Windstein, a former colleague of Phil Anselmo in Down, admits to being a huge fan of the band, but says he can't see the surviving members performing as Pantera with Zakk Wylde - or anyone else - on guitar.

Windstein tells Riff-Mag: "I know Phil was doing a Pantera song or two with Black Label, but I can't ever see it being billed as Pantera. If it's Philip Anselmo, Rex Brown, Vinnie Paul and special guest Zakk Wylde doing the music of Pantera or celebrating the legacy of Pantera - I can see that happening. But to say 'This is Pantera', no.
