Dimebag Darrel killed in Columbus!

Damn... every concert I've been to you get a good patdown before you can enter. How does someone sneak a gun in?

I went to see Primus this summer at the Newport Music Hall. I was pretty drunk by the time we went in. I was still shocked that I didn't get patted down walking into the place. I suspect people now will be getting wanded before they get into a concert in Columbus.

Its sad but a simple wand could have saved the lives of 5 people.
I hope they do install metal detectors and crap like, too many nut jobs out there.

Chaos will ensue. Excuse me sir. Could you remove all 50 of your piercings, your rhinestone dog collar, your chains, and while your at it, do you have any weapons on your person?

The gunman forced his way in through the stage door. This is from the Columbus Dispatch.


About 400 people were watching Damageplan, a national act that includes former members of the band Pantera, when a man forced his way in through the back door, got past a security guard and walked onstage, witnesses said.

"He came in from stage left and pointed a gun at Dimebag from about 15 feet away," said Tim Bryant, 24, of the Northeast Side, who was watching from the front row. "I thought he was a roadie, then I saw Dimebag fall and blood shoot out.

"He was after him and anyone who tried to stop it got shot," Bryant said.

The gunman then shot Abbott point-blank before turning his gun on other band members and at least one club employee, Bryant said. Then the man stopped and reloaded as concert-goers ran for the doors.
