By the time anyone reads my response, shrooms and weed will be legal in most states and they could consume on camera without violating youtube tos; any clips that have titties, coke, tittie fucking, et al, probably need to go to pornhub or ello. Did you know myspace is still the fuck alive? Yeah, no shit bruh.
I took lessons from him at rainbow music too . Yep in downtown Mansfield . He had me take over his lessons in Mansfield after he went to C&S in Arlington .
zach smith I actually know the person he’s teaching in this. Nick Bowcott. He was telling me Dime didn’t want to record, so they spent the whole week together and on the last day they recorded the video. But Dime was telling nick, dude I just wanna hang out with you. But they had to record so they did.
I listen to Dime’s music just about everyday , but for some reason, this morning , watching this video , I feel especially sad that he’s not around anymore. WTF man... it’s a cold world.
Little children have been ripped to shreds in countless pointless wars, cancer, famine etc. and it took the passing of a guitarist for you to realize that the world is cold? Damn
I used to religiously listen to something from those 4 almost daily, was always either Phil’s one of many side projects, or like Pantera, damageplan. Down, Etc - always was jamming those guys even got a few tats for RIPDIME and Pantera, down. Etc was a huge part of my life growing up 14 for RTS! Now it’s different…still love it all and Listen to a lot just Cannot help yet feel sad when head much of the music now. Was 18 when he left us all it was a rough day skipped school drank some whiskey that weekend w a friend too damn
He really was as down to earth as it gets. An interviewer asked him if he was too good to play the thrash genre and his reply was “ actually I think I’m just barely good enough to play thrash”… crazy
saw pantera, slayer, static x, scrape, and morbid angel when i was 14. first concert. dime took all of thr picks left when they were done from his mic stand, tossed em in a black tooth and dumped it on me and my buddies. still have the pick. says "the steel has been reinvented" i fuckin love dimebag, always will
Absolutely man.. Dude had such positive energy and life in him, it just still kinda feels like he's around even though it's been nearly 12 yrs. I got into Pantera young when I came across my dad's cds.. I always wanted to see them live badly, but wasn't old enough before they split. My first concerts were Primus, Ozzfest, & the Jager Music Tour (Killswitch, Mastodon, Slayer) in 04; since Pantera split I wanted to see Damageplan even though I wasn't as big on them as Pantera. Then I found out the morning of the 9th before school that he was killed, and was devastated. My biggest influence learning/playing guitar was gone, and I'd never see him perform live. And it just was hard to believe knowing how good of a dude he was by watching vids of him at cd releases, signings, watching Pantera's vulgar home videos countless times, etc. Won't keep rambling haha but it's a damn shame that scumbag pointlessly killed such a great dude & 3 others, plus those who witnessed it and live with that forever. Famous people as fun loving & down to earth as Dime are rare, can't think of anyone since him who's as loyal to fans and just loved people in general.
+halcyon1871 I can't believe you responded to one of my videos :) Thanks man , you are one of the main reasons i started learning Pantera on guitar , cause it's pretty damn hard , but you made it look really really easy
not trying to start shit but, personally I have to tune to a live performance attack tuning, not a pussying around tuning where the strings are cold or not got finger sweat conditions. Kahler's are the shit for quick microtuner adjustments.
per one's personal style, finger strength, strung outness on drugs, drunkeness. + maybe the neck needs a fret dressing/job. for real, does that explain it a little better? it's like legato,
I've always liked how off-the-cuff and innovative Dime's riffs were. Very few guitarists are carrying on the tradition of writing solid, catchy, Sabbath-esque riffs. The way he combines single-note riffs, muting, whammy bar dips, chord slides, string bends, harmonics, etc. -- it all comes together to create some great, powerhouse riffs. Makes me wonder how much more great music Dime would have put out if he were still alive today.
6672rock I would name Dime the #1 metal guitarist of all time any day of the week. He was an original, like EVH.... As soon as you hear him playing anything you know instantly it's him because like EVH he can only sound like himself no matter what song it is. Another thing about him.... He was a really humble guy and honestly wanted others to benefit from anything at all he could teach. I had the opportunity to talk with him during the VDOP tour and he was all too happy to show you stuff and he even let me try it on his own guitar that he had.
Uhh. Pretty sure those 2 good albums he did were followed up by quite a few cds that were flops. Like megadeth recovered after one bad cd. Bands who make 4 bad cds in a row then members go on to make however many shitty cds in bands like damageplan aren't making any new good ever again.

