Vinnie Paul Dead At 54
« on: June 23, 2018, 12:59:29 AM »
Cause of death has not been released at this time.

Absolutely shocked and saddened by this. Amazingly talented drummer/musician and one of the all time great guys in metal.

Hopefully somewhere he has reunited with his brother Dimebag and they're knocking back some black tooth grins and jamming out.

Rock In Peace Vinnie

Well damn...he was a great drummer.

I know he battled with addictions so there might be a connection....

Atleast he can rock with his brother again somewhere!

Rest in peace Vinnie!

He died in his sleep apparently. Been so so many tributes for him from people inside the rock and metal community. He was as loved and as popular as they come.

With his beloved brother now

Wasn't expecting that. Can only hope he went peacefully. His drumming was part of what made Pantera so memorable. Glad he left us with so much.

Seems that it was a massive heart attack...

http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/report-vinnie-paul-suffered-major-heart-attack/

He was most certainly in the risk group for that to happen...

But most likely he didn't feel or notice a thing which is always a blessing I suppose.
