DIMEBASH 2010

This past Friday, the first version of Dimebash 2010 took place at the Key Club on the Sunset Strip in West Hollywood, California. The event was organized as a tribute to "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott (Pantera and Damageplan), who was shot and killed on December 8, 2004 at the Alrosa Village in Columbus Ohio. The event was also a fund raiser for the "Ronnie James Dio Stand Up and Shout Cancer Fund". Additionally, the concert was shot for a future DVD release and proceeds from the sales will also go towards the fund.

The event featured some of the top Hard Rock musicians in the world, here is the partial list:


Lemmy Kilmister (MOTÖRHEAD)
Dave Grohl (FOO FIGHTERS)
Joey Jordison (SLIPKNOT & ROB ZOMBIE)
Jerry Cantrell and Mike Inez (Alice In Chains)
Simon Wright (DIO)
Brent Smith, Zach Myers and Eric Bass (SHINEDOWN)
Kerry King and Dave Lombardo (SLAYER)
Robb Flynn and Phil Demmel (MACHINE HEAD)
Chuck Billy (TESTAMENT)
Maria Brink and Chris Howorth (IN THIS MOMENT)
Joey Vera (ARMORED SAINT)
Tony Campos (STATIC-X)
Gerry Nestler (PHILM)
John Boecklin (DEVILDRIVER)

This "All Stars" performed songs by PANTERA, BLACK SABBATH, and MOTÖRHEAD

Additionally, the sold-out event was hosted by Jose Mangin from Sirius XM, Headbangers Ball and Latination. Jose has hosted several Dimebag events, including the "Ride for Dime". Mangin also jammed with Chuck Billy (Testament), Phil Demmel (Machine Head), Joey Jordison (Slipknot & Rob Zombie) and Tony Campos (Static X & Asesino). During their cover of Mouth For War, he cut his head open with Phil Demmel's Dean headstock. Chuck Billy later baptized Jose's gash as the "Dimegash".