@@baird2100 please explain what the fuck an "attack tuning" is. Weird how in my 13 years of guitar I've never once heard of "live attack tuning for sweaty fingers"
@@IamEskimoPie i once saw a clip where a guy explains how you tune the guitar the way you play it, so if you hit the string more aggressive when you play, that's the way you hit them when you tune. a lot of people pluck gently when tuning, but hit hard when they play and it can actually cause the guitar to be slightly out of tune because of the dynamic. that mostly wouldn't be an issue on standard tuning but since pantera already uses a quarter step down tuning, that small difference can be felt more if you really wanna be accurate. Now i don't know if the OP was referring to that or something else... But that's the only thing i can think of. I actually tried it out first time i saw that clip and the tuner does show a slightly different value when hitting the note harder or softer.
the one thing I love about this video is look at the things that went "wrong" during recording and it's still posted... he doesn't care lol.. the life that was in this dude was amazing. no other person or guitarist like him and there never will be
Its amazing how he takes a nice riff and turns it into an even better monstrous dime riff with slides, harmonics, bends, and a bit of whammy. Getcha pull!!
Pretty wholesome video. No over production nonsense. No ego. Just a down to earth "one on one lesson" feeling in this vid. Hearing the buzz of the amp relates to everyone lol. Miss this guy.
Best 17 minutes I've spent on you tube all time. Dime is the realist and best to every shred on the guitar. We all miss and love you my friend. RIP DLA
The amp crapping out is from dirty corroded contacts; for exaple, the fx loop contact points. Normally, a plug that hasn't been plugged in a while needs the patina penetrated. Or just bust the rust off with some wiggle.
I was never a huge Pantera fan but I respect Dimebag to the utmost. I honestly respect him even more now after watching this because it makes us realize that no matter how much of a guitar God any one can be, we are all still human. The guy playing on a fucked-up practice amp reminds me of myself LOL... watching him demonstrate his riffs and even make mistakes but just keeps going. His advice about taking a riff that sounds good and going with it honestly makes me feel better because I spend so much time thinking about music theory... there is so many times when I come up with something only to shoot it down because it doesn't fit within a certain "pattern" or key.... watching a video and getting a private lesson like this... it's probably the most Sage advice I have ever came across...
It gave me chills when Dime locked in with his brother on slow breakdown. Vinnie and Dime had perfect rhythm and when the two locked in it was amazing. I love when Dime would stand in front of Vinnie when This Love got to the slow breakdown. Vinnie and Dime are revolutionary. I was reading an interview from Drummer World where Vinnie talks about when Dime heard the tom groove to Primal Concrete Sledge. Dime's guitar was very much drum based. I miss their music bond. Dime and Vinnie had a spiritual bond that flowed into Pantera's music. I will always love to watch Pantera's concerts on TH-cam. R.I.P Dime.
God Dime how I miss you. Revolution was your name my friend. Wish you were around I so enjoyed watching this. Beer, guitar, amp breaking, chill and good times. Love ya man. RIP we remember you and love you buddy.
Dime was the very last person to ever deserve to go out the way he did. I'm only 16 years old but I've been listening to Dimes songs my whole life through my dad. I miss Dime like a best friend
Dimebag probably did with the rest of us do ...when you live in a house with no ground electrical outlets.. and then you just break the ground off the plug so you can jam
Too much high gain pre amp noise bleeding though the speakers . And Nice to know that shit happens when playing , even to a amazing musician , RIP DIME
Grady wasn't there to flip his noise gate on and off, so he didn't use one...understandable because he was just riffing around and not recording or performing. Dime and Grady were a team.
I always say when you have nothing to plug into we appreciate whatever we can plug into either it be a shit first act 2 watt amp and a metal zone pedal or a all tube Marshall. Power up and let it ride brothas... cheers.
@kennethnick3213 a crazy "fan" killed him onstage in Ohio in 2004 while he was playing with his new band Damageplan...guy ran up onstage, held him from behind in shot him in the head...worst day ever!!! Some say because Pantera broke up...Police say he was delusional and blamed Pantera for stealing his lyrics. Now we are deprived of the beautiful soul known as Dime!!! You can find the videos on TH-cam of that fateful day.
