Dimebag Taught Phil Anselmo A Valuable Lesson
. The 10th anniversary of Darrell Abbott's murder is marked by the latest edition of Metal Hammer, on sale today. It includes an in-depth feature on Dimebag and his legacy. TeamRock Radio last night broadcast a documentary marking the anniversary - it's available on demand now. Anselmo says: "I learned a lot of lessons from Dimebag. There was a time when I was going through a very tough period when it felt like my body was betraying me, and some days I would just have a sh*tty attitude and that would be my f***ing mood for the day. "Both Dimebag and our security guy, Big Val, came in one day and said, 'You know, Phil, when you roll off that bus, you set the tone for the day with your actions.' "From that I took a positive from it, and no matter how I'm f***ing feeling these days, I make sure I poke my head in and say hello to the opening band, I say hello to the road crew, really just sort of to show a kinder side to myself. Dimebag taught me that making things easier for everyone around me is imperative. "When it came to Pantera, he was very particular, and when it came to pushing anyone, whether it be me, Rex or anyone, he could push you, but he was also a great motivator. And he was always working towards the best for whatever particular song we were working on. He'd get the best out of everybody." Read more here.
