In this captivating episode of Zane Lamprey’s show, viewers are treated to an intimate conversation with Rita Haney, the longtime girlfriend of legendary Pantera guitarist Dimebag Darrell. Present for much of heavy metal's history, Rita opens up about the profound impact Dimebag had on the music industry and those who knew him personally.
Rita Haney’s perspective offers a rare glimpse into Dimebag Darrell’s personal life, showcasing the balance between his status as a metal icon and the real, down-to-earth person behind the music. Fans of Pantera will particularly appreciate the stories of how Dimebag’s unrelenting passion for music shaped his life and the lives of those around him. Rita shares both heartfelt and humorous moments that paint a picture of a man who, despite his fame, remained humble, approachable, and deeply connected to the people he loved.
As the interview unfolds, Zane Lamprey lets the conversation unfold, allowing Rita to reflect on not just Dimebag’s life but also the monumental influence of Pantera on the heavy metal genre. From unforgettable tours to wild backstage moments, she gives a front-row seat to behind-the-scenes stories that will make any fan feel closer to the band and its history.
More than just a reflection on the past, this episode dives into the lasting legacy of Dimebag Darrell. Rita discusses how his innovative guitar work continues to inspire musicians today, and how his spirit lives on through his fans, family, and close friends. She speaks about her role in preserving his legacy, from involvement in tribute shows to collaborating on projects that keep his memory alive.
We need more Dime stories from Rita
I talked to her last year at a Pantera show for about 20 minutes. I had several questions about Dime and she answered them for me. I also did two Blacktooth's with Rita. She was so sweet and as cool as she is in this interview. 🥱
Rita and Dime seemed like great people to be friends with their house is so rad Dime really lived that rockstar life but he wasn’t arrogant he was an open book
I’ve been listening to Dimebag’s music for 30+ years, but what I love most is hearing stories about his life… He was such a special person!
She needs to write a book of their life together .
That's a fact!!!
So very nice. Great interview. I was in a bar on a week night playing darts all alone back in 1996. I was the only long hair guy there. Suddenly this fella with a pink beard walked up to me and asked "Do they serve whiskey here?" I said yes as I was pulling the darts out of the board. He said "Let me buy you a drink!' We drank, sang karaoke together (Sweet Home Alabama...his choice. I live in Jacksonville Fl). Drove around my city in my Toyota Corolla while he kept changing cassettes, ate Krystals, and drove him back to his hotel. I got home around 6 am (my wife was pissed). Two days later at the show, when he saw me backstage, he ran and and hugged me and my wife, he told her "your man saved my ass last night, he's good people!" Dime was amazing, such a genuine guy, no ego. He is truly missd
@abledrummer WOW that's awesome and I believe you because I knew him back in the late 80's
@@destroyingfear777 I'm not one that cries when a rocker or celebrity dies...but I cried hard on that tragic day
That's an awesome story!!!
@@abledrummeri remember getting home with my girlfriend and turning on the tv. It happened to be on mtv which wasn’t as prevalent as previous years. But it immediately went out that Dime was shot and murdered. I immediately sat on the bed looking shocked. My girl comes in and says what’s wrong? I said Dimebag Darrell was murdered. She’s like who’s that a rapper. I’m like yeah you’re not into rock he’s the Jimi Hendrix of our time! She’s not fazed but I was to the core!!!!!!
Miss Dime and Vinnie every day. Pantera is the greatest band of all time. Thanks to Rita so much for the Dime stories.
Rita’s such a genuinely good person. Had the honor of meeting her once and it’s obvious that she actually cares about the fans
Same! She's awesome!
Met Rita at Rock On The Range. She had a merch booth with Dime Gear. She was so awesome!
1992 Hollywood Palladium. Crowbar opened, White Zombie next then Pantera. I'll never forget it. After White Zombie was done, right before Pantera came out Dime was standing on the right side of the stage where nobody could see him unless you walked around the stage to that side. He was standing there warming up doing scales and I don't know what else..My and my buddies kid were standing 5 feet from him just mesmerized. We're both guitar players. He finally looked over at us and flipped both of us picks. Jim Dunlop heavy. He made 2 young guys very happy that night and all i used from then on were Jim Dunlop heavy.
Easily one of their best shows ever. The footage is on RUclips, its incredible.