2023 and I'm watching this video with a broken heart that I'll never be able to see my favorite guitarist again! Dime was a good person and is with our LORD GOD NOW!
This video makes me so fucking sad in many ways. I see a guitar god who wrote some of the best heavy riffs ever and was takin from us, ( this video is after they broke up ) then I see a man who misses his band. His girlfriend said the breakup w Phil was hard on him. R.I.P. Dime you'll always live on
Miss you so much brother. Rest in peace forever Dime and Vinny. Pantera literally changed my life the first time I heard cemetery gates and I still do Pantera covers in my set with my band.
So many talented performers are no longer with us. A list that is impossible to type, without criminally forgetting some. Of them all....I miss this dude the most. Down to earth, approachable, human. Never acted better than anyone else...just did his thing and enjoyed life. Wherever he went when he left this world, is where I wanna go.
got to see Pantera 13 times some of the best shows I ever seen.miss him so much.what a real dude he was.never had an attitude or bad thing to say about anything.R.I.P dime miss you brother
Fuck, he was the heaviest, bluesiest player ever lived!! Thank god we were blessed with Dimebag and he gave us the baddest fuckin riffs..RIP DIME....Loved his 'amp repair', just wrap the side of it, LOL
I have goosebumps from the harmonics and bends that he does... He makes it look so easy... the amp cant keep up with his greatness!! Haha just another day that the office for him. Truly the best guitar player I was fortunate enough to see in concert!
I was just thinking about that. It's hard to watch the PANTERA home videos. It's sad seeing Dime goofing off but at the same time it's some of the funniest shit I've ever seen.
Yeah it does hurt man. He was so down to earth and normal. Just like a regular dude off the street. Didn’t let the fame go to his head. Remembered where he came from.
Practicing some of his lead and it totally works. Learn a few signature styles and we make our own style as Dime no doubt did. I got most of my influence from Iommi and adding Dimes influence absolutely enhances it perfectly.
Thank you dime for all kickass riffs and music, you were one of a kind and will never be forgotten, i miss you damnit! When i first heard pantera i know it was someting special, i listened to pantera albums every day!
I’m from Dallas and to have him and SRV buried in our backyard breaks my heart but also we’re honored they grew up here. RIP to both. Also his amp repair skills are incredible lol. What a treasure this man was
I grew up in Pantego. 817, baby! His house is a mile from where I grew up. I've partied at that house, and Vince's. We would see Dime at the Tom Thumb at Bowen Rd. and Park Row all the time. And I saw him a couple times at the 7-11 at 303 and Park Springs. He was always buying Coors Light lol.
Thank you, i had this video saved in my favorites since 10 years ago. Lately i been missing Dimebag more than usual, and it makes me happy watching his live performances y and home videos. 🤘🥹🤘
Most down to earth musician I have ever had the privilege to see perform. I thought Pantera was alright hearing them on their albums. Once I went to a show and saw Dime perform live I was hooked. Never looked back. RIP Dime thanks for everything
@@swimssnakeyadventures9127 Actually he's nowhere remotely close to EVH but nobody is . The true undisputed King , the most famous guitarists or all time list EVH as their # 1 influence including Paul Gilbert , Jason Becker, Nuno , michael Schenker to name just a few . Darrell is just one of the millions who was massively influenced by EVH . Randy Rhoads adored EVH , listen to what Rudy Sarzo said: GW: What were Randy’s main influences? Sarzo: His influences were late-’60s, early-’70s English rock guitar players. He didn’t have any R&B influence or anything, so it’s totally English. And classical music because of his schooling. His mother had a lot to do with that, teaching him and influencing him with classical music. So by the time he got to England, he was not like a typical American guitar player who had had the influence of R&B music and country music, because he’d never played that. GW: Were there any particular players he admired? Sarzzo: Yeah, let me tell you who they were. He really admired Gary Moore and Eddie Van Halen. Those were his top two guys he really, really admired. Nobody comes remotely close to EVH's rhythm and swing , NOBODY. Listen to what Pat Metheny said: “ i think i've talked about how much i like allan in here before (you can do a search on his name).... but eddie, i don't think i have. i really think he is a great player and someone i always enjoy hearing. there was a time i went to vh shows as much as possible just to check him out. one time, i got to go back before a show and hear him warm up - which was absolutely mind blowing - he played more incredible music in that 30 minutes of warmup time than he did in the all the vh "shows" that i heard rolled together. he is so creative - it would be great to hear him expand into other areas - especially now that "heavy metal" is about as dead as it could possibly be (who would have thought that that would happen in 1984?) eddie is more like a jazz guy anyway to me - he is always searching for sounds and ideas it seems.” Pat Metheny
Watching this is going to make me smile for the rest of the week. I honestly think that is one of the coolest guitars ever made. The southern cross is a beauty and a beast. RIP Dime! Getcha pull!!!
some good laughs in this, always nice to see a Dime vid i havent seen before. (answers phone) "and you couldnt get in could ya, ha ha" LOL,cheers to Dime!
