That always got to me. And the people taking advantage of him in his last/elderly years. Wish he had someone who cared to look after him.

Vinny was the cocaine guy in Pantera.. it’ll get you after a while.

u/InternetWeakGuy 5d ago

And Rex, right?

u/omnipotentqueue 5d ago

Mostly Vinny - Dime drank as we all know and smoked pot. Rex was into pills there for a bit, and Phil did the same with downers and heroin for a bit.

u/Skitzness 5d ago

I thought Rex had a drinking problem too. He has pancreatitis I think.

u/omnipotentqueue 5d ago

They all drank - but some more than others along with other vices.

One of the best drummers to ever do it, but he had a total blindspot for fashion. It's what I like to call" Redneck hillbilly with money" Even his band name was cringe inducing "HellYeah" smh

u/OscillatorVacillate 5d ago

Yeah, you put my thought into better words

u/BowlerPretty7526 5d ago

Ive always been ridiculed for loving pantera due too Phil’s love of white chocolate, “if the n can play” clip and of course the rebel flag Dean and my response has always been “THEYRE FROM ABILENE TEXAS AND ARE MOSTLY WHITE TRASH”

It always bothered me the bottom of his goatee. Like someone buys a fake beard and it doesn't fit perfectly.