When I was 15 or 16 we would go see them at a place called joes garage in Fort Worth, TX. Thats before they got big..it was cool as hell
It's amazing to search around the inter webs and find stories like these. Dime was one of a kindn
You guys brought him luck for the show since it was one of their best. Awesome story too 🤘
The last time I saw Dime was at the Palladium... He was doing the Damageplan thing and Zakk Wylde was there and I was hanging out by the buses drinking with the Kat, Zakk and a few others, I saw Dime still doing something in the back of the venue... I Yelled at him want a Coors Light bud, He said ya when he's done... I ended up having to take off b4 we could hang and have that beer... It was 1 month later he was stolen from us... And I wish I had stayed and gave him that beer, I just thought next time he cruzed thru our city, I'd connect and we'd have that beer... So I still owe him a COOR'S LIGHT... Miss that dude so much... 🤘😎🍻
Dime was such a solid dude. Image both brothers trusted Rita enough to leave their legacy in her capable hands. Miss you Dime-nobody played like you brother. RIP.
Tears when Rita starts to cry
She STILL misses Dimebag. His Death was just absolutely Senseless.
That was rough to watch her cry and he stayed loyal to her
Rita looks great, happy to see she's still around keeping Dimes legacy alive. Enjoyed the interview and could have been a 3 hour podcast easy.
This was a really nice hour spent. I got to meet Dime on the Vulgar Display tour and met Rita about 8 years ago. Dime was just so on the level with us fans, no ego at all. Rita was as sincere and sweet as can be, not to mention so dignified and graceful with all that she's been through. Much love and respect.
This was really great.
Rita absolutely needs to do more podcasts……she’s great at telling stories and she’s obviously done a lot of cool shit in her life.
She should start a podcast
DEFINITELY 💯.... VERY interesting woman!!!🤘🤘🤘
One thing I hate is we'll never get to see Dime in the social media area. He would have been a GREAT RUclipsr/streamer being considered an 'o.g.' vlogger. Dime would have been PERFECT for that!
No, don’t give him a chance to cancel himself, its better he didnt.
He would have LOVED the guitar toys that have been invented in the last 20 years. Digital modeling has come a long way
You can buy all the Pantera Home Videos and Dime Vision dvds.
He literally did all that already.
Few home video guitar lessons of him in a room. Wish we had more of those
He would of been bigger than Mr beast and loved by his fans. Dime was the diamond
YES... 💯 AGREED!!!
Dime was just one of those guitarists where you just cant replicate him. He created his own style of playing, his energy couldn’t be matched, he was just unique. I genuinely believe he is in the top 3 best metal guitarists of all time
I can never watch the scene on the Panter behind the music where Dimes dad starts to say he wishes his son would just walk through the door and give him a hug and he cries. I felt that so much. His emotions. Watching this and seeing Rita get choked up trying to talk about it 20 years later hits me the same way. It tears my heart out man.
God bless Rita, i am a pantera fan play guitar because of CFH, met Dime in 04 at earthday birthday in orlando fl. With damageplan and couldnt get into autograph line then dime stopped the line to sign my homemade dime shirt and he was the coolest guy, it made my day. Dime rules !
Dime was such a great guitar player. Such a great dude. God bless you Rita. He was one of a kind.
This is beautiful! Being a hardcore dime enthusiast this was equally amazing and emotional. Thanks for having her
Check out the recent Grady champion interview with Dean zelinski. So easy to watch as a Dimebag fan
@@hunterdavis4751Thanks for that info will check that out.
FKNEY. Soldier SHE Is ❤
You got Rita on?!?!? holy smokes. Used to watch Three Sheets to the Wind back in the day Zane. Great show. Having some drinks while watching it made me feel like I was drinking with ya. Gotta check out the Black Tooth drinks soon! You the man! Pantera and Dime were a huge influence on my guitar playing. Rock on dude. 🍻Finished hearing... i remember the the night Dime was killed...2004 i believe. December... listened to Rita from here... i cried, my best friends met up and we weeped/drank. 😔... i'll never forget that night.... all of us who knew about Dime knew how cool he was, amazingly funny dude, fun loving rocker. 🥺. That is all.