Its gonna be 11 years next month and i still cant believe he's gone. He seemed so much like a cool guy. Most down to earth et nicest guy in metal got shot on stage... What a fucking ironic piece of shit of a story.. sad sad sad
To this day Everytime I see him, even in videos I've seen thousands of times. . I can't help but feel some kinda way.... Blown away at the ease he plays with, saddened by the Loss and all the amazing riffs and solos were missing out on... Most of all it still didn't feel real.... Your loved and missed to this day and forever more DIMEBAG DARRELL!
Back stage passes in 97' & 98' when they toured with White Zombie & Deftones then Ozzfest 98'..then with Damageplan on the family values tour..Awesome memories...R.i.P Dime & Big Vin🕊🥃🥃 #Blacktooth🍻🍻
Geezer. I shure miss you D. Saw my first show n ah year later you were gone. I Got hooked and then cheated. I pray you are shredding in thee afterlife and are at peace. You were one of ah kind. And kept it 100% about the music.
Can totally hear Eddie Van Halens influence. Awesome. Dime has to be One of the best players in the world . Such a loss. Especially how humble he was and all around a nice guy.
Life changing, never seen this before. Best video I have watched in Decades!!! Every single word that came out I actually loved more than the lesson. I literally felt like I was hanging out in his house with him. Thank you for posting !!
This guys is great, he reminds of many good dudes ive known over the years - good ole country boys swilling beer in their cargo shorts and metal shirt in the garage, riffing out on busted gear. He knows the Pantera stuff pretty well too.
Love it that he said in the interlude play it either way of course. And I feel like he would say the same thing with all of his music. Play the riffs how you wanna play them. As long as the notes are accurate. So sick of hearing people say that ain't how dime played it. Well, you heard the man himself say play it either way of course...
Dime and viny are hero’s to music . I’m happy there are videos like this to help me learn and feel closer to one of nicest shred heads in music history.
I did several times and he blew my mind every time. Drunk laughing doing a shot never missing a note or screwing up even improving something more amazing on the spot while screwing around
Most people suck compared to Dime lol you should check out some old footage of him at 17 playing guitar. He was incredible after only playing a few short years. I've had the pleasure of meeting him twice and both times the guy was incredibly gracious and humble. He was a good dude. Such a senseless murder. It bums me out just thinking about it
Holy fk this video is priceless for Dimebag fans. He's just like a regular guy chilling on the couch jamming like a mf burping and shit! This is AWESOME!
I feel like if dime was still alive, he would have a youtube channel

"hick bends" ...... haha!
Texas
Check it out
Texas blues.
He cracks me laughing up with what he says sometimes.
Universal Power the Texas and hick bends
Dimebonics
"Amp Repair" Smacks the crap out of it. 😂🤘🏻
Maybe Dime had the right idea. I should just drink every night and focus on my music.
hows the music workin out my brother?
same question!
Every night? I think he drank all day too
Drinking every night will only get you so far. Your family might need to own a recording studio! Music industry secret...
I tried it I gave up the guitar.
I'm so happy that one of my hero's had that shitty buzz issue with his guitar. xD
The intensity of the buzz can depend on proximity to the amp
Dimebag probably did with the rest of us do ...when you live in a house with no ground electrical outlets.. and then you just break the ground off the plug so you can jam
Too much high gain pre amp noise bleeding though the speakers . And Nice to know that shit happens when playing , even to a amazing musician , RIP DIME
Grady wasn't there to flip his noise gate on and off, so he didn't use one...understandable because he was just riffing around and not recording or performing. Dime and Grady were a team.
I always say when you have nothing to plug into we appreciate whatever we can plug into either it be a shit first act 2 watt amp and a metal zone pedal or a all tube Marshall. Power up and let it ride brothas... cheers.
