Today in History


Tragedies in Music
Two terrible tragedies shocked the music world on December 8, 24 years apart. On December 8, 1980, John Lennon was murdered outside his New York apartment by Mark David Chapman. On December 8, 2004, Pantera and Damageplan guitarist Dimebag Darrell Abbott was shot during a Damageplan show at a club in Columbus, Ohio, by Nathan Gale. Both have been greatly missed since their premature departures from this world.
