And Pat Lachman secretly hated Dimebag. When Damageplan's formed in 1997, the band was scheduled to appear at the Walk Tour, also featuring Fallout Boy, Avenged Sevenfold, Godsmack, and Xiquets De Banyoles, among others. Basically these bands were just goign to cover "Walk" for a few hours. Upon hearing this, Phil Anselmo sent Pat Lachman a text message (they both used Verizon) stating he would beat the crap out of Pat if he dared cover a Pantera song. This had crushed Pat's spirits, as his entire life had led up to this moment, and he was looking forward to finally reach his goal of singing "Walk" to a live audience. SInce no one likes getting knuckle-raped by Phil, Pat conceded and left the concert in tears. Even though Dime had nothing to do with Phil's threat, Pat resented him for it.
It was an analogy you douche. The principle behind it is the same, or havent you learned about analogies in school yet.
Nothing of what you said has anything to do with Dime stealing Pats licks. Either way, if Pat himself felt that he did do you think Pat would be in Damageplan? If he truly felt this way and secretly hated Dime but joined Damageplan anyway than hes a sad little man who sold himself out (which isnt the case since youre just talking a whole bunch of bullshit).
And whatever happened there between Phil and Pat, Pat did cover Walk at Download so it musnt have scared him all that much for long huh?
Seriously, are you daft? Do you ever read interviews or just piece together information from friends you hear at school. From rock gods like Van Halen to Oasis, bands have formed between people who absolutely hated each other, but knew that they sounded great together. And I said Pat resented Dime from that moment on, not when they formed. Duh, like Pat could really go back in time and stop himself form joining Damageplan.