It blows my mind how good his tone was. Distorted to all hell but clean as a whistle.
Dude was just one of a kind.
Everything about this video is just awesome. Dimebag- what a guy. The best guitarist with the best personality that ever lived!! R.I.P
12 years later, my heart still breaks that we lost Dime!!! The BEST GUITARIST EVER!!!
I was supposed to go to that show
How'd he die?
@kennethnick3213 a crazy "fan" killed him onstage in Ohio in 2004 while he was playing with his new band Damageplan...guy ran up onstage, held him from behind in shot him in the head...worst day ever!!! Some say because Pantera broke up...Police say he was delusional and blamed Pantera for stealing his lyrics. Now we are deprived of the beautiful soul known as Dime!!! You can find the videos on TH-cam of that fateful day.
@@darrendaj I'm soooooo glad you didn't!!!
@@Perro73 ooooooh I remember hearing about that. Didn't realize it was him
Who could hurt such a sweet soul? We didn’t deserve you Dime.
2023 and I'm watching this video with a broken heart that I'll never be able to see my favorite guitarist again! Dime was a good person and is with our LORD GOD NOW!
This video makes me so fucking sad in many ways. I see a guitar god who wrote some of the best heavy riffs ever and was takin from us, ( this video is after they broke up ) then I see a man who misses his band. His girlfriend said the breakup w Phil was hard on him. R.I.P. Dime you'll always live on
What a legend. Rip Dime & Vinnie 🤘🏼
Miss you so much brother. Rest in peace forever Dime and Vinny. Pantera literally changed my life the first time I heard cemetery gates and I still do Pantera covers in my set with my band.
So many talented performers are no longer with us. A list that is impossible to type, without criminally forgetting some. Of them all....I miss this dude the most. Down to earth, approachable, human. Never acted better than anyone else...just did his thing and enjoyed life. Wherever he went when he left this world, is where I wanna go.
Almost 14 years on and I still choked up watching him.
2018! I’m still here for you! Our KING OF GUITAR!!!
REST IN PEACE
👍😢🤝😭🙏🌐❤️🌟
By the way, RESPECT RIFF KING!!!
Still here too brother
Getchya pull
\m/ (0_0) \m/
He was so charismatic. Seemed to be a hell of a guy. RIP Dime.
"..a half-note shy 'n just bend up!"
I miss this guy so. fucking. much.
+Brandon Veracka GODDAMN RIGHT!! R.I.P. KING FUKIN DIME!!! \m/ NEVER FORGET DIME!!!!!!!!!!!
I always loved Dimes 'close enough' attitude about everything.
+Paul Phillips YEA MAN HE WAS KING!!!
+Brandon Veracka King Dime
Dime definitely made a big impression on me when I was still a kid. It's cool to see I'm not the only one!
got to see Pantera 13 times some of the best shows I ever seen.miss him so much.what a real dude he was.never had an attitude or bad thing to say about anything.R.I.P dime miss you brother
Fuck, he was the heaviest, bluesiest player ever lived!! Thank god we were blessed with Dimebag and he gave us the baddest fuckin riffs..RIP DIME....Loved his 'amp repair', just wrap the side of it, LOL
yupp man...when he's stripping the tunes like that.. you can feel the blues in all he's playing ..It's incredible..
what a guitarist
..Heaviest? ..pffffff
that's Tony Iommi.
@@kennyboy4401 ur trippin bruh
educational and funny. the world misses you dime
Farking outstanding! (As usual) the guy is half cut, giving lessons, living it and loving it! Those abbott brothers were what music is all about! 🤘👍🤘
God, for just his beautiful attitude alone he is missed immensely
Absolutely the coolest guy to ever live... and he's a damn good guitar player too
damn this guy was a great soul
I have goosebumps from the harmonics and bends that he does... He makes it look so easy... the amp cant keep up with his greatness!! Haha just another day that the office for him. Truly the best guitar player I was fortunate enough to see in concert!
Dime you'll forever be missed,thanks for the great Riffs Getcha pull
I second what Troy said bro.....
Dimebag Darrell legacy must live on thru us. I never have before, but now I am going to learn to play his AWESOME style. Starting NOW !
Well, this should help, Dimes amp settings are pre-gain 7 low 9 mid .5 high 8 and post-gain 10. \m/
Dimebag was the perfect and when I say perfect I mean perfect mix of soul and shred that has yet to be replicated to this day.
