 KNAC.COM - Features - Exclusive Interview With Vinnie Paul of Damageplan   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
Paul was also the backbone of a seminal band, Pantera, that was simply never supposed to break up—at least they were never supposed to fracture in the manner that they did.
After that, the guessing game commenced which ultimately culminated in a decision by Vinnie and his brother, Dime—two years later--to form a new band of their own because at that point there was simply no reason to believe that Phil would ever come back to the fold.
The way Vinnie and the other members of Damageplan amiably interacted with the fans minutes before the interview was the complete and total antithesis to what I saw when a certain other person’s band rolled into town awhile back.

Sessions for the album took place over a four-year stretch starting in 1999, with the musicians recording whenever they were all in in Dallas with some time to kill between their respective tours.
For Paul, part of the magic of the album is that they did it on their own - without any record company people, managers or producers lurking about and trying to get them to conform to some preconceived and easily marketable notion.
Though Paul admits that the musicians were intimidated the first time they got together with Coe - Paul says that he and Abbott grew up on a steady dose of Coe's music at home - it was the country renegade himself who put them at ease.

Vinnie said that time has eased things a bit, affording him the ability to talk openly about Dime and his death, but emotions still run high and the loss is great.
