After 20 plus years of paying tribute to one of the greatest Metal bands ever we have decided to end the run with Cemetery Gatez. There comes a time for all great things to come to an end and we feel the time is right. A lot of things have changed and we want to ride out strong and leave a great legacy as we take our final bow. For the past 20 years we have had the honor and privilege of playing the music of Pantera and bringing it to the fans. We have also had the honor of playing with some great bands and playing at some great venues. During this time, we have also had the opportunity to work with many of the best club owners, promoters and photographers that share our love of Pantera.

Over the years there have been many great musicians who have helped us keep the Pantera legacy alive. We want to give a shout out to our extended bothers that have shared the stage in Cemetery Gatez. Thanks for being part of the family and adding your talents in helping us share the music of Pantera.

We also have played a lot of great venues over the years but a few have a special place with us and have always supported what we do.

POP’s Nightclub – Sauget, IL 
Ribco - Rock Island, IL 
The Castle Theatre – Bloomington, IL

Thank you for all the support and allowing us to have some incredible shows. Please keep supporting these and all the venues so they will keep bringing metal shows to the masses.

And to the fans, there is no words big enough to say THANK YOU!!! for all the support you have given us all these years. If not for your continued love for us and the music of Pantera we would not have been able to keep this going as long as we did. You are the real heart and soul of metal and we will forever be grateful for each and every one of you. We will never forget you!

Although we will be going our separate ways we have shared a brotherhood of highs and lows that many will never know. We have lived through some great times and some very sad times that has formed a bond few get to share. Although you won't see us performing as Cemetery Gatez any longer, we will still be taking the stage in other projects.... so to all that supported us THANK YOU!!! and keep supporting live music and the venues that support live music.. turn up some Pantera and Getcha’ Pull!
