BW&BK EXCLUSIVE: HELLYEAH – For The Last Time, ZAKK Will Not Be Joining PANTERA!
May 3, 2007, 17 years ago
In a recent interview with BW&BK;, HELLYEAH drummer Vinnie Paul (ex-PANTERA, DAMAGEPLAN) had this to say about the one question fans never tire of asking…
“You know, for me the most unreasonable thing that I see all the time is, ‘Hey, you know, why don’t you guys call ZAKK WYLDE (OZZY OSBOURNE) and put Pantera back together?’ Fucking blows, if you ask me. I love Zakk, he’s fucking amazing, but Pantera… Dime was Pantera, and without him there is no Pantera and there is no Damageplan, and that’s how I feel about it. You know, I would think that the fans would respect that too, but they get so wound up in their little world and wanting to hear their favourite songs, and to them, it gets to the point that it doesn’t matter who’s playing them, as long as it’s some of the guys to do it. You know, I can never picture that being relevant.”Look for a major feature on Hellyeah in BW&BK; #105, out in June.
