Meltdown: Lock Down – Day 184

Author Meltdown

Incase you didn’t know, it’s Friday! I realize some of you aren’t keeping tabs on what day it is.

I looked at today’s 30 day song challenge and it was an easy one for me. The challenge is a song by a band you wish were still together. There’s the obvious picks like the Beatles or Zeppelin, but I’m going with a different one. Pantera. Obviously, they’ll never play together again. I have to believe that had Dimebag not been shot and killed that they may have reunited. That’s just wishful thinking on my part, but it would’ve been cool.

Think about this, there’s metal fans in their 30’s that may have never seen Pantera live. Their last show was in the summer of 2001, almost 19 years ago! So many bands disband and then get back together a few years later. For Pantera, that will never happen.

The song – “Cowboys From Hell”

This afternoon I’ll be taking over the WRIF Instagram to go live with John Cooper from Skillet. John is a great guy with an awesome sense of humor. This should be good! We go live at 2pm…check it out.

Also, today on my show we’ll celebrate National HairBall Day with the FourPlay At 4 full of nothing but hairbands. It’s Friday, so no ballads!
