It went too far

Concerts have been increasingly violent, especially ones where heavier music is played. It is an epidemic in San Antonio where guys that go down into that circle and start throwing fists all in the name of a good time, used to be called moshing. However it seems that these people are just interested in seeing how hard they can punch someone else in the mouth to the point it is an all out fight. That is understandable to a certain extent, you chose to go down there and it is not surprising when a fight does break out cause one guy got hit by some one else.

Wednesday night up in Ohio it reached a new level, when a concert goer goes and kills one of the most recognizable metal guitarists around. Dimebag Darrel was killed at his gig last night by what I will call a former fan, who was allegedly accusing Dimebag of breaking up Pantera. Guess that guy never heard of a reunion or anything - did he feel that attached to the band? Their last album was deplorable, and it was probably better that they do their side thing.

I also heard that it was the same day John Lennon was killed by a crazed fan in New York, but I don't think that guy drew many parallels to Lennon's shooter.

Oh, and I gotta say T-Mac went off last night. 4 three point shots in the final 33 seconds of the game, one of them was a 4 point play. Sum all that up and you get a Rocket victory by one at the buzzer thanks to one of those. Very Reggie Miller-esque.
