It is cool, but it's too bad they can't get good bands to show up.

What is a good band ? Element Eighty, Manditory, Faktion, Necrogazm are all top bands... and every band will be playing a Pantera / Damageplan song on thier sets. Should be an awesome show.

If they didn't, it'd be pretty pointless to call it a Dimebag tribute show, wouldn't it?
And I like the creativity of those band names. "Manditory", I would've never thought of changing vowels around.

And where are bands like CoC, Crowbar, BLS etc.
That bands should pay their tribute to DimE!

sounds like a good idea but they have awful bands playing.

Well, since this is a tribute show to Dime, the bands playing are nice to have when the other bands mentioned would be very very expensive to have here.... All the profits for this show are donated to the Dime Memorial Fund and with having COC, Zakk and others like that on the bill, that would be a limited donation if any.
I would love to have those guys here too and did consider that, but in the end, to do a tribute show and make it fun and still donate a majority of the money made that night to Dime, we had to stay small on the first annual event of Dimefest and maybe grow bigger each year with larger bands.
Hopefully everyone will come out, it will be alot of fun, but I just couldnt afford those bigger names on the first Dimefest until I can figure out how to make the majority of the money donations each year.

For 15 bucks, I'll go,since it's right down the street from me. Nice idea from the good folks at the Bone
The metroplexes only somewhat, partially,every once in awhile metal station.

If it's a tribute show and the profits are going to a charity, any band that was friends with Dime should do it for free. Bands like Drowning Pool, BLS, and the remaining members of Damageplan shouldn't have to be paid to pay tribute to someone who is supposedly their friend.

You are correct, but BLS will be in the studio then, Damageplan would not be a band without Dime and Drowning Pool is hard since they are still working with the new singer Ryan.
I will be working on larger bands next years Dimefest.

Something positive for once, in this entire bullshit fucking year thus far. You go gurl.
Until someone has put on a band "fest" they have no clue to the logistical nightmare that ensues.
I'd like to see DIME DOLLAZ donated to public school music in paraguay.
j/k
The good ol USA

It is definitely a nightmare putting on a festival of bands and such, but it is all worth it for Dimebag.
Anyway... keep your eye on dimefest.com for details and when tickets go on sale to the public.
Thanks

Have you heard any of these bands play? prob not.
what since their not all big name big label bands their not good?
every band has to start somewere they just don't form a band become sighned over night. Hell pantera,metallica,testament, all bands started like this.
Necrogasm puts on a damn good live show,their a very tight band and have a couple of really good guitar players.
Mod effect are really good too and have their own sound and style,diesal are good too.
Try listening to these bands first before making a stupid ass comment like that

Actually, Testament was formed through a nationwide search, much in the vein of "Making the Band 2", except Lionel Richie was the P. Diddy of that situation.

Exactly, those who are complaining about the line-up are free to organise their own shit, I'm sure Slayer, BLS, etc. are sitting by the phone right now waiting for your call

Considering that a lot of the board dosen't live in Texas and has never heard of these local bands, i think he meant some national acts should be playing there.
All these big bands should play for free if they were friends of Dime. They can afford it.. Or can they?
