Shots from the Pantera show in Austin TX on Sept. 2, 2025. It was a game time decision for me as I finally got a deal on some tickets that afternoon. The show and the weather was much better than the last time Phil and Co. rolled through Austin. We weren't dying from heat exhaustion this time. I could tell that the band has a few years of touring under their belts and are much more comfortable playing this music with each other. Phil sounded 10X better than last time, Zakk did a solid job, Rex and Charlie kept that rhythm steady all night. They played a few new tracks this time around like "Hellbound, Strength Beyond Strength, Goddamn Electric, 10's (🤘🤘)" and "I'll Cast A Shadow". The rest of the setlist was about the same as the first time they came around. The crowd was into it making plenty of noise and the sound was really good. It was good to hear all these heavy songs over that PA again and it just reminded me of how badass Pantera was in their prime when the brothers were still alive and I'm glad I got to see them as many times that I did. You can tell Volume 11 was pretty far away from the stage but I hope you metalheads enjoy the photo dump.
Stay Heavy Headbangers!!!
🤘🤘
