the metal world feels your pain

``This is the worst day in metal history,''

Well, maybe not the worst, but it's probably right next to when Rob Halford came out.

So the story behind this is the dude (one of the Abbots) from Pantera got shot onstage while performing with his new band in Ohio. Still no story about why, but one can only suspect a methed out metalhead pissed about him breaking up the band. The coppers capped him before he could explain so we may never know...
