🎧 Two Billy Strings Covers
Back in 2oO6, I moved in with one of my friends from “The Pond.” In between working and driving a truck, I still made time to perform here and there. Occasionally, I’d take time off to do music festivals and other things.
I met Sterling Winfield in those days. My friend introduced me to him. He’s a record producer and was heavily involved with Pantera back in the day. He was actually best friends with Dimebag Darrell.
We were hanging out at a little local bar together in Dallas. He bought me a “black-toothed grin,” which was Dime’s signature drink. He was telling me all these different stories that were just so cool. Then, right in the middle of one of them, he got a phone call. It was a short call, and when he hung up, he said to me…
“Sorry about that. It was Madonna’s guitar player asking if I knew a good guitar tech he could use for an upcoming concert.”
He resumed his story… He was telling me that Dime used to have this toy guitar that he would sit around playing on the tour bus, just goofing off. If I’m not mistaken, he said it was a plastic Spider-Man guitar for kids.
This just blew me away because my nephew had the same toy guitar, and I would often sit around and play that thing myself. I don’t know… that story really stuck with me.
Sterling went on to tell me more great stories about Dime. It was very cool getting to hear them firsthand from someone who knew him so well.