These one on one dime vids hurt to watch...for fans ? R.I.P.
I was just thinking about that. It's hard to watch the PANTERA home videos. It's sad seeing Dime goofing off but at the same time it's some of the funniest shit I've ever seen.
yes..... my heart breaks watching him. no lie
Yeah it does hurt man. He was so down to earth and normal. Just like a regular dude off the street. Didn’t let the fame go to his head. Remembered where he came from.
Practicing some of his lead and it totally works. Learn a few signature styles and we make our own style as Dime no doubt did. I got most of my influence from Iommi and adding Dimes influence absolutely enhances it perfectly.
Thank you dime for all kickass riffs and music, you were one of a kind and will never be forgotten, i miss you damnit! When i first heard pantera i know it was someting special, i listened to pantera albums every day!
I’m from Dallas and to have him and SRV buried in our backyard breaks my heart but also we’re honored they grew up here. RIP to both. Also his amp repair skills are incredible lol. What a treasure this man was
I grew up in Pantego. 817, baby! His house is a mile from where I grew up. I've partied at that house, and Vince's. We would see Dime at the Tom Thumb at Bowen Rd. and Park Row all the time. And I saw him a couple times at the 7-11 at 303 and Park Springs. He was always buying Coors Light lol.
Thank you, i had this video saved in my favorites since 10 years ago. Lately i been missing Dimebag more than usual, and it makes me happy watching his live performances y and home videos. 🤘🥹🤘
Most down to earth musician I have ever had the privilege to see perform. I thought Pantera was alright hearing them on their albums. Once I went to a show and saw Dime perform live I was hooked. Never looked back. RIP Dime thanks for everything
There will never be another guitarist quite like Dime, dude was just brilliant and is missed every single day.
Love how dimebag still seems new to me and fresh. He was before social media the good ole days.
I still think he’s the best guitarist next to EVH to EVER live
Getcha pull❤
He crushes EVH lol.
don't forget Randy
🤣🤣
@@swimssnakeyadventures9127 Actually he's nowhere remotely close to EVH but nobody is . The true undisputed King , the most famous guitarists or all time list EVH as their # 1 influence including Paul Gilbert , Jason Becker, Nuno , michael Schenker to name just a few . Darrell is just one of the millions who was massively influenced by EVH . Randy Rhoads adored EVH , listen to what Rudy Sarzo said:
GW: What were Randy’s main influences?
Sarzo: His influences were late-’60s, early-’70s English rock guitar players. He didn’t have any R&B influence or anything, so it’s totally English. And classical music because of his schooling. His mother had a lot to do with that, teaching him and influencing him with classical music. So by the time he got to England, he was not like a typical American guitar player who had had the influence of R&B music and country music, because he’d never played that.
GW: Were there any particular players he admired?
Sarzzo: Yeah, let me tell you who they were. He really admired Gary Moore and Eddie Van Halen. Those were his top two guys he really, really admired.
Nobody comes remotely close to EVH's rhythm and swing , NOBODY.
Listen to what Pat Metheny said: “ i think i've talked about how much i like allan in here before (you can do a search on his name).... but eddie, i don't think i have. i really think he is a great player and someone i always enjoy hearing. there was a time i went to vh shows as much as possible just to check him out. one time, i got to go back before a show and hear him warm up - which was absolutely mind blowing - he played more incredible music in that 30 minutes of warmup time than he did in the all the vh "shows" that i heard rolled together. he is so creative - it would be great to hear him expand into other areas - especially now that "heavy metal" is about as dead as it could possibly be (who would have thought that that would happen in 1984?) eddie is more like a jazz guy anyway to me - he is always searching for sounds and ideas it seems.”
Pat Metheny
He loved playing, he was like a little kid. Such a great player.
Watching this is going to make me smile for the rest of the week.
I honestly think that is one of the coolest guitars ever made. The southern cross is a beauty and a beast.
RIP Dime! Getcha pull!!!
from the man himself. thanks for sharing. priceless document
some good laughs in this, always nice to see a Dime vid i havent seen before. (answers phone) "and you couldnt get in could ya, ha ha" LOL,cheers to Dime!
Brings a collective tear to my eye when I realize the world will never hear him play live again🖤
Its gonna be 11 years next month and i still cant believe he's gone. He seemed so much like a cool guy. Most down to earth et nicest guy in metal got shot on stage... What a fucking ironic piece of shit of a story.. sad sad sad
Humble person..lovely person..
