If you missed it Pantera confirmed the long rumored reunion tour dates on their official Instagram page earlier this week. Here they are:
December 2, 2022 Hell & Heaven Open Air
December 9, 2022 Knotfest Columbia
December 11, 2022 Knotfest Chile
December 18, 2022 Knotfest Brazil
Needless to say the music world is abuzz with intrigue as to what a Dimebag and Vinnie Paul-less Pantera will look and sound like but, thanks to the magic of the internet (YouTube), we can draw some conclusions.
Charlie Benante, drummer for Anthrax and long-time friend of Vinnie Paul, will hold things down on the backend. while Zakk Wylde (no introduction needed here, hopefully) will play guitar.
For the last few years, Rex Brown, the only bass player in Pantera’s history, and friends have held Dimebash, a star studded tribute full of Pantera tunes to honor Dimebags greatness. Here’s Charlie jamming this ‘This Love’ with some guys you might recognize:
And here’s Zakk Wylde just being himself:
For the skeptics, here’s Dimebag literally handing Zakk his guitar at Ozzfest years ago for an epic show ending:
Should be a good time…