20 years later, I never met the man, and I miss him. Darrell made a huge dent in the universe. Great interview, and I learned so much more about the character of Darrell, which makes me miss him even more. God bless Rita, the family, friends, crew, and fans who endured this tragedy
Dime is my favorite guitarist ever. Huge inspiration for me. I learned how to play by ear and just practice myself. Any Dime interviews and videos is greatly appreciated. Hopefully they release all the stuff in the vault
Saw the PanterA reunion with Metallica and as PanterA ended, I turn around and there is Rita, and it’s her birthday. I asked her if I could say hello and she said of course and I gave her a big hug and just started sobbing, I told her I loved Dime and she said “me too darling”, and we parted ways. The most magical moment of the last decade for me. Fuck.
dude zane needs to invite Rita back for a heap of episodes. i could listen to Rita talk about Dimebag stories forever...
Thank you Rita for sharing your personal life with Dime, with us. We love you.
For what it’s worth Dime’s legacy will be known centuries from now, thanks for the interview Rita, peace ✌️
Thank you Rita! You should start your own podcast and tell us everything! 🖤
So glad I got to meet Rita about 10 years ago at Mayhem Fest. She was there promoting Dime Hardware and not many people were stopping, so I got talk to her about Dime and his inspiration to me with playing guitar for like 10 minutes. Awesome person and it made her smile having that conversation. Still have the picture with her too 🤘🏻
I love Dimebag and Rita - I have a whole room in my house dedicated to him with a bunch of his guitars, amps, rack effects, etc.
Texan metal Queen right there. Absolute rock royalty.
I met her at the pantera show in Austin in 2023. She is amazing ! RIP Dime and Vinnie !
I've had the pleasure of meeting and hangin out with Rita. She is such a cool person and I really appreciate how easy to talk to she was. To me, she's a big star, but she never came across that way. She was one of my friends for that night. Always will appreciate that.
Love and respect to Rita. RIP Dime.
Don't mess with Momma rita..we'll all come for you.
She's rock royalty..period
Thats right. There will be 50 somthing metal heads like me coming for your ass boy. Great interview Dude. 👍
100% automatically protected and honored
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Freddie Mercury is Rock royalty, this chick is just someone who banged a rockstar.
Rock royalty?!? 😂😂😂
Groupies don't get royalty status.
@@palaholic1889lmfao yup! They weren't married so that's what she is. 30 years together is a long time and he never tied the knot with her.
Aww that was deep when she started talking about the" I love you " moments.
❤️
Loved this, you were so respectful with Rita and gave her a chance to make us have a great time. Big repect 🫶🏻❤️
Great interview. I was one of those “kids” who waited by the bus every time they played my town. Skipped my night school class the first time they came around, used a fake ID to get in. It changed my life. This wasn’t my dad’s or my older brother’s music. This was something new for the 90’s and all mine. I remember my friends and I driving around the east coast to see Pantera 4 times in one week. On the 3rd night, Dime said “weren’t you mfers here last night”? We said yep, see you at the next show too. He said “these guys need a shot”. LOL
I’ve been to hundreds of shows since Dime was taken from us but never again felt the sense of brotherhood and experienced the downright craziness that I did at those Pantera shows.
I skipped the first day of 11th grade to go see em down in Mass with White Zombie. 96.
Im pickin up what you are puttin down man, Tampora were for us at our time.
They waved the flag and kept marching.
I see youtuber's now shittin on em, calling it mainstream " sellout" walmart metal or some shit...basically saying they have no cred because it wasnt underground or " Kvlt".
What a bunch of horseshit.
The world was a lot different before everything was at the click of the fingers on keyboard.
Seems to me like things meant more, or actually mattered.
Im probably just old and in the way.
Rita, you seem like a genuine person. I am a long time fan of dime.i am sorry for your loss,no matter how much time has passed since his untimely passing. Your smile is up lifting ..and I love what you are doing in dimes name!!
Much love to you Rita. Thank you for sharing your stories and keeping Dime's spirit alive ❤
She's ruined it
@shamelesskindness How could you say that?
I met her two years ago and she is a genuinely great person.
@@shamelesskindnessSeriously? What makes you say that? I'm genuinely curious.
@@scramblesthedeathdealer She owns his Name, Likeness and the Masters to his Music. She legally uses the name Rita Haney Abbott.