Super talented guitarist.
Hero of all..
Miss u dime...❤
To this day Everytime I see him, even in videos I've seen thousands of times. . I can't help but feel some kinda way.... Blown away at the ease he plays with, saddened by the Loss and all the amazing riffs and solos were missing out on... Most of all it still didn't feel real.... Your loved and missed to this day and forever more DIMEBAG DARRELL!
Back stage passes in 97' & 98' when they toured with White Zombie & Deftones then Ozzfest 98'..then with Damageplan on the family values tour..Awesome memories...R.i.P Dime & Big Vin🕊🥃🥃 #Blacktooth🍻🍻
Dime you'll always be loved. Thanks for being my guitar teacher. :)
this is the first time I have seen this video I love it when I find a new clip or anything of King Dime I have never seen!!! RIP King Dime
Hear that Texas in there son he says hahahaha you're fucking legend man stay eternal
Geezer. I shure miss you D. Saw my first show n ah year later you were gone. I Got hooked and then cheated. I pray you are shredding in thee afterlife and are at peace. You were one of ah kind. And kept it 100% about the music.
Can totally hear Eddie Van Halens influence. Awesome. Dime has to be One of the best players in the world . Such a loss. Especially how humble he was and all around a nice guy.
Life changing, never seen this before. Best video I have watched in Decades!!! Every single word that came out I actually loved more than the lesson. I literally felt like I was hanging out in his house with him. Thank you for posting !!
I've seen a million vids on youtube of dudes crankin some good shit but nothing touches dime!
This guys is great, he reminds of many good dudes ive known over the years - good ole country boys swilling beer in their cargo shorts and metal shirt in the garage, riffing out on busted gear. He knows the Pantera stuff pretty well too.
"Texas." lol hell yeah!
Love it that he said in the interlude play it either way of course. And I feel like he would say the same thing with all of his music. Play the riffs how you wanna play them. As long as the notes are accurate. So sick of hearing people say that ain't how dime played it. Well, you heard the man himself say play it either way of course...
"I lost er.... >WHACK< there it is!" This is a gold lesson in many ways!
Reminds me of when I would watch this back in the days of early TH-cam, I was around ten
14:35 Fucking hilarious, Dime takes a phone call!
Hail to the king baby!
What a band, what a guy, what a tragic loss.
Cant say i havent watched this 10 times on 5 or more channels :) \m/
Dime and viny are hero’s to music . I’m happy there are videos like this to help me learn and feel closer to one of nicest shred heads in music history.
man, he is sorely missed. wish I could see him live R.I.P Dime
I mever got to see either Pantera or Damageplan live. The 9/11 attacks saw to not seeing Pantera, Dime's death saw to not seeing Damageplan
I did several times and he blew my mind every time. Drunk laughing doing a shot never missing a note or screwing up even improving something more amazing on the spot while screwing around
How can you not love this man?
I love revelation song, my fav all time along with cowboys....
LAYUCHEBI it’s a great video to showing them as kids lol love Darrell and vinnie
I love this guy he touched my soul as a child and made want to excel at guitar. He is relaxed in his musical ability because it was just fun for him.
Thanks for the lesson Dime, you showed me how much I suck at playing guitar.
This is him after 20-25+ years of playing. I'm sure you don't actually suck.
Most people suck compared to Dime lol you should check out some old footage of him at 17 playing guitar. He was incredible after only playing a few short years. I've had the pleasure of meeting him twice and both times the guy was incredibly gracious and humble. He was a good dude. Such a senseless murder. It bums me out just thinking about it
+Dr. Emmet Brown
I'm envious because you met this great man. Thanks for sharing.
Hey man, the more you play, the better! Just take inspirations and play what you like to! That's the best way to go about it.
I love how he moves his entire body when does the bends in the main riff, thats pure feeling
This is Darrel giving us the instructions, for the future of music.
FUCKING USE IT!
Get ur portable shop light, shot out amp, styrofoam cup, phone call/taxi service brb, beer run, bootleg guitar lesson 😆 love it man God bless him \m/
Can you imagine Mr. Dime making a live video?
😭
Holy fk this video is priceless for Dimebag fans. He's just like a regular guy chilling on the couch jamming like a mf burping and shit! This is AWESOME!
