Dimebag Darryl gone (shot)?

[copperhead]

I just heard on the radio this morning that a gunman shot and killed Damage Plan's "Dimebag" Darryl (formerly of Pantera) on stage last night. Others were shot as well. I can't find anything on the news as of yet. I think they were playing near Flint, Michigan. Anyone hear about it?

EDIT: Just heard that it was Columbus, OH. Four people killed.

5 killed...Darryl, 2 concert goers, the gunman and head of security Mayhem. Sucks. Saw Pantera a bunch of years ago, awesome show, Darryl was an incredible guitar player. Heard rumors that the shooter was Anselmo, that was on some message board last night.

I heard about it on my way into work this morning. Definitely sucks. Pantera was one of those bands that never lost integrity.

Yeah that sucks! I seen them (pantera) years ago when they first started playing. The guy must have thought he was at a rap show or something.

 

[GSequoia]

That's nuts.

Chalk up another band that I wanted to see but never did...

They've been talking about it all day here on the radio. Listeners have been calling in all day. Some were there, and others where just expressing their condolences. Crazy stuff, I can't believe someone would actually do that!! I been listening to Pantera for a long time too, really sucks this had to happen.

Any word on the motive?

The Police Dept. gave a statement this morning, and they had not a clue as to what this guys motive was. No note or anything like that, just pure rage.

Go figure... Another latino with a gun

Last I heard they're still trying to find out why, atleast the shooter got what he deserved.

what happened to the shooter

 

[bshaw]

Shot in the face with a shotgun, dead when he hit the floor. Police officer took him out after a hostage got away from the guy.

 

[bjoehandley]

Yup, and it looked like the people in the crowd weren't complaining about the cop's use of a gun either, this one guy said he just came in and "did his job" while making his fingers look like a gun and waving that same hand around a little for the camera.
