Metal World Shaken by Loss

I'm sure you've heard by now, but if not:

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6683479/
Ex-Pantera & DamagePlan Guitarist "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott is among four dead at a Columbus, Ohio club shooting.

Mention his name or those bands to any metal fan, and you'll receive nothing but great comments about him as a person, or metal musical talent.  I never met him personally, but saw him in person TONS OF TIMES at Dallas Stars home games - as he was a huge hockey fan

My condolences to all the familes who lost loved ones last night.

Rest In Peace, Dimebag.

UPDATE:  http://www.nbc4i.com/news/3983630/detail.html is reporting that another Damageplan band member was also shot and killed.  More information when I hear of it.  Hate & Violence sucks....

The other member was "Mayhem" a bodyguard.  Their drumtech was injured but not killed.