@@Tornado1994 I believe in the legal world, that Dime and Rita had lived together more than long enough (20 years is what i believe that she stated) where they would and could be legally married by common law, in the eyes of many states since before Dime’s passing. If the state (Texas) where they live, knows by tax records how long they co-habitated before Dime’s passing, they may have used a grandfather law that would allow her to legally be using the Abbott name as her own legal last name. That would make it a lot easier on her for sure, as far as legal issues are concerned. She had been left a considerable amount of Dimebag’s estate, if not all of it, before he was murdered. It was well known that they were not married in the way marriage usually happens, but they were never going to part ways. They were childhood sweethearts and he wanted more than anything to know she was taken care of for the rest of her life. I couldn’t imaging Dime or her being with anyone else. To whomever said “shes ruined it”, you’re more than wrong! She is making sure that the disrespectful family that now owns the old Dean company doesn’t put out crap import instruments with Dimebag’s name all over them. The CEO of Dean guitars basically said that Dimebag’s name wasn’t worth the price tag she thought it was for the licensing agreement they wanted to make with her, but they sure did make a lot of Dime looking models without his name on them last year hoping to make as much as they could off of them before the REAL DEAN ZELINSKY takes Dimebag’s name back! The garbage family who now run Dean guitars in Florida are real scumbags!! Disrespectful, ungrateful, money grabbing scumbags!!! The REAL Dean Zelinsky will make excellent quality guitars starting this year and begin to heal the damage that family has done to Darrell’s name. The mother and son who run Dean are disgusting people and i hope Rita buries them in court in her lawsuit against them. AGAIN, THE REAL DEAN ZELINSKY WILL BE MAKING NEW DIMEBAG GUITARS for Dimebag’s estate beginning this year!! Rita, if by chance you do ever read this, THANK YOU, FOR KEEPING DIME’S LEGACY ALIVE!!!
This was awesome! I miss both Dime and Vinnie. I seen Pantera last year knowing it’s not the same no doubt, but to hear those songs again brought tears to my eyes. Pantera was so groundbreaking in my life, like to so many other peeps
keep the Dime stories coming🙏🏻🔥
Rita is such a sweetheart
i was 15 the first time i saw pantera. and i was devastated wen dimebag was killed, it still gets me time to time.
Dimbag Daryll was such a legend. I was in my high school welding class and I found out that he died from some of my classmates and we were all in shock. Its such a loss. Its up there with Kurt Cobain, Chris Cornell and Chester Benington. Its just really sad. His broth Vinnie was also such a powerful drummer. Im sure he would be alive if Dimebag was alive.
I still can't believe how he was taken from us. I never got to see him live and have no cool stories to tell, unfortunately. But I am 100% certain he was the most awesome dude because I feel like he is actually a brother of mine through his music. RIP legend.
That was so good!! I used to see Pantera in Texas before they got famous, but I never got to meet Dime until they opened for Skid Row in early '92. He was out "circulating" by the concessions just like Rita talked about. He was the nicest, most coolest guy ever. We just talked a lot about Dead Horse because we both had a Dead Horse shirt on, and a couple other Houston bands. The only other famous guitarist I've met is Eddie Van Halen. And as most of you know, Eddie placed one of his famous guitars in Dime's grave. Thanks for sharing your story, Rita! And thank you Zane! Btw, I met you in Houston too. lol
yoo ritas making a shroom chocolate??? IM DOWN
Thank you so much for doing this podcast and telling your and Dime’s story. Especially about that horrible day. As you were telling your experience of that horrible day I couldn’t help but tear up listing to you. It took me back to that next morning when I heard the news when I got to work. I felt paralyzed and didn’t know what to do. My hero was murdered. I had the pleasure of meeting Dime twice, once at one of his Randall clinics and the next after a show Pantera had finished playing on the RtS tour and both experiences were such a delight that I will never ever forget. Dime has been a huge influence in my life and he is still my hero at 47. Like many his guitar playing influenced me and my guitar playing to this day.Thank you so much for this Rita.
I've waited to hear Rita speak once she was ready since the day we lost Dime. It was so great to hear her stories and really awesome to hear how Dime spoke those last words to her. Thanks for this podcast Zane. Really great conversation and thank you for sharing Rita. Congrats on 'Black Tooth' nice work.
