A Poem For Dime....
In Arlington Texas
A Legend was made
An extreme metal icon
That never will fade
With a Dean in his hand
And a gut full of beer
A master of Metal
And a Brother so dear
A Cowboy from Hell
Reinvented guitar
And touched endless hearts
Both near and far
With a beard colored red
And a smile on his face
He is now held up high
In God's holy grace
The Heavy Metal world
Will always remember
The guitar god who left us
On the eighth of December
Dime was a Legend
And a hero to most
So I raise my drink
And offer a toast
To the man who never
knew the word "quit"
And never released a song
That wasn't the "shit"
I'll try not to cry
When I think of you
And all the hard times
Your tunes got me through
Instead I will learn
From your legacy
And be the best damn guitarist
That I can be
RIP DIME

If I could find you and kick your ass,
I damn well would.
Just because your poems' about Dime
dosen't mean it's any good,
You may think it's beautiful,
I think it's crap
It is toilet paper to wipe Dimebag's ass.
Phil made music with Dime that you love,
So you fuckin owe'um
He had more "heart for Dime"
than you have crappy poems
Me and Phil Anselmo will see you in hell mother fucker.

ok..... phil needs to shut his fucking mouth. if it wasnt for dime and the rest of pantera he would have never become the vocals to pantera. god i wish the guy that shot gale would have sliced his fucking head off. and i think that the security at the concert could have been a WHOLE lot better. i blame the club that they went to for having the sissy ass security and not being able to stop that mother fucker gale. and metallica never died man.
FUCK NATHAN GALE!!
RIP DIMEBAG DARRELL!!

All I have to say is dimebag was the coolest mother fucker that ever shreaded the face of the earth, He had a heart of gold and NEVER treated any one wrong he treated every one like a brother i had my very first taste of booze back stage with dime ( a double of 7 and coke )no shit. It's sad to say but dimebag would have treated Nathan Gale the same way if he met him in in a previous time i'll end by saying i'm just glad officer Niggermire blew N.G.'s fucking head off with a 12 guage BOOM !!!!! RIP Darrell Abbot.

Fuckin bunch of judgemental cocksockers. Fuckin lay off of Phil. Men fight sometimes you bunch of sniveling bitches. It's a tragedy Dime got killed by some whacked out jarhead marine, but it's hardly Anselmo's fault. You make it sound like the rest of Pantera never said shit about it. That either makes you uninformed of full of shit. Either way, no matter how bad a bro pisses you off, you don't wanna see him get killed cause of it. Seriously, take a step back and think for a second. what if the last fight you had with a friend were the last words you spoke to him.

I grew up listening to Pantera and it was my favorite band back in those days. I'm 30 years old and only today knew that Dimebag Abbott has died in that so tragic way 2 years ago. It was a shock to me. And a bigger shock how I let myself away from my teenager's soundtrack of life that was Pantera to me.
We cannot blame Anselmo for what happenned. Sure, he was a prick saying what he said in the media but I'm sure that he swallowed all of his words in the moment he knew dime was dead. The one we should blame is dead too, crazy fuck, cocksucker, asslicker Nathan Gale. Let's put an end to this animosity towards P.Anselmo or others just to try to find a culprit in this tragic and mind-blowing reality.
Thanx for existing Pantera when we needed you the most.

THE ONLY BEAUTY THAT CAN COME FROM LOOSING A HERO,IS THAT WHEN HE PARTED,HE BECAME A LEGEND.THE MUSIC CREATED BY HIM IS NOW A PART OF HISTORY AND WILL BE AROUND LONGER THAN YOU AND I.WE HAD THE HONOR OF SEEING HIM WITH OUR OWN EYES AND FEELING THE MUSIC IN OUR SOULS.WE ACTUALLY LIVED WHEN HE LIVED AND COULD ALL BE A PART OF IT.IT'S SAD TO THINK THAT HE WILL NEVER KNOW HOW MANY LIVES HE BLESSED BY COMING THROUGH THAT SPEAKER.HOW MANY PEOPLE HE CONTINUES TO TOUCH EVEN NOW AFTER HIS DEPARTURE.ONLY LEGENDS HAVE THE POWER TO FILL THAT VOID OF NOSTALGIA.THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER,REST IN PEACE OUR BROTHER. WE LOVE YOU DIME!

ok Phil is being a jerk here cause he's just pissed off.but I don't see why everyone blames Phil for dimes death he didn't do it.phil didn't say someone go shoot dime or anthing.phil shouldn't of said what he said but people say things like that everyday about people they know when there mad.I miss dime as much as anyone he was a great guy but its not Phil fault.
289 - Ewan
Fuck all you small brained fucks!! Phil was not responsible for Dimes death!! Do you honestly beleive that phil, Who loved Dime as a brother for seventeen years, would, in anyway, have meant to provoke that fucking scumbag into shooting him??
No he fucking didnt!! And he made it obvious to the world how devastated he was at Dimes death...
All You Anselmo Haters Are Cocksuckers!!
And For the record, Superjoint Ritual And Down fucking Rule!!!!
R.I.P Brother Dime!!!
