I had the chance to meet him at a convention last year but backed out. I've heard too many stories about how big of an asshole he is. I couldn't let my mental image of him be destroyed like that.

Out of my '70s holy trinity, I've met Evel Knievel and Henry Winkler. Both were absolutely awesome. I just can't let the trinity be shattered by Gene being an ass. 😒

I felt the same about Neal Adams. Sometimes you're disappointed by the actual person because they don't meet your expectations. It was still very cool to meet him though

Neal is a businessman above all else. He reminds me of my father. He can sound blunt and cold, but he's doing what it took to raise his family and he's done it well.

The coffin was introduced in 2001, Dimebag didn't die until 2004 so it wasn't created specifically for him. He and his brother were both huge fans and he had actually requested in his will that he be buried in one. Vinnie Paul, his brother, died last year and was also buried in one.

Also, the guitar buried with Dimebag was the guitar Eddie used on the Van Halen 2 record, not a double necked guitar.


This is the guitar buried with him.

Apparently some information in the book I read is a touch off...but I had the general idea..thanks for clarifying.

Apparently they call them Kaskets, a play on the K ...I cannot imagine they sold many or were well known until the Dimebag thing, I doubt most people had ever heard of them. From what I had read in the book about Dime, the particular Kasket donated for Dime was in some way specifically made for him, although I am unsure how it might have been different, beyond being donated. I had thought I read in the book, that it was personnaly signed by the band, or something.


Sad about his brother , I didn't know he had also passed. About the only good that came of the night Dime was killed was the fact his brother made it out of the Al Rosa club alive .

I know what you mean. Replacing an "i" with a "y" is logical. A "c" with a "k" isn't.

Originally, Gene Simmons wanted to call the band, "F__K".

No doubt Paul Stanley made the wiser choice.

There has been a connection to comics for a long while. Even this series.

Kiss first appeared in comics as far back as Howard the duck in the seventies. I have a sketch cover being done as an homage to that

True this....anyone start a pool on which of these guys passes away first? I believe Eric Carr is gone already, but if I remember right the originals are all still with us

I do have Many of the Kiss mags and comics shown in the thread. I was a big fan of the Image Psycho Circus Comic. I like the whole "Mystic" and Celestial angle. The Art was kick ass as well