Awesome! 👏🏽 down home real talk! RIP Dime&Vinnie🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
This whole interview is pure gold, she seems like an awesome person
I partied with Pantera many times. I had a standing VIP pass. Those after show parties were pure awesome! Those were the most down to earth guys. They let me bring as many friends with me as I wanted, too. I never brought more than 3. Dime was absolutely faithful. He'd joke around, but didn't cross lines. 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Just now came across this interview. Brings back alot of memories. Back in the 80"s and early 90"s I used to be a Head Bouncer in Dallas, I worked at the Ritz Rock-N-Roll,The new Mothers Blue's and finished my career at Dallas City Limits. Worked there from 89-92 and that's when i met the whole family, crazy times!! They played there quite often.I remember one night after the show got all the equipment put up and we continued to party in the parking lot. And what I mean by we it consisted of Dime,Vinnie,Rex and myself plus a few other folks. Well Dime was hitting on the Whiskey he said "This is how ya do it"!! He started guzzling that shit and around the forth guzzle he blew chunks!! Lol. Immediately Vinnie and Rex started giving him shit, saying "So that's how ya do it heh"??lol. Had some good times with them boys!!
I have like 3 Dime stories, but the best one was back in the Power Metal times. we would go see them at a club called Metal Works in Arlington. Dime used to DJ between their sets. He had left to go get ready for the last set, and another guy took over. I was asking him to play Can You Deliver by Armored Saint. Then another song came on. It wasn't the song I requested, so I would ask again. The guy never played it. Then Pantera came out for their set and played Can you Deliver! I was yelling they played that for me! Lol, then when the solo came up, Dime got down off stage and got up on my table where we were at hanging. He ripped that solo so bad ass right in my face! I knew then it was for me. Later that night, he came up to me and stuck out his hand with 4 joints. Dime said, "You want to buy some joints? I wish I had them today in a glass frame. Dime was such a great guitar player and entertainer and remained approachable even after they reached world status! Love him! RIP Dime, getcha pull!!!
I was one of those kids waiting outside in 1998. Dime literally treated me like a little brother and I'll never forget that. Rest in power big bro \m/
I saw Pantera in 1999 with morbid angel & soul fly in okc. It was goddamn electric. Thx Rita. I really love dimebag an miss him alot.
Protect this woman at all costs! She could do a million podcasts and we would sit and hang on every word! Rip dime. Im 38. Grew up raised by pantera and never got a chance to see them live. Refuse to see any lineup since he passed with due respect to remaining members. But dime, vinny were the heart and soul.
There’s a classic clip of Darrel on stage playing new level, holdin a deadly harmonic squeal, grabs a lit dart off the headstock, takes a drag or pretended to and made it seem like it hard, kinda shaking in sync with the squeal, drops the dart and right back to shredding
Had the pleasure of meeting Rita ar Aftershock in October, one of the sweetest people I have ever met.
Only got to see Pantera twice. First time was Ozzfest 97 in Virginia. Crowd went bonkers and tore the grass field up, and Pantera got banned from the venue. Second time was about 2000 on the Reinventing the Steel tour. Me and 3 friends drove from San Fran to San Jose with no tickets, and people outside the venue wanted more money than we could afford for tickets. On our sad walk back to the car, we found an unmarked door. We walked inside, and it led straight to backstage. We walked through like we belonged there, walked onto the stage and down onto the floor and enjoyed a great Pantera show free of charge!!!
Wow! Rita is still so strong after all these years!🤘
So pretty too!
Got to meet her last year at rocklahoma. And it was like I told her, chilling with her and hearing the stories about dime was equally as near and dear as when I met dime back when I was kid in '95. Can't wait to meet her again and have shots of black tooth with her
I love listening to Rita's stories. RIP Dimebag
Met her at Metal Mayhem festival round 2010 or so. Stopped what she was doing at her booth to give me a hug an lemme take a few pics. Awesome lady.
Much love to Rita from all CFH fans in Sweden!!. Your DIMEBAG will never be forgotten!!. ❤️🙏CFH🙏❤️
Rita is such an awesome and noble person. I love this lady a whole lot. Its awesome that phillip pushed dime and rita onwards to be together. LORDS UNMATCHED FOREVER ON AND ON AND FORWARD ! STRONGER than all. 💚💚👈👈!! .... This Love indeed.
Dime and Rita go WAY back. To Elementary School.
I know. Phillip pushed for thier adult relationship. Listen to what she says in the interview brother. It's there. She thanks him.
@@adamturner1563 Darrell and Rita are Childhood Sweethearts.

This is a beautiful conversation. Thank you Rita for sharing these stories with us, Dime will live forever in our hearts

It still haunts her what happened that day.
She's very very strong for talking about that tragic day.
