Fun Went Away From Pantera For Vinnie Paul (A Top Story)

. On Monday Fun Went Away From Pantera For Vinnie Paul was a top story. Here is the recap: (Classic Rock) Vinnie Paul says he is happier with how Hellyeah is run as a band as opposed to Pantera - which he says became more like a business. The drummer says the fun of being in a group is eradicated by the business aspect, but adds that supergroup Hellyeah hasn't yet reached that stage.

Vinnie tells Metal-Rules: "You know, it's a good legacy to have but people do have to realise that that was then and this is now. A lot of people get hung up on living in the past and I'm not doing that. I'm living for today and for tomorrow.

"What I did back then was amazing, it was great and I'm hoping to achieve that again with this. It's a much different day and age, it's more difficult and harder, but I'm willing to do it.

"When you're in a band like Mudvayne or Pantera, they turn into a business after a while and the fun goes away from it because it's a lot of f***ing work."
