Vinnie Paul closes door on a possible Pantera reunion

Mon, 31 Jan 2011

Former Pantera drummer Vinnie Paul has closed the door on the possibility of a Pantera reunion deeming it 'Disrespectful' to consider doing Pantera without his brother, Dimebag Darrell.

Vinnie Paul, currently on tour with his band HellYeah, recently told www.darkside.ru "Dime was such a huge part of it; it would be just completely asinine to even consider that. I think it’s pretty disrespectful from people to even suggest it. He left an amazing legacy and it’s gonna be left untouched, it’s beautiful, it’s pristine and I wanna leave it that way. I am really proud of what I do with this band (Hellyeah). Of course, the history of Pantera speaks for itself. I want him to always be known as “the dude,” you know. Period. Forever."You can catch Vinnie Paul and HellYeah on tour in the US at the moment, for more information visit www.hellyeahband.com
