Terribly saddened by the news of Vinnie Paul’s passing. Vinnie was a beloved fixture in the rock and metal communities and we will miss seeing him out on the road. His impact on heavy music is immeasurable. Rest In Peace Vinnie, condolences to your family, friends and fans.

R.I.P. VINNIE PAUL: Just woke in London to the news that Vinnie Paul has died. I can’t even begin to process this. Not only one of the greatest drummers of all time but also one of the nicest humans you could ever meet. A crushing blow for all who love heavy music. God bless him. pic.twitter.com/wjXfpncOXE

May 20 was the last time I text with my bro #VinniePaul. His @vegasgoldenknights had just eliminated my @nhljets from the playoffs and we were exchanging “the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat” pix. Now that he’s gone, this picture he sent me sums him up to a tee and the picture I sent him sums up how I feel right now. I’m so so sad…I love you Big Vin. This one hurts.

So sad to hear of the death of Vinnie Paul. Loved when Pantera did shows with us and in later years Vinnie was always front and center at all KISS shows. RIP and condolences to his family. https://t.co/DaQREBNVW7
