Last Thursday, August 15, Pantera - billed as CFH (Cowboys From Hell) - headlined an intimate club show at First Avenue in Minneapolis, MN. And it seems that Pantera - comprised of original members vocalist Phil Anselmo and bassist Rex Brown, along with guitarist Zakk Wylde (Black Label Society, Ozzy Osbourne, Zakk Sabbath) and drummer Charlie Benante (Anthrax) - recorded the show for an upcoming live album.

This is according to comedian Craig Gass, who performed a stand-up routine and addressed the crowd as follows:

"Announcement number one. The band you are seeing tonight is not called Cowboys From Hell. You are about to watch an exclusive show from the band Pantera. The rumours got out quickly, and you guys bought up all the tickets. And you may have heard this rumour. And this is also true, we are recording our first ever live album right here at the First Avenue. So, there's a couple things you need to know about it. First of all, you will all, for eternity, be heard on a live Pantera album. That's the good news. The bad news, you're not gonna get paid for this. Welcome to the music business."

Pantera's First Avenue setlist (as per Setlist.fm):

"A New Level"
"Mouth For War"
"Strength Beyond Strength"
"Becoming"
"I'm Broken"
