Performers Who Died In Front Of An Audience

Whoever says "well, at least they died doing what they loved!" when a performer dies on stage clearly doesn't get why that would suck- because all of your accomplishments in life are overshadowed by the way you died. 'Dimebag' Darrell Abbott was one hell of a guitar player and a heavy metal god thanks to his role in Pantera, and in 2004 he was set to become an even bigger star with the debut of his post-Pantera band Damageplan at the Alrosa Villa club in Columbus, Ohio.
