As previously reported, the official release party for the debut album from
REBEL MEETS REBEL — the project featuring three of the founding members of
PANTERA (
Vinnie Paul,
"Dimebag" Darrell Abbott and bassist
Rex Brown) together with legendary country singer/outlaw
David Allan Coe — and the
"DimeVision - Vol 1: That's The Fun I Have" DVD tribute to
Dimebag will be held on May 2 at the Clubhouse in Dallas, Texas.
Described as a unique crossover of country, metal and rock,
REBEL MEETS REBEL's self-titled CD (

Chasin Jason studios in Dalworthington Gardens, Texas
"DimeVision - Vol 1: That's The Fun I Have" (
cover) will feature both performance footage and offstage antics from the legendary guitarist.
Vinnie Paul recently told
Launch that the disc captures the essence of
Abbott's personality. "I think it's a really amazing tribute to my brother and it'll put a smile on your face," he said. "It'll make you laugh and there's stuff on there that people have never seen, and there's stuff on there I'd never seen, that just — I couldn't believe it. I was just like, 'Man, nobody could cut up like
Dime.'"
Abbott was killed onstage in December of 2004 by a deranged fan during a
DAMAGEPLAN concert in Columbus, Ohio.
