He really was a beautiful person. I read in 'Guitar Player' how he said that guitar always sounds good to him, no matter how well or bad it's played. RIP. 112875@blogcritics.org Fri, 28 Jan 2005 20:43:29 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/12/09/195501.php#comment-105081 Moments like this people are usually concerned with 'I', but this time it is someone else that we should be conserned with and that is DIME! Dime was such an insperation to all of us. So much infact that we have taken timeout of our day to show our appreciation and respect for the style of life that he shared with us through his guitar palying. Dime in my opinon made Metal as popular as it is. He continues to help me trough my struggles and he was always ture to himself. A down to earth and mellow person! Rest In PEACE DARRELL 'DIMEBAG' ABBOTT! This jay is for you my friend! 105081@blogcritics.org Wed, 22 Dec 2004 17:03:21 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/12/09/195501.php#comment-104961 there is nothing i can say in words or writing to explain how fucked up it was to hear that my idol dimebag darrell had been shot, my heart goes out to his friends and family...metal will never be the same, RIP darrell may us fellow musicians pay respect to the greatest........ 104961@blogcritics.org Wed, 22 Dec 2004 01:21:15 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/12/09/195501.php#comment-104473 I would just like to pay my respects to the greatest metal guitarist ever. (in whatever way I can) And would also like to say that I was at the show when Dimebag was killed. Front row, center. and it was the most tragic event of my life. I'll never forget standing about 3 feet away from dimebag as he lay on the floor of the pit at the Al Rosa Villa as I asked myself "why did this happen". As i stared in disbelief. I couldn't sleep for days and still can't believe what happened. Dimebag will never be forgotten. 104473@blogcritics.org Mon, 20 Dec 2004 00:25:44 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/12/09/195501.php#comment-103869 dimebag darrell was amazing talent...i met him on the cowboys from hell tour here in L.A.
