Man, i was away from the world for a few days and this happens. this is the first time I'm hearing about this, this is sick. Why in gods name would someone wanna kill Pantera (the guy wanted to kill the whole band as far as I understood)!?
...
well I found myself an answer to that...i think...don't take my word for it but I read that the guy (Nathan Gale) claimed that Pantera stole his lyrics and that's why he wanted them dead. Sick sick man!
I found a shitload of information here: http://www-personal.umd.umich.edu/%7Ealfieii/pantera/news.htm
for anyone who wanted the whole picture.
RIP Dimebag Darrell Abbott
