ZAKK WYLDE Talks Joining PANTERA - "It Wasn't A Matter Of If I'll Do It; It's When I'll Do It" (Video)

On the latest installment of Lipps Service, guitar legend Zakk Wylde discusses his current role as the guitarist for Pantera's reunion tour, as well as his early days in Ozzy Osbourne's band. Zakk shares several stories about his time touring with Ozzy, Randy Rhoads, and others. He also talks about his journey as a guitarist, and his recent releases with the Black Label Society and Zakk Sabbath. Zakk also reflects on his late friend, Dimebag Darrell, and what it's like to pay homage to him while performing during Pantera's reunion tour. 

The episode closes with some of Zakk’s Top 5s, including his Top 5 metal riffs, and Top 5 underrated guitarists.

On joining Pantera:

Zakk: "Rob Halford (said) 'Hey zakk, it's a really beautiful thing, what you guys are doing,' and I told him, 'It wasn't a matter of if I'll do it, it's when I'll do it.' It's like if your Mom and Dad asked you to go home because they needed you at the house for something, you go home. You do the right thing. I'm honouring Dime (Dinebag Darrell)."

Pantera have announced Child Bite and King Parrot as the openers for their upcoming EU/UK tour with special guests, Power Trip.
