Hah! Saw that movie two days ago. Ok enough, I guess (sorry for going off topic Laughing

).
But still, it's not such a bad thing taking a moment to remember a great musician.

You know spec... if he doesn't like their music, they can go die. He hates Ozzy and Dimebag period. It's sad but he's entitled to his opinion.

He left an impression on people and he had a lot of fans that care. People still talk about Chuck Schuldiner too but Pantera was a houshold name.

I'm sort of with Spec in this.

I don't like Pantera, never have. Just not my cup of tea.

But the passing of a young(ish) person because of a random, act of violence is still tragic IMO.

However, is Dime's passing more tragic than Criss Oliva's in 1993? Why did I not see any threads back in October memorializing the 15th anniversary of his death at the hands of a drunk driver?
(if there was one, I missed it).

He was in my "Everybody cool is dead" thread, if that counts.

Last year we had one. I remember listening to my favorite Savatge songs in his honor. I've made no bones about how I feel about his death. IMO, he was one of the best, and my favorite, guitarists of all time.

Ditto.

It just seems to me the Dimebag fans outnumber the Oliva fans and that irks me.

I was extremely irked that Curt Cobain gets more recognition than both put together. But I figure that as long as us faithful few keep Criss in memory than thats all that counts.

Yeah, IMO, Kurt is soooooo overrated. Sure his band ushered in the grunge era but where is that era now?

And Kurt took his life by his own hand which to me is far less tragic than the deaths of Criss and Dime who were killed by other people.
