The man changed the way I personally looked at playing bass guitar. He was my biggest influence for a long time, and still has a great influence on me today.

RIP, and thanks.

It's hard to believe that it's been 20 years already, I'm still shocked that we're coming up on the 2 year anniversary of Dimebag's death.