Watching this, it just occurred to me that it’s been twenty years!!! I remember hearing the news like it was yesterday. 😢
Amazing interview so good to see Rita speak about everything. 🤘🤘
We miss him too, we love you Rita , and I'm so so sorry 💔💯🤘🧬🎸🌹🤘 PERSPECTIVE IS EVERYTHING,SMART STRONG WOMAN, I SEE WHY DARRELL SAW WHAT HE SAW IN YOU ❤

Thank you for being so open Rita. You rule dude 🤟🖤
i met rita at the dime hardwear booth 8/6/23 and ill never forget it, complete coincidence as i was asking if she was around and got told no because she as feeding the cats (on tour LMAO) i went to turn and take my loss but there she was coming out of the bus to come to the booth and came up and took a picture with me. greatest experience ever!!!!! hope shes at bezerkus!
Much love to Rita❤ always. Shes a treasure
Zane got really lucky to have this opportunity
Pro tip: Always keep your liquor and mixers at room temp and use a lot of ice. The ice will melt and you'll be hydrated as you drink.
I've always loved Rita. I dont like that you opened up to her with Dimes murder tho. She's got more to offer than the worst day of her life dood.
Frl that is so messed up like why would he even say that or bring it up such bs
Thank you Rita! We need a part 2. Roll with it or get rolled over!
I enjoyed this, haven't seen Rita this candid before. Wish the Host knew the most basic details about Dimebag tho.
REST IN PEACE DIMEBAG😪
That was a great pod cast, I could listen to Rita for hours. Please do more!!!
Oh man that was fun to listen too! PANTERA still rocks my socks off!
Very cool interview I could listen to her stories all day long..I’m so glad n feel so blessed to hv seen Pantera in Fayetteville nc back in the day..coal chamber,machine head and Pantera what an awesome show..
This is awesome dude. I wish more people would interview Rita more. Shes still a fun loving sweetheart . RIP Darrell !!
Awesome Rita..we all are fans u were his love ..but while your telling this horrible story in your perspective...its awesome to see dime on your arm smiling it's like yea baby I'm still here ..rest ez DIME🤘🤘🤘
This guy is interviewing Rita and doesn't even know Dime was killed on stage?
Yeah I’m suprised there’s not more comments about this, seems very uneducated about the subject matter and also up his own ass way too much, like a lot of podcast hosts unfortunately.
Nor the fact he was shot in 2004. No research
Thought the same.
This guy isn't a youngster. How does he NOT KNOW??
This was special. She is special.
Thank you Rita! I’m sad you had to go through that interview. You did great, the interviewer should have done his research and been much more respectful of your time sharing such an emotional moment of your life.
This podcast was amazing, and Rita is a great storyteller. Man i got choked up when she did talking about Dime. He was such a great guitarist and funny human being, I still love watching his homemade videos. Hope to see Rita do more of these, as she has an amazing gift for it. RIP DIME you are missed! ❤
I still love hearing stories about Dimebag....Thank you Rita Haney for keeping his spirits alive....I will buy some black teeth grin in his honor 🤘🤘🤘🥃🥃🥃
ThRita Haney!! Awesome ❤
I can listen to Dime stories all day. Plus, It's cool that your a comic music and comedy are my two favorite things.
Incredible! Rita is awesome 🙌
I wish this guy knew more about Dime. He could've asked more pertinent questions.
Every think maybe hes asking for those who don’t ?
right? He didn't even get the man's death year right like WTF. Also IDK if it's just me but I feel like he was very crass about it how he brought it up.
Thanks I don't have to say it. This guy knows nothing.
I agree, also it's a bit weird to open up literally with his death. Could have set it up a bit better
Yeah he definitely did not do his research
5 minutes in I'm hooked..thank you for putting this together ...I got to see Rita in Milwaukee for the pantera celebration and it was the cherry on top of a great night
5 minutes alone
She is so cool man. She should start her own podcast to tell all the fans about stuff she saw growing up with PanterA. She’s the only person who could actually say she was there tbe entire time.
It's still sad ,every time you hear about it. He seemed to be such a good nature d soul . A thoughtful person so it seemed. Phenomenal talents , all four of them . A true original. Peace Abbotts there dad passed away this year in April.
I love Rita, did a shot of whiskey with her last year in Columbus, Ohio! Much love ❤, getcha pull!
