MP now on Twitter

Hey Gang,
 
Since I keep my Facebook only for my real friends and family (although I do keep most of my wall visible), I decided to finally take the plunge and open a Twitter account that I will keep wide open for the fans...

I really hope MP doesn't get into battles with the people who will undoubtedly write nasty things to him.

Why do you think that?
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

I don't know, he might just write another song about it, in the style of As I Am and Never Enough :D

As I Am's lyrics were written by John Petrucci and they aren't really directed at the DT fanbase.

Yep. I think the only party in the MP/DT situation that hasn't moved on is DTF.

As another member said, it's in the same spirit about getting angry towards someone and writing a song because of it. I knew that (and was a little worried that would be the response ;D).

I never answered this.

Because I think Portnoy knows enough about the internet and the massive convulsing pile of bullshit that clings onto it's leg.

But he does so on every album's release.

If Chileans actually gave him flak for that, they are morons.  Anyone with a brain who values their life would want to get the hell out an area that just had a major earthquake and tons of almost equally scary aftershocks.  Heck, most bands woulda got the hell out of there and not played the freaking show, so get real, peeps.

Exactly. If there was some major quake in LA while DT was in town, I wouldn't blame them at all for wanting the fuck out of there.

Pretty much. It was a bit insensitive to say something like that in the first place.
