Pantera have been confirmed for the 2023 edition of the annual ‘Rock Fest‘ in Cadott, WI. Next year’s edition of the festival will be held July 13th-15th with a full lineup announcement still pending. At present, Pantera‘s exact performance date is still TBA, per the festival’s organizers.
The acclaimed groove metal greats returned to the stage earlier this month for their first live shows in over twenty years. Vocalist Phil Anselmo and bassist/vocalist Rex Brown are leading the charge of this new live reunion/celebration, while guitarist Zakk Wylde (Ozzy Osbourne, Black Label Society) and drummer Charlie Benante (Anthrax) had been brought into the fold as live replacements.
The estates of both the band’s late duo of “Dimebag” Darrell Abbott and Vinnie Paul Abbott have given Anselmo and Brown their blessing to continue touring under the Pantera name. While Brown is currently sidelined with an undisclosed health issue, Derek Engemann (Philip H Anselmo And The Illegals, ex-Cattle Decapitation) has been filling in.
