I have been in some terrible bands. But at least we knew that we were playing the same fucking song, in the same key, and at the same goddamn tempo.
And I've been on stage with Pantera. Not as a musician, but as a fan, stage diving. I almost broke my elbow.
We used to have the sound guy play Cemetery Gates right before we went on stage to get us pumped up.

You have lived a dream I will never experience. Sadly, it took Dime getting shot for me to hear about these guys back in 04.
Did you catch the vulgar tour or driven tour?

They used to play the Backroom in Austin all the time (The same bar my bands played at all the time). It was right after cowboys from hell came out, right before they got huge. I watched Phil beat the shit out of somebody while he was singing!

Was that the story Rex wrote about? He said there was a time in the early days when another band was heckling him. So he took them outside and beat up the whole band by himself.

Ha ha! No that was probably when Phil still had hair and they looked kind of glammy!
When I first read your response, I freaked the fuck out for a second! My best friend/guitar players' name is Rex! He was at those shows when they used to play at the backroom. Then I realized oh, yeah, he's talking about the bass player!
