not been
confirmed, but I have this on very good sources, but it is VERY late for any
of us who know anyone to get any info.
6) Dime was taken to Riverside Hospital (DON'T CALL THERE!)
7) A bouncer was shot in the shoulder.
8 ) Someone was shot in the thigh, I believe this to be the bassist
involved, but at point blank range, this may be critical.
9) Three are dead (at this writing) one being the shooter. One is Daryl, I
am nearly 95% sure the other is Pat.
10) The shooter shot at Vince, but he crawled away on the floor and hit the
deck (and you would too so no bullshit posts)
11) The death toll is now at 5
12) FOr those of you arguing about stupid ####, it was a UNIFORMED POLICE
OFFICER who snuck in the back and shot the gunman. The cops received the
call at 10:18
13) Mitch was working. He is okay.
14) A Hammer Strength Sec guard was shot
15) The other confirmed dead is a security guard (not the above)
16) There are now 5 confirmed dead.

This is all I know, and all anyone will probably know until morning. Peace
be with you all.

ok, the joke went a little too far. We did all this just to see who our true fans were, and I think we can now say we have some pretty loyal fans, and some pretty scummy people on this earth. Dime Bag isn't dead, no-one got hurt. It was a publicity stunt (which worked fairly well I must add) Please no harsh feelings against the band, or against the fans.

Dime bag is going to be on MTV's breaking news at 7:00 this morning letting everyone in on the incident. Please don't panic, but please, keep spreading the rumors and gossip, we need this thing to get so completely huge that everyone out there will hear the name "Damage Plan"
