I met the band PANTERA many years ago. I heard of them while getting a tattoo at Papa San's in Arlington, Texas. Then I welcomed them to Philadelphia at the Trocadero Theatre less than a year later. There probably wasn't more than a couple of hundred people in attendance that night but, you certainly know the rest of the story from this point. One of those fine people is no longer available to speak with. Diamond was the first name he used before going to Dimebag. I will always know him as Darrell...

I gotta a huge amount on my todo list and if you read further you'll get an idea of why its worth reading onward. I've been slapping backs pumping hands and getting to know people in the ( two finger quote marks in mid air sign) entertainment fields all this time. From basement rockers to internationally know giants in the business. In this time I've used alot of lungpower extolling my virtues and worth. Many people have taken me at my word and have committed to work with VidDREAM Television and or The TINK.That content begins now...
This is a story about a club located almost directly underneath a huge major river span called the Walt Whitman bridge. Held within this music/restaurant/tavern are some rooms decicated to public display of original music. For a person who enjoys music made by local bands this would be considered "the place to be." It was a great place to visit because of the relaxed dress code and the uber friendly atmosphere presented by the staff and owner. This owner is named Brian Cohan and he has strived to create a haven for groups to come and display they're musical talents for over six years. The esteem and popularity of this club had been steadily growing at a fast pace for those years and Brian had said that plans for further improvements were being thought out. These plans took an abrupt turn for the worst just recently with the awful accident of the dreaded fire burnout. I'm not clear of the cause, its been stated that it was some sort of electrical short and to tell you the truth it does not make anything better to know the root of the accident. What does matter alot is that this man that has given largely to the orignal music scene is without a home, a business, a club, a meeting place for friends. Here's the catastrophic part of this story yet untold. Many people have said to me "oh well, at least there's the insurance" NOPE! He had let the payments cease due to lack of income keeping these bands playing on a regular basis. This man must be aided in the rebirth of his establishment. Some how or another we should band together and assist this man and his musical destiny for the betterment of all.~~>TT
This time we elect another twenty year veteran of the charged music world. This is a group of guys that we at VidDREAM TV always go and see when they're in town and most usually grab a video interview with also.
