101%PANTERA Announces U.K. DIMEBAG Memorial Tour
101%PANTERA, the U.K.-based PANTERA tribute act featuring VOODOO SIX guitarist Chris Jones, will embark on a special memorial tour through the month of December. Each year has a different twist, and the band has announced that this year they will be performing the entire "Cowboys From Hell" album which was released 20 years ago. They will then finish off with a short best-of set from PANTERA's remaining four albums.
Formed in 2007, 101%PANTERA has been ripping it up all over the U.K. to great acclaim. With the goal of recreating the brutal live energy of a PANTERA show, along the way they have won the support of Dean Guitars in the U.K., with Jones now an endorsee and product demonstrator for the popular guitar manufacturer that built the guitars for the late PANTERA guitarist.
