I don't know if the whole story gets better or worse LOL

Now Portnoy does not have a band.  DT are making such a big secret who their new drummer is is almost childish and annoying.

He was always just a session member anyway. Nobody expected him to be a permanent replacement for The Rev.

Portnoy's tone in the message kind of indicates that he'd started to wish for a longer relationship, but from the beginning this was always the stated intent. No surprises and no drama.

Maybe he ends up in Fates Warning - they've talked about releasing another album anyway. [wishful thinking, I know.... but if Mark Zonder's not interested then...]

Supposedly DT already has a drummer chosen, but they still haven't announced it.

Fates Warning would be cool - but very wishful thinking IMO. Wink

(especially if Kevin Moore is involved) Tongue

Yeah I don't have any Fates Warning stuff but if Portnoy joins, I will have plenty of reason to get some.

You have plenty of reason to get some anyway. WinkTongue

I'd get this Perfect Symmetry if I were you, Brian. Essential early progressive metal. Thumbs Up
