I haven't posted in awhile because I have been busy with studies, but I felt this needed to be shown here, where people care about one's love of life and the importance of living life to the fullest.  An extremely talented musician, Darell Abbot, also known as Dimebag Darell, was shot and killed by a crazed fan when he was playing a show in Ohio a couple days ago.  Darell was one of the most influential guitarists of his generation, his influences can easily be traced in bands from System of a Down to Muse (in case anyone is wondering, two very good rock acts).  Darell was a man who truly enjoyed life, and would live it to the fullest everyday.  He was a devoted husband to his wife, one of the most generous musicians in America when it came to causes he believed in as well as his fans, and as many people said, one of the nicest, most outgoing people they had ever met.  Although he knew he had a talent with guitar, one that was uniquely his own, he was rather humble about it, never putting anyone down because of his skill, and always helping people improve their own technique by either personally instructing them or through his numerous lessons in guitar magazines.  The music world is truly at a loss, and their are many great eulogies for him circulating around on the internet (many can be found at blabbermouth.net), and they all discuss his love for life and how great of a person he was, and can be very touching, even if you do not know or care for Dimebag Darell.  While you may not appreciate his music, many of you are sure to respect and find honour in his sense of life.
I just felt like people should know about this/
