Ο σκληρός ήχος γενικότερα είναι πολύ πιο φτωχός από σήμερα, αφού έχουμε ακόμα βαριά απώλεια.
Ο Vinnie Paul έφυγε από τη ζωή σε ηλικία 54 ετών αργά το βράδυ της Παρασκευής κάτω από αδιευκρίνιστες μέχρι στιγμής συνθήκες.
Ο άνθρωπος που μαζί με τον αδελφό του, Dimebag (που δολοφονήθηκε το 2004), ίδρυσε τους Pantera αποτελούσε μία εξέχουσα μορφή του χώρου και οι συνάδελφοι του (μουσικοί) τον αποχαιρετούν μέσω των social media.
Από τον Geezer Butler και τον Dave Mustaine μέχρι τον Lars Ulrich και τον Paul Stanley, όλοι έχουν κάτι καλό να πουν για τον μεγάλο Vinnie Paul.
Vinnie…..to the man with the slickest kicks and the best vibe ALWAYS. You inspired us all, not only with your music, but with your love and hospitality. You were one in a million, and will be missed… pic.twitter.com/CTa5rWClJl
