Vincent Paul Abbott born March 11, 1964

R.I.P.: June 22, 2018

Vinnie Paul, the drummer for the famous American groove metal band Pantera, was born on March 11, 1964, and he passed away on June 22, 2018. Pantera fans around the world remember both dates to honor his music and his life. Vinnie Paul started the band with his brother, the guitar player Dimebag Darrell (RIP Aug 20, 1966-Dec 8, 2004). Vinnie was known for playing the drums very heavy! His loud, hard-hitting drumming helped give Pantera's music that big groove. After Pantera, he played in other bands like Damageplan and Hellyeah. Blast some Pantera today!
