Dimebag Darrell Abbott came to rock.
DALLAS — Vinnie Paul Abbott, co-founder of Pantera, will be signing a commemorative book detailing the life of his late, famous brother and bandmate, Dimebag Darrell Abbott.
The book-signing will take place on Thursday, Nov. 20 at 6 p.m. at Best Buy’s Midway/Lyndon B. Johnson Shopping Center location on 4255 LBJ Freeway.
Dimebag Darrell: He Came To ROCK! celebrates the life of Dimebag Darrell Abbott, and reflects on his days as a child and teenager in his native Arlington, to his climb to fame as Pantera’s hard-rocking, phenomenal lead guitarist. The book includes a bonus DVD with never before seen footage, and features a compilation of personal photos taken by the people who knew him best. Pictures of Dimebag on stage tell the story of a rock legend, and personal photos with his family reveal the life of a family man who never lost his claim to Dallas.
Fans have been eagerly awaiting the release; some have already pre-ordered the book on bigvinrecords.com. (Hey, this is a press release, OK?) The book hit stores on November 18.
The Dallas signing is part of a mini-tour that ran as follows: Nov. 18 at the Hard Rock Cafe in Las Vegas; Nov. 19 at a Best Buy in Los Angeles; this Nov. 20 date in Dallas; and Nov. 21 at Borders in New York city. How jet-setty!
