They at the concert let the audience know it was about dimebag darrell... they were good friends with him cause chad said "A little over a year ago a good friend of ours was taken from us..." adn then they played a video of him and that is like... so great... but the way they got to solo was from recordings of his that they bought the publishing rights to....

Yea, I appreciate Nickelback making an effort to try to live up to a higher level of heaviness when making this song(for the sake of dimebag), but it turned out great in the end.

Dimebag did the solo on this song, not quite sure how NB got a hold of it lol but at least he is still rocking from the grave. This song i think is obviously about Him, as "Sunny Day Believer" said those two lines totally give it away

I saw nickelback in concert and they told us this song was about dimebag darrel. The guitarist played the riff, I assume he also did that on the cd.

Okay, I feel like a total loser. I've owned this cd since it came out [almost] and I never knew it was about Dimebag. I mean, I knew it was about someone being shot and killed, but I never really paid enough attention I guess. I thought it was about somebody like breaking in and committing a murder in front of the victim's brother or something. I only found out a few days ago and listened to the song and it made sense then. But in my own defense, I didn't even know much about Pantera except that they did the song "Walk" until like less than a year and a half ago so I'm only half stupid, right?

"It's about Dimebag Darrel, of Pantera and Damageplan, who got shot on stage by a "fan."" Correct I'm friends with John Anselmo, Philip Anselmo's brother and we were talking about this today.

First line: "Uncle Sam taught him to shoot" Nathan Gale (the killer) was a Marine.

I actually had no idea...I thought it was about the war and how people are dying and it's just like what the hell were you thinking...that person has family too.
