[@Kriegsbeil5577]

And to add to your comments: The engineers and studio technicians in 1990 weren't using "lossless audio" and "ProTools" to mix and layer Pantera's sounds when they finished the album. Those engineers and technicians knew how to make a band sound balanced and how to mix an album. Bands these days are using laptops and all these digital tools to make an album and they sound like shit these days! Nobody knows how to mix anymore!!!!

It was actually really fun! She just provided a therapy for us all who never really had a place to express how it affected each of us as even though we all shared in the loss everyone has a personal story and meaning! One song can mean something so different between us and when and where it brings us to and how or why it got us through some moment in time and YET EVERY SINGLE ONE IS CORRECT! IT APPLIES ACROSS THE BOARD TO EACH OF US EQUALLY! And seeing her reaction for me just made it the first time in a long time that I can listen without the sadness I seemed to feel like I was required to carry out of respect and was like Dime & Vin saying through her... it's okay! We know you guys rode for us so it's cool to listen again and laugh, enjoy and get back to smashing shit with a smile! For me anyway! I can only hope the same finds its way to anyone else that might need that as well! She just opened a window I had shut for awhile and said it's cool to let some air in again! I was like.... Oh yeah!
