This ought to be interesting (heavy metal alert)...

I'm not generally too much of a stickler about these things, especially being a Hagar era VH fan, but it isn't Pantera without Dime and Vinnie. It would be like Van Halen without Ed and Alex.

Is the Abbott family okay with Phil Anselmo using the Pantera name? Shit was heavy with the two camps for a long time.

i'd sat zakk and charlie are the only ones suitably close enough to fill the roles

Unofficially they are called Pantera 2.0. Zakk and Charlie B. are amazing. I may consider this.

Pass. Not a fan of Phil Anselmo or Zakk Wylde.

Not a H*** fan of Zakk, but he has played some epic riffs throughout his career...

Absolutely. It might seem strange but I think that most of my issue with Wylde are not just the constant squealing notes as much as it is his association with modern Ozzy. While I enjoyed the show "The Osbournes" it ruined Ozzy for me because it turned him into a blathering idiot. There was always a mystery to Ozzy and when they pulled back the curtain, I completely lost interest in anything he did beyond the Jake E Lee era.

he was that long before tv. he reminded me a lot of buffalo bill from what i have heard. they had to prop him up until the curtain opened and then he came to life. i even hung up on him one night on the outta control show. he kinda flamed out and sharon runs it all

Oh I believe it, I'm just referring to The Osbournes putting it on my radar. So when I say "it turned him into a blathering idiot", I was referencing my perception.

The Brummie accent is one of the more difficult to understand, but it’s obviously more than that with Ozzy.
