Eddie's Evil Brew

No need to run to the hills if you're looking for a bottle of vino for your next shin dig. If your're an Iron Maiden fan, you'll love this.


Check it. "Eddie's Evil Brew" direct from the band's webshop.
 
From the website: "You can have 'piece of mind' that this fine Chilean merlot tastes great on its own or with a very very rare steak!"


It's stored in it's own wooden presentation box.  As you can see, 'Iron Maiden Eddie's Evil Brew' is printed on top sliding lid which would make a great gift.


Daniela Pilic of Sweden Rock Magazine made a video of the unboxing of the fourth vintage of "Iron Maiden Eddie's Evil Brew" wine.


And not to be outdone, AC/DC also have their name on a wine bottle.


What's also cool, their wines/bottles are coined with names inspired by their hits. Highway to Hell cabernet sauvignon. You Shook Me All Night Long muscat. And Hells Bells sauvignon blanc. Sadly, they don't have a Whole Lotta Rosé bottle for sale.

Remembering Dimebag

On this date Thursday December 8, we mark the 7-year anniversary of the death of "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott. The legendary Pantera and Damageplan guitarist was shot to death onstage during a Damageplan show at the Alrosa Villa club in Columbus, Ohio in 2004.



Video: I love this clinic/demo featuring Dimebag.

The day after Dimebag's murder, his brother's Vinnie Paul released the following statement:

"With all his greatness and accomplishments on the guitar, Dime will be missed more for his giving personality, charisma, caring for others, love and most of all his HEART!! Twice as big as the state of TEXAS!!!!!!!!!!!! Dime gave it all every day to each and every one of us and our lives have forever been hollowed without him...Thanks to all of you for reaching out to us in this time of our immeasurable loss. REST IN PEACE BROTHER DIME!!!!!!"
