18th Anniversary Of Dimebag Darrell's Murder

[Watson503]

Today marks 18 years since Darrell Abbott was shot and killed, along with Jeffrey Thompson, Erin Halk, and Nathan Bray.

Here's a photo of the guitar Dime was playing when he was killed - it's a Dean South Korean import. I took this from an old Guitar World I have, I've only seen the guitar photographed there and always thought it was cool to see, although sad to think of







This would be the last photo shoot Darrell did - 10/23/2004 at Elkins lake park

I remember listening to the audio of the moment ... just horrific

Yeah man, it is crazy to even think how that all went down. Little Kat Brooks trying to stop the psycho and getting shot twice and basically held hostage until Niggemeyer wasted that murderous piece of shit, all the while he's watching his friends and other shots dead. I can't imagine what that was like for Vinnie to see, either. Just horrible.
