Hardly, the only people praising him were pantera/damageplan fanboys and metal jocks. No one else gave a crap, now that hes dead hes being elevated to Hendrix status.

:laughing:

sad but true..not in my eyes though

Thats how Grammar is spelt in Britain...its like colour and color. You yanks were just too lazy to stick to standard English.

spelling obviously isnt my priority on these boards, sure i could use spell check but why the fuck bother? im not gettin paid for this shit.

I ain't concernin' with abybody but the fans. F*ck the posers, they ain't real to themselves so they ain't real to me, there for they don't exist.
i speak American, f*ck English.

:laughing: Best post ever.

dude, was just pointing out...no need to get angry

no anger here :cool:

He was always very popular in the metal community.... Now because of his death many non-metal fans know who he is, giving them the illusion that Dimebag only got popular because he died.

I'd never heard of the guy until he died. Of course, I'm an old fart, so there are a lot of people in the music world I've never heard of.

Getting back to the original topic, I don't recall Ted Nugent dumping on the guy's guitar playing, just his lifestyle. It's not like he was singling the guy out. I've been a Ted Nugent fan for 30 years, and have seen him live several times. He has always had this stance on drug and alcohol use. He didn't just come up with this since this Dimebag guy got killed.

The only thing, musically, I read in the original post, was that he didn't like their (Pantera's) version of Cat Scratch Fever. He's the man who wrote it and recorded it, so I suppose he's entitled to his opinion.

And my opinion is, Cat Scratch Fever is one of Nugent's absolute worst songs ever.
