"Dimebag" Darrell Abbott and his brother Vinnie Paul, both founding members of Pantera, formed the band Damageplan after Pantera's breakup in 2003.
During a December 8, 2004 Damageplan concert at the Alrosa Villa nightclub in Columbus, Ohio, a mentally ill former U.S. Marine climbed on stage during their first song and shot "Dimebag" Darrell multiple times in the head. Three other people were killed and several wounded before a police officer was able to shoot and kill the gunman.
