Today is the 5 year anniversary of the death of one of the best metal guitarists ever. He died a horrible death but will always be remembered as a great guy and an influential guitarist.
I'm headed home now to drink a couple Black Tooth Grins in his honor. CFH!

I watched my Vulgar Videos last night. If you haven't seen em and your a fan, definitely check them out.
At one of the live shows, Dime throws a 12 or 16 oz dixie cup full of beer to a dude about 30 yards away from the stage... and the guy catches it... and drinks it.
Just plain awesome and totally metal.
EDIT:
Notice he's playing all these thru a tiny practice amp hanging around his neck in the first part.

As far as I know, yes. That, and his nickname was "Diamond" when they were in their glam-metal stages, so he needed to change it...
He was referred as "Diamond" on Cowboys, but changed it to "Dimebag" right before Vulgar was released. At least he didn't go with the one name thing like Rex did. Actually, now that I think about it...Phil Anselmo was the only member of Pantera who used his real full name.
I know this video has nothing to do with Dime, but I bet he would appreciate it. I stumbled upon this video while looking for DB solos and I had to share it. This guy is amazing on bass...
