Pawn Shop Hopping w/DIMEBAG DARRELL (From The Art of Life Podcast)

This is an excerpt from my podcast with Rev Jamie (#11). Another incredible story I got to hear since starting my podcast. I'm having way too much fun doing these. Thanks for listening.

[@musicsucks5843]

Normal people: Hey man here's some gas money for driving me around.
DIMEBAG: Hey man here's $2000 for you to drive your car into a river lol

[@GeisT22487]

How do you not go to the show after all that? lmao

[@cavemanissy1143]

I would’ve love to meet Dimebag, I’m not even a Pantera fanboy but I love his skill and style.

[@charlesjones32787]

"I ended up not going..." Somebody in the studio should have bitch slapped him for that.

[@trae1193]

I would love to meet Dimebag!!! I wish I could have seen Pantera live

[@stevenskeens7628]

Me too. I got to see him with damageplan about 3 months before he was taken away. They closed with "a new level" and "walk". It was amazing.

[@leonbowen6567]

I saw pantera in biloxi ms on the reinventing the steel tour there last tour and was blessed to see damageplan in Jackson Mississippi last minute thing got off work late but my friend insisted the promotor was rock 93.9 tickets were 93 cents I stood rite in front of dime while he was playing and he put not tossed a damageplan pick in my hand my most valuable possession because that was April 15 he got murdered December 8th same year and think I started to back out the best decision of my life I have that pick inside a plastic make shift shrine I guess you could say anyway I thank god everyday I didn't pass on that opportunity

[@redddogg2461]

Seen Pantera 3 times the best GOD DAMN BAND to ever dawn a stage. Breaking Norse’s and cheekbones in the pit when I was younger. I wouldn’t survive a pit now at my age. Miss Pantera really miss DIME and VINNY!!!

[@shredbacca]

hes my idol ever since i started playing guitar i wish i was born earlier so i could’ve possibly met or seen him live i want to be just like him soon ima be getting the dean from hell

[@mikeandmike6169]

Me too, but he's still with us, just not physically. What happened in the past happened, and there's nothing we can do about it.

[@zahnayfrefe6614]

“Hey, dimebag!”
“Hey!”
“What are doing here?”
“where playing a show here”
“Oh,that’s cool.”
This made me laugh so hard and I don’t know why?

[@stoltobot]

“I’ll give ya two thousand bucks to drive it into the river” 😂

[@Jowls2024]

Guy talking: I dont what tour it was mid, 90s
Interviewer: wow!

[@johnhotine4196]

I would have sunk my car faster than a Thanksgiving turd if brother dime was paying.

[@timothymiller737]

That's one of the Funniest Dimebag Story's I ever Fuckin heard 💯

[@joselopez6990]

Just hearing the stories and how he carried himself as a person made me wish I could have met the man at least once

[@H_I_T]

Can you make a video about relative pentatonic scales and explain more about it ? My porblem is i dont know how to play the relative scale on all the shapes if it is possible.

[@troywilliams6849]

Dude...that's freaking awesome

[@scottthomas4779]

Got invited to a Pantera show by Dimebag as a vip and...didnt...go....I'm sick

[@jeremyjames1659]

Yeah right.

[@s.f.morris7331]

[@tguitars5056]

Kool story!

[@krushgroovin7513]

Great stuff man!!

[@CamRebires]

RIP to our legends

[@jordanbyates]

He really was the best

[@rg2424]

Damn lucky

[@bearpowers]

hi, pantera fan here, but just think for a second: why asking a stranger to drive his car into the river and repay it just for the sake of doing it and buying guitars to smash etc... I think he was desperately trying to have some fun where he realized he couldn't have any. like he just couldn't enjoy "the simple things of life" anymore. like everything got boring. just my thought, not critique - loved pantera and still sorry for his tragic end.

[@musicsucks5843]

That's what it means to be an adrenaline junkie

[@willroland9811]

Darrell had fun everywhere, even trying to give away donuts...the condition you describe is easily defined...it's called adulting, and goddammit it SUCKS...

[@afonsotopa9164]

The good simple things of life, like throwing cars to rivers, hell yeah

[@billywilliams5329]

Dime like kee to have fun

[@billywilliams5329]

Even on a bad day I bet he was the one to be around Becca see he would have been the one to try to brighten things up

[@gwamusic6229]

First love you

[@user-ww3js8ci7d]

RIP Dimebag

Pays people to eat an entire cake. Now he pays people to drive cars into rivers.

[@iceWaterProductions1]

After all the driving around to buy the guitars and to not go to the show to see the plan fulfilled.

[@parkeranderson8806]

So is he the guy that dimebag thought to make a black tooth with a rhode for a day

[@robertp4634]

[@danjaraven4479]
